The My BroadBand dictionary

Small - insignificant; unimportant. 19 cents
Big - Very small amount 20 cents
Massive - Something considerable in increase ie 80 cents

HUUUUGE! This petrol price thing has actually become a MyBB running joke now hasn't it?

I propose a MyBB petrol price increase/decrease scale which links specific words to price fluctuations in either direction (e.g. Hugest 20-50 cents).

This way MyBB'ers know before hand what to expect when reading the article. Must be honest I'm always left deflated when the words used don't quite match the figures being represented ;)

Happy Friday people.

I can think of other things where people think it's BIG or HUGE, but it's actually on the small side and only leads to disappointment. Much like this article.

So quizzed my wife this morning after seeing my daily MyBB email. I asked her what she associates a BIG petrol price drop with, she said R1. We are way off people. She is the minister finances so I wasn’t going argue..
