At one point he did a full Kanye

That^ is without doubt the funniest thing I've read on Mumsnet over the years.

It looks like trouble is a-foot.

ReanimatedSGB · 14/02/2018 18:21

There is, genuinely, something rather endearing about this glimpse into the lives of two tough, smart, warm, funny, happy people.

Graphista · 14/02/2018 18:23

I'm an old git what does "doing a full Kanye" mean?

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 14/02/2018 18:23

I wonder if Fanny has got home yet. Can't wait for her Valentines/funeral surprise.

alotalotalot · 14/02/2018 18:25

Now you are aquainted with the more heavenly aspects of life death is there Thor, Odin and the others knocking around or is it just plain old God?

Sorry - forgot that you self identify with the warmer climes down below.

ZigZagIntoTheBlue · 14/02/2018 18:27

Couldn't read and run, I have high hopes for your surprise, enjoy the evening and I hope nothing further is heard from M0

Kanye West has form for stage crashing during award ceremonies and ranting. He did it famously to Taylor Swift at the VMAs I think. He goes into odd monologues about whatever is in his head. Once went batshit when Beyoncé didn't win an award iirc....

I‘m dead too Grin
EXP has left 2 massive bunches of roses by my front door for me. I didnt let him bring them into the house, as I’m allergic to flowers and as he has been unable to remember this in the last twenty years, he brought roses once again. I ignored them until DS pointed out the obvious and has now moved them out of the way. Happy to donate them for a good cause.

BigFatFanny · 14/02/2018 18:43

I’m home, he’s out done himself.

First thing I noticed upon entering my living room, I have no sofas. They are completely gone.

Second point of note is the presence of 4 double blow up mattresses covering the entire floor, covered with 4 king sized duvets and all the scatter cushions that used to be on the missing sofas.

There’s also a tube of green Pringles, a packet of chocolate hobnobs and a BOX of wine. A BOX.

DH (wearing only his pants) presented me with a jewellery box which, upon opening, contained one of the joy-cons from my Nintendo switch.

He then ordered me to go and put my pj’s on because it’s game night and I’m apparently due and ass kicking on mariokart Grin

I had some questions.

Turns out, my sofas have gone to the tip because unknown to me, DH ordered much needed new ones in the New Year’s Day sales and they are due for delivery on Friday Grin they were originally going to be delivered today so that bit of his plan has gone a bit wrong, hence he’s borrowed air beds from my parents, his mum and my sister to create an enormous living room bed until the sofas arrive. My Mum and Dad were here earlier to help DH move the sofas and to drop off the air beds Grin apparently, when they asked what the air beds were for DH answered ‘that’s between man and wife’ Hmm you’d think after all this time they’d learn not to ask...

Man ..... orders sofas .... off his own bat .....

FairyDogMother11 · 14/02/2018 18:48

I totally agree with the picking a nerd, it worked out very well for me. Your threads are making me die, I shall probably see you in the afterlife Grin

Lweji · 14/02/2018 18:50

That arrival at home totally sounds 50 shades of fun.
I'd rather have a red than a grey.

Welshmaenad · 14/02/2018 18:50

Op I've been loving your DH since your original thread but the ordering of sofas has made me actually swoon.

BigFatFanny · 14/02/2018 18:51

green he does all the adulting as I can’t be trusted. He also bought our bed without me because I was adamant I was having bunk beds so we had room in the bedroom for a sex swing suspended from the ceiling Grin

He sounds brilliant!

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 14/02/2018 18:52

Tbf, the only one who'd ever order sofas in this house would be DH. Blush

BigFatFanny · 14/02/2018 18:52

Mind you, I haven’t seen these sofas. There’s every chance they are blow up.

The bass player has a point about Tesco flowers but the fwakes not til Friday, if DH is smart he'll wait til tomorrow and buy up all the reduced left over valentines day flowers.

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 14/02/2018 18:55

As long as Tesco don't do what Sainsbury's do and just bin them.

ToadsforJustice · 14/02/2018 18:56

Mr Boomtastic - lover, lover lover....

LittleFeileFooFoo · 14/02/2018 18:59
Wine Box o, even!
RainbowGlitterFairy · 14/02/2018 19:03

@PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks, even better, then they'll be free flowers Wink
BFF is dead, she won't know they came from a bin.
