OH and small child were let loose in paperchase to purchase a gift for a teacher. Can't go wrong with stationery, I thought. Oh yes you bloody can!

OH swears he didn't realise that the mushroom(?) was phallic shaped.

To be honest I don't blame him for not wanting to swap them. So he can take them to bloody work instead. How do you like them apples, Mr Broadside?

Pressed post too soon. He thinks we should just send them in.

I don't want to be forever known as the penis parents.

Definitely give them to the teacher! Everyone likes a kitsch penis shaped post-it-note surely?

scatterthenuns · 13/07/2015 23:46

I like them and didn't think penis at all!

Its not like its a novelty hen do accessory!

Oh dear Lord what is coming out of that "mushroom's" mouth

You must give that to teacher.

You won;t be known as the penis parents. You will be known as the "Oh my fucking god an EJACULATING penis!" parents

It doesn't like anything like a penis with its little... dribble...

Dawndonnaagain · 13/07/2015 23:51

And it's pink!

Ledare · 13/07/2015 23:52

I'd be sending DH off to the G.P if his dribble was that colour.

notquitehuman · 13/07/2015 23:52

Hahaha oh my god the mushroom! I'm adding to cart right now. I love them!

Discopanda · 13/07/2015 23:53

I'm totally getting those next time I'm in paperchase!

HRHLadyFarquhar · 13/07/2015 23:54

There are so many jokes here, I don't know where to start.

Have xou considered tweeting them to Esther Rantzen?

I fear the ejaculation gags are just going to keep coming.

DrLego · 13/07/2015 23:59

what's going on with the hairy aubergine

DrLego · 14/07/2015 00:00

and the face on that carrot

cariadlet · 14/07/2015 00:00

Please, please don't let dc take them to school. I'm a teacher and if I unwrapped those the strain of trying to keep a straight face would give me a heart attack - especially if the TA was in the room and I caught her eye when trying to thank the child who'd given them to me.

GinAndSonic · 14/07/2015 00:01

My kids are just taking potted sunflowers for their teachers. I didnt think of penis shaped post its!

GinAndSonic · 14/07/2015 00:02

The carrot looks constipated

Kewcumber · 14/07/2015 00:03

The carrot needs some movicol before he ruptures his piles

DrLego · 14/07/2015 00:03

there's a whole range

Kewcumber · 14/07/2015 00:04

You could suggest your DC decorate the post it notes to personalise them. How about a bit of grass around the base of the mushroom. GIve it a nice woodland feel

Kewcumber · 14/07/2015 00:04

Great minds gin...

StupidBloodyKindle · 14/07/2015 00:05

Best gift ever. As a teacher (in another life anyway) I would have adored them...the phallic ones would have been used for senior management team related issues or for my detention lists or for notes on whichever kids were being knobs Friday afternoons last lesson. I repeat: Best gift ever.

Pumpkinpositive · 14/07/2015 00:07

"Dear Miss

Saw this ejaculating pink penis and thought of you.

Lots of love,

Little Susan"

HRHLadyFarquhar · 14/07/2015 00:11

Ledare I fear the ejaculation gags are just going to keep coming

Oh, don't worry, I can lower the tone further than that.

Esther can call her segment on post-its Debbie Esther Rantzen Does Mumsnet.

butterfly133 · 14/07/2015 00:12

Hilarious! Teacher will love it!

Ledare · 14/07/2015 00:15

HRH, "keep coming" was lowering the tone myself so I'm not worried about it Grin

I also read your post as "Esther can call her smegment..."

I should really go to bed. To sleep.
