Driving at 40 miles an hour in a 60 mph zone makes you a dangerous driver. If you don't know the ruls of the road, don't drive.

Ok, here goes...

I don't expect every restaurant or any kind of venue to be an appropriate place for my kids.

Babies should not be allowed on planes.

Fat or ugly bridesmaids ruin your wedding photos -

People who are having their first child become incredibly self absorbed.

'' unprotected sex can severely damage the countryside''

I shall take that as my slogan!

After spending the morning with my dd at preschool and feeling a little 'sniffy' at some of the children I have come to the conclusion that all three year olds just seem inherently chavvy! They all look slightly grubby & snotty , and all waffle on about pointless crap.

It's pathetic to care too much about what your young children wear, who are you trying to impress?

No body likes a pedant.

Spending upwards of 10k on your wedding which lasts less than a day is idiotic.

Some people are too thick to vote or sit on a jury.

People who keep rubbing your face in their gorgeous life and their fab job and their happy marriage, and high achieving children and beautiful house are usually covering something up.

When someone says 'you look a bit like Audrey Hepburn/Angelie Jolie/Natalie Portman' they are usually silently adding 'but not nearly, nearly as good looking.'

Don't know if this has already been said but some people ought not to be allowed to have children.

Don't you mean "nobody"? (Sorry, couldn't resist Wink)

Lots of very clever people like soaps/read heat. Lots of not so clever people avoid them like the plague to prove how 'clever' they are.

Tyra, I was kidding about Chiquito's Wink (seriously need some kind of sarcasm smiley as my sarcasm has been mistaken for sincerity LOADS on this threadBlush)

Boden. You're dressing like an overgrown five year-old. You don't look "fun" or "hotch-potch" you look like an idiot. A big, gurning idiot. And you paid a considerable amount to look like it. Honestly, are there no ends to your idiocy?

TrillianAstra · 08/02/2011 11:25

Lots of people of all levels of cleverness avoid soaps because they are crap, not to prove a point.

bupcakesandcunting · 08/02/2011 11:25

I love Heat/Closer/Now. Total escapism and brainless reading. DH brands me a moron for buying it. I have caught him locked in the bathroom reading it.

Ha ha leQueen - yes, it's a difficult balance. You don't want your bridesmaids to be better looking than you, but at the same time don't want to have to air brush them out due to their unattractiveness - plainess is the key to a good bridesmaid. ( I choose three 5 year olds to avoid this problem )

MardyBra · 08/02/2011 11:30

"I have caught him locked in the bathroom reading it."

How can you catch him in a locked bathroom? (Still being a pedant to annoy Bumperlicious).

People who denounce skinny jeans/leggings as looking terrible on grown women need to step away from the bootcut jeans. You can wear jeggings under a nice dress/long top with boots and NOT be a size 8 and still look stylish. I wear them and people say nice things about my dress sense a lot. Get with the times and learn to make fashion work for you instead of relying on the Next Directory.
