Where's your badge? You could be anybody.

Ask me about any you don't understand. Just don't pick the one I don't know.

Don't worry - you can ask me about that one.  ;D
I apologise, in advance.

I have this strange image of me being teacher to a lot of naughty and cheeky ten-year-olds.

Let's start talking about football again.

I am so nervous. Wolves go into the second-leg of the play-offs a goal down. They're away at local rivals, West Brom.
Nostalgia is not what it used to be. 😟

Why is "second-leg" hyphenated?

No, forget that. What is a "second leg"?

I've decided to ignore this. I've also decided to ignore the Kafka thing.
This sentence says I've decided to ignore both of them.

It's the one before the third leg, and it's hyphenated to help him walk straight. Where have you been all of your life?

We had our dog hyphenated. She didn't walk straight after that.

You wouldn't expect her to, poor thing - she'd need a good half hour at least.
