to think that this is a strange sort of insult?

[ChampagneTrulyReigns]

Met up with some moms from school over the holiday.

There's a new teacher at school, who I think has been great for DD3 (Year 3), he's really enthusiastic and inspirational. He's also the only male teacher at the school .

One of the moms obviously has issues with how he's been with her DD, and came out with the comment "he looks like the sort of guy who hides his PIN number when he's keying it in".

Is this actually an insult?

And what is she actually suggesting by this?

As in my own ds ....loks like the kind of girl to have a back up retainer??

guy not girl grrr

Not bad folks.

Looks like he'd never double dip.

Double dip deffo sounds like a euphemism though.

Yep might it a bit too rock and roll for Captain Sensible.

Looks like he never leaves the fridge door open.

Looks like he always meets deadlines.

Looks like he'd never employ a rogue tradesman.

Looks like he always wears a seatbelt.

Looks like the sort of guy who wouldn't look up 'double dip' on urban dictionary.

He looks like he would never Google Dragon Butter...

Looks like the sort of guy who'd have appropriate filters on his internet searches thereby rendering him unable to investigate double dip's double meaning.

Some good ones on here.

Looks like the sort of guy who ensures he has clicked his pen lid back on properly.

Looks like the sort of guy who always has a pen when you need one.

Is he the kind that wouldn't spell mum as mom.

Unless he ws in the USA of course.

Naah - we're Midlands-based.

He'll spell it proper-loike.

Looks like the sort of guy who knows the difference between jealousy and envy.

And he always spells there/their/they're correctly.

He looks like a guy who washes out milk bottle

He looks like a guy who puts a fold at the end of the Sellotape

He looks like a guy who puts his CDs back in the right cases

He looks like a guy who recycles

I use this all the time - "that says more about him/her than cash ever can". No idea what it means, but I like it. You need to say it darkly. I think its along the lines of "s/he's no better than s/he ought to be".

Bumperlicious - you just described DH.

(Except for the recycles bit. Sadly.)

He looks like a guy who has his bus pass in a little plastic wallet.

Looks like a guy who uses bicycle clips

Looks like a guy who always has a hanky

Looks like a guy who uses mouthwash

Looks like a guy who writes and sends thank-you cards.

Looks like a guy who likes to vacuum.

I recently learnt the difference between jealousy and envy, actually. I keep working them into conversation, now. Or at least, I do, when other people are willing to talk to me. Which they no longer are... Can't think why...

Anyway.

He looks like someone who has enough money to worry that someone could steal it.

He looks like someone who takes his library books in on time.

He looks like someone who doesn't leave his Christmas shopping until Christmas Eve.

He never wears odd socks.

This is worrying!

My DH hides his PIN when keying it in.

He also takes the library books back on time, does most of the laundry (separating colours from darks), the vacuuming, washes out bottles, has 4 separate bins in the kitchen for recycling (and a 5th for landfill), puts the fold in Sellotape so I can find the end again & lots of the other things mentioned!

He is also the sort of guy who sorts all the Lego into different boxes for colour & size for DS1.

Not sure the "mom" in the OP would like us very much! However given I hate "PIN number" with a deadly hatred, no great loss :)

Looks like the sort of guy who remembers to lock his doors at night.

Looks like the kind of guy who has house insurance.

Looks like the sort of guy who shuts country gates behind him.

I do all the above! Though I've given up recycling - I'm wild, me

The kind of guy who folds his socks in pairs.

I bet he observes the speed limit.

I bet he polishes his picture frames - and straightens them.

The kind of man who unplugs everything at night.

(I do none of the above! I'm crazy!)

Love this thread.

Looks like the kind of guy to keep his ketchup in the fridge?

The kind of guy who picks up dater his dog.

Nah, I'm not very good at these. I like trillian's at the start of the thread.

Looks like the kind of guy who has different passwords for different accounts.
