Moondog - that's the reporter that said those things - just pointing out what I should imagine were some pretty obvious things to the naked eye

The same article says that

"Louise is not inclined to blame the government for her difficulties. She is grateful for the money she gets every week and doesn't think her life would be much enhanced by increased payments."

Ugh......hate that word!!!! Have a neighbour who uses it constantly,it sounds so 'rough'

DSM · 24/03/2009 21:40

I'm not stuck up either love, and have no qualms about the word cunt. I am not prudish, nor easily offended, certainly not by the use of a word like cunt.

chegirl · 24/03/2009 21:45

Personally I hate the word but sometimes its just the only one that seems appropriate.

mizzidee · 24/03/2009 21:46

Is that what you call your partner when your mad & tell your children that its exceptable to say??? ..jesus no wonder you all critizise my posts so much..lol you need help. you call the word cunt DECENT.. jesus, yeah you deffently were DRAGGED UP love, good & proper,your mother needs to go to jail. Privert boarding schools you learn words like CUNT! well well, it is always the unexpected that seem to fail society. peodos nonses come from churches too. HHMmm..! mumsnet is full of weirdos, some of you are on this thread too.

FAQinglovely · 24/03/2009 21:48

yea well my private boarding school had people from all walks of life, it was actually assisted places, rather that scholarships, so we had everyone there from the "cunts" like me to the toff whose daddy gave him enough pocket each month that he could have bought a small plane each month (we all like him - he used to take us all out to McDonalds LOL).

'Privert boarding schools you learn words like CUNT! well well, it is always the unexpected that seem to fail society. peodos nonses come from churches too'

Do you read the Sun perchance?

DSM · 24/03/2009 21:49

There are a lot of things I do and say that I wouldn't do or say in front of children. Not just my own, any children. I am an adult, and as such, I am entitled to behave as one when there are no children around.

though in this case, that might be where I failed, assuming I was in the company of adults.

How was your 'Privert boarding school' FAQ?

'peodos nonses come from churches too.'
.. I have no words.

FAQinglovely · 24/03/2009 21:51

ooooo just realised that the last post of mizzi's was a double dig at me - oooo I'm so offended, me that went to private school and I go to church PMSL.

No, cunt doesnt seem appropiate.. if it does spring to mind when your upset,then all that does is basically show what type of person you are. If i am angry the word cunt does not even enter my mind. I think its vulgar. I would not date a man if he was too use hat word in any situation what so ever. Its common, its rough.

FAQinglovely · 24/03/2009 21:51

"I am entitled to behave as one when there are no children around."

but I think we do have a child around

DSM · 24/03/2009 21:51

Hmm.. the way that reads is as if I am getting at you there FAQ! I do apologise, please allow me to rephrase:

FAQinglovely · 24/03/2009 21:53

poshwellies · 24/03/2009 21:53

DSM · 24/03/2009 21:53

'I would not date a man if he was too use hat word in any situation'

God, I know what you mean. I can't stand when a man talks about headwear.

DSM · 24/03/2009 21:54

PMSL Poshwellies and FAQ!

GypsyMoth · 24/03/2009 21:54

I'm with mizzi on this one ladies!!!!

It's horrible. And there's no way I'm easily offended. I just cringe when I hear it!

FAQinglovely · 24/03/2009 21:56

yea but Tiffany -at least it's been around as a vulgar/rude word for 100's of years, it's real offensive word, unlike "dean"

I think I am starting to prefer dean. And I am a cunt advocate.

I am going to start using it all the time, and see how long it takes to catch on.

I tell you what, there are some right deans on this thread.

FAQinglovely · 24/03/2009 21:58

not to be read by the faint hearted - there's pretty vulgar language from the word go

OP posts:
mizzidee · 24/03/2009 21:59

Well actualy privert boarding schools dont mix toffs with commoners because they money buys a different class of living. So dont try that on FQlovely
