I mean I know they're hormonal,I know they're all nice really but it looms out at me so offensively when I click on active threads. Couldn't it be renamed a more cuddly title? Something cutsey and babylike though a little annoying would do fine!

Like oh mwah mwah sweetie baby dust baby dancing blw @@@*@?

bEllieK · 28/03/2007 19:06

here we go again

RanToTheHills · 28/03/2007 19:07

That would be slightly better! Imo, swearing or ** or cutsey is better than the insinuation of violence, albeit virtual.

pesme · 28/03/2007 19:07

PinkChick · 28/03/2007 19:08

i like that thread title!

RanToTheHills · 28/03/2007 19:08

there has. we were the target that time. it was pointed out that you could use the search for new messages instead, therefore blocking Ante-Natal as we all offend you so much.

RanToTheHills · 28/03/2007 19:13

oh look, you don't offend me! It's just the thread title and how it's so in your face! Hadn't realise you could block it, might have to,I think. No offence, honeslty.

bEllieK · 28/03/2007 19:13

that's fine, none taken, just don't want it all kicking off again, we're pregnant you know

kittywaitsfornumber6 · 28/03/2007 19:14

Oh God, not another I hate that thread title moan up

foxybrown · 28/03/2007 19:15

Oh Rantothehills, is it really so bad you have to want to ban it?

RanToTheHills · 28/03/2007 19:17

God no! Where did I say anything about banning? I'm all for free speech (esp after incident over SWMNBN) I wasjust saying that IMO it's too in your face and it annoys me, that's it!

Don't be a miserable bugger, hormonal pregnant women make me laugh! And don't forget RTTH, they'll stop being aggressive soon, and start crying....

foxybrown · 28/03/2007 19:18

So can you just block it from your own 'active conversations' then?

hollyandtheeasterbunny · 28/03/2007 19:18

Moan, moan, moan! Are we being racist, homophobic, ageist or any other ist? NO, we just don't like strangers touching us! Everyone on here gets so offended about everything, I'm now offended about people being offended!

RanToTheHills · 28/03/2007 19:18

But I am a miserable bugger, can't helpit! Blame the parents.

foxybrown · 28/03/2007 19:19

anyway, all they talk about is sex, sex aids and chocolate. yawn yawn yawn

RanToTheHills · 28/03/2007 19:19

I don't like it, that's all.I'm not saying you have to change it, it's my opinion, that's all!

OP posts:
RanToTheHills · 28/03/2007 19:20

btw, no stranger ever tried to touch me when i was pg. Doesn't that just show quite how truly miserable I must be?

OP posts:
theheadgirl · 28/03/2007 19:20

See its kicking off already, the fats chicks are gonna cry soon.....

hollyandtheeasterbunny · 28/03/2007 19:20

And sex dreams foxy, don't forget them!

raspberryberet · 28/03/2007 19:21

I remember complete strangers coming up to me when I was pregnant and grabbing my bump - and although I smiled through gritted teeth, I really wanted to slap them. One little old lady even tried to lift my top up to touch my naked bump when I was pregnant with ds

So I smile with wry amusement and sympathetic feeling when I see that thread title because that's exactly what I wanted to say at the time!

It's not the most offensive title that I've seen in the last few days ...

RanToTheHills · 28/03/2007 19:21

well, there's been a lot more response than on my mansard roof/loft conversion thread!
Btw, anyone any tips on those?!

foxybrown · 28/03/2007 19:22

It takes more that this to make US cry!

Tell us we can't have our donuts [sob]
