Well come on... it has hasn’t it?

I know it’s been done to death “I remember when all was fields, joules and shark Hoovers” but Aibu to say... last month or so...

Or am I just getting old?

Jeez i've only just found out what you're all talking about! So 'nethuns' means 'netmums' because they say 'hun' alot?! Blimey that's a terrible play on words

Some people might point the error out but some people might not. They might, however, not bother reading further due to the error.

So what? Would anyone care? I'd be quite happy to not have a snobby nob contribute to my thread.

tinyteece01 · 10/11/2019 16:53

Some people do care or people wouldn’t be trying to have a conversation about it.

Those who point out errors should be making a perfect post themselves but invariably they cock up.

tinyteece01 · 10/11/2019 16:57

They sometimes make a mess of a post but hardly invariably.

Yes we’ve got that PortiaCastis. It’s not like you haven’t posted that before.

It's all so emotionally draining. Having to be so lovey all the time

shitpark · 10/11/2019 17:26

And some of those huns and xxx's seem a bit passive aggressive to me

PrincessMaryaBolkonskaya · 10/11/2019 17:47

Some times a ‘hun’ is def pass agg shit

Like a lol when it’s not a funny situation or the statement isn’t funny. Just a random lol

I don’t use lol myself. Prefer haha or haaaaaaaaaaaaa or hahahahahahaaha depending on how funny it is

Astonished at the number of people who are oblivious to "nethuns"

First time I saw it I got it, so it's not a "been on here for years" thing.

Wonder if they had an equivalent other than "nest of vipers" (which came from the Daily Fail anyway I think... or similar paper)
