This has just popped up on her facebook having been shared by an old school friend.

Can MNers come up with a suitable response?

Please help DD1 with a witty riposte.

What about ‘Your mums must be so proud of you.’

Or

I hope your HR departments aren’t reading this. People have been sacked for less.

Love Dolly's line!

I'd be so disappointed if that were my son.

I think I may have touched a nerve

Please help DD1 with a witty riposte.

Jesus that grammar is a disgrace.

ChopinIn10Minuets · 04/07/2019 17:43

Blimey ginger. Talk about an illiterate rant in reply. Grin I've read it three times and it still makes 'FA' sense.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 04/07/2019 17:44

The only reply to that would be ‘aww bless, did your three year old get a hold of your phone again?’

MyGastIsFlabbered · 04/07/2019 17:45

I couldn't even read the whole thing!

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 04/07/2019 17:46

Can spell misconstrued and gratification but not missed. And in their little head thinks it is some kind of compliment? Dearie me.

BitchPeas · 04/07/2019 17:47

That makes no sense. The spelling and grammar are hideous. Shock

Do people like this really exist?

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 04/07/2019 17:49

You have to read it really slowly, as if you are checking your five year olds homework.

IvanaPee · 04/07/2019 17:51

@gingerandsmall ask him to re-post his response in English. Really get him frothing.

Sagradafamiliar · 04/07/2019 17:54

I'm out of breath reading his reply. And in my mind, I'm backing away verrry slowly.

minou123 · 04/07/2019 17:54

I would post back

"What would make you think the women's England football team would find this meme funny?. In fact, please explain why any woman would find this funny?"

AngeloMysterioso · 04/07/2019 17:57

I don’t think I could be friends with somebody that illiterate.

His reply hurts my eyes.

LadyBrienneofTarth · 04/07/2019 17:57

@minou123 great response

Craftycorvid · 04/07/2019 17:57

How about ‘yes, they’re coming home, and they understand tge offside rule a LOT better than you!’

blackcat86 · 04/07/2019 18:01

I would just reply *missed

mbosnz · 04/07/2019 18:03

I'd be bloody worried lads. They're coming home. And they're well pissed off.

blaaake · 04/07/2019 18:06

I just had an aneurism trying to read that.

yiskasha · 04/07/2019 18:08

I hate when misogynistic men try to make out that the women who call them out are actually the sexist ones.

Happyhusband · 04/07/2019 18:11

Mum's gone to Iceland to show the lions how to play real football.

SandAndSea · 04/07/2019 18:18

I would just reply missed *

^ This.

BitchPeas · 04/07/2019 18:20

blackcats response is perfect.

EnidButton · 04/07/2019 18:20

I genuinely got bad brain fog halfway through trying to read that reply and couldn't finish it. I bet he had to look 'misogynist' up.

LadyBrienneofTarth · 04/07/2019 18:21

What does *missed mean ? 🥴
