Not a very nice joke is it though telling someone they are sacked, it reminds me of David Brent from the office. ”
it depends on how well they know each other, and how well they could tell it was obviously a joke tho'.
for instance - over the last few weeks my g/f has been trying to book a train ticket to York. trouble is, due to one thing and another (travelling on a Sunday, engineering works, timetable changeover) each time she's been to the station she's been told that they can't yet issue the outward bound ticket.
before her last trip to the station, she said that if it wasn't for the barrier at the kiosk, she'd grab the bloke and throttle the life out of him.
should i be concerned that my g/f in fact suffers from the same repressed violent tendencies that Cameron seems to, or should I just take it she was joking? (although joking about *throttling somebody* wasn't all that funny, I didn't think.)
