noooo! not children!!! we don't want to stir up that hornets nest do we!!!

no i mean hands up if you feel those Sheer Blonde Girls "alex and Brit" need a good slapping! i have never been so irritated by an advert and find them incredibley frightening!... do people like this really exist?... i fear they have been to sulky smoulder school to perfect their stares to the camera!!!

or horrors of horrors.... does it really mean i yearn for 'sheer blonde' hair! and am just jealous!

I don't think so!!!

who else do you think deserves a good slapping!!!???

I'd like to add the South London accent to the list.

I've been tring to shift my SL accent for years and it still creeps up behing me when I least expect it. I hate it!

Rhubarb · 08/07/2002 11:38

I seem to recognise that style of writing - not my dh but I might know who that is.....

WideWebWitch · 08/07/2002 14:12

Rhubarb, do you think it's SimonHoward in disguise?

PamT · 08/07/2002 14:21

JJ did complain about her DD looking at Mumsnet and occasionally posting on it a while ago. Wish I could remember which thread it was last week where someone said their husband had joined. I don't think this is SimonHoward it doesn't seem his style, but having said that I haven't seen anything from him for a couple of days.

Rhubarb · 09/07/2002 14:36

No, not SimonHoward, I'm not sure now. I do have a friend whose wife has posted here a couple of times and I know he looks at it from time to time. It's sort of his style of writing too, but as I said, I'm not sure, I'd have to ask him and he might not tell me!

middle aged English actresses who adopt the persona of a coy five year old.
Felicity bloody Kendal is the worst culprit.

Don't get me wrong, I've worked in telesales and I've seen it ffom the other side. However today I have been called 7 times in an hour by a machine that stops the phones ringing once its been answered by someone in a multi-wotsit type thing. I'm REALY ANNOYED. I answered it once and told them no I didn't want a credit card. It keeps ringing and I'm sure its the same people - everytime I get to it it stops - grrrrrrr..... I hate being annoyed with something you can't even see - but I still want to slap them

Azzie · 10/07/2002 12:29

I had a telesales person the other day who, when I told him that I wasn't interested in his double glazing, asked if my husband was at home!

Also one lying so-and-so who started his spiel by telling me that my dh had filled in and returned a consumer questionnaire - something dh would never ever do.

KS, I'll have to try that one, I'll put the phone on loudspeaker and let them listen to CBeebies whilst they are waiting - let them count their shinies

Lizzer · 10/07/2002 12:45

LOL PamT!!! Fantastic

jasper · 10/07/2002 13:05

Argh ks! The "I'm so cute and tiny in my husband's big shirt" brigade. Slap them all, especially when they do that thing with their hands curled up inside the sleeves.
( I do wear dhs shirts but that is because they FIT me )

Do you think its written into Julia Roberts contract that she has a 'wacky' scene where she tries on hats/wedding dresses etc to some groovy music? And she is contractually obliged to scream in that annoying girly way, making her eyes massive and then laughing like an old nag in Farmer Browns field?

Does anyone else think Julia Roberts' new massive lips look ridiculous? I also nominate Anthea Turner for a slap.

jodee · 10/07/2002 22:50

I'm not normally a 'give 'em a slap' person, but whoever thought up those Pot Noodle - the slag of snacks - ad, well, what a load of drivel.

janh · 11/07/2002 09:53

WWW, new massive lips? Has she got an extra pair? I thought she always had massive lips!

WideWebWitch · 11/07/2002 09:59

Janh, she did have massive lips but they're suddenly bigger, bizarre. Can't remember where I saw them though.

Mopsy · 11/07/2002 10:02

Oh scary! Massive lips for her massive gob
