I wonder if you could please tell me something that is rather puzzling me at the moment. It is only a small thing and I really don't want to take up a lot of your time. I think Strictly May be on tv soon, if not now, and I expect you want to settle down in front of it. smile

The thing is, norty words in thread titles are allowed on MN. But not on here. Is that because we are the big girls and, therefore, expected to behave in a well brought up, ladylike manner.

If this is the reason, I quite understand smile and I will in future, if I have a future on GN, try to avoid the very worst of them. Like tits, bum, and bollocks.

Thank you for your very kind attention. smile

Juggernauts and Jock straps that your poor old grandad had to sweat to buy you. grin

Jock straps and Juggernauts- there's a title for a musical!

Amagran Tue 10-Sep-19 10:52:16

Knob! (Not on a door!)

merlotgran Tue 10-Sep-19 10:47:22

Jock straps! Always sounds like a worthy expletive to me.

trisher Tue 10-Sep-19 10:43:39

I always think juggernauts sounds rude. So can I ask for advice about the size of my juggernauts?

While everyone pauses to try to find words beginning with J, could I please take MawB to task for reminding me about the scrotum waxing thread? How could you, MawB?It made me laugh so much that my sides really, really hurt and I had to keep pausing while reading it. My sides are aching now just thinking about it!

For anyone who missed it, the article is a review for Veet hair-removing gel posted on Amazon:

I had a Gol****g" as a child and carried it everywhere!

Gaunt47 Tue 10-Sep-19 08:45:10

Where have all the Golliwogs gone? (The G word is offensive apparently)

Only just seen your post Elegran! grin

Elegran Mon 09-Sep-19 21:55:42

That'll get withdrawn, for sure.

Elegran Mon 09-Sep-19 21:54:25

I for Interruptus (as in coitus)

Bathsheba Mon 09-Sep-19 21:39:41

Oh no, that won't work, will it? Not for a title. Back to the drawing board...

Bathsheba Mon 09-Sep-19 21:38:17

I??? Hmm, let's think....

What about "I don't give a fuck"? Will that do?

Chewbacca Mon 09-Sep-19 21:37:47

grin that made me laugh out loud Merlot!

Bathsheba Mon 09-Sep-19 21:31:47

It's not very sweary is it merlot? And anyway it begins with R and we're only up to H grin

merlotgran Mon 09-Sep-19 21:31:11

As Eliza Doolittle might have said, ' In Hertford, Hereford and Hampshire, Harseholes hardly happen!'

merlotgran Mon 09-Sep-19 21:25:49

Is that your contribution, jura?

Not sure I get it. grin

gmarie Mon 09-Sep-19 21:17:37

Thanks for the grins!!! Was feeling down after reading headlines in my Google News feed and you ladies are just the anecdote for that slump!

Chewbacca Mon 09-Sep-19 21:16:30
