dear/darling child? how can you bear to talk like this?

[Andula]

I've been scouting around the site for a few weeks, looking for info on parentnig issues (soon to be stepmother) and I was wondering how do you bear to talk like this about your family members? What's wrong with you all??

Hahaha you insult people for using shorthand and then type 'lol @'

Pots....kettles.

Depends what sort of humour you're after. It's Friday, after all....

Getting wierd déjà vu.

Teehee Monsterchild. Agreed.

Andula, I think you are misunderstanding the tone if the messages and the point of having acronyms.

You might feel at home on the Fathers 4 Justice talkboards OP?

What a pleasant first post

I always thought it stood for "dear" myself.

What else are we OP?

Oh, that sort of humour.

Ya. I find a few insults always helps.

Lol? LOL?

No. That's worse than DC. Much.

Think you could be doing with a yourself OP!

I think someone's trying to kickstart the weekend.

Bless. Another one.

It may have been intended to be tongue in cheek, but you made the crucial error that it wasn't actually funny. We really are a nest of vipers when someone gets all superior about their humour without actually displaying any

Ah balls. That doesn't scan right. Can't be arsed to correct it though...

yes MamaMumra, you may have a point

Oh, see, you were doing quite well with the first part. It would have tied in nicely with the ParentA thread recently. And then the insults. You just aren't a natural at this humour business are you?

Problem is, my scrumdiddlyumpciousbooboobabskiddywink is just too long to type every time. Ds is so much easier.

I think Andula is having a wee go and trollery. She wants much more of a reaction!

You might want to learn how to spell as well OP as your post says you are here;

"looking for info on parentnig issues"

Oooh, no, don't start telling people off for that. I type 'nig' and 'teh' all the time when I am on my phone and don't realise until it is too late.

It's too cold for a bun fight. I'm conserving my strength.

Oh and rename this forum "parenting for the (mostly) uptight and humourless"

with the adjunct 'except of course for Andula, who has the kerraaziest sense of humour evah, natch.'

If you don't like us you don't have to be here do you. Maybe another online forum would suit you better.

no! throws bun

Did the bun fight expression come about because Camilla had buns thrown at her in Sainsburys when her and charles went public?
