I never notice specific posters on here. I do remember you though, you are always so miserable and not even in a funny way! It's like you deliberately post stuff in an attempt to be controversial.

It's a cute video of baby and daddy. If you don't like it then don't watch it and then start a thread about it.

NorbertDentressangle · 27/04/2015 21:16

I liked the video, his laughter was so infectious......however, I did find myself thinking "I bet Tom McFly practices loud parenting" Hmm

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 27/04/2015 21:17

I'm total crap at noticing namechanges.

The video of his wife's pregnancy is pretty cool though.

Aw. It's sweet. And it's not compulsory to watch.

Grantaire · 27/04/2015 21:19

The OP has been here for donkeys. She doesn't hide. Isn't that right chuck?

I don't know who this McFly chap is btw. I have seen a video of a baby and dandelion clocks and a bespectacled man all over FB. It seemed fairly sweet.

Perhaps Catherine Tate's "Am I McBothered?" is applicable here?

HoneyDragon · 27/04/2015 21:19

Oh you big old Curmudgenly arse you. Shush.

itsnotmeitsyou1 · 27/04/2015 21:21

OP, I'm on your side. He really goes beyond 'excited parent', just very boring. Then again, I personally cannot stand awful, pretentious 'we're having a baby!' announcments, followed by awful week-by-week updates, pictures and videos. Really brings out the 'get over yourself' in me.

ParkingFred · 27/04/2015 21:24

The video is undoubtedly cute, but that bloke is a bit narcissistic imo with all his bloody videos.

And I am deducting points for giving that dear little boy the idiotic name Buzz.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 27/04/2015 21:24

Can someone link the youtube video please? I have found the wedding speech and the pregnancy song but not the toddler one!

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 27/04/2015 21:25

Parking I know right? BUZZ. What the hell were they thinking??

namechangeafternamechange · 27/04/2015 21:44

And the hoover sucks you all in again.....you're starting to bore me elizabeth

ZombieKoala · 27/04/2015 22:28

Other people have had children.
Theyre also free to put video's on You Tube.
People can choose to watch which ones they want, or choose not to watch any.

WilburIsSomePig · 27/04/2015 22:38

And you felt the need to start a thread on this? Blimey.

Apparently I'm so surprised I had to ask twice.

butterflyballs · 27/04/2015 22:40

Buzz was named after buzz Aldrin the astronaut. Tom is an astronomy geek.

ChaosTrulyReigns · 27/04/2015 22:44

I think tom mcfly is adorable the latest video made me smile his baby is na cheery happy little fella some folk like to suck the joy from everything, its better than half the shite onmy facebook that people share

FarFromAnyRoad · 27/04/2015 22:58

This OP makes me wish fervently for an IGNORE function on MN.
I knew someone like this once and she was the most miserable, friendless doom merchant ever. Everyone hated her and despised her almost as much as she despised herself. Yes. OP really does remind me of that person.

Bluestocking · 27/04/2015 22:58

I agree, Ms Hoover. I don't give a flying fuck about Tom McFart and his little farter, and Buzz is a fucking stupid name. Buzz Aldrin's real name is Edwin. So stick that in your "astronomy geek" pipe and smoke it.

LongDistanceLove · 27/04/2015 23:02

Buzz is named after buzz lightyear.

Who pissed on your chips op?

Fairylea · 27/04/2015 23:07

What?!! That's the cutest video ever. I love it. What's not to like?! Misery guts.

WorraLiberty · 27/04/2015 23:08

I agree FarFromAnyRoad

But some people are just joy sponges
