put a Blush face when there is nothing embarrasing about their statement.

'Can you find me a top? I'm size 12 Blush'

'Help me to decorate.We just bought a house Blush

'I've got a promotion Blush'

'We had sex last night Blush'

Why??? Do grown up women blush so easily?

I hate smilies, so immature.

twinklytroll · 22/10/2011 14:30

I agree for most of your points.

Although if I had just had a threesome with Bruce Forsyth and Edwin's Currie I would be Blush. So it does depend on the details.

Fiendishlie · 22/10/2011 14:31

arf @'Edwin's Currie. Mine's a tikka masala

I think that posters do not need to use incomplete sentences for their thread titles, thus coaxing you to click on the thread for the big reveal, only to be sorely disappointed at how dull it is Grin.

Fiendishlie · 22/10/2011 14:32

:o

twinklytroll · 22/10/2011 14:33

Sorry blame auto correct. Blush [smileGrin

twinklytroll · 22/10/2011 14:34

I am so immature with my smileys I can't even use them properly.

Pagwatch · 22/10/2011 14:35

So true Bibb.

And it is always dull. It's uncanny. You would think on statistical probability alone there would be a funny/interesting one. But no.

But I am an optimistic. I always click

Pagwatch · 22/10/2011 14:40

I might have done Blush

Grin

......reveal ...is...a bit.

AgentZigzag · 22/10/2011 14:40

lol Blush

EdlessAllenPoe · 22/10/2011 14:40
Hmm

:P

twinklytroll · 22/10/2011 14:40

I would rather someone just came out and said " you utter twat" rather than used the Hmm.

I was once amused to get a Hmm on here whilst being slagged off at the same time on twitter. Why not just say it on the thread.

Pagwatch · 22/10/2011 14:44

Shock @ Hmm and :P

Pagwatch · 22/10/2011 14:45

God me too Twinkly

But then you just say 'oh do fuck off' and you get deleted. But you can Hmm all night and it is allowed.

crazynannawitchbitch · 22/10/2011 14:46

Maybe they're all menopausal Blush = hot flush

HippoPottyMouth · 22/10/2011 14:48

Similarly, I HATE it when people put TMI in the thread title, then you go in and there is no 'I' at all hardly, it'll just be something like "I've got my period (sorry! Blush)", or "I went to the toilet earlier".

I always feel like shouting THAT IS NOT TMI, but then I might look a bit weird. It's not like I actually want to read gory details, I just wander what sort of weird people think its embarassing to admit having used a toilet.

Hahahahaha at crazynanna.

Yy to menopausal. I want to put that on the middle aged women thread

Grin
BOOareHaunting · 22/10/2011 15:00

I use Blush when admitting my own stupidity so not very often! Wink

I use Grin alot and use to use Smile until someone said it was PA.

I use the Hmm in the way maryz described it above but now I know it's hidden meaning I may need to limit it's use!

so how about Wine as it after noon on at Saturday.

TethHearseEnd · 22/10/2011 15:03

I killed a man in cold blood Blush

Pagwatch · 22/10/2011 15:03

Hmm should mean 'hmm, let me think about that' but it was nicked by sarky gits.
Maryz is right it does mean "oh do fuck off you lying twat" now.

I never use it. I post oh do fuck off etc . And get deleted.
