I mutter "Fuck you, you spud cunt" to myself when I'm at the end of my tether these days, even if I'm not addressing a wayward potato. It's really quite cathartic. Grin

Anyone else have phrases they've adopted wholesale from here?

It's an invitation not a summons.

It says best before not poisonous after.

No is a complete sentence

Are you on glue

I've been wracking my brains for a bloody brilliant put-down description of a hot tub seen on here. Can anyone remind me what it was?

@SaigonSaigon

Sex Pond

Sex Pond

SaigonSaigon · 03/07/2020 13:49

Cocklodger
Wankbadger

All the polite ones Grin

AnneofbigCleevesage · 03/07/2020 14:23

'bat shit' and 'flying monkeys'

Great descriptive phrases!

CuppaZa · 03/07/2020 14:25

Oh do fuck off dear
Cheeky fucker
Cuntbadger
Cock Womble
Gas lighting
Grey rock

All in all a positive contribution to my already questionable vocabulary Grin

AnneofbigCleevesage · 03/07/2020 14:26

" Eh ?"

Another good one!

CuppaZa · 03/07/2020 14:26

Oh I forgot cocklodger!

CuppaZa · 03/07/2020 14:28

What do you get from this relationship?

Does he have a solid gold cock?

fatandshatteredfairy · 03/07/2020 14:30

It's become a thing in our house when we leave the washing on the line overnight that we say, "oh it's been darked on"

Leave the bastard. Use it everytime a friend complains about any minor partner related inconvenience

Ghostlyglow · 03/07/2020 14:31

Dementors

More specifically it was a chavvy sex pond. @SaigonSaigon Wink I remember it well because of the inherent classism and subsequent discussion thereof.

EatShitForChristmas · 03/07/2020 15:48

Get A Grip

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 03/07/2020 19:27

Not My Circus , Not My Monkeys

DD casts a curled lip look at the neighbours who leave their washing out to get Darked On

It says best before not poisonous after I love this one , my DS is fanatical about use by dates/ best before dates . Often to extreme .

GingerFluffycat · 03/07/2020 19:39

Cheeky Fucker
Naice Ham or other foodstuff
Mansplaining
Penis Beaker
Spoony Fucker
Off you fuck, Cunty Chops.

There's more, I'm sure...worryingly DH uses quite a few now too Blush

Dk13 · 03/07/2020 19:41

The hills are that way --->

Cocklodger

CF

Things like DP and DH, then I realise other people might not know what they stand for

GingerFluffycat · 03/07/2020 19:42

Oh God, I forgot about Darked on and Spider willies!

Can someone explain "Chavvy Sex Pond" - it sounds worthy of a larger audience Grin

AnnaNimmity · 03/07/2020 19:45

Oh lots of phrases annoy me - the ick, Naice Ham, big girl pants etc.

But LTB is good and so is cocklodger.

I also like Dementors, but don't see any in RL - they're all on here I think.
