If you say 'Am I Bovvered?' you are a moron


If you, YES YOU reading this, use the phrase "Am I bovvered?" in order to appear witty and clever to your friends, family, schoolmates or co-workers you are an idiot.
Sorry for breaking it to you but you are a dribbling, gormless simpleton so devoid of wit or invention you need to repeat an already frustratingly derivative, overused "catchphrase" to convey "how funny you are".
Repeating catchphrases from "The Catherine Tate show" is akin to having a sh!t in the street because you saw a dog do it.
I believe that any show that needs to rely on repitition as it's sole source of humour ("Little Britain", "The Catherine Tate Show" and the latest abomination "Tittybangbang") is about as appealing as cracking my skull open with a plastic ladle. Therefore I choose not to watch them.
However, avoiding the catchphrases is much, much harder. Everywhere I turn people are obnoxiously spouting these lame phrases always at an unnecesarily loud volume while their equally dense companions laugh and repeat the phrase back like a sort of bird call for morons.
Dullards on TV, teenage girls on buses, idiots in the pub, middle aged women...next time I hear one of you saying "Am I bovvered?", I'm going to have to kill you, sorry but you've left me no choice.

PS. Before any of you Tate fans (shudder) reply to this message by typing simply "Am I bovvered?" or any of its offshoots ("Does my face look bovvered" etc), don't. You may as well change your userI.D to Yes_i_am_a_moron_who_cant_think_for_myself and get it over with. It WON'T make you look funny or clever, it WILL expose you as a buffoon.

Thanks for listening, this rant has postponed my aneurysm for at least a couple of days.
