We are all trying to think of DTD variations aren't we.

Tee2072 · 17/07/2012 18:07

Yes.

Pagwatch · 17/07/2012 18:23

[sigh]
we are rubbish.

Tee2072 · 17/07/2012 18:24

Dance the dildo
Dig the dick

Speak for yourself, Pag. Grin

TheEternalOptimist · 17/07/2012 18:26

Dangle The Dongle

Tee2072 · 17/07/2012 18:27

TEO! Shock I think of you as such a lady and above such things!

Diddle the dong

Pagwatch · 17/07/2012 18:28

These are starting to sound like characters from pre school tv.

Tee2072 · 17/07/2012 18:29

What kind of pre-school TV are you watching Pag and where do I sign up?

Pagwatch · 17/07/2012 18:33

I'm sorry. I was thinking of Dill the dog from the herbs. Him or muffin the mule.

Creamtea1 · 17/07/2012 18:35

Baby dancing or BD'ing as they call it makes me very very stabby. As does SWI - completely shit.
This thread is nearly as good as the nauseating FB status thread, excellent work.

CatholicDad · 17/07/2012 18:50

I thought "boak" was onomatopoeic?!?!

Kennyp · 17/07/2012 18:56

I absolute hate "right" before some tedious saga. The "right" to me implies that everyone should be on tenterfuckinghooks about some fairly boring story.

It Gets right on my tits big style.
I also hate boak

But i did use "bleurgh" in a note to ds school explaining why he was off last week ......"he was feeling generally bleurgh". There was no other word to describe his symptoms.

TheEternalOptimist · 17/07/2012 19:01

What is SWI?

I have hidden depths, Tee.

I use 'Right' a lot, Kenny. Sorry. But more in a 'I have gathered my wandering thoughts and am ready to talk about this' kind of way.

ohChristFENTON · 17/07/2012 19:10

SWI is shagging with intent

I like "tenterfuckinghooks". That kind of swearing I love, throwing a bit of a swear in the middle of a phrase or word- absofuckinglutely .

Tee2072 · 17/07/2012 19:25

Layers, like an onion, LEO? Grin

I use right at the end of posts a lot. As in 'Right, I really must get off MN and figure out where my son might be.' *

*Note: I know where he is. He's in bed.

ShellyBoobs · 17/07/2012 20:45

I fucking detest 'ewww', 'eewwww' and any other number of Es followed by any number of fucking Ws being used to express a level of disgust.

It reminds me vividly of Britney cunting Spears on some chat show interjecting her pathetic blubbing with it while talking about her break up with J Timberlake.

(I know it didn't originate on MN but it's the only place I ever see it written.)

BalloonSlayer · 18/07/2012 06:54

I am never sure what to make of EWCM on conception threads. I think it means that "your cervical mucus is like egg white," but I always think it means "cervical mucus that makes you go ewww."

Similarly OMG reminds me of OMD [stuck in the 80s emoticon]. I don't know what I think it must stand for - Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Gark, I suppose.

ElephantsCanRemember · 18/07/2012 06:59

Grin I think that when i see OMG too Balloon!

Moln · 18/07/2012 08:25

How come it is > and not action like in other cyper places? That's what I want to know.

Though I like ::action::

theodorakis · 18/07/2012 10:21

Why can't people just write "husband" or "son"? Is there a tax on keystrokes?

ShoeJunkie · 18/07/2012 14:01

I hate people putting .com after things, bored.com etc.
Makes me stabby

ThisWeekonFancyPuffin · 18/07/2012 15:46

They might write .com but I see .fuckoffyouarenotawebsiteyoucunt

IamtheZombie · 18/07/2012 16:35

bored.com is a great site. If one is bored.

Pagwatch · 18/07/2012 17:15

Conjunctivitis.com is a sight for sore eyes.

NicholasTeakozy · 18/07/2012 17:27

Whenever I see somethingridiculous.com I read the suffix as <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&safe=off&sa=X&biw=1024&bih=639&tbm=isch&prmd=imvnso&tbnid=qF_yvJ252hscQM:&imgrefurl=www.flickr.com/photos/poorusher/2218083169/&docid=6mNAqJTtIcAe5M&imgurl=images.newstatesman.com/resource/33350.jpg&w=300&h=250&ei=e-MGUIOoHYyEhQf6-ZjPBw&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=520&vpy=326&dur=1850&hovh=200&hovw=240&tx=123&ty=194&sig=116150552075259531737&page=1&tbnh=130&tbnw=156&start=0&ndsp=19&ved=1t:429,r:16,s:0,i:138" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Dot Cotton
