Will no one rid me of this Furbulent Beast? Awful toys you can't switch off

[RooneyWanderingStara]

Or at least the children have TOLD me they can't be switched off.

The furbies in this house are fast heading for extradition to the shed. On what grounds I cannot be concise but I am working on it.

Also on my personal shitlist this meteorologically challenged Christmas:

The V tech Toot Toot vehicles. Heard the songs? Once was enough. They are LEAVING THE BUILDING (I'm sure it was MN's fault, they were on that recommended email at least once)

Please feel free to add Satan's contribution to your own festivities.

Very pleased with these tips. Thankyou SO much.

I will relay them all to the children. I somehow doubt they will want to turn off the damned things though anytime soon, seeing as ds1 just showed me a picture on his app of a toilet containing what can only be assumed to be furby shite.

WTAF? He thinks it is excellent.

haha ours pooed out a puffer fish earlier! You can also make it vomit and feed it back to it!

Dp went to get himself a refill of wine, dd1 and I both screamed in unison " don't turn on the light, you'll wake the furby!!!!!!"

We found that repeating an action had an effect on it, try rubbing its tummy for about five mins to see if that helps

Crying with laughter at this post!! We have 2 in this house, and they are currently quiet. Bit scared they will wake up in the middle of the night!

Do they wake up randomly in the night?

DD has taken mine hers to bed. I'm tempted to go get it once she is asleep

You'll all be thrilled to know that little Kee-Koh slept through on her first night at chez Candycoatedwaterdrops.

I cannot get over the fact that they shit. A virtual shit in a virtual toilet....

Ours is asleep at the moment. Thank God

I picked ds2s furby up just now, and it said "who are you?" And started to cry.

He carries it everywhere and does whatever it wants. It's going to be a spoilt brat.

Whatever dd2's doesn't like he says 'I'm not feeling it'

I think dd2 is a little disappointed it's not got a cute baby voice like her friend's!

Kay boo slept through the night but is now burping and farting

This thread is killing me. "Ours slept through the night"... "Rub it's tummy?"... "Lay it down and it will snore"

Haven't genuinely LOLed at anything for a while.

Merry Christmas to the Furby afflicted :)

DD2 has gone a tad PFB with the Furby. And I have become the interfering Grandmother!

Bloody hell, yes the toot toot cars.
I thought getting 6 of them for DS(2)'s birthday was bad enough. I felt myself come out in a cold sweat when dp said 'you know, I think mums bought more of those fucking cars for DS. And the garage as well'. I hoped that it wasn't the case. But it was.

Now we have the sodding track, garage and 3 more of them.

I've tried leaving them at almost-PILs and in cars but they always come back.

my hard of hearing 90 year old grandma kept saying 'what did you say' when nobody had said anything then we realised it was the bloody furby chattering away at the right frequency for her hearing aids

My mum bought Ds(5) a keyboard with no headphone socket!

And sent me a text on Christmas day saying, "ha ha ha!"

Cow

I actually think Kee-Koh is a little bit constipated. She's done one big crap since being with us but since then, she's only done little ones. Maybe some senakot is needed?

I swear to god mine just said, "Blow job okay."

I seem to have lost my iPad to the damn thing & am having to mn on my phone! Can't get the bloody app to download onto DD's kindle fire - HELP!
