THERE’S nothing more relaxing than sitting in front of the television telling every smug, supercilious twat on there to go and fuck themselves. But who are you saying it to, and why?
Fuck off
Standard response to any of the presenters’ cheery statements on any daytime TV show, considered too lightweight for evening use. Examples include ‘Let’s see which team comes out ahead in the auction,’ ‘Fuck off,’ or ‘Dictionary Corner, could they do better than six?’ ‘Fuck off.’
Fuck off he/she is
Employed when watching a reality TV show on which a participant has announced their intention to do something ridiculously ambitious, ie make lobster thermidor on Come Dine With Me, make up with an ex-partner on Made In Chelsea, or project manage their build on Grand Designs.
The entire lot of you can fuck off
Previously used for sport or quiz shows, in these turbulent political times exclusively used when watching the news and discovering that politicians have indulged in yet more bullshit that gets nothing any fucking further on than yesterday.
You fuck off, you fuck off, and you fuck off
If you’re issuing individual invitations to fuck off to several different parties none of whom are in the same room, you’re probably watching Gogglebox. If only your witty rejoinders could be shown on Gogglebox, then watched by the people on Gogglebox.
Fuck all the way off
A demand of this nature is usually issued when the implausible killer is revealed in a supposedly prestige murder drama such as Baptiste, Luther or Line of Duty. Usually followed by ‘Still fuck off’ after 10 minutes of exposition explaining why the killer was in two places at once when it had been established they could not be.
Get to fuck
Late-night riposte to suggestion by continuity announcers that viewers might wish to stay up to see a Hollywood film from the 1990s. And so to bed, ready for another day.
