Shit - that is twice I have seen

'Wow - just Wow'

as a phrase to be banned.

And I think I have used it.

FunnysInLaJardin · 10/08/2012 13:09

YANBU, I hate the old 'PM' brigade. I missed virtually all of my DC's PM's what with being at work.........

bogeyface · 10/08/2012 13:09

You're my bestestestest friend you arrrrrrrrrre.

I lovvvvvvvvvve yooooo [hic]

bogeyface · 10/08/2012 13:10

I nominate "stabby"

FeakAndWeeble · 10/08/2012 13:13

Anyone who feels the need to write [lighthearted] in their thread title.

It just pisses me off so much that I actually have to go on them just to hide them just so as I don't have to look at them.

If you're so unfunny you need a big sign that says 'Not Serious' whenever you talk about something, you just shouldn't talk.

FunnysInLaJardin · 10/08/2012 13:13

Tell you what though I'd have gladly missed out in PM's in the middle of the night if I'd have had a maternity nurse to do the feeds. By all accounts you are a BAD MOTHER if you'd rather not get up 20 times a night for 2 years..........

Chandon · 10/08/2012 13:17

o.k. it is allowed if used to describe orgasms or boots sex toys.

the rest of you are banned without appeal.

There's loads of phrases I'd ban on here. I can't possibly say what though, for fear of stalker accusations and the like.

Chandon · 10/08/2012 13:19

you can be a silent agent then. PM me the perpetrators details.

Weren't Precious Moments a savoury snack from the 80s?

bogeyface · 10/08/2012 13:23

I thought it was Melting Moments?

bogeyface · 10/08/2012 13:24

So can we have Melting Moments with our PFBs, is that ok?

BatCave · 10/08/2012 13:24

Oh goodness me I used that yesterday, well definitely the word precious anyway, but I was referring to the hour and a half I have child free while DD was napping Grin

Am I banned?

StealthPolarBear · 10/08/2012 13:24

but but mine was ironic

OddBoots · 10/08/2012 13:27

Can we have Magic Moments? Bursts into a bit of Bacharach and David.

Chandon · 10/08/2012 13:29

Stealthpolarbear, was the irony obvious? or did you have to point it out by adding random smilies and and etc.???

well?

EldritchCleavage · 10/08/2012 13:31

Mine was a song and one clearly using it in the sex euphemism way.

FeakAndWeeble · 10/08/2012 13:32

'I need some mind bleach'

Bleurgh. There you are, another one. God I'm thinking of loads I must be a right miserable cow! [lighthearted] [PA smiley] etc...

StealthPolarBear · 10/08/2012 13:36

un-MN ((((hugs)))))
I see that one about ten times a day!

Onthebottomwithawomansweekly · 10/08/2012 13:38

Melting moments sounds like a particularly liquid nappy

It's lunchtime but I'm not hungry now!

FeakAndWeeble · 10/08/2012 13:38

'Have my first ever Biscuit'

I must read that a billion times a week. How are there so many people on here who haven't yet given a biscuit? And why is it never anyone's second biscuit?!

StealthPolarBear · 10/08/2012 13:43

I don't think I have ever just give a Biscuit. I've used it many times though. Could be wrong

EldritchCleavage · 10/08/2012 13:45

I have never given a biscuit. I don't use emoticons. Even the word emoticon makes me shudder.
