Renton 17817 Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 You shouldn't talk about kids to singles or couples without them, for various reasons. With other people who have kids, it's like talking about the weather, it's polite but honestly nobody gives a shit about other people's kids.Same with pets, spare me your dog stories please. And careers. And hobbies. House prices. Et fucking cetera. Only acceptable small chat is football for lads and shopping for lasses. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my mate's cunt wives got sat with a mate from work and his wife st my wedding. She asked them if they had kids and when they said no, she asked why. I don't know the full details of their story but I know he was always desperate for kids. I don't have kids cos I don't want them and I get bored as fuck when you're on a work call and people are giving it the "you know how kids be!" patter for the first ten minutes of the call. Then things get even worse when they all want to talk about work. Edited July 2, 2023 by Gemmill 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The former is incredibly hurtful for them, the latter is THEY AREN'T INTERESTED. Either way, it's just not a topic to bring up. People, mainly lasses, who say things like "better get a move on", can just get to fuck. Absolute morons. Edited July 2, 2023 by Renton 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 14616 Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Neither me nor the current Mrs PL have children. I’ve seen on numerous occasions “mumzillas” ask her how old her kids are and when they get the answer in some cases I’ve seen them almost physically recoil from her. It upsets her a great deal for a variety of reasons. It’s just so horrendously fuckin rude to make someone talk of these things 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 16718 Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Been to see my nephew's this afternoon. My wifes Aunty and Uncle were up who are both 80, They don't have kids and see my wife and her brother as their own. One of my nephews is 9 months old and he was laughing today as I was being daft with him. Her aunty 'Isn't he smart, 9 months old and laughing' What? He's 9 months old FFS. Then my eldest nephew who's 8 next month told me he had sports day coming up. I asked him if parents were having a race. Her Aunty 'No, it's not allowed as they start fighting' Oh and how many children's sports days have you been to? Oh, FUCKING NONE. Anyway, there is a parents race. She was very shocked. Stop reading the Daily Mail you fucking Tory bell. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strawb 3660 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Well that was 4 days of my life I won’t get back, topped off today by a 7.5 hour drive from Wales to boro (taking my mam for her op in the morning) due to the M62. Which is in my opinion the worst road in the world, and I’ve driven in North Africa. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fucking hate it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 14616 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 I mean look at this, they had to build the motorway at virtually its highest point around this farm because the pig ignorant awkward Yorkshire bastard of a farmer wouldn’t accept the compulsory purchase order for all the money on the fuckin planet 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree; my assistant told me about all her dog's allergies the other day, I think to try to evoke some sort of emotional side to me as it's no secret I like dogs. Instantly bored and increasingly irritated, I offered to hoy it in the Tyne to put them both out of their misery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, the farm sits directly above Yorkshire’s only super volcano Eebagum. It erupts every few minutes,as it’s utter radge like it’s compatriots, but because it’s in the middle of the M62 it’s too fucking Baltic and windy to actually produce lava or ash.
