Sorry am on phone so apologies if this makes no sense but he was doing t-Rex in Asda so i slapped his arm (not hard obviously) and he got really cross and said he'd stand however he wants and stormed off. It was really embarrassing as loads of people were staring and he'd told me to remind him anyway! He's acting like nothing has happened now. Aibu to not just let it drop?

Moonlight I did think so, but it's sods law that I'm the one person people will take seriously!

SPsFanjoHarboursDeadCats · 19/06/2012 23:42

I feel the need to get down n T-Rex it out.

nothing to do with drinking

MoonlightandRoses · 19/06/2012 23:43

True - although we've managed a whole 227 posts so far!

Also, I see someone has just resurrected the 'Wine on the Wall' thread in here (AIBU) - had always thought that one made it to Classics too.

[Waits for the first serious post of thread]

IneedAbetterNicknameIn2012 · 19/06/2012 23:47

I nearly wet myself reading wine on the wall!

But I can tell you all that Adam didn't get a puppy, and his boyfriend left him for someone else! But it's ok, he's on a boozy lads holiday now in Costa del somewhere Grin

SPsFanjoHarboursDeadCats · 19/06/2012 23:51

Awww glad it turned out to be a happy ending for Adam. Shame the same can't be said for the wasp

MoonlightandRoses · 20/06/2012 00:19

And what about Sharon, will no-one think of poor Sharon? Grin

SPsFanjoHarboursDeadCats · 20/06/2012 00:30

I'm sure Sharon's fine. She will be waiting for her one true T-Rex

MoonlightandRoses · 20/06/2012 00:38

the hoor Well, that's all right then - all's well that ends well. Grin

ShullBit · 20/06/2012 00:44

I now have a headache after reading all that drivel.

I am wondering what part the DS has in all this. They say it's the quiet ones you have to watch out for...

cakeismysaviour · 20/06/2012 00:50

This is my new favourite thread. Worth having insomnia for. :)

tartyflette · 20/06/2012 00:55

OK, but how does (a) T-rex stand? is it sort of ... up on hind legs, front paws under chin or something like that?

But it's certainly a bit weird if it's a bloke doing it.

MoonlightandRoses · 20/06/2012 01:08

Tarty bit like this - once you've snatched his shopping basket away...

IVantToBeAlone · 20/06/2012 02:12

Proof, if ever it was needed, that some of our population are indeed insane.

Frankie by Sharon Sledge (little known 5th member)

I was walking down the street one day
I saw a Ttrex with his girlfriend Frankie
Do you remember me?

You looked at me and then I blushed
Cause I remembered when I loved Barney much
Way back when we were friends
Going together but then he 'owled' me

Frankie do you remember me?

You were house no. 15
I was no. 12
It was a bummer
When he threw that wine

I wanted 'Spiderman' to be mine
was thrilled by 'Moleman' cos Love is blind

hey frankie do you remember me
Frankie do you remember

Oh how the wasp went down down down
All you did was run around around
You'll never know how many I went through

Frankie do you remember do you remember me mario frankie

I followed you to Asda Deli
You told him off then it all began
I looked into his owlish eyes
Said to myself he's cuddling baskets again

Hey Frankie do you remember me

Oh how you brought him down down down
All he did was mince around around
You'll never know how much fun it is to do

musical interlude of doing a trex shuffle

Frankie do you remember me do you remember
I'm Sharon or Adam or Mario Frankie
My Barnie my Spidey my Moley Baby
Frankie

< now off to ride a white swan. Ciao>

FannyFifer · 20/06/2012 06:29

Owl, spiderman and mole? [weeps]

OlaRapaceFru · 20/06/2012 06:37

I've just read both threads , I can't believe I missed the wine on the wall thread last year Shock.

So the OP's DH decided not to go to Oz with Shazza, but stay with the OP doing T-rex impersonations in the supermarket? Confused Grin

giraffesCantFitInThePalace · 20/06/2012 06:51

I don't think it is the phone that is disjointed

tara0202 · 20/06/2012 07:00

Oops, I.thought t+Rex did tiger feet! Must check with my mum next time re 70's pop music.

I do hope there's another thread like this tonight. It made cluster bfing so much more bearable!

weaselm4 · 20/06/2012 07:03

I think we need photographic evidence of FrankieAnne's OH's trex/mole/spiderman/owl. Then we can judge just how appropriate they are for Asda.

MinnieBar · 20/06/2012 07:22

Doggiemama: 'Did he shout "boom boom aka laka laka boom"?'

Genuinely LOLed at that one.

At least he wasn't doing a reverse pterodactyl like him wot won The Apprentice a few years back. That would be embarrassing. Especially in Waitrose.

MinnieBar · 20/06/2012 07:25

Have some sympathy people. It's not easy being a t-rex?

TantrumsAndBalloons · 20/06/2012 07:27

I. AM. FUCKING. BAFFLED.

Dawndonna · 20/06/2012 07:31

Tara
Mud did tiger feet.

hellhasnofurylikeahungrywoman · 20/06/2012 07:39

I am bookmarking for later.

I have a long and boring course today in the depths of Wisbech. I must not check in on this thread while there or else I will also suffer the horrified looks of fellow attendees as I snort to stifle my laughter.

Goosfraba · 20/06/2012 07:40

I'm actually crying with laughter!

Great way to start the day, thanks OP Grin
