Time for a Monday morning rant!

There's this ***** at work who thinks she's gods gift/knows everything/opinion on everything/ugly/man in drag etc who has the most annoying voice in the world. Basically she mainly sounds like a man until she wants something they this pathetic 'girlie' voice comes out!

Anyway, onto the reason for this post.

Picture this. I'm standing at the Snack Van thinking about what to have. ***** face come along and says have you got something in mind (to eat) so I go '"mmmmmm' I'm not sure!" to which she blurts out while laughing in a hysterical way "mmmmmmm means yes, so you've just said 'Yes, I'm not sure' which makes no sense" I turned around, made my choice, paid and walked off. I could hear her telling the Snack lady that I was clearly wrong and loling about it!

To me an 'mmmmm' can be used in a number of situations to mean different things. Whats your thinking on this?
 
It completely depends on the intonation and tone used!

And you're right, she sounds like a ****.

If I was 'mmmm'ing to mean yes, I'd probably nod my head at the same time and using falling intonation.

If I was using 'mmm' as though as I was unsure about something, I'd use monotonal intonation. Doing English Language A level has scarred me for life :(
 
mmmm is like I'm not sure.

I would have punched her in the ovaries then mmmm'd about that. :mad: :p
 
mmmm = yes
mmmm = no
mmmm = I like that
mmmm = I don't like that
mmmm = I've just been sick in my mouth
mmmm = this is lovely chocolate
mmmm = please untie me, I think they're coming back
 
Thanks for the quick replies :)

I feel vindicated and happy to be alive lol.

I'm going to randomly 'mmmmm'at her all day. I usually have to speak to her around 3 times so I'm going to get at least one 'mmmm' per convo!!
 
Go into her house at christmass, **** on her children and christmas tree

No swearing

If she had children it would be on the top of my list of things to do. Currently, nuking her from orbit is the top form of action!

mmm means either one of two things for me.

undecided as in i dont know.
or something being tasty.

infact thinking about it now it can mean a lot of things.
 
Depends, if you're obviously choosing something and said "mmmm not sure" it's pretty obvious that you're thinking about it.

you left out "Oh god, don't stop now"
 
I used to work with a woman like this, she used to take the pee because my mate and i used the side shift on our trucks which meant we are both beginners and useless :rolleyes:

We could have done it like her and spent 5 mins getting a pallet out!
 
mmmm for me is either tasty or that I'm unsure.

mmmHmmm is yes
(I'm just sitting here making the sound working out how to type it haha)
