Yuck yuck yuck.

The same people who add "...ypoos" to the end of their children's names I'd imagine. I am going to be sick on the next Jakeypoos, Joshypoos or Mollypoos I hear about. I've taken enough.

Can I throw 'Man Air' as a shortening of Manchester Airport into the mix?? My DMum says this and it makes me want to explode with rage for some reason - I just can't bear it. And she is going on holiday in a couple of weeks via this place and I am dropping her off and everything, so will be hearing it a lot. Sad

Used to know someone who used "Sainsbobs". Put my teeth on edge.

When my dd was little she told her teacher her father was away with his friends from work to eat jelly.

Not really relevant- but quite sweet.

Never heard it until I saw it on MN. And like it. Now I am on my Easter holibobs, Yay me!

SignoraStronza · 29/03/2013 17:19

People who call magazines 'books'. Use 'luvs' instead of 'love'. The word 'hubby' really sets my teeth on edge too. However I will admit that today is a 'bonk holiday' - although that's partly to do with having French ex and partly describes the day (in the distant past pre dcs).Blush

Oops not the thread for me in my wellybobs then Grin

My friend's DD told me she plans to travel round 'Honkers' during her gap year.

I think my death stare was enough to knock that shit on the head...

Pan · 29/03/2013 17:22

WorraLiberty · 29/03/2013 17:23

'Honkers' being Hong Kong by the way

Not some sort of seedy competition for Hooters [bugrin]

Happiestinwellybobs · 29/03/2013 17:24

Although in my defence, nothing else in my life is deserving of a bobs on the end of it.

Buzzardbird · 29/03/2013 17:24

signora it's always a 'bonk' holiday in the black cuntray! [bugrin]

I have no idea what any of you are on about.

These are usually women who have a 'favourite colour' that they wear all the time, along with matching accessories. They also collect things. Like elephants.

Thanks worra was just going to ask. Could only think of Honduras and thought it might be a bit silly to spend a year travelling Honduras [bublush]
