Am sick of the over use of this word...

Nothing that a trip to the Spa Angst can't put right. DS2 and I are recovering well.

I like moomooface's confusion of 'Heads up' and 'Eyes down'. Image of shouting 'Bingo!' during oral sex.

Or "2 fat ladies!" or "down on your knees!" (which is the shout out for no 43, apparently )

2 fat ladies - cliquety-clique

Threadworm - might it not be quite difficult to shout anything during oral sex?

Depends which end you're on, surely, swedes?

All this talk of two fat ladies having oral sex has me revising what I thought I knew about Swedes.

I think if you're on the other end it's called rimming

Giving end or receiving end, I meant, lol

For years, until it became more widely popular quite recently, I always associated 'feisty' as a word used by people with Caribbean background, and assumed it was a caribbean word. But I can find no evidence of that. I always took it to mean 'spirited', 'assertive', 'able to speak up for oneself' - and therefore a compliment, except as intended by a strict carribean woman to her child - which was the context in which I most often heard it.

Sorry to interrupt the oral sex development.

I think it;s gone as far as it can go, blu. Tho Swedes may yet prove me wrong.

Caribbean is pron. faisty though, isn't it? I always half-associate it with 'face', to mean standing, ikwim.

Yes, Blu, to her child. That's the thing. Whether used as a compliment or not, it always carries an implication about the status of the person being described. And has anyone heard of an adult male being described as feisty?

Feisty is polite speak for deranged. I think Heather Mills is feisty. Someone on another thread used bonkers to describe Heather Mills - to me bonkers suggests eccentricity and off the wallness. That isn't Heather Mills.

No it isn't!

And Heather Mills isn't either - she's aggressive, deluded, self-important and, yes, bonkers but she's not feisty!

WendyW - LOL I should have prefixed my post For me feisty is ......

Somebody put a post somewhere else of a cut & pasted clinical definition of a narcissist

• and there you go. Re HM. In a nutshell (seed pod? bulb? metaphor muddle)

Oh nonononono, imvho, Heather Mills is not feisty.

I've always theought of feisty as a great word. Small and tough, punching above your weight.

heather mills is curmudgeonly, and cantankerous not feisty in the least.and a total bampot

Heather Mills is not feisty; she is mentalist.

Yes threadie, like a teenie-weenie pygmy who is jolly brave. It's not really complementary, I suspect?

Damn, forgot to change name back. So tell me, can you possibly guess who Sir Paul actually is?

I gather he was a member of some sort of boy band.
