...to be irritated by the word 'indulgence'?

[chickpeanow]

For some reason I HATE HATE HATE it. I don't think I've ever used it.

Another past Enid Blyton Mallory Towers reader here

You utter oafs!

I remember Carlotta and her circus ways!

Worra...let's have an adventure! Jolly ho!

I like beastly, I use it far too much actually.

I'm really hating poorly-sick at the moment though. Not like I would ever describe myself as healthy-well is it?!

I remember Carlotta and her circus ways!

Right well that just sounds like a porn movie...

'scanty' because it is often followed by the word 'discharge'

I can honestly say I have never heard of the phrase "scanty discharge"

Oh you durty, durty thing clears pure brain (might take some time...)

apostropheuse Yes I think we jolly well ought.

What say you to a midnight feast when Matron goes to bed?

There was someone who sang as well and then got caught out in the rain and was a shell of her former self?? But a better person?? I don't really know much about Enid Blyton but some of the messages might have been a bit offkey!

Lol 'Scanty discharge' sounds like a pirate for some weird reason.

Lashings of ginger beer is what Enid said I think.

I wonder exactly how much is in a lashing.

Pimp: Google it. I dare you.

yah yah midnight feast in the dorm. All good fun!

ohhhh a dare. Wonder if there'll be a double-dare.

OK, if we're doing pirate names, then bagsie I'm not 'scanty discharge'.

There's a sentence I never thought I'd ever type.

oo ar, me scanty discharge

Not mine particularly, you understand

Too late 3b1g you are now and MNHQ have given you 24hrs to change to that name or risk being known as a great big meanie.

Sorry I meant

I hate the word 'mauled'. 'The child was mauled to death by lions'.. Don't ask me why, just do.

I'd rather change it to GreatBigMeanie.

I'll tell you a word I do love and that's bulbous.

Bulbous

Bulbous

Bulbous

It just slips off the tongue and I find it endearingly amusing.

My only gripe with it, is that it's difficult to work into everyday conversation without appearing as though I need to be sectioned.
