People seem to be dealing them out as though they were bicuits! They're not!

I thought they were to be used during those times when there was some extreme "Middle Class arsey-ness" going on..or am I wrong?

Can anyone actually tell me what they are for?

Or AIBU to be such a pedant?

The bear is all very well in its way, but I still feel strongly that what this site really needs is an [evil] emoticon - a little grinning devil face, with horns (pitchfork optional).

Fish can't be pregnant - they put eggs into the water and then they get fertilized by swimmy sperm. So no such thing as pregnant because they don't grow babies inside them and don't even have fertilized eggs inside them.

PerArdua! Someone at the meet told me they always thought I was Trillian Ad Astra so I have borrowed an Ad for a bit, but I thought the only Ad was you :)

I dont really understand the bear or the biscuit.

Can we have a "feck off" emoticon?

Please?

becaroodolf · 29/11/2010 22:07

I think MN really needs a devil face and a twat face too.

"Of course, the whole idea of a pregnant goldfish being called a twit, twat or twerp is a joke based on there being no such thing."

They lay eggs. I just wasted 10 minutes googling this only to feel a bit of a twat myself Blush

PerArduaAdNauseum · 29/11/2010 22:09

Trillian - I found your thread - my expectations are much lower than yours Grin

  • when is the bear going to fuck off out of it
  • where is the ARSE emoticon

oi getorf,. I requested the bear :(

Ilythia · 29/11/2010 22:26

reported you getorf...

trill, what did you write?!

stealth, you may have requested it in a moment of madness but they could have said no, like they have done to every other emoticon request for fricking ever

Anniegetyourgun · 29/11/2010 22:26

Trillian, you are WRONG about the fish. Google livebearing fish. Your common or garden (or rather pet shop) guppy gives birth to live young, for example, as do some species of shark. Not to mention seahorses, which are fertilised and carried in the male's abdomen - very civilised!

iTigress · 29/11/2010 22:27

It's something to offer up at a poster who is clearly barmy.

As in yes, YANBU to iron your DH's pants Bear
