Grin. if he was a bit more thoughtful he would have got a pack of 5 mighty bars from lidl. Selfish

30k on car/ 40p on mars bar... I don't know which to post on first! ;)

One peanut? One?! Well, there you have it. If I don't feed my husband at least two peanuts he goes out and buys a Twix. Just like that.

See, it is all your fault. You ... you ... peanut head. Angry

Honeydragon · 28/01/2012 10:51

yadnbu! Does he not know that he could've got 6 Cadbury's Creme Eggs at Waitrose, 25 pence per egg.

False economising, you will be living in a box by Tuesday.

My front porch is on fire.
We don't have a front porch but if we did it would be on fire.

And don't YOU tell ME what to feed my own husband you hussy!
You Chris Moyles fan.
You Daily Mail reader and contributor.
You sausage roll eater.

Mumsnet is so evil these days. You write on little post expecting sisterhood and sympathy and instead you get torn apart by these, these nincompoops

I have three favourite words this week. nincompoops, falafeloflololol, and gauche.

TheRhubarb · 28/01/2012 10:58

fuckers!

Pugnacious cockers (for Quint)

A bar of chocolate costs about a quid round here

Now that's emotional abuse

Florieinaweddingdress · 28/01/2012 10:58

My money's on him hollowing it out and sticking his dick in it.

Midlife crisis penis extension.

PosieParker · 28/01/2012 10:59

Is this a specific piss take?

TheRhubarb · 28/01/2012 11:00

well I ain't sucking on his chocolate nob even if it does have a caramel centre.

Posie, this is my life. Welcome.

Don't think so Posie. I was a bit uncomfortable at first because I thought it might be undermining the thread about the £30,000 car (in which the OP was justifiably pissed off), but that's clearly not how it's played out IMO so I joined in. I'm treating it as a bit of light-hearted fun after all the serious threads of the last two days. That's my take, anyway. Smile

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 28/01/2012 11:06

40p for a Mars Bar FFS.
I always manage a BOGOF when I shop. One in my basket, one slipped down the front of my voluminous hareem pant jogging bottoms.
Works well with Curly Wurleys.
Less good with frozen turkeys IMO.

TheRhubarb · 28/01/2012 11:06

Course it could be a minty fresh centre.
But I still ain't sucking it.

Safer than a condom however and cheaper at the price!

TheVermiciousKnid · 28/01/2012 11:09

I thought you had flounced? Hmm

MigratingCoconuts · 28/01/2012 11:10

trust issues! leave him, now!

TheRhubarb · 28/01/2012 11:11

Yeah well no-body noticed.

Right, this time bloody well notice. It's hard work doing all this flouncing you know.

FLOUNCE you cocking nobby crackers! AND I AIN'T NEVER COMIN' BACK
Largely because I'm hungry and apparently have a dead badger to eat.

OP posts:
MigratingCoconuts · 28/01/2012 11:11

ps...couldn't be bothered to read anyone else's posts.

TheRhubarb · 28/01/2012 11:11

Not to mention a chocolate nob to munch on.
With a gooey, minty centre.

Yum.

he should have got titan bars from aldi (mars rip off)

Florieinaweddingdress · 28/01/2012 11:17

Oh now you've had a good look at it, you think it's a NICE chocolate penis extension?

Good luck licking up the chocolate drips!

I thought we were in this rage together.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 28/01/2012 11:18

What about Whispa? They are all air. Not as much as Aero admitedly, but Wispa are bland>
Aero's air tastes choclatey.

cocolepew · 28/01/2012 11:19

I think you should hide your passport and start moving your pennies into a bottle he can't touch.

Keep updating op.
