I was so devastated, I turned round and said. “Did you really mean to be so rude.

Sagradafamiliar · 19/07/2019 16:56

I'm tilting my head, raising one brow, pursing my lips and one hand is hoiking my busom while the other clutches my pearls.

@SlurpyMcSlurperFace I actually do lol at Drop Dead Fred. Especially when he looks up skirts and goes 'Cobwebs'. It's still funny now.

In fact I am going to watch it with my 5 year old ds this holidays. No doubt it's completely inappropriate, someone will log it with 101 and I am utterly vile for considering it. If ss come knocking I will blame you for reminding me of it. You ought to be ashamed hun.

LaMarschallin · 19/07/2019 17:01

Don't be so vile to the OP.
She obviously has issues/difficulties of which we know not of.

I'm just off to bawl out some random in-law for giving my DDc 2 (two!) grains of sugar.

I should of thought you'd of known that.

😂😂😂😂😂

(Ooh! First time I've ever used that emoji)

DogbertDogglesworth · 19/07/2019 17:14

I'm utterly mortified that you have created such a vile thread OP. It's made me incandescent with rage. I'm going to show it to my DH. He will rage on my behalf.
I'm shaking now as you have triggered my anxiety.
I'm going to log it with 101 due being furious at such a triggering thread that didn't contain a trigger warning.
I'm also going to report it to MN, the SS, Safeguarding and cafcass just to be sure.
As soon as I've walked the dog that is, which will probably find me crossing paths with a potential rapist or a paedophile hiding in the bushes, which will creep me out.

ContactLight · 19/07/2019 17:17

I'm APPALLED and really rather put out.

ReanimatedSGB · 19/07/2019 17:17

U OK hun?

LuckyLou7 · 19/07/2019 17:20

Send me your details, I'll PayPal you some money to tide you over.

Oh, this isn't a begging thread? Grin

Fuzzyend · 19/07/2019 17:24

Reported.

AlexaAmbidextra · 19/07/2019 17:39

You sound lovely OP.

ErrolTheDragon · 19/07/2019 17:44

I'm tilting my head, raising one brow, pursing my lips and one hand is hoiking my busom while the other clutches my pearls.

It's your judgy pants you're meant to hoik.
And anyway, if you can hoik your norks with one hand YABU to call them a 'bosom'.

Isthebigwomanhere · 19/07/2019 17:45

Bit op I can't really gage my level of utterly appalling fumingness unless I know the full back story!

It's sending my anxiety through the roof and I'm finding it all very triggering

Gide · 19/07/2019 18:06

There are some professionally offended people on here too. I can’t get too worked up about other peoples’ opinions on the Internet. I’m only here for the entertainment! (Partly, anyway, there is often excellent advice on here!)

MyOtherNameIsTaken · 19/07/2019 18:17

Cancel the cheque.

Pomegranatemolasses · 19/07/2019 18:31

Sat here literally shaking with rage.

CaMePlaitPas · 19/07/2019 18:43

LTB!

karala · 19/07/2019 18:45

You are so unreasonable - have you ever taken a parcel in for a neighbour and they haven't got round to picking it up so that you've had to go and actually talk to them? if you had then you wouldn't be making stupid threads

CuntyMcFuckerson · 19/07/2019 18:48

Everyone’s always DEVASTATED.

I'm sorry Tesco messed up your home delivery but get a grip.
Its always something trivial.

PookieDo · 19/07/2019 18:49

Everyone is always in agony too
AGONY

NoSauce · 19/07/2019 18:49

Yes so many posters uses anxiety as some sort of disclaimer if anyone should dare disagree with them.

Actionhasmagic · 19/07/2019 18:51

Outrageous

WatcherOfTheNight · 19/07/2019 19:09

This thread is guaranteed to get
Eleventymillion MNetters apocalyptic with
rage !

rosegoldwatcher · 19/07/2019 19:09

Oh put on your big girl pants and give your head a wobble. (I actually like those phrases and hope to be able to use them in real life sometime, for some trivial situation.)

Asta19 · 19/07/2019 19:17

I’m judging you OP

Sagradafamiliar · 19/07/2019 19:18

You're quite right, Errol I'm so enraged, I'm all sixes and sevens and can barely contain myself let alone focus on the right pose to express my utter, utter disgust and seething contempt.
