Fuck off with your fucking balloons

330 replies

MaryofMislethwaiteManor · 15/12/2018 11:13

Alright, hands up, I’m hungover to fuck from a big party last night (free bar and free food which no one was bloody well eating Hmm) and I have to go to a two year old’s party later (I might eat a very rare burger for lunch to try and get out of that, as last time I did that the world fell out of my bottom Blush)

But I’ve just seen on Facebook that they’re currently in the process of blowing up 500 FIVE HUNDRED balloons to fill the restaurant (yes, the two year old is having their party at 7pm in a restaurant Confused)

WHY? WHY??? Why would you just willy nilly leave 500 balloons floating around to just remain in a horrid wrinkly plastic shape for the next 1000 years, or blow away and just hang on a tree, or smother a bloody I don’t know, marlin in the sea? Why????????? And why would you spend your day blowing up 500 balloons???

Arghhhhhh it’s going to be such a long day.

What is wrong with Idasha?

amusedbush · 17/12/2018 16:47

And a parent at a school I know called their daughter Idasha, but spelt like this..I-a

BINGO!

Every weird name thread on any forum, Facebook page or otherwise has at least one person claiming to know of a ladasha.

There is couple about to be sentenced who did actually give their baby the middle name Adolf (and yes after hitler). They aren’t being sentenced for that (but I hope the judge adds on months anyway to the loathesome pair of nazis).

Someone explain idasha please? Tried googling but not getting anything? I don’t get it.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 17/12/2018 19:51

L-a (la-dasha). It’s supposedly a name that may or may not exist.

ikltownofboothlehem · 17/12/2018 19:51

It's supposed to be Ldasha but it's an urban myth.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 17/12/2018 19:53

I can imagine someone somewhere thinking ‘hmmmmm, why not?’

Blii · 17/12/2018 19:54

Ahhh ok I’m with you! No wonder I didn’t get any results with idasha Grin
So it’s a dash in a name
Silly

Genuinely confused, did you not read my post?

GabsAlot · 17/12/2018 21:32

there was a couple recently in the news for being in a whitge supremist gang and calling their child hitler

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 17/12/2018 21:37

It’s an urban myth, yes we get it.

ikltownofboothlehem · 17/12/2018 21:40

HisDis - sorry yes but someone was still asking about it and they thought it was I-a (Idasha) rather than L-a (Ldasha) so couldn't find it on Snopes.

Maelstrop · 17/12/2018 21:53

Hamlet? Why the fuck did you name your kid after a cigar?

First laugh I've had all day, thank you! Hilarious, this really tickled me. 😀

HidDis · 17/12/2018 21:57

Thanks ikltownofboothlehem, I appreciate that.

SubtitlesOn · 17/12/2018 23:06

There is a lady prisoner called Idasha in USA

SubtitlesOn · 17/12/2018 23:08

I was trying to work out if it was a rude word or slang that I didn't know

Vivianebrezilletbrooks · 18/12/2018 01:59

The couple who named their kid adolf I knew an ex of hers when she was still with them. She was a horrible person. She got 10 years I heard. Her ex seemed ok and he wasn't one of them but she was nasty but I guess she must have hid her real self as I'd never have known she was like that had I not read it in the news.

NaughtToThreeSadOnions · 18/12/2018 04:18

Yep every time theres a lets take the mick out of "outthere" childrens names ledasha/ldashia and ohh aldolf come up.

They are as about as reall as this thread ie NOT

i get that it seems most of MN dont like different names but bullying and shit stiring with myths is ridiclous

Unfinishedkitchen · 18/12/2018 06:55

I got to the end of page one and wondered whether people actually believe this story???

Booboo66 · 18/12/2018 07:09

I saw a KV111lyn (Kaitlyn) once in a kids art competition. I mean I suppose it could have been made up for a laugh but I suppose you never know. I also read about an ABCDE prionounced absidee. That one is definitely real as it was asob stirybabout being laughed at at an airport complete with photo of boarding cards. Apparently there are quite a few ABCDE’s around. I’d not be so sure la-sha doesn’t exist.

MNHQ please contact the OP for an update!

ChesterGreySideboard · 18/12/2018 15:03

I've seen 'KV111lyn' in a Take a Break style magazine. I assumed it was a pisstake.

TisTheSeasonForPigsInBlankets · 18/12/2018 16:31

I'm all for some unique names but that poor girl having it spelt like that 🙈

NaughtToThreeSadOnions · 18/12/2018 18:22

Ok i'm listening to five live news and one of the headlines is "the neo nazi couple who named their child adolf has neen jailed for 11 and half years" it sound like they were naming their child adolf

Only it was her middle name and they were jailed because were because their in a far right terror organisations but yeah i think naming your child adolf will raise a few concerns

GabsAlot · 19/12/2018 13:31
