DH really embarrassed me earlier

We were invited around to friends for dinner tonight. They got the wii out and we had a play around on some of their party games. We were having a really good laugh. Then when it was my turn I was doing this ski jump thing where you have to bend down and DH shouted "OPEN YOUR LEGS!" but in a really rough 'docker' type voice. Everyone was in hysterics, one was actually having trouble beathing and had to leave the room she was laughing so much and DH just kept repeating it over and over again. I tried to ignore him, laugh along and carry on with the game but I felt like everyone was laughing at me.

I didn't cause a scene there but I'm really annoyed with him. he says I'm being unreasonable and childish. Wouldn't you lot react the same way or am I making a big deal out of nothing?

Uh oh - this threads all going a bit wrong.

Keep it in perspective - it's all a bit of a laugh isn't it.

i have more bonhomie than pretending to ski in my friend's lounge.what next virtual knitting?extreme ironing

girlandboy · 05/02/2009 22:58

Well I enjoy playing tennis in my lounge.

And I'm absolutely fab at cow racing.

OP - I think you should have come back at your dh with a witty riposte! Don't take it too personally. He made a joke, but didn't know when to stop. I should just let it go, it's not worth getting upset over.

moondog · 05/02/2009 22:59

Bonhomie SM?!
You wouldn't know the meaning of the word!

MamaG · 05/02/2009 23:01

ROFL at suwoo "I won't be opening my legs for you tonight, knobhead"

girlandboy · 05/02/2009 23:02

Bonhomie definition - A pleasant and affable disposition; geniality

Don't really understand SM's sentence.......

moondog · 05/02/2009 23:02

Quite

MamaG · 05/02/2009 23:03

and ROFL at moondog "If my social life consisted of pretending to ski i someone's living room i would slit my wrists."

TheYearOfTheCat · 05/02/2009 23:08

SM - snurk.

(SM's no 1 fan here) (not in a scary Kathy Bates Misery way though)

girlandboy · 05/02/2009 23:09

Cow racing in my lounge is far preferable to real life cow racing in a snowy field!

tiredsville · 05/02/2009 23:09

Yes I cackled at moondog's comment too, but like girlandboy am partial to a spot of tennis in the lounge.

moondog · 05/02/2009 23:10

cow racing????

Fuck me.

Why?????

Don't you have something more useful to do with your time?

tiredsville · 05/02/2009 23:12

Ok, now moondog is not funny.

girlandboy · 05/02/2009 23:12

Yes!

MamaG · 05/02/2009 23:13

I'm very pleased that we don't have a farking wii

moondog · 05/02/2009 23:15

It's nowt but that antiquated habit formerly known as 'talking' when the Moondogs have friends call by.

MamaG · 05/02/2009 23:17

TBH I'd be horrified if I went round to a mate's house for alcohol and talk and was expected to race cows ont telly

WideWebWitch · 05/02/2009 23:18

lol at Moondog's indignation.

moondog · 05/02/2009 23:19

So would I.
I am still recovering from the fact that the last time I went to one of my friend's houses for dinner, we had to stop and watch final of some Goddawful SAndrew Lloyd Webber thing to find a Nancy.

Unbelievable. Like I give a shit.

MamaG · 05/02/2009 23:19

God thats dreadful

moondog · 05/02/2009 23:20

So was the wine.
