wee quinnie Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Giles Brandreth really makes me laugh. (How embarrassing).I also really like Top of the Pops 2 - but it doesn't seem to be on anymore.Back in my meat/fish eating days - I really liked scampi and chips.

Horsebox Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I don't consider any of the things I like as being "naff". In fact I'm not sure I even know what naff means...

david_carnell Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I guess naff is entirely subjective but most would agree that it's anything deemed "un-cool" by the meedja or commentariat. Anything a bit common. Also anything ludicrously ostentatious or poncey. I know more adjectives doesn;t necessarily help but I don't think this was meant as a serious thread to discuss semantics.
