Shouting at me in the supermarket

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?

OP posts:

I've got the wrong face!!!!

My life is worthless :(

HipHopOpotomus · 22/06/2012 16:35

8 pages & I still have no idea WHO was standing like T-Rex! :)

SillyBeardyDaddyman · 22/06/2012 16:36

He was! Him!

SillyBeardyDaddyman · 22/06/2012 16:36

Honestly, pay attention!

ExitPursuedByABear · 22/06/2012 16:36

OPs DH. Apparently.

Keep up.

MinnieBar · 22/06/2012 16:36

Is your DH Colin Mochrie? Or, indeed, his cat?

MamaMumra · 22/06/2012 16:38

He was doing a t-rex. YANBU.

HipHopOpotomus · 22/06/2012 16:58

Roar! Love it!

Standing like a T-Rex - thinking of a way to work this into my weekend.

ThatVikRinA22 · 22/06/2012 17:32

glad to see that was all clarified then Grin

so in short, its only necessary to assault him if he does T-rex, but not if he does owl. spiderman or variations on the theme of "mole"......

jolly good.

Can I do the t-Rex if I don't look like Tobey McGuire?

picnicbasketcase · 22/06/2012 18:42

My DH sometimes does a Frankenstein's servant Igor thing in supermarkets, walks like he's got a hunchback, screws his face up and limps around calling me Mistress.

I've never slapped him for it though.

weaselm4 · 22/06/2012 19:01

Stop it, stop it, I can't breaaathe!

Is it laughter-induced asthma, or am I sitting like triceratops, thus restricting airflow to the lungs?

I'm not in a supermarket.

SPsFanjoHarboursDeadCats · 22/06/2012 19:03

I'm currently sat like The Hunchback of Notredame!

Not in public so no slapping involved

tasmaniandevilchaser · 22/06/2012 19:18

I started off so well, totally knew what OP meant about TRex, not sure whether to be proud or disturbed about that..... I'm ok with 10am TRex flash mob in Asda. After wearing a fake moustache around central London for a day, that will be a piece of piss.

But I'm totally lost with owl and rabbit. and Tony Maguire on Canvey Island. Owl??! Rabbit??! Does he leave hundreds of pellet droppings behind him?

hoodoo12345 · 22/06/2012 19:35

This is probably the funniest thread ever!

Thanks T rex:)

SillyBeardyDaddyman · 22/06/2012 19:37

TheOne who's tobey Maguire? Oh, you must mean tony Maguire! He does a good Spiderman, but only if he's got the right face.

KenLeeeee · 22/06/2012 19:44

I'm not sure I can pull of T-Rex in Asda, but I can offer you 'gazelle being stalked by a lion', perhaps in the Co-Op...

KenLeeeee · 22/06/2012 19:45

*off, not 'of'

TheOneWithTheHair · 22/06/2012 19:45

Sorry. Tony McGuire.

Just read the wine throwing thread. I actually cried. Grin

SillyBeardyDaddyman · 22/06/2012 19:47

I'm going to meerkat in waitrose.

SPsFanjoHarboursDeadCats · 22/06/2012 19:51

I'm going to antelope in Lidl

CockyPants · 22/06/2012 19:54

'he told you to remind him??' that he was standing like t Rex?? Holding his balls or just general growling? I'm at a loss here...

CockyPants · 22/06/2012 19:55

I read the wine throwing one too. Do you think that poster knows t Rex couple??

Socknickingpixie · 22/06/2012 19:56
