Wazzit say, exactly? Not seen it.

Verycold · 14/09/2014 10:07

It's things like I push doors when it says pull, I count on my fingers to do maths. Confused you can google it

As a woman, are you not able to link?

however · 14/09/2014 10:08

Oh, I'll google it when my nail polish dries. I could't possibly ruin it.

Dear god.

YANBU! Never seen it before - and wish I hadn't now! ????

ScarlettlovesRhett · 14/09/2014 10:15

Lol, it's very teenage.

Have actual grown ups been posting it?!

OTheHugeManatee · 14/09/2014 10:19

Grown adults seriously post shite like that and think it tells the world something profound about them??? Confused

DontPutMeDownForCardio · 14/09/2014 10:27

What a pile of shit.

Verycold · 14/09/2014 10:32

Yup, usually the comment is That's so me! Shock

My God, inane shite being posted all over Facebook? Stop the presses!

EhricLovesTheBhrothers · 14/09/2014 11:11

Oh. My. God. I'm glad I don't know anyone who would post that.

hormonalandneedingcheese · 14/09/2014 11:43

Isn't that just being human? And with the push/pull- being scatty? Both DH and I do that! Stupidest quote I've seen in a while.

I think Dorothy Parker can rest easy in her grave.

MehsMum · 14/09/2014 11:47

Come on, MNHQ: where is the emoticon?
I need to use several, right now!

I thought Push/Pull was the preserve of the preoccupied of whatever gender.

StillFrigginRexManningDay · 14/09/2014 11:48

Its a long time since I was girl.

LosingAllTheLego · 14/09/2014 11:54

It's a bit Dawson's Creek-ish!

I tend to just delete actual grown ups who post shite like that, but thankfully not seen this other than here.

ElephantsNeverForgive · 14/09/2014 11:59

I push doors that say pull and do Arithmetic on my fingers because I'm dyslexic (I still have A level Maths and a science degree)!

Not due to having two X chromosomes, now do piss off dear!

DoJo · 14/09/2014 13:04

But these are YOUR friends who are choosing to post this - if you are baffled as to how they are able to post it and be proud, aren't you equally baffled as to why you are friends with them?

NickiFury · 14/09/2014 13:09

I hate those "I played out till dusk, rode my bike without a helmet, swam in the local river, climbed trees, travelled in cars without seat belts blah blah blah and I turned out ok" ones.

I always feel like commenting "unfortunately the kids that had nasty accidents from doing those things aren't here to post about it on FB are they? You twat!

RedRoom · 14/09/2014 14:06

What an absolute load of shite.

backbystealth · 14/09/2014 14:11

Arrgghh load of shite doesn't even cover it

backbystealth · 14/09/2014 14:12

Ha ha Redroom I posted that before seeing your post!
