BellaBearisWideAwake · 10/01/2015 17:16

Do you mean like Major and Minor. Or Teeny and Little. Or Him Indoors?

BellaBearisWideAwake · 10/01/2015 17:17

I remember a blog where the kids were referred to as Fric and Frac but I thought that was quite funny

MilkThistle187 · 10/01/2015 17:17

Op, blogs always seem to infuriate you, what about giving them up? It would do your blood pressure the world of good

ZammoMcGuire · 10/01/2015 17:17

YANBU.

I happened upon the blog of a school Dad while innocently googling something school related. He uses incredibly cringey names for his DW and DCs. Now when I see him my sphincter twitches.

ItsAllKickingOffPru · 10/01/2015 17:21

'Mr' anything. You're not a Judge or a Cold Caller, give him his proper name ffs.

msgrinch · 10/01/2015 17:24

rant away. hope you're ok though.

ZammoMcGuire · 10/01/2015 17:25

YANBU

Examples to cringe over please!

Greywackejones · 10/01/2015 17:29

There's one in red mag. Dh is alpha male.

Alpha male. Just cringe tastic

And the stories are all "I'm a simpering girl, can't possibly do it and dh is a bit thick"

Every week. Just how the fuck is the salary justified?!?

ZammoMcGuire · 10/01/2015 17:30

how the hell do magazines keep going?!

OP posts:
ItsAllKickingOffPru · 10/01/2015 17:30

Attic24 and her Little People.

HelloItsStillMeFell · 10/01/2015 17:31

YABNU. In fact, I am coming round to the opinion that 98.4% of all blogs are utter shite. Just self absorbed, boring, poorly written shite that no-one cares about.

The rest are quite good.

Turquoisetamborine · 10/01/2015 17:35

Greywack I can't stand Rosie Green either. I hate the way Alpha Male calls her Green!

ZammoMcGuire · 10/01/2015 17:35

they all need a good edit. Write less say more

OP posts:
IamTitanium · 10/01/2015 18:07

HATE, that's a teeny tiny bit extreme Grin

Jessica78 · 10/01/2015 18:12

YANBU - my DSiL does this... 'The Mr' - it makes me shudder. Had to stop reading...

HatefullyHeather · 10/01/2015 18:13

Ha, Pru. That blog is my pet hate too. So sugary and flowery, makes my teeth hurt. But lots of people absolutely adore her...

Tobyjugg · 10/01/2015 18:18

One blogger calls DW "the old bat". Do wonder about his marriage.

Millli · 10/01/2015 18:19

OP maybe you should start your own blog.
