Hello, sorry to be ignorant.....but what does OH mean? I am from the United States......imagine "H" is hubby or husband but "O"? Not "old", I hope!!!! Ha, ha!
OH has crept into my everyday writen and spoken language....can't help it...such a handy term. I dislike the term "partner" but OH covers a multitude of combinations!
I'm with you.... I'm not married to my OH. So how do I refer to him? My "boyfriend"? Nah, we've been together 25 years, "boyfriend" sounds so, well, trivial. My "husband" and don't explain? Then everyone wonders why I have no ring, and it looks like I'm lying about being married, because I really want to be married - everyone woman does, right? My "partner" - I think (unfortunately) people wonder whether I'm trying not to say my partner is a woman. How horrid is that? That people think I might want to hide the fact.
You guys are too funny!! but now at least I know what OH means. Julie, now another silly question from me....where do you get those funny little faces you add to your text. I just love them..... Also, congrats for being together with ANYONE for 25 years!!! Yes, I think people look at you funny if you say "partner" which is very sad in this day and age.....I call Cooper (my pup) my partner!! but everyone knows he is my doggie......
Overly Hen-pecked ... Often Harangued ... The 'funny little faces' are called emoticons and you can access them by pressing the smiley face button (if you hover the mouse pointer over it it will say 'Add smilies'). And if you hover the pointer over each of the smilies it will show you how you can type them directly. Eg you could just type a colon followed by a closing bracket to give ...
When you go to type your reply (in the box at the bottom of the thread)....see at the top of the box you are typing in, on the right hand side, there are three symbols. One is a paperclip - ignore this one. One looks like a big capital, bold, underlined A - if you click this one, a formatting tool bar appears The final one is a smiling face - if you click this one, a smiley tool bar appears, and you click on the smiley to insert the smiles....
Can't seem to find smileys option on iPad, but I was DETERMINED to know how to make this face and found out you can type it out (colon, the word "rolleyes" then another colon) . Now I gotta figure out text for sticking tongue out.
Try a colon and then the letter "p" (You can find the necessary text by hovering the mouse pointer over the desired smiley after choosing the Add Smilies button)
I love him dearly but my OH is Obviously Hopeless when it comes to following my dog training instructions ......mind you he would probably say I am Obviously Hopeless at the the actual dog training!
Forgot to say ...I haven't got the Smiley ( Emoticon) option displayed at the top of my reply box on my iPad. I just go onto the smiley menu which is on the button that looks a like The World x
I tried those but only some of them work. But there's no this smiley which is my favorite Thanks Unclebob !!
...but there is this one which emotes ..... 'Oh God! What has he done now! 'And this which I use a lot,I think I laugh more than I cry...thankfully!
I could never work out how to do these, thanks I can use them now they are my favourite along with and
