To think that this is disgusting and offensive?

I like little signs and words around the home. I have quite a few, made from nicely decorated wooden letters ('soak' in the living room, 'relax' in the guest bedroom, kids names on their windowsills etc).

I went to a friends house today. She has a new sign too.
It's wooden letters above her loo spelling out a vulgar term for urine. She thought it was hilarious. I not so.

Am I boring or is it offensive? What would you think?

My brother was working in the kitchen of one of his clients. On a shelf were 4 large mugs, you know the type which have a large capital letter on each mug. They were arranged in a line to spell C U N T. I thought it was v funny. And I hate those wooden letters.

BeaufortBelle · 21/08/2015 20:33

I've just realised our initials would spell D A N E. We are so teutonic is unbelievable Grin.

Sorry, totally off topic but it has made me giggle and want to do it. although I hate this letter/spelling/twee business

Ah, this reminded me of the passive-aggressive cake eating where the birds didn't fly . . .was that you too Op? Grin

ouryve · 21/08/2015 22:07

I need to change one of the boys' names, then I could use our initials to spell Y.O.N.I.

LadyBaelish · 21/08/2015 22:28

Grin this HAS to end up in Classics surely? Well done OP, a fine example of how to do a wind-up!

Can you give me a quote for ATROCIOUS CUNTS in pink flocking please?

Deadsouls · 21/08/2015 22:32

You mean 'piss', I can think of more colourful words, but you know one person's 'offensive and vulgar'..

Think that was greensleeves - the one where the OP was putting her substandard cakes out for the rubbish and the DH was eating them, despite being forbidden? That was brilliant Grin

My girlfriend's landlady has large, dark wood letters placed high up, spelling out RELAX.

Perhaps they listened to relaxation tape?

Wow.

That is truly terrifying.

(I think she's a very nice lady, btw, and feel bad for assuming any such thing.)

AvaCrowder · 21/08/2015 23:18

That not perfect cake eating thread was brilliant only just realised it wasn't real

PrinceHansOfTheTescoAisles · 21/08/2015 23:36

Star well played OP

Pigeonpost · 22/08/2015 11:47

Well done OP. It got especially good after the the gifting of more appropriate letters post.

MovingOnUpMovingOnOut · 22/08/2015 12:04

Cakes and garlic up the bum were greensleeves.

So who are you?

ComeWhineWithMe had a great fake thread a while ago about bubz in headbandz but I don't think she's around any more.
