I pretend posh Chocolate is spicy.

Battybonkers · 06/02/2022 22:55

I also hide the nice crisps behind the broccoli

notacooldad · 06/02/2022 22:55

Chocolate gets hidden in the veg rack!

I know William Bee's Wonderful World of Trucks off by heart.

People sneak into my room in he middle of the night, climb into my bed and fall asleep on top of my head...and I don't notice till morning.

I've had to get to grips with pronouns

I cleaned shit off another persons hands today.

Intentionally covered hands.

I quit.

Yesterday I found myself trying to stick a banana back together - it seemed like I should at least try given that it was soooo important that the banana should no longer be broken.

I spend at least an hour a day hovering outside the toilet door in case I’m needed, and telling the occupant I’m there to wipe their bum when they’re ready. Admittedly this could just be a niche hobby, so the other clue I shall give after being asked approximately 2 billion times already, the answer to the question ‘why?’ is because I said so.

Thewindwhispers · 06/02/2022 23:03

I stay up late every night even though I’m tired because it is so lovely and quiet.

Sister finger, sister finger, where are yoooou?

Shergill15 · 06/02/2022 23:05

I also do not talk about Bruno on a daily basis and have an assortment of indoor rocks and dead flowers. There are stuffed bears in my house whose clothes are nicer and more expensive than mine. And a hidden stash of nice chocolate in the salad drawer of the fridge

@Filthyslattern

I lay awake at night worrying whether a 22 year old ma i don't live with is safe and happy and getting enough sleep.
This is me too.

I can make a reasonable cover out of several small baby blankets

I just rushed through the supermarket as fast as possible and I didn’t dare go down the middle aisle in case there were exciting toys there. Wine though. I bought wine.

Mogwig · 06/02/2022 23:14

I have the best weekend lined up. Building Playmobil stables and playing with it. I've always wanted it ...

That's true, isn't it?!: )

If I have to brake in the car I throw out my left arm to protect my passenger, any passenger of any age 😂

I buy garments in miniature that cost a fortune and I never wear

My toothpaste tube never has the lid put back on.

My neighbour hurtles down out street at 15mph and I want to call 101.

There is a sticky dinosaur on our 15 foot ceiling.
