What was the last childish thing you did?

? ace!

Me and H spent a few hours in the British Museum playing hide and seek. Then we found the Easter Island Statue and stood in front of it talking in really low voices saying 'Dum Dum, you got gum gum?' until we started getting funny looks off some Japanese tourists ?

I forwarded an email from a friend to JK, purely because she said she was going to spend the afternoon teasing herself with a film festival programme.

(I suspect she meant "tantalise", but she's foreign, poor love)

And I labelled it 'Fnarr'.

Ran my hands under cold water then stuck them behind the shower curtain and grabbed H's bits while he was in the shower.

Pulled H's trousers and pants down while he was washing up.

In fact, most of my childish acts are to do with grabbing H's bits in some way. Poor Mr K.

I wasn't adding i was clarifying. You were being rude.

So surely under the same rule badger monkey should not have answered your question, because she was adding to her story.

Hardly rude, it was tongue in cheek. So, high maintenance and a tad precious - what a winning combination.

Your example is not a comparison ?

If you couldn't undress yourself through injury then surely asking your H for help isn't being childish?

I think we have todays example of your something childish don't we ?

no but the tantrum was, which i freely admit.

Tick tedious and predictable too.

A dictionary may would be of use to you.

Wow you really have an attitude problem today don't you. Perhaps you should just keep your opinions to yourself now because you're making yourself sound ridiculous calling other people things. This thread was intended as light hearted i believe.

Luthien was being lighthearted with her original comments, which is clear for anyone else reading this to see. You took offence unnecessarily and are now surprised that she is sticking up for herself.

I think it is you who is rude.

? ?? Oh good grief. Read your post again and follow your own 'advice'.

I've taught my 3 yr old to spell "snot" and then emphasised the "it's not...." so now we're in that "snot funny" humour ?

then i apologise for being unneccessarily offended at being called high maintenance. I was clearly wrong and will step away from this thread.

Grrr. Know your limits.

Jords, I remember singing 'polish it with rain' as 'polly shit with rain' (is that even a song?) and thinking my parents didn't know what I was doing.

i think it's really romantic and sweet if a guy undresses then dresses you in your pjs. my OH loves doing it as he had to do it when i was in full leg cast for 5 weeks and couldnt do it myself. it reminds him of a time when he had to look after me and i really depended on him. there is no hitched rule saying you cant explain further if some1 calls you high maintenance when in reality this is far from the truth and there is a story behind it. it's not like they do it all the time, jeesh.

and there was no need to take something that is meant to be fun and turn it a bit mean. although it does fit in with the childish title of this quite well

There's only two people who look ridiculous on this thread and I'll give you a hint, one is not Luthien ?

Edited after reading Jackson's reply ?

Oh for goodness sake. Luthien. Was. Being. Tongue. In. Cheek.

I do hope that's clear now.

? I've genuinely never heard of that before ? I remember being quite shocked when I was in my late teens and this really sweet 8 yr old girl I was talking to (well brownie as I was helping out as a young leader) said to me, "if you've got 1 cough, 2 cough, 3 cough, what comes next?" Totally shocked ?

Omg i cant believe a brownie said that!! i've heard the polish it one before, my mum taught me when i was like 10 and i cant say it without thinking of her. she also taught me the ones where you stretch your mouth and say banker

I recently taught some of my godchildren to roll down a hill because I wanted to, so I used them as an excuse. Forgot how much fun it was. ? did it in a national trust gardens and received many looks

??

We used to say " Polish it behind the door" and giggle like loons, admittedly we were about 7 at the time.

I'm quite childish all the time and will laugh at things noone else finds remotely funny, most of this thread has had me giggling, especially the tangent that DWC/Luthien/t'other person took us down ?

i love doing that! i got a load of brownies doing that down a really steep hill because i was bored after lunch.

lol i agree

Deliciouswitchchild, you really are being rude and rather tedious now.

Still, if you want to make yourself look foolish. Crack on.

lol thats the version i was taught!

Oh for goodness sake. shall we just carry on with the thread now as it was meant to be?

Mine's along the same lines as MrJK's.

Our receptionist sent an email to everybody in the building entitled 'fire alarm testes' . ? I wondered if it was some sort of super-hero power.

I was sniggering for about 20 minutes, and had to forward it to MrQ and a few friends. Was a little put out that one friend replied saying they didn't se what was so funny [:'(]

In a very similar vein to Quincy, H worked with this complete and utter nobber. Who sent H a really ranty e-mail about doing some tests. Except he wrote testes - which took the sting out!

When we were little we used to say "cat shit" instead of "catch it" when playing ball

Bought a pack of these because of the name. I was actually giggling to myself as I took them to the checkout.
