I think someone laughed at my dinosaur jumper

On my way out of M&S food hall earlier wearing the rather splendid dinosaur jumper Father Christmas brought, and I think I got laughed at by a lady passing me. I could be wrong, but she had previously been walking in silence with a man, looked directly at my chest (where aforementioned dinosaur is proudly displayed) and laughed. One of those slightly derisive, snorty kinds of laugh.

I’m now thinking of making this jumper a sort of M&S uniform, and wearing it every time I go there, in the hope of bumping into her again, and through regular exposure, showing her the joys of dino knitwear.

What do we think? Perhaps I need to up my dinosaur game to be really effective? Dinosaur leggings? Dress? Face paint and matching sound effects?

@DelightfulDinosaurs

I think those of you who are saying you like my jumper are possibly looking at *@Hugasauras* 's post as I didn't put a picture of mine up, but, as a beautiful coincidence, it's the same jumper, just in a different colour!!

Here's mine

@DelightfulDinosaurs absolutely love it. Don’t know what she was laughing at.

If I ever see another woman wearing the SB Dino jumper I will have to stop myself from going over and either high-fiving or asking if she is a fellow MN-er!

@Pythian

I have two Paul Smith dino t-shirts and now, thanks to this thread, I also have a dinosaur shirt (the white one with a black bow) and a lightning bolt jumper. I really wanted the pink layered dinosaur scene jumper too but unfortunately it was sold out in big lass sizes 😆

@ImInStealthMode

I have this skirt OP. I'll wear it tomorrow, in solidarity.
Absolutely love this skirt. Where is it from please? We are a big dino loving house here and have no shame wearing dino prints out 🦕

Or if she’s hoarding her rights. Dinosaurs are a major feminist trend in the UK at the moment after David Lammy called us ‘rights-hoarding dinosaurs’.

Grin I’ve just ordered the Popsy dinosaur T-shirt, but I think I’m going to have to get one from Lily Maynard’s shop too.

I also bought the glass JL dinosaur Christmas tree ornament with the unfeasibly large arsehole after reading about it on MN😁 in December

I've got a dinosaur dress. I love it!

Mrsmophead · 16/01/2022 19:18

My dress arrived and I finally tried it on... My husband reckons I look as happy as I was in my wedding dress. I love it. @Camomila that's a great tip. Sounds like an excuse to visit the Sugarhill Shop. And Brighton!
