Ignore them. Simples

Or locked in a room with 100 rabid meerkats.

I wanted to call this DC Alexander if we were having a boy until step-FIL realised that stupid fecking meerkat was called that. He kept asking if that would mean my baby would be "simples" and would his lullaby be "compaaaaare the meerkat dot com". I was tempted to insert knitting needles into him whilst smiling and chanting "simples? Simples!?". Probably good that we're having a girl but he's still ruined the name for me for any future boys.

I fucking hate meerkats.

meh, meerkats come and meerkats go but twats are a lifeliong agony.

YANBU! And people who say "wind your neck in" ... yuk (shudders) ... lets banish them too!

YANBU

Though I think part of the problem is that it usually follows an inane, useless comment or suggestion which the poster thinks is smart. Grrrrrrr.

i dunno but it always makes me wonder if they are flooding the place with meerkats trafficked into the burgeoning European meerkat sex trade

Not as bad as "End of."

Or "As if - "

eg. "as if I've just put the washing out in the rain!!"

"as if I've just put the milk in the freezer!"

"as if I'm an irritating bastard!!"

MissTinaTeaspoon · 21/06/2011 12:42

'Calm down dear, it's only a commercial'
is just as annoying
