Hmm Tricky One - Would You Tell Or Not?

[bednobs]

My lovely friend is forever wanging on about her little boy on facebook. My friend is quite straight laced. When she talks about her son on FB, she refers to him by his initials. The initials spell out a reference to a sexual act. Clearly she has no idea. Would you tell her?

[grasscarp]

Yes I would tell her.

[ummmm]

Yes, I think I would.

I want to know what it is now :-)

[TWR]

Nosey sod Ummmm.lol

Ohhh, that is difficult!

One on hand, you should tell her to save her blushes in the long term, but those are the initials that she gave him so she would have to live with the knowledge for the rest of her days!

If you don't tell her, she may never know. Unless someone else tells her.

So I'm of no use at all!

I'd have already laughed/commented publically at it by now and probably still be removing my foot from my mouth :c)

[pizza]

MMMM guess it's bj

[jackthehat]

I very nearly called my boy Benjamin John.........until I noticed! :o)

[Sqad]

Is his surname King?

His christian names William Anthony Nathan?

Don't tell her......

[bednobs]

yes, the childs name is Benjamin James
unfortunately, her BJ keeps her up all night

[grasscarp]

There are so many dodgy initials. You know Ummm - the thing men would apparently walk over hot coals for......

[pizza]

glad he wasn't born in 69 as well lol x

How old is the boy in question?

I'm sure that at some point in his life he'll figure it out for himself.

[EcclesCake]

She must know what Ben James (or whatever) is shortened to and what else is abbreviated to these initials????

I'm assuming I've got the right abbreviation.....?

Tell her, maybe over a coffee, light hearted styleee.

Don't tell her because it's only us with dirty minds that can't stop sniggering when we see the abbreviation and know we should be more grown up???

[pizza]

lol at Squad

[EcclesCake]

Well flip me!!!! I spent so long typing I didn't know I'd guessed his name right!!!

[bednobs]

i truly think she doesn't know

My old boss was called DJ by all and sundry. When talking to my MIL about him she would miss-call him BJ. She never really understood why I sniggered.

I'm such a child.

[andy-hughes]

I wouldn't worry about it.

Some people will have a snigger, some people will ignore it - and by the time BJ is old enough to know what else his initials mean, he probably will be past caring.

[albaqwerty]

Tell her to call her son Ben, not BJ.

Bigjack had his leg pulled on here when referring to his wife as Mrs BJ, I was also asked, in the nicest Mrs Overkill way, to stop calling Beejay, BJ.

[Octavius]

I'm with Andy, she's probably past the point of caring.

I would find the constant "wanging" more worthy of comment.
