She is being Akward not thinking about her children at all.

Would naice ham help? Or pom bears?

She isn’t being akward at all. You are just a lazy bawbag who spends all day watching golf reruns on YouTube. And we are all SICK of it. So do one and start looking after the children yourself more often you lazy toe rag.

Very awkward

Alternatively might I suggest a little break in your Mexican holiday home? It might help with the stress?

HelenaWaiting · 31/01/2026 21:09

She called me last night. Like I have fucking time for this. I said call QuirkyGoldHam. Sorry, not sorry.

7catsisnotenough · 31/01/2026 21:06

Isn't it obvious what OP is talking about?! It's just unbelievable that there's such a lack of choice when you want GF/LF/DF/Vegan cheese - I'm devastated 😭

Bison might be on the way.

Washing your hands in a bison would be ever so akward.

Mrs D?
Mrs I?
Mrs FFI?
Mrs C?
Mrs U?
Mrs LTY?!

It’s absolutely appalling. A clear and tragic symptom of the steady erosion of proper British standards and etiquette.

No, it was Friday.

He was upset about the boiled eggs and she wanted a gnome (holding a fishing rod of course). Then the MIL (it's always the MIL!) put her oar in and insisted on linen napkins instead of the crochet ones supplied by the vicar.☹️

The vicar should have learned his lesson from the first wedding, crochet is only appropriate on the 7th of the month.

If she'd settled on Ms rather than Mrs, the vicar wouldn't have had to throw that tortoise over the rubber factory wall. Duh!

Now I have read it all..... how stupid can you be?!?!?
The factory wall wasn't made of rubber at all, it was made of gingerbread with chocolate chips and a drizzle of icing along the top (and perhaps a few hundreds & thousands).
What a numpty.😖

And it wasn't a tortoise, it was a pork pie (don't you just hate that jelly?).
Time to get some glasses.🤓

Off now, time for my aubergine.🍆

5128gap · 31/01/2026 19:57

Oh no. Guess you'll have to think of them instead then. Hopefully she's off living the dream with a rich, hilarious, smart and hot guy who's mad for awkward women.

Luckyingame · 31/01/2026 19:47

Sleep the hangover off first, dear. Then have
a look at the issue again, with a clear head.

Surely she could just buy a chicken and make at least four meals from it.

Grin 🐔

Correction, she could make it last 4 weeks! (16 meals!)

Nourishinghandcream · 31/01/2026 19:22

To be fair, it was a particularly ugly scroting sack.
Hairy as well 🤢

Thrust!!!!!
