I'm not going to go all Honda Accord on this
but you don't need your clubcard to redeem vouchers. And I'm not sure you ever have done.

Can someone explain
the Honda Accord thing for me. It seems to come up a lot and not understanding makes me feel like a 'tard :(

Ta!

It stems from a post back in the mists of time
Involving someone who claimed to run over someone who bullied them at school using their HONDA ACCORD.

The sheer fact that anyone would feel it necessary, if telling a true story, to list the make and model of car they used in an attempted murder, means it has become a synonym for internet lies and aspergers.

I think it's a Meme.
Referring to a stereotpyical user who makes dubious boasts about driving a Honda Accord. This mythical poster will also refer to increasingly unlikely feats, typically involving winning a fight against a famous person (eg. Mr. T, Chuck Norris).

The overall implication of its mention seems to be to imply that the original story-teller is spinning an improbable fantasy tale, in a vain attempt to make themselves appear amazing.

Ah, I missed the comma at first
I was going to say I never knew Chuck was actually his middle name.

They all tell you that you do
And it is specified that you need your clubcard. However, the till monkeys don't always follow this, and the call centre people don't seem to know this.
