Last I heard fanjos could only be washed in pure water and even the thought of soap would give you thrush. Now it seems it's fine to scrub them with wire wool and dettol.
Also, it used to be ok to just trim the hair that might poke out around your knickers, but now all body hair is evil and must be removed via hot wax.
And then I read on MN that washing up in a bowl and then putting it on the draining board like they used to in the fairy adverts is all wrong and we should be washing up under running water.
And while we are about it, what the fuck is quinoa and more to the point how did everyone else know how to say it?

So what else was on this memo that I missed?

My memo read: Don't ever wear shoes in other peoples houses as the whole family (especially crawling babies) will die of some awful outside pavement disease.

Ah I see. I assume there are some people who don't do such filthy things as pooing.

is it a posh breakfast cereal?

did anyone read the thread about the smelly willy?

my foo foo is washed and ready for bed.

treaclesoda · 01/04/2014 23:36

Smelly willy? Shock

I did not read it, for which I feel grateful. What did it say? Wink

thebody · 01/04/2014 23:36

to add I can feed a family of 5 of one small chicken for 3 days.

so there!

Friday night is bumsex night.

Pipbin · 01/04/2014 23:37

So quinoa is couscous then and not the second coming?
Maybe this pronounciation has just been made up so the middle class can be easily spotted.
Fuzzywuzzy outside pavement disease made me nearly spit my ovaltine over the duvet. (What is the reason I can't conceive again?)
I do take my shoes off in someone else's house as a rule.

I hope you used evian thebody? Without soap

God knows you might have upset the delicate ph balance down there and end up growing your own quinoa

treacle op said her dh came home after a night out and she smelt his willie from across the room.

she then sucked it to see why?

I stopped reading there as my Rice Krispies were churning.

Famzilla · 01/04/2014 23:38

You must never poop. Your DH may only poo if he does it in the upstairs loo and is not a tradesman. If he is a tradesman he can never poo, wee or wash his anywhere ever. He is dirty and will steal everything you own.

Also if you give your children sugar they will drop out of university and become crackheads.

Pipbin · 01/04/2014 23:39

'Quimoa' fnar fnar, do you see what I did there?

thebody I feel sick and a bit dirty just reading that!

thebody · 01/04/2014 23:40

imnottofussed in that case I would spread natural yogurt over said foo foo and go hug a tree.

LiberalLibertine · 01/04/2014 23:41

And you cannot dry your face with a towel one of your family may have dried their face with, it's 'minging'

Oh, and if you stroke your dog you must wash your hands afterwards.

I never get the 'how to be a wimmin' memos.

imnottoofussed · 01/04/2014 23:41

I'm not sure that was on the memo Grin

thebody · 01/04/2014 23:41

I know it was a strange thread.

one hopes the op never takes up nursing. oh that smells nasty let me lick it

mind boggled.

PostmanPatAlwaysRingsTwice · 01/04/2014 23:42

That willy sucker clearly missed a few important memos.

thebody · 01/04/2014 23:42

That spiritual enlightenment comes in a mooncup.

I still haven't the faintest what one is.

Pipbin · 01/04/2014 23:44

My mother always told me 'never put anything in your mouth that hasn't been boiled first'. *
I think the smelly willy poster was missing that vital piece of information.

*may be a lie

PostmanPatAlwaysRingsTwice · 01/04/2014 23:44

Moon cups are great but don't boil them dry when sterilising or they'll go on fire.

Terrortree · 01/04/2014 23:44

Yes - how does one clean a toilet sans bogbrush? I personally don't poop but I have a husband who I have trained to use one. What should he be doing?
