AIBU to think that the woman watching telly who "could really do with a snack" is a lazy cow who needs to get off her bloody backside and fetch her own snacks?

(I concede that I MIGHT have a touch of PMT)

I completely agree with you, she doesn't even ask nicely!

gaggiagirl · 29/08/2013 22:03

She's a lazy cow, he should leave the bitch!

InsultingBadger · 29/08/2013 22:07

I want to see her try and eat it...

ots · 29/08/2013 22:19

DH always answers her with "well get a fucking snack then!" Grin

iklboo · 29/08/2013 22:23

Yep. It's a 'well fucking get one then' in our house as well.

RoastedCouchPotatoes · 29/08/2013 22:24

I think she should, but sometimes it's nice. I get snacks for DH sometimes, he sometimes does for me- just because you're up, it's less bother and we don't mind much. Unusual though, and if we were both sitting down, it would be VU!

This advert is on my list. The Should Be Banned List. I just don't get why the advert makers did not make her ask nicely!

I think you might have missed the point. It's was how she asked him, not that fact that she actually asked him.

Does no one care about the poor M&M? The poor wee love, being offered up for sacrifice. You're all heartless.

alohahaha · 29/08/2013 22:52

YANBU, that advert really baffles me!

DiseasesOfTheSheep · 29/08/2013 23:13

Am with numtumdedum here. Served up for slaughter in a plastic bowl Sad Won't someone think of the M&Ms?!

HooverFairy · 29/08/2013 23:13

She's pathetic.

BUT... the 'you get in the bowl' bit cracks me up every time I need to get out more.

TiggyD · 30/08/2013 06:25

I'm not sure I could eat something that's talking to me.

UnicornsNotRiddenByGrownUps · 30/08/2013 06:31

She's a bit lazy but sometimes DH and me do this to each other too. Given that's its MN I'm surprised that people haven't jumped in thinking of all sorts of reasons why she can't move...

TheFallenNinja · 30/08/2013 06:43

Yanbu. Her lags aren't painted on are they. Lazy fecker.

FruOla · 30/08/2013 07:30

"I'm not sure I could eat something that's talking to me." Grin Tiggy

maidmarian2012 · 31/08/2013 08:28

Its the "I'm gonna be needing a snack...." bit that annoys me. Please????

CaptainCapybara · 31/08/2013 09:36

Their TV is in a weird place too.
