Because there are so many. And they are so unpleasant.

Pretty please...

Pagwatch Tue 24-Jan-12 10:59:07

please

Sevenfold Tue 24-Jan-12 10:59:14

I was just going to ask that. it is daft they are all over the place fule of vileness(we need a benefit bashing topic)

Pagwatch Tue 24-Jan-12 11:01:53

There are about six I think

Pagwatch Tue 24-Jan-12 11:08:08

I know I am a lone voice shrieking in the wilderness but I don't care...

Pagwatch Tue 24-Jan-12 11:18:12

Actually I do

<<cries>>

S'ok Pag I agree with you!

KnottyLocks Tue 24-Jan-12 11:21:01

Pag, you are not alone.

KatieMiddleton Tue 24-Jan-12 11:21:24

Yes please put them all together. Or just delete them.

Pagwatch Tue 24-Jan-12 11:21:53

Thanks bossy

<<grateful in a fairly pathetic way>>

Pagwatch Tue 24-Jan-12 11:22:14

Oh hooray!

D0oinMeCleanin Tue 24-Jan-12 11:23:07

I also agree. A temp ban on threads about benefits containing any of the following words: I think, plasma/flat screen, holidays, AIBU, wouldn't go a miss either.

It's getting silly now. And scary. I'd rather not believe there are so many gullible eejits in the world.

Hullygully Tue 24-Jan-12 11:23:24

PLEASE put them all together.

They are all started by work experiencers at Tory HQ anyway.

If you don't, I'll be forced to start more shooting threads and use Bad Language.

KnottyLocks Tue 24-Jan-12 11:26:00

Um, Hully darling, Bad Language? You?

Hullygully Tue 24-Jan-12 11:28:29

Them's the lengths, Knotty, them's the lengths.

sodapops Tue 24-Jan-12 11:30:00

I agree and I have hardly been on here for the last couple of days.

TadlowDogIncident Tue 24-Jan-12 11:30:59

I agree too - can't bear the levels of ignorance and unpleasantness.

Pagwatch Tue 24-Jan-12 11:32:51

So shocked that Hully may start swearing. Yet not surprised at the idea that she may start shooting people.

BelleDameSansMerci Tue 24-Jan-12 11:33:21

Oh yes, please move them somewhere so that I never see another one. They're bloody awful.

Chubfuddler Tue 24-Jan-12 11:33:28

Can you put all these threads in one place though please, including the sf satisfied leftie ones so I can hide them all in one go.

Sevenfold Tue 24-Jan-12 11:34:09

something needs to be done,
they are vile, full of jealous screechy posts(don't get me started on the anti sn brigade)

cityhobgoblin Tue 24-Jan-12 11:34:36

I totally disagree... the financial facts and the misconceptions & vicious attitudes are the reality of everyday life for millions and can't be , dare I say it , ghettoised

Pagwatch Tue 24-Jan-12 11:35:26

Yes yes. Put all the self satisfied lefties in one area too please.

I would love to be in there.

KatieMiddleton Tue 24-Jan-12 11:35:51

I don't know any satisfied lefties. Most are feeling distinctly unsatisfied and worried for society.

But it is polite and tidy to post political threads in "politics". Just as it is polite and tidy to post site stuff in "site stuff" and pregnancy stuff in "pregnancy".

EdithWeston Tue 24-Jan-12 11:36:48

I started a thread asking for something similar earlier this month, when we had an outburst of Bob Holness RIP threads.

If you're interested in a subject, it's far more rewarding to have all in one place (or possibly two, if the self-extinguishing "chat" is left alone).
