When everyone is ‘super-excited’, Yorkshireman still ‘not bad’.


In a world where everyone is seemingly perpetually ‘super-excited’, a Rotherham man’s  emotional state rarely moves above ‘not bad’ it has emerged.

In 2021 it is possible to be ‘super excited’ about anything including the next episode of Love Island, a new T shirt or a Quinoa and Pomegranate seed salad, but Keith Steadyman, 57, from Rawmarsh  says he doesn’t identify with the term at all.

“I get a bit of a flutter when the Millers score”, he told The Bugle “and I have to admit my heart quickened a pace when they’d got ‘Pint and a Sunday roast for a fiver’ in my local, but that’s about it. I don’t do excited, let alone super-excited. Alreet or not bad is as good as it gets for me, really.”

Professor Terry Towling from East Rotherham University Psychology University says Keith is far from alone “Yorkshiremen don’t really do excited let alone super-excited” he told The Bugle “Anyone who tells you they’re super excited is either American, southern, a woman, a twat or a combination of all four.”

As The Bugle went to press, Keith was telling anyone enquiring after his wellbeing that he could be worse.
