Call me a grumpy old fart if you like, but is it only me who finds it intensely irritating to see the word “enjoy” whenever someone posts a photograph? Is this an order? It is as bad as those people on the radio who say “listen” every time they start talking. The fact that they are making a noise with their larynx means that we cannot help but “listen.” Enjoyment is a matter of personal preference, not an edict.
OK, I’ll crawl away and get back under my stone now.

Seems as if we all have too much time on our hands to worry about the word “enjoy” If you dont like the word then dont bother looking!!!!!!!!!!

I live at Moggy’s house – and look a lot like him too! 😉
A quick aside… one of our security types had a run-in with a bolshy student here. Now being a security type dude he’s a big ******. Kept his cool despite much provocation. He just went nose to nose and said very calmly… “I hope you’re in BUPA son….”
Dispute resolved.

I beg forgiveness for using the word enjoy
I thought this was more of a place where people could enjoy and share aircraft pictures and information. Not pick at the words that are used. Evidently there are grammer and cliche Nazis here. I don’t need to be here. 😡

You may be enjoying it now but just remember, someone, somewhere is tired of putting up with her nonsense.

3. I prefer the phrase “Contrary Old Cuss” to “Grumpy Old Fart/Ba$tard”.
..perhaps “miserable bar steward” in this case! :rolleyes:
