  1. You say things to your dh like "I'm just going to check on dd" & he's like "who?"
merrylissiemas · 20/12/2006 07:41

yULeYSEES · 20/12/2006 09:16

roflmao at this lot

I agree QP, poor little face, no hat for or either....so so But at least they have some colour, the others are.....well lets face it.....rather custard coloured. Think I'd rather be red purple or green any day?

Someone you will probably never meet irritates the life out of you

yULeYSEES · 20/12/2006 09:19

yes noddy but at least you just ignore their convos, not like RL where you have to keep seeing their slapped arse face

WeWishUAMerryXmasNANappyNewYr · 20/12/2006 09:30

For me, It's when DH comes home from wotk and I am about to tell him everyone's news on MN! and I start to tell him about something I've discussed on here(eg the Suffolk Murders) with someone I've never met and I realise I CAN'T explain who the person is. ....and I've been at home all day waiting for a delivey so he knows I haven't seen any of my RL mates!

MistletoeMiggins · 20/12/2006 10:32

definitely the abbrev - have to stop myself writing SIL etc but it takes sooo long to write it properly

realising that I get most of the gossip from "In the News) and opinions on things are from MNetters so I have to say "this person on a forum I go on said...."

merrylissiemas · 20/12/2006 10:34

i give him updates on peoples lives

MerryChipmonkAndAHappyNewey · 20/12/2006 11:33

Your dh knows who Hunkermunker, cod and moondog are.

yULeYSEES · 20/12/2006 11:34

maybe we should make christmas cards with to our ILs on etc....

yULeYSEES · 20/12/2006 11:35

you're talking about the xmas meet and saying, well I was dancing with quootie pie and crunchie, norash is a great dancer and Saint George is as lovely as I knew she would be etc.....

WeWishUAMerryXmasNANappyNewYr · 21/12/2006 05:21

just realised that i even think in MN speak! whilst feeling a bit down i was thinking "but i love ds so much"

  1. when you think of something and think ooo i'llhave to write about that on MN

(after my thinking in MN speak, i proceeded to think that i would have to add it to this thread

  1. when you start to try and think of things you can start new threads on!!
