There seems to be so many. Should I LTB because -

He burnt the dinner
He put DD's dress on the wrong way
He put 2 sugars in my tea instead of 1.5.

And we're suppose to think the OP is so witty and original and laugh at oh aren't men so silly and can't do a simple task properly.

Yes I get that you should take it in the funny way it was intended but it's just so old and boring now.

If you don't agree that's fine Writer but at least be able to formulate words.

I don't think that is the intention of those threads. Isn't it more HUFF I am irrationally annoyed with my normally lovely husband who has made a mistake. Join me in jokingly plotting to bury him under the patio, because it will make me feel better, even though he's a big old softy and will have won his way into my good books by 3pm.

Most threads which are "Aren't men silly lol!!!!!" get called out for sexism in the first three posts.

I sat there for ages trying to think of a written response that encapsulated what I was thinking - but I couldn't Grin

I knew I wanted to say something.....just wasn't sure what.

The facial expression looks like a person who is pondering - and that's what I'm doing Grin

YY to Bertie- Most of the time those threads are created to let the crazy out of the internet instead of all over your DP's dead body.

SmashleyHop · 05/06/2014 14:33
  • that would be "on the internet" Blush

Ha see I don't see it as a pondering face, I see it as what the fuck are you on about face.

Weird how people interpret different things.

Thank you! It's so predictable and boring. Reminds me one of those dry jokes someone tells which you can't even attempt a half smile.
I know the op is attempting to be witty but it's so cringeConfused now.

MissThang · 05/06/2014 14:35

Yanbu at all. I find it unfunny and cringey at best.

Writerwannabe83 · 05/06/2014 14:36

I definitely wasn't thinking "What the fuck" lol Grin

I've just noticed actually in the 'Smileys List' the Hmm is described as sceptical and not pondering Grin

Lesson learnt Grin

Leave The Threads.

CoffeeTea103 · 05/06/2014 14:39

Also where the cats are the boss.
And the op writing as the baby, reminds me of people creating fb pages for their babies Hmm
So old, predictable and boring.

SmashleyHop · 05/06/2014 14:42

Oh the OP writing as a baby one made my brain shut down. I had an ex who's sister wrote all her e-mails to him as if her dog was writing them. Gag- It's a wonder we never got on. Wink
