Why? were you worried you might have to put petrol in your car if they stopped helping you out?

mollyroger · 19/09/2009 18:30

ok, now i'm really going to hurl

BalloonSlayer · 19/09/2009 18:32

I suppose you're right, she will get a BF, but he will never get in her car with her... which I guess is what she'd see as only right and proper.

Leaves more room for the shopping bags containing t-shirts with diamante images of Piglet on them.

pinkthechaffinch · 19/09/2009 18:32

and they just adore shoes, and shopping, and are orgasmic over shoe shopping.

BalloonSlayer · 19/09/2009 18:33

OMG! They are all grown up! (Physically.)

MrsDanversWorksForTheDM · 19/09/2009 18:34

I was about to say Yanbu,as I associate it with middle-aged women who call themselves 'shoe-girls' and whose voices get squeakier around men [shudder]

then I realised that I don't like fish or food with eyes, or drive on motorways if I can help it ...

mollyroger · 19/09/2009 18:34

anyone else ever noticed a correlation between the pinker and fluffier and more sparkly a grown woman dresses and the hard-as-nailness of her personality when she does snare a man?

BalloonSlayer · 19/09/2009 18:36

And also the same correlation applies to the girliness of their name.

Stand up Katie Price!

noddyholder · 19/09/2009 18:37

They always have little things hanging from their handbags yuck!

BalloonSlayer · 19/09/2009 18:39

GetOrfMoiLand · 19/09/2009 19:07

Girly girls won't drive on motorways and get all shrieky and giigly if they have to drive up hills and round sharp corners (aka country roads in hilly areas).

They also refuse to drive in London. Why? What do you think is going to happen as soon as you venture inside the M25?

chachalepew · 19/09/2009 19:10

Maybe the "powered by fairydust" cars have something to do withh Steiner, don't they believe in faries?

claw3 · 19/09/2009 19:11

LOL Bodeniites or should i say te-he girly giggle.

OrmIrian · 19/09/2009 19:13

I have seen a car that was supposedly powered by fairydust. It also had pink cushions on the back seat, teddy bears and little fluffy ......things hanging in the window. Funnily it seemed to have an exhaust pipe that was pumping out the usual crap - don't think it was fairy farts.

OrmIrian · 19/09/2009 19:14

All these things that girly girls can't do are things that I couldn't do when I was about 17. Hmm...do you think that is cos 'girly girls' simply have retarded development?

TsarChasm · 19/09/2009 19:14

Girly-girls have curly baby handwriting incorporating smiles and kisses for full stops.

GetOrfMoiLand · 19/09/2009 19:15

Did it have a pink furry steering wheel cover? And did the headlights have eyelashes (have seen this on a mini). Think that is the mark of a true girly car.

GetOrfMoiLand · 19/09/2009 19:16

And circles instead of dots above the i's. Using lilac gel (scented perhaps) gel pens.
