People waving their irons about and pointing with them whilst at the table.

Couldn’t find an iron emoji so did a laundry basket instead.

Hi nina!

My phone adds apostrophes to all sorts of random words if they happen to end in S.

The word 'gotten'

It’s an old English word, first used in the 4th century. Much nicer than some of the words in common use today I think.

Innit.

jealousy

Lillie repetition!
Newatthis has already said it!

So we have to choose a word that hasn’t been mentioned before rather than say what actually annoys us?

Juliet27 Wed 09-Jun-21 17:03:10

Ah yes...I see ‘no repitions’. In that case...

Some rules

Chewbacca Wed 09-Jun-21 17:05:09
