"I'm going to be a bit judgemental here" - no shit sherlock Grin you "perfect" bastard.

gail734 · 08/12/2012 21:53

Yeah, OP should flip off. Motherflipper.

ClippedPhoenix · 08/12/2012 21:54

I don't snog random people on the internet, in fact i don't snog friends in real life due to me being cold Grin

Lovey "snogs" are stupid and twee.

Don't even get me going on air kisses.

kennyp · 08/12/2012 22:43

agree with all of the above. hate hate hate luffly, vair, hoikey (ffs, it's not remotely funny), jeff (wtf??), crusty bread/fresh rolls/market vegetables. (am going slightly off here but reallly blooooody irritating)

borisjohnsonshair · 08/12/2012 22:49

Oh you're not BU at all. I detest feck, blardy et al and especially the f*ing asterisks.

But I do like "vair" and "naice" as they are of the piss-taking variety, which I like vair much.

InExitCelsisDeo · 08/12/2012 22:54

So, what is it you like about Mumsnet?

vladthedisorganised · 08/12/2012 22:57

I must claim exemption for feck - it's an Irish thing. And 'blimey' is one of my 'pre-watershed things it's ok for DD to repeat incessantly' words, so that's OK too.

"I was just a bit sick in my mouth"; "a little bit of wee came out" - oh for fuck's (fack's?) sake, are you five?

Can't be doing with snogs, luffs or "I think I'm a little bit in love with ". I suspect we're all over 13 here.

getagoldtoof · 08/12/2012 23:19

I fecking hate 'fook' or 'fooking'. Fuck off.

InExitCelsisDeo Sat 08-Dec-12 22:54:21 So, what is it you like about Mumsnet?

Most everything else. Is it just MN that uses these stupid tweeisms? Is it a defining feature of MN? Must one dislike the whole website if one dislikes this? Xmas Hmm

InExitCelsisDeo · 09/12/2012 22:39

Oh I don't know, it is just many of the things you hate seem to me to be the defining things of Mumsnet, on a day to day basis. Or maybe I just hang around on the twee threads.

Hate 'I Luffs'

That is my number one.

Closely followed by 'Gawjuss'

There are a couple of posters who use these quite often.

I think it is meant ironically... or something...

They sound like schoolgirl queenbees.

EverlongLovesHerChristmasRobin · 09/12/2012 22:57

I do hate the ' snorting tea thing ' sorry.

Does anybody really say gawjuss on here Hmm

Hate gavel. And natch.

Not arsed about much else.

InExitCelsisDeo · 09/12/2012 22:58

But Everlong - I luffs you dearly.

EverlongLovesHerChristmasRobin · 09/12/2012 23:05

I'm very of you too my dear Wink

EverlongLovesHerChristmasRobin · 09/12/2012 23:10

Oops. Mist the word fond out!

EverlongLovesHerChristmasRobin · 09/12/2012 23:11

Oh Jesus I'm drunk!

Missed. Missed not mist! Grin

InExitCelsisDeo · 09/12/2012 23:15

Go to bed woman!

EverlongLovesHerChristmasRobin · 09/12/2012 23:19

Goodnight!

Feck/fecking/fecker are Irish and perfecktly acceptable (unless you are my mother).

Feck/fecking/fecker are Irish and perfecktly acceptable

Indeed. My Irish grandmother used the word all the time. I shall continue to do so too.
