...to want to have a giggle with other mnetters ?

[MrsVamos]

I think we need to remember that AIBU can also be for daft things we discuss.

Where we 'escape' for a while, and forget our worries...

I do hope some of you feel the same.

My brain hurts (its very muggy at the mo) and wont work properly.

If anyone has a daft, giggle- rousing AIBU, please contribute.

I may disappear for a while, as pesky family require feeding.

Just when I decide to have an evenings mnetting 5 minutes peace, they want food. Why me ?

You are being...reasonable . That sounds weird.

I think we need a bitchy thread. Where we can all just be horrible and unsupportive to each other when we are in foul moods...The Snark Tank? Pre-menstrual Palace? The Crab Shack? The Maxi Pad?

AIBU to ring dh and tell him to bring home wine?

YANBU - but tell him to bring a hose as well.

Also, my DP amuses me no end with his wit. Recent example...

Him: What's the heaviest, a ton of feathers or a ton of bricks? Me: Both the same, a ton. Him: You'd rather carry a ton of feathers though wouldn't you? :o

"AIBU to expect a sports bra to be designed in such a way that I don't pull a muscle in my arm the first time of putting it on?"

I've just bought fantastic new sports bras. And of course they fit snugly under bust. And are made of grippy stuff so they don't ride around. Which means in hot weather I can't get into them because I'm not a contortionist and can't do 3 hooks in the middle of my back. And it's too grippy to fasten at the front and swivel.

Still, too hot/humid to exercise anyhow. And it's very near weekly o'clock (some habits persist, even in the hols).

(Psst Maryz - get a rowing machine and exercise at home. Clothes optional).

Who still fastens their bra at the back and swivels it round?

I'll start, me obviously!

I have never done the bra swivelling.

I got stuck in a basque once. V hot day in the bra shop.

Ooh Sparkling, I once got stuck in a very tight boob tube, with a new partner, most embarrassing! I haven't thought about that for years!

maryz can you not do it up and then put it on like a top?

thorn how can you get stuck in a boob tube? I thought they were there to swivel down at inopportune moments and need to be pulled up all the fucking time?

Thorn it was awful. It was for under my wedding dress. It was in a box with tissue paper and very lovely. So I just got stuck in with trying to get it on, got it down (over the head job), got it down but couldn't get it off.
Turns out I needed the next size up. It is still in my loft-I wouldn't dare risk a repeat.

Oh hell no, this was no ordinary boob tube. It was extremely tight shirred elastic at the front and sort of boned at the back, if that makes sense. It was the 80's, that's all I'm going to say.

I think I may have got that the wrong way round! Maybe that was the problem.

Oh no Sparkling there's nothing quite like the panic of being stuck in a garment in a changing room.

MaryZ I am rapidly coming to the same conclusion. In addition to the sore upper arm, my thumb joint hurts from the same incident! I think you're right about all the contortions and wriggling needed to get the fuckers on and off using lots of calories. So next question - AIBU to not bother with my hour's walk now because I've done my exercise for the day now?

YABU to expect me to think up jokes in this weather before I've opened the gin. Come and post on my everybody-bashing thread while I have a totally unjustified lie down :)

AIBU to not bother with my hour's walk now because I've done my exercise for the day now?

Totally not. Have a drinkie.

Garlic I was so hoping someone would say that :)

I got stuck in a feathery shrug-style jacket once. The changing room looked like I'd plucked a chicken by the time I wrestled out of the bastarding thing. Looked awful on as well - like a low-rent Liberace tribute act

My Mum rescued me in the end and we did a joint effort and hoiked it off thorn

I haven't been for my walk today. I have been going at 7am since the schools broke up but couldn't today. Could go now i suppose....

Ohhh. That makes sense. I had the lycra flammable ones made popular by the spice girls in my head.

I can't laugh at that, could I ? You could have been hurt

That's no fun - I've done great injury to myself with a sports bra. In fact, I think it's helped with the mess my sports bra made of my shoulder - it hurts loads less than it did before...

will no one think of the horses

It was his fault! (And he's fine )

thinks diseases just had a subtle brag on owning a horse

He's a very small horse. More like a big dog really. He's nothing to brag about. (I'm lying, he's actually super, but that would be bragging).

Anyway, carry on

Greater. That sentence didn't make sense. Sorry. I'll leave you to it now!
