On the site! I would have thought the profile here wasn't quite what they were after. Mind you with some of the spelling we see sometimes, maybe it is.

Shocking.
 
It's been here for months...

But at a loss to understand your comment about

Perhaps he's trying to make a connection between the two somewhere, but IMO you shouldn't really try and tar everyone with the same brush.
 
Maybe I'm being a bit of a snob, but the number of times I've seen something like 'there' instead of 'their' makes me wonder.
 
A 'bit' of a snob? Joel, leave it please

Maybe.

Could be some people suffer from word blindness/dyslexia.

It still does not mean they shop at DFS or you need to be dyslexic to shop there.
 
From the executive lounge to a higher plane in one step, Joel? How do the rest of us look from up there? Like ants...?

Makes you feel sort of humble in a way really.
 
Don't worry Al, it's not unusual around here

As for DFS advertising on this site, we all need somewhere to sit when listening to our systems. Or maybe this thread has nothing to do with DFS. In that case, I'm with Al.
 
Im maybe wrong but I get the impression he meant that people who shop at DFS are not the type of people who would use this forum. The bit about the spelling implies that people who shop at DFS are uneducated. Obviously forum members are all way too middle class, well educated and know their Claret from their Beaujolais to shop in such a place and buy sofas from The Conran Shop.

I would certainly never stoop so low as to buy from DFS (but then my dad and brother both run an independent upholstery business!)
 
Can someone please explain to me what is wrong with DFS? It appears some members clearly think that they are above everyone else!

And no I didnt buy my sofa from DFS!

Their adverts are a bit annoying, but otherwise I have no problem with them ( and I didn't buy my sofa from them either)

Ask the guy who owns it because AFAIAA he is trying to offload it.
 
The sofa pictured below is from DFS, I have been having a lovely nap on it whilst listening to my Spotify Mellow playlist. I drive a Jaguar, was privately educated and have a Desmond from one of the ancients. I also know no shame and will talk to anyone who is friendly to me. That is a true sign of class, as opposed to new money.

quite right. are dfs run by dyslexic criminals? i don't understand the "stoop so low" comment.

joel was just being joel, i think. i can't remember where our sofa came from, but it could easily have been dfs or similar.

i was also privately educated, but that was due to the size of my brain and a scholarship!

i think it's shrunk since then though....
 
Blimey. Seems like I'm the only one round here who didn't go to a private school.
 
PJPro:Blimey. Seems like I'm the only one round here who didn't go to a private school.

No fur here. Was simply commenting that I was surprised at their targeting. And I was feeling very grumpy at the time if I remember.

Apologies.
 
I am sorry too for being rude. I hope they bring back the ladies in their underwear adverts, we obviously need new pants to go under our furs. Now that is clever targetting.

You're not, i assure you.

But i do have a Desmond. Not from one of the ancients tho. And not in english language, as you can see.
