Pretentious affectations

[cheb]

I'll only use foreign reusable shopping bags in the UK. I doubt anyone notices but I think it makes me look well traveled and cosmopolitan.

What are yours?

[Sadlonelygit]

Wouldn't you just die without Mahler

[Yorick]

I generally only sup beer brewed on the islands. Nice smugness

[Cousin Jack]

I don't do pretentious, I am actually better than you.

[Noggin]

I've been using bags I bought in UK supermarkets when shopping over here! But really only because the designs are generally more fun - lots of people have asked me where I got the Star Wars bags and even the unicorn design one

Aside from that I don't do pretentious - I hate VW and love TLs FFS

I often see an Italian neighbour whilst out. I always greet him in Italian and then look around to see who has clocked that I'm exotic and wind-swept.

The conversation invariably switches to English due to my poor language skills after three or four sentences, but the passer-by are gone by then, their dreary lives made a little brighter by forrin banter.

I like to use a Lidl bag in Waitrose

[ChrisW]

Oh lord, yes, same here. The car boots are stuffed with Jodofi & Carrefour bags... It's more for the sentimentality though, honest.

Actually, I would darling

When I'm next on the big island I'll doff mine back.

When walking our mongrel dog in the posher bits of town and when people ask what he is I tell em he's a long legged, long nosed, long tailed Jack Russell.

Dogue de Bordeaux/Staffy father, German Shepherd/Saluki mother but we bought him from a place just past Barnard Castle so I sometimes call him a Barnard Castle Partial Sighthound as well.
Technically it's trus(ish) cos Salukis are sighthounds and he"s 1/4 Saluki but really I'm just taking the piss out of the Domenic Cummings eyetest fiasco.

[Bigjawa]

Since I got Misty's DNA checked. (Rottweiler/Doberman with some added Cane Corso! ) I've taken to calling her a Tyrolean Molosser.

When Wilko's been especially good he's called by his Pedigree name - Surfin' Blueberry Muffin...

Auchan, Action or super U for the win.

But does that count as more or less pretentious, as you have to know.
