AIBU to ask about this?

I see this comment on here all the time! Someone will post on an (often bizarre) thread and say "hello Paul, is that you?" Ok maybe it's not Paul but you get the gist!

What is this about?

Sorry if it's really obvious!

I'm on MN all the time and I haven't seen this once. Am I missing something?

If someone posts something that sounds like it might be said by Jeremy Corbyn for example, some clever dick person pipes up with "is that you Jeremy?"

No, it's me, Maureen. Is Trev around?

JonahAndTheSale · 26/08/2016 22:48

Yes I think it's Brian.

Have you cancelled the cheque yet Brian?

What has the Union of Catholic Mothers got to do with all this? Confused

RedOnHerHedd · 26/08/2016 23:01

Is it me you're looking for???

WannaBeDifferent · 26/08/2016 23:02

Op I think the Brian thing is from an old thread about a bloke called Brian offering a Yoni massage , so any new thread that mentions anything along those lines gets the response 'Is that you Brian?'

Or something along those lines anyway .

WannaBeDifferent · 26/08/2016 23:04

Usual I thought you'd outed me then !

nancy75 · 26/08/2016 23:05

UCM had an epic name change fail on a thread about something embarrassing ( maybe thrush can't remember) it's in classics

MissMellowMellons · 26/08/2016 23:06

I really don't have a clue what this thread is about. Confused

DramaInPyjamas · 26/08/2016 23:06

Brian was a yoni massager
Sharon's husband danced like a t-rex
Jeff was the mumsnet hacker


(I think)

You are Sheila from down t'road and I claim my £5.

nancy75 · 26/08/2016 23:07

Sharon's husband shopped like a T. rex in Asda I believe

Yes, the spray-painted pigeon thread. His mates would be all, "Paul? Is that you?"

WannaBeDifferent · 26/08/2016 23:13

MisMellow these are all references to old threads - many are in classics

Hateloggingin · 26/08/2016 23:19

Sharon was the wasp one too
