Koko, what are you on about? Anyone can tell you are not a habitual wearer of ladies (well, you understand I use the word ladies loosely coz I'm talking about WG) knickers on your bonce!! Call yourself a northern man, pah You are talking about the leg oles, I am talking about ornamental cut outs, the ones strategically placed to attract the eye of you weak and targeted male types. They are usually placed closer to the centre and make good eye oles (I think I saw WG shopping for her knickers in an 'adult' store the other day, I nipped behind a shelf of latex and rubber thigh contraptions and then did a sneaky army roll under the chocolate, honey and strawberry body mousses and out quick before she could see me. I cleverly managed to grab a can and hide it in the extra large pantaloons I had worn for the visit and I used it to squirt on the kids doughnuts later that day coz what they don't know won't hurt em. Good thinking eh? Anyway, getting back to the point, this is why her knickers have strategically placed cut outs, my knickers don't of course coz hi ham a laaaaadyyyy and cover my modesty modestly. Besides which WG is a shexy lil hobbit who oozes comegetme appeal even in her boiler suit and wellies (which is another strange dress combination she is fond of - don't ask me why ) and if you ask me Taffys eyes are just a lil too spaced out (I mean spaced out as in distance apart not as in 'hey man i just got chased by a giant fluffy pink rabbit from Azerbijhan)for a normal DemiGod and this may be why the cut outs fit him well. I feel he may have been turfed out of the DemiGod Society for this very slight but unsightly deformity (you know what Gods are like - always comparing themselves to 'summers days' and stuff - bloody full of themselves that lot) and that is why he has a mortal, ordinary life like the insignificant rest of us. His manner does exude somewhat something of deification, although had I mispelt that, it may have said defecation and that wouldn't be the same thing at all. It certainly wouldn't have been accurate )

Anyway. that's what I mean by cut outs Go to the 'adult' shop and look on the sale rail for 'items for the nether regions that also fit a man's bonce and make him look somewhat like a super-hero or a 1970's World of Sport Saturday afternoon wrestler', you should find something there and then I want you to post a picture of you wearing them. One piece of advice, do make sure they have not been worn and returned. WG did this once, although you should be safe from getting that pair, you being in Christchurch and all.

Ahhhh, thanks Dawn. That explains a lot. Those thick flannel big pants Mrs K has for the cold weather don't have holes except where her legs and body poke out!

[Dawn]

No problem at all. You only had to ask for a simple explanation

[selchie]

All this undies talk brought to mind a wee peevy pet of mine. Jeans cut so low that one's butt crack can't help but show. People actually seeking to have plumber's butt??? It's rather like a car wreck - awful to look at, but one's eyes keep straying over. *white light, make it go away*

...Methinks Dawn has a pet peeve against pet peeves. C'mon, fess up!

[MotherBear]

Oh you mean 'brickies' bum'. We had a prime example of this on the plane to Kuala Lumpur where a guy was squeezing past a couple of Muslim girls to get to his window seat. How his jeans didn't drop to the floor I don't know because they were hanging so low on his hips there can't have been anything holding them up other than willpower. He wasn't even bending down to cause the situation and must walk around like that all the time. Perhaps it's his idea of ventilation. Those girls will have had an extremely close up lesson of male anatomy from which they may never recover.

MB, you are such a fuddy duddy! It's fashionable to wear your jeans in such a way, with your Calvin Kleins showing, do you not know this? I have a feeling Selch is talking more about the girls? The ones that have the big fat wobble-belly hanging over their too tight jeans and the little t-shirt that doesn't meet the jeans. These jeans are usually vair vair hipster jeans i.e. the zip is only about 2 inches long. They are meant for vair vair tiny thin people not the bloaters who for some reason seem to favour them - maybe they are delusionary, I see a lot of people like that

I agree with Selch, it is excrutiatingly painful to see blubbery, deep arse clefts wobbling around in front of you or wherever they're wobbling and unfortunately they're so in your face that you can't help but look. Slimmer peoples arse cracks don't show so much because they have a proper shape with a back arch and hip bones so that the jeans sit where they are supposed to (although they still come below the line of decency when you sit down unless you hold on to them or adjust them once sat) but for some reason I can't fathom so maybe you can help me with this, I don't find a slim arse anywhere near as offensive as a porky, lardy one.

Now, I bet I've been and gone and done it again. A whole new wave of people will be upset with me and my big mouth so I might as well just go ahead and add insult to injury by saying that I don't know why big bloaters wear trackies. That's one of lifes conundrums, well one of my lifes anyway. If I were a massive, worldwide company like Nike or Adidas promoting excellence in sportswear and healthy lifestyle I wouldn't make my clothes in sizes to be worn by huge people similar in size to a small car.

So, there you are you see Selch, I'm not against pet peeves coz there's mine Oh and I may have forgotten to mention that I'm 138 kgs on one leg in the buff holding one Reebok sports sock ( I ate the other one when I couldn't wait for elevensies)

Of course I'm joking. Please send all letter bombs to Taffy and Welshgirls address.

I get enough of those from you Dawn, you don't need to encourage more! Just cos I've been so tremendously busy I havent been able to attend your fab power thingy class for people who enjoy a whole week of painful motion after, doesn't mean you can get people to blow us up!

Anyway, to remain on topic, my pet peeve has to be people who drive at 70km/h on a 100km/h limit single carriageway, then the minute they hit the expressway/passing lane they speed up to over 100 so you can't get past them, and then slow right back down again when the expressway/passing lane ends. You can send those people explosive letters should you so wish!

Am loving all these pet peeves and thought it was high time I added mine

1) Procrastinators and excuse makers.
These are people of go on about how they'd love to do this, that and the other, but can't because x,y,z. Usually the excuses are really lame, and actually if they really WANTED to do something, they'd just do it. So stop talking the talk, and get on with it!!

2) On a similar vein, negative people. I'll give you an example, tis a bright sunny day ... but they'll say "it's a cold wind". No matter what the situation is, they will always and only comment on any negative aspects. Argghhhh

3) Half-a-job. I know I can be guilty of this myself, but starting stuff and only getting about half way through before giving up - be it the cleaning, the ironing or a DIY project.

That's me done for a while ... no doubt I'll think of some more later ...

My main two pet peeves are :

1. OH always wraps his dirty socks inside his shirt and puts them in the wash basket no matter how many times i ask him not to...

2. OH spreads out his paperwork, stamps, magazines all over the dining table and leaves it there for days untouched when i come to move it he moans and says he will do it. When we eat it all has to be shoved to one side and i feel as if i havent left work.........

I will say that i am the one that doesnt replace the loo roll and i also push the toothpaste from the top of the tube never the bottom and i leave the cap off......... .......revenge is sweet!!!!
