Why does she do this???

[DVCLiz]

LOL Yes, Jenz...you must. I don't want to run into her somewhere.

There was a REALLY obnoxious woman on Dr Phil one time who talked like that to her husband. Exactly WHAT did that guy (seemingly normal) see in her??? Yes...she needs to go too.

OMG, I remember her!!!! Pwease...pwease...I was ready to throw up!!!!! Or, I guess I should say, frow up!!!!

Several years ago I worked in an office with a group (4) of ladies, ages 40-65 who ALL talked baby talk most of the day, it was nauseating! The oldest lady even called herself "Joycie-poo" and called her 30 something daughter "wittle Kimmie" (which was funny in itself as "wittle Kimmie" is over 6 ft tall and about 400lbs and very mannish, so the name just didn't go with the person) (NOT a jab at her size, just saying the name didn't suite her!)

I have a client who does this. She is probably 55 years old. And her daughter does it too. I try to ignore it but it is rather annoying. "Just a wittle twim." Ack!

Next time she talks that way, tell her that if she does it again you're going to shove a real Kit Katt down her widdle bitty throat.

Projectile vomiting might work also.

Does she ask for a dibby-dab of salad?

We're all on the same wave length!

ROFL!

I agree - you cannot pick your own nicknames NOR can you refer to yourself in the 3rd person...

Cathryn is done commenting on this....

That's right, Cathryn Wathryn...

she is 36 years old - I know, I know .... as much as it drives me crazy - it is sad

My mother is near 50. It NEVER stops.

However--luckily she is bilingual. She can speak grown-up when it is necessary. But sometimes it comes out as baby-up...when few ooga buggy boo's sneak in there.

ETA: Luckily she doesn't do this professionally--the only wonderful benefactors of her bilingual baby talk abilities is family. Lucky us.

OMG I did not realize that anybody else did that! My SIL talks baby talk all the time, to her mom, her friends, the dog, her husband(at least #2 & #3, so far ) It makes me want to barf! I simply refuse to converse with a 50yo woman(or her 84yo mother!) who won't speak like an adult. I never even talked to my kids like that!

All of these people must be rounded up and destroyed....

MY GOD PEOPLE - they could be breeding right now!!!
