hubster??

Dear god.

I once went out on a date with a bloke who at some point in the evening described himself as a 'fun-ster'. I snorted into my dinner, and left without arranging a second date.

I hate nomnomnom, do you make that noise when you eat?

But I am my dog and cat's mummy, adoptive maybe, but still.
When I talk to my dog I say 'who's mummy's boy' because he's mummy's boy, he is [bublush]

Bumperlicious · 29/03/2013 19:19

Let's talk about what people call their remote controls, things like 'plinker'...

INeedThatForkOff · 29/03/2013 19:20

Can't bear 'cwtch' either, and I'm Welsh.

OhDearieDearieMe · 29/03/2013 19:21

I can beat all of you hands down. HANDS DOWN I SAY!

DH calls the dog .............wait for it..............

"Diggly Doggly Biggly Boggly"

I absolutely AM going to kill him - it's just a matter of how. All ideas welcome.

Bumperlicious · 29/03/2013 19:21

DH once described himself as a rufty tufty builder. I did point out that no one really rufty tufty would describe themselves as rufty tufty.

shockers · 29/03/2013 19:23

*Let's talk about what people call their remote controls, things like 'plinker'..."

NO... LET'S NOT!

INeedThatForkOff · 29/03/2013 19:23

Dooberries (remote).

This may out me, but my wider circle of friends calls it a 'moke', pronounced 'maawk' in the local accent. This is because a well known local lad grew up thining it was called a mokontrol [bugrin]

StAlphonzospancakebreakfast · 29/03/2013 19:25

Cuppy? What the actual fuck?
Can I add 'Glasto' ..as in, yah, I've got my hunter wellies ready for Glasto (going there on their fucking holibobs no doubt)

LadyBeaEGGleEyes · 29/03/2013 19:30

I call my dog my snugglebuggleboy and alfiewalfiewoodlewoo Dearie.

Cannot abide people saying....

My bad (that's the most annoying)

Amaze balls

Totes (as in totally)

The wee man / wee woman when referring to dc

iwouldgoouttonight · 29/03/2013 19:42

sudaname my DP says 'break of the fast' too, bloody annoying. Also 'i'm going to ablute' instead of going to have a wash.

LadyBeaEGGleEyes · 29/03/2013 19:43

The wee man is quite an old Scottish phrase for little boys though, it's been around for ever.
I've never heard wee woman though.

StAlphonzospancakebreakfast · 29/03/2013 19:44

Seeker that is brilliant. I love Adam Buxton. I'd go on hollibobs with him any day (oh god, I'm going to start actually using it now)
