AlienSlof Posted yesterday at 09:22 AM Share Posted yesterday at 09:22 AM Actually. I wondered about that too. I've seen less offensive (and a few I didn't get the reference for) getting a swift banhammer up the bum, but this one is just slapped on the wrist. This one made me shake my head: 'Mind your Ps and Qs' is an old-fashioned comment about having good manners. My mum used to drill this into me all the time as a kid. This person has none despite the name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought it was related to typesetting on a manual printing press, as the lower case version of those letters could be easy to mix up.
