to want posters to stop saying "bleddy"?

[stiflersmom]

it's skin-crawlingly bad, even worse than "fecking" and "farking"

you sound like Prince Philip. That's bad. Stop it.

I'd have bleddy over manshape any day.

I love Fecking. We used it all the time on the west coast of Ireland.

Bleddy Farking and Blardy is a bit how I imagine Enid Blyton characters would swear.

I fucking hate bleddy

it is the only mn-y thing I reeeeeally can't abide

YANBU. Did not realise it was a Midlands things, as written it it just reads as an 'I am posh even when swearing' affectation, the same with blardy. Hate them both. Swear properly or not at all.

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Bibbity

I just did the same

...mind you I think I saw Hully do it the other day. I was horrified

Usualsuspect - I also hate the word 'moist' It makes my teeth itch.

...what I hate about it, I think, is that it's so damn prim

as if bloody is Proper Swearing anyway!

ooooh Sassy- dp loves to tell me food is "moist" in company (usually involving ILs) to make me choke

but then he is a bit of a kent

I'm not fucking prim I never use the word bleddy on MN though..not until this thread anyway

I do hate the word gusset though

Ah, fuck. I wrote 'blardy' today I do it to take the piss out of my horrible posh voice - but there's no way you'd know that.

im not prim, i just save proper swearing for when i am really angry. i have to say, i dislike picking on words that other posters use. i dislike AF, BD and babydust so dont use them. but others are free to.

What the fuck/feck is babydust?

its magical glitter that helps women get pregnant. not as messy as sperm but one of my pet hates.

its magical glitter that helps women get pregnant

Oh dear.

i know a "friend" put some in a sympathy card when i had my ep. fucking glitter. as if that would get me up the duff.

YANBU. Bleddy is extremely twattish.

Lissielou I think glitter is much messier than sperm; at least stray specks of sperm don't cling to your face and distract people, or glimmer at you in the carpet. at putting it in a sympathy card (glitter, not sperm).

but at least sperm has a use i was not pleased though.

I despise all that baby dust shite on here.

YANBU, why can't they say 'bloody'? It sounds like a posh version.

They could always say the 'lovely' words I've seen on here which are surprisingly and frequently used like 'fucking'!

YABU.
Live and let live - if people want to type prissy alternatives, let 'em get on with it! if they have prim and proper work servers that block sweary words, then they haven't much choice anyway.

I agree with whoever said they hate "ass" instead of "arse" though - ass is a completely different sound, word, meaning - it's just Wrong.

(and I hate the word "moist" as well - we had a Biology teacher at school who used to really wrap her gums around the word and draw it out, it was disgusting!)

I love using Feck and Arse and Shite as well as Fuck and Bloody and all manner of swearwords.
My Dad had a great one - blood'n'sludge - I love that.

So long as it's recognisable as some form of a swear word, I don't care what people use.

(although you can stick your "babydust" euphemism where the sun don't shine)
