to think there are certain words that should never come out of an adult's mouth?

[GretaGip]

Mean.

'Snot fair

Bobbies

I'm sure there's more...

It's a bloody rectangle!!

snoozed tell your MIL that boofuls is a character in a horror novel by Graham Masterton. In fact he's the baddie and he's a ghost possesed by the devil iirc...
Ickle makes me all irrational.
Titties...

I don't see anything wrong with horrid or ghastly, I use them.

The thing that gets me giggling on here (have heard it nowhere else) is when someone says 'front bottom' instead of vagina. WTF! lol.

'it's a bloody rectangle!!'

ha! funniest reaction seen for a while
:)

I thought boofuls was one of the names of the original jelly babies ? Or have I got that from a particularly surreal dream ?

No, I'm right . It's the lime green one . How I love google !

Jingleflobba I'll share that with dear MIL.

I prefer ghost possessed by the devil. Either way 'boofuls' is certainly not appropriate language for a woman of 52.

definitely 'yummy'- used in a whiny way when describing the 'yummy food' that said adult has cooked, and no-one else has been appreciative of. Probably because they are adults, with different tastes, it doesn't mean they are fussy. this really winds me up,can you tell

Slowgin - a rectangle is any shape that has 4 parallel sides and 4 right angled corners. A square is a rectangle with equal sides, an oblong is a rectangle with 2 equal short opposite sides and 2 equal long opposite sides.

you see, We3kings, I hate it used in a very serious way

Even worse is the even shorter Yum.

eg " I made some roasted ostrich with fairyberries and side salad of emerald and diamonds. Yum"

cue me clenching fists, sneering and swearing

Oops, sorry TENDTO, not slowgin.

AmI-

:) It is fine Lara2, I did not know that info so I learnt a nice fact.

Urgh front bottom, totally agree, puke inducing.

Off of

Had to sit through a very boring description of a house MIL had viewed.."it had a nice lounge and then off of that was the dining room and then off of that was the kitchen...."

Well jell. Holibobs. Totes amaze.

"Mummy" and "Daddy" when referring to a partner/spouse. What a dynamic to start establishing. Yuk!

Poorly sick, oh yes, had forgotten that little horror.

'holibobs' makes me momentarily despise whoever is using it.

Fammo
Bestie
Bubba
Bot-bot (heard used for both bottle and arse!)

And my ultimate "let's do lunch"

"naughty" in the context of pudding
"good" in the context of salad

OTOH, I love "well jell", "totes emosh" and "dead hilair". Mark Kermode uses them when reviewing teen movies and it cracks me up (he and Mayo have teen/tween daughters). DD is ten and s so hard when I use any of them that she nearly dislocates her eyebrow.

Swrar words.

I love this thread.

I didn't know bubs and bubba meant baby - I thought they were hideous cute words for husband

DDs and I started saying byzers when they were leaving for school in the morning - it began as a joke and has become a difficult habit to break

In my teens my mum developed a habit of saying nicky nacky noo at bedtime. It still makes me feel queasy.

Bubs
Hubby
Ickle
Hollibobs
hun
More better (and the like)
coolio

However: I grew up in South Africa and panties is what we wore! We also "rocked up" at the party and ALWAYS ended sentences with the word "man" - not in the "Hey, cool man, wow!" kind of way, but more of an expression of irritation, or chillaxed () kind of way.

"tubby hubby" it makes me feel ill, and now I feel angry at myself for writing it.
