Hi all. I hope you lovely people are as well as possible today. Having a little think I decided that "Buttonhater" was just too long-winded and negative so here I am, the all new and improved Gnarli. Hugs

Me too x

So have you come to terms with buttons? I don't believe that's possible! Speaking of which, who the hell had the bright idea of using them on duvet covers? (I might re-name myself 'ButtonFasteningDuvetCoverHater', catchy eh?)

I hate the press studs on duvet covers that I can never get to click together

That's understandable. I used to recruit small grandchildren to do it for me. Like it's not hard enough to change the bed...

No, still hate the pesky, slippery little blighters! Grrr. As to duvet covers,poppers were awful but do-able but the person putting buttons on them should go straight to Hades.

I just hate duvet covers, full stop! It's such a pain trying to get the duvet into the corners before you even get to the buttons/poppers, both of which are a pain, and I don't have issues with my hands/fingers! πŸ˜–πŸ˜–πŸ˜–

It's a standing joke with my in Laws that one of the men in the family found duvet covers and their snappers/buttons such a problem that he ripped a 2nd side open and took to stapling the covers closed - and then ripping them open again...

I loved buttonhater as it made me laugh :) ...and there is nothing that is negative about you!!

"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet" So Gnarli or Buttonhater, you are a wonderful lady :)

Hi billy. If you go onto "search" and put "change name" it will bring up two sets of instructions, one for desktop and one for mobile. Job's a good 'un. Go on, you've got to tell me 'cos I'm a nosey person, what's your new name?

Mmmmm - One of my favorite wines, although that one is spelled Gnarly - ha ha

Oh I love the California wine Gnarly... Yummy

β€’ in reply to

Have you seen the new Gnarly Black? I love the dark ancient vine zins...

β€’ in reply to

I love all wines but anything that is labeled black. Whenever black is added to a wine it's either food colouring or more likely beet juice. Over priced for a blended wine with added color. Gosh I think I miss my old job.....

β€’ in reply to

mmmmmm - They taste good though =)

Yes, they do. I love Zins & cabs & Sauvs & meritages & bordeauxs& lol I could go on and on

Drat! Spelling was never my strong suit!

β€’ in reply toGnarli

Oh Jan, do you know how funny you are? I thought you were trying to be young and hip with you spelling Gnarly as Gnarli. I thought you were trying to be cool....but now I find out that you are just a bad speller :) Just like me!!

Gnarli profile image
Gnarliβ€’ in reply to

I think its a bit late to be young and hip unless I'm starting the second childhood and I deny ever being cool. An ageing hippy with an unhealthy interest in knitting, that's me. But being funny? I do my best

β€’ in reply toGnarli

Oh Gnarli, there you go again making me laugh. "An ageing hippy with an unhealthy interest in knitting".... sounds like a funny British Comedy. lol

Gnarliβ€’ in reply to

I do my best. You've got to get your laughs where you can.

Thanks for letting us know. Although Buttonhater does remind me of one of the children i work with. Why? If I'm wearing certain tops with buttons on & he dosen't like the look of it, he goes ballistic, (special needs child). He starts effing & blinding at me, telling me to take it off, shouting at me to get out of the effing classroom, throwing anything he get his hands on etc etc.

But, I love my job. Just carry on regardless.

Kids, you gotta love them, no matter their needs. πŸ˜‰

Hi,

I loved the name Buttonhater! But Gnarli is grand too. I'm going to change mine to ' knackered but happy' or ' too young to have a hump' :-) Hmm. Maybe needs work...

By the way, does anyone know how to put a pic on name? I couldn't see where to do it. Maybe 'Luddite' or 'techno-phobe' would be better names...

Gnarli profile image
Gnarliβ€’ in reply toLizzieR

Oooh. Luddite has a certain ring to it. Go to your profile and click 'edit profile', the smiley face should then have 'upload' on it. Click this and select an image from your gallery. Save changes. That should do the job

Not what you're looking for?
