i quite like the 'i;m loving' i just like the sentiment but i accept that it is just as bad as all the other stuff.

GoatisLOLing · 09/07/2008 22:18

oh i am in a frenzy of mild irratation.

I hate it in cafes when young people say "Can I GET a cappuccino/latte/whatever"

Can I have! Have! HAVE!!!!

Desiderata · 09/07/2008 22:31

Hi Guys!

That is soooooooooooooo not true!

Pavlovthecat · 09/07/2008 22:34

...so they say..

WHO?

MaryAnnSingleton · 09/07/2008 22:41

it should be ;may I have...' ! can I get is totally vile and I agree about mate and cheers - I have a male friend who signs off emails with 'cheers' and it makes me feel cross for some reason - it's so blokey/matey. Actually bookshop lady today was saying cheers which surprised me but didn't make me feel too grumpy.

I'm LIKE SOOOOOOO agreeing with you Desiderata

ARRRRGGGHHHHHHHHH

Bloody irritating woman on the sky + advert -I could quite merrily wring her neck Whoever wrote the script for that ad should be dealt with swiftly. It's all LIKE SOOOOOOO much easier now she has Sky+ - apparently life was very trying for her when she had to make sure she was at home to watch her favourite programme. Goodness knows how she managed to cope with the pressure of it all

Desiderata · 09/07/2008 23:30

Then we're agreed, mousey.

People who say that need to have PRICK tattoed upon their forehead.

And on that note, I'm away to my bed. dh is due home in half an hour, and if I'm not asleep by then, God knows what will happen.

Good night, lovely women.

MaryAnnSingleton · 10/07/2008 10:49

um, no !

CoteDAzur · 10/07/2008 12:07

onebatmother - 'ecstacy shrinkage'? Is that what they called easily losing extra weight without even dieting?

onebatmother · 10/07/2008 13:38

if you mean from your penis, cote, then yes.

madamez · 10/07/2008 13:42

People who talk about 'intimacy' when they mean either shagging or talking about shagging make me want to beat them with a stick.

onebatmother · 10/07/2008 13:46

that's their intention, madamez

Swedes · 10/07/2008 13:49

Sky+ easytune thingy should be in the House of Bath catalogue.

themoon66 · 10/07/2008 13:49

People who say 'I'm good' when you ask how they are. Grrrr.

Guadalupe · 10/07/2008 13:50

I have never heard anyone say loved up except meaning on drugs either

Guadalupe · 10/07/2008 13:51

BIL says 'its all good' and he wears loafers

Swedes · 10/07/2008 13:52

Loved up means shagged shitless doesn't it?
