We are being rather silly this morning.

Mariah Carey: All I want for Christmas is .......

YABU - YOU
YANBU - POO!

(DD reckons it is YOU, and I am trying to let her know that it is in fact, POO! Purely cos it makes her giggle!)

She has even tried to call in the services of Judge Judy and Mariah herself!

In fact, she has just sung the song "rejected, rejected, r-e-j-e-c-t-e-d rejected! at me cos someone agreed with her! )

Bit early for drinking, isn't it?

Clevererthanyou · 14/12/2019 11:19

Definitely poo because that song is shit

YouRemindMeOfTheBabelfish · 14/12/2019 11:24

My ex only felt xmas had started when he heard that song for the first time.

On that basis, I'm voting poo.

DD thinks I have cheated cos I have asked for help.

She has countered with eating a whole bowl of spinach if you agree with her!

@HamAndPineapple Meh. We all amuse ourselves in different ways :)

She also changes the words to
"Last Christmas I gave you my heart,
The very next day you sold it on eBay.
This year, to save me my tears,
I'll sell it to someone special"

"Last Christmas I gave you my heart,
The very next day you sold it on eBay.
This year, to save me my tears,
I'll sell it to someone special"

This is clever OP but in this household we know that the first line of George Michaels' hit is: "Last Christmas I gave you my fart. "

She has now changed it to
Last Christmas I gave you my heart, the very next day, sold gas on the ebay...
