I could overhear comments about my tea drinking. I will drink cold herbal tea rather than throw it away. Apparently it's skanky.Got me thinking what's low standards.? For me it is Wearing dirty clothes or shoes. Poor hygiene especially dirty hands nails or teeth. What are yours that give you the ick.

Judging other people on pointless matters is the epitome of skanky behaviour.

IKEA furniture and using Dulux paint skanky behaviour! 😂

Ginmonkeyagain · 19/04/2025 13:18

Looks nervously at my entire Dulux painted flat and IKEA blanket box.

‘Er down at number 17 what doesn’t scrub her front step before 8 am and shows a bit too much leg when she does.

I think using the word 'Skanky' - such an ugly word.

I thought it wasn't used anymore. Calling someone a 'skank' is so judgy.

Napface · 19/04/2025 13:03

I have farrow and ball paint but ikea furniture 🤔I'm not sure where that puts me, skank with aspirations maybe?

Wayne and Waynetta are the king and queen of skank

I assume you're one of those who insists that you only need one coat of Farrow and Ball because you can't afford two tins.

Show quote history

No one can have a single coat. It’s like water. It’s absolutely garbage paint, and is so, so easily damaged. I find it hilarious when it’s mentioned on house listings.

Loads of things messy cluttered home not washing in the morning or at night slurping drinks sleeping in the same bedding for weeks a time i have to have clean bedding every 3 days.
Spitting littering moveing men in within months.
Shoes on in doors.
The list goes on.

Every three days 😂

couples asking for money as a wedding present….if you can’t afford a wedding without asking guests to pay for it then I ain’t coming….or maybe I’ll just ignore the request (heaven forbid it’s written as a poem) and buy them a toaster (Asda own make obvs!).

ClairDeLaLune · 19/04/2025 12:40

People who look down on others who may be too poor or too depressed to have clean things.

How does one tell the difference between cheap Dulux paint and expensive paint when it’s actually on a wall?

Because the homeowner says Farrow and Ball at every opportunity.

@80smonster Damn.
I have just painted my kitchen in Dulux paint. Thought I was posh not using DIY store own brand, that's me told I guess 🤣
For me skanky is:
People going out in public un-showered and smelling.
Dirty/poorly maintained home. Especially if children are living in it.
Kids in really cheap shoes when the mum has her hair/nails/botox done.

Mumofyellows · 19/04/2025 12:21

I've just re read that and realised I am skanky. I have silicone paint and some Ikea furniture 🤪

How would you know what paint someone has?
Except for universal credit, I have all of these items. I am a top 1 percent earner but I also eat supernoodles 😂I have ikea furniture in some rooms becuase it fits the space.
I don't think anyone can afford their children, children will max out whatever budget you have.
Some of the granulated coffees are very nice and I also don't want to spend time making coffee, it's a boring task.

Why is what you earn relevant to this though?

I totally agree with you. There have been so many times that I've made a new friend, really liked them, felt like we've got a lot in common. Then I go to their house and, instantly notice the Dulux paint on their skirting boards and realise what a disgusting skank they really are. It's sickening to think that people like that walk among us.

Do you never make value judgements about anyone or anything? If you don't you are either Mother Theresa or a bot.
Human nature is what it is. No-one is perfect. Very few have poor personal hygiene, or need to pierce a child's ears for poor MH reasons.

I never feel the need to share my judgements to thousands of people online no

Mumofyellows · 19/04/2025 12:05

Cold herbal tea is actually nice! I prefer it cooler, and I drink a lot of herbal tea.

Skanky to me is...
Spitting
Excessive sniffing without blowing your nose
Leaving dog shit ( I have dogs- love them just hate people leaving it giving dog owners a bad name)
Iceland
Chucking fag ends on the floor
Vapers blowing it down the street so you get caught in a candy floss waft
Littering
Fly tipping
Screaming at your kids
Wearing dressing gowns in public
Hanging out of your front door smoking in your PJs
