Back to the ‘crisps’ they should be called soggys as they sound disgusting. I has misphonia, but I love crunchy crisps, but only if I’m the one eating them. 😬

Does the sound not affect your misophonia?

Rowntrees I think? They're not very exciting from an adult perspective but I liked the chunky shape as a child. Plus, tell a stubborn little girl that something isn't for her and watch what happens.

Soggys! That does sound awful.

It's the sound of the disappointment you get when it's break time at school and you discover your bag of crisps was not properly sealed. You have no way of getting any other crisps. You feed your soggys to the seagulls that descend on the playground when break is over.

I have undiagnosed misophonia but according to my family I am the noisiest crisp eater i might treat their ears to some lady crisps

Ereshkigal No, it’s really weird. I can actually feel myself tense up, getting really stressed, heart beats faster, nausea, anger and a tightness around my head when I hear other people eating, coughing, slapping their lips, etc. But I can quite happily eat crisps. Maybe it’s something to do with having control over the sound, iykwim. So you can all have the soggys and I’ll have the crisps. 😬

How bizarre and what a misfire! I get the attraction of a smaller bag - but really ?

Surely ladies can cope with a regular size bag of dorritos?

A smaller bag than what?

A normal multipack bag is 25g and, what, 120 calories at most?

Why would you want a smaller bag than that?

So i should eat the ladies crisps whilst on my "ladies" pink Mac Pro and play with my pink Lego friends? The world has gone mad.

Thank you for the signpost to the Bic Lady Pen Amazon reviews - much needed light relief this morning!

ItWentInMyEye don't worry if you sprout a penis. You won't be a man, just 'a woman with a penis'.

Apparently.

Yes but do they come in pale pastel coloured packets so our delicate lady eyes won’t be traumatised by any bold bright ‘masculine’ colours.

Gosh, I really hope they come with some pink beer soon.

Well I think it's great. Much less likely to get those annoying scratches on your labia and... oh wait a second, we don't eat crisps with our fanjos....

Already exists chardonnay. It's sone kind of cider. Really nice actually.

OP ‘Flumpernickel’ here, figured it was time for a namechange...

I painted myself in the corner now, didn’t?

If they’re designed to be put in handbags:

a) That’s one huge fucking range of packet sizes
b) What size are the man sized packets going to be? Wallet-sized, back-pocket sized?

Inside pocket of jacket sized, so containing maybe 3 doritos.

Are they going to be made in differently coloured packs?

Because my handbag is pretty and pink and want to be able to coordinate with my handbag friendly lady crisps?

—you keep out of thustreeofhearts—

If someone had given me lady crisps when I was pregnant and the only thing that kept the nausea at bay was big bags of cheese and onion (preferably McCoys) I would have ripped their bloody head off in a ladylike manner of course Will nobody think of the 'morning' sickness?!?

I just checked the calendar to make sure it wasn't April 1st.
Nope. It's not.

OMFG

b) What size are the man sized packets going to be? Wallet-sized, back-pocket sized?

It is a good job men like all those little bits, isn't it
