My kids (17 and 16) are delightfully non-PC (blame the father), and often use the sympathy phrase. However, I have to warn them to be very careful where and to whom they display their highly lavatorial style of humour, such are these times of permanently being ‘offended’.
Does anyone still use ‘running goat f...’ to describe a cock-up?
(I didn’t say ‘type of dog’!)
