there is an acronym list (see useful stuff under active convos etc)
but BLW = baby led weaning

Thank you Squonk - I've name changed a couple of times - but have always admitted it, hope that doesn't make me a troll - don;t like the sound of that!

You know. Every time people talk about trolls, I remember a song my mum used to sing to me and my sister at night.

After a story, she used to sing - I don't remember it all, just this bit

I'm a big bad troll and I'm mean
I don't mean maybe
I'm a big bad troll and I'm mean
You better believe it (growl out the word you)
I'm a big bad troll and I'm mean (draw out the 'i'm mean' for a big finish)

As I recall, she had to stand up while singing it, walk backwards out of the room (still singing it) and finish the last line as she got to the door at the same time as doing a big razamatazzy waving of her hands as she belted out the last line.

If she didn't, I wouldn't sleep.

Kids are weird!

oops - and thank you rubyslippers

fryalot · 28/06/2007 19:36

no problem with namechanging in itself - just when you do it with the express purpose of upsetting people and getting away with it because nobody knows who you are.

I have another troll song (for want of anything better to post)

It goes

I'm a troll
Rol-de-ro-hol
I'm a troll
Rol-de-ro-hol

Can't remember the rest but I think it goes on like that for a bit.

CatIsSleepy · 28/06/2007 19:45

NineUnlikelyTales · 28/06/2007 19:47

flightattendant · 28/06/2007 19:48

No honestly I have the tune and everything sdooting around in my head. Is there a way to write music on here and I can share it with you all.

It was from the 3 billygoats gruff btw.

nickytwotimes · 28/06/2007 19:48

i'm a troll roll de roll,
and i'll eat you for supper!

NineUnlikelyTales · 28/06/2007 19:48
