Fumming

No no no.

That would rhyme with bumming.

Fuming which rhymes with consuming.

And thank you for letting me get that out in this dark and forsaken little corner.

BellonaBelladonna · 07/04/2017 21:09

Fumming sounds terribly rude. Best saved for Friday nights at Center Parcs...

To be honest I'd be fumming if my DD had a love bite... She's only three Grin

Oh it's not only one thread or even just on here it's everywhere! I don't know if it's like when you buy a yellow car and you see yellow cars everywhere and my eyes are drawn to it.

I feel so much better now.

Write down all the emotions that it stirs up in you, then fold it up and put it in a Chester draws. You'll get passed it in the end.

Wolfiefan · 07/04/2017 21:48

I don't understand. They could of spell checked. I guess we have to except the error.

I love good fumm

LapdanceShoeshine · 07/04/2017 21:59

Courtesy of local buy & sell, may I add dinning tables?

elephantoverthehill · 07/04/2017 22:01

'Advise greatly appreciated'. Arrgggh. I know I am not perfect about these sorts of verbs and nouns, but 'advice' and 'advise' are my 'go to' to work which to use when you can't hear the difference.

NennyNooNoo · 07/04/2017 22:04

I'll raise a chester draws to your dinning table.

blackcherries · 07/04/2017 22:21

LettuceMash · 07/04/2017 22:23

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 07/04/2017 22:25

To all intensive purposes you might be right...

elephantoverthehill · 07/04/2017 22:43

Fee, fie, foe, fumm. Obs innit.

StealthPolarBear · 07/04/2017 22:46

Vilify

inappropriateraspberry · 07/04/2017 22:47

Villi file - vilify. Also can't stand people who 'brought' it at Tesco. You BOUGHT it, you didn't take for a little trip to Tesco and back!

ExplodedCloud · 07/04/2017 22:50

I love OPs who set out their stall clearly with a fumming in the title. You know where you are with them right from the start.

MissTakesOurMaid · 07/04/2017 22:51

Wasn't there a troll thread/classics thread - can't remember which just remember it being popular for a couple of weeks - where the OP had used 'I am FUMMING' instead of fuming and it became a bit of a saga?

I keep thinking of the name Louise, was Louise the one who fummed?

But yes OP I agree - fumming sounds like something rude and makes me itch a bit.
