Hunker

It's not a talent, it's not something to be ashamed of or upset about.

It's not done on purpose.

People often don't even look at chatnames, let alone follow others round the board going "ooh, I won't post after HER, I would FAR prefer her to have killed this thread, that'd serve her right"

OK?

Hunker

In fact, I might make a list of people who bang on about it and specifically post after them with:

"No, you fucking haven't killed the thread, stop being so dull"

I don't think that's what the posters meant. Maybe I'm reading it wrong but I took it to mean that because they were not known as a regular, folk didn't respond to their message,

lol, oh leave them alone, if the only way they can relate to each other is identifying with each other as losers what harm

Frascati, we are ignoring each other, remember?

I read it as - fuck, have just wedged bit of dime bar into my gum. Am now really fucked off and will be even less civil to anybody who questions me on this subject. OK.

I keep wanting to post rude things and end my posts



hunker


I keep thinking it'd be funny.

But then it is half eleven and I've been on the WD40......

But I'm tempted.

How come you're VVVQV again? I thought you were NotHereetc

VeniVidiVickiQV · 27/07/2007 23:30

Nope. Hunker is logged in under my username.

We can both post at the same time it seems

When I post, I dont have to put my name at the bottom of the post though

Hence some posts say hunker, and some dont.

So hunker could lock you out of your own username by changing the password on you?

That would be funny.

She could, but it would only be temporary because MNHQ know my IP address and email. They would therefore email me the password, and the I could change it, and ban hunker again

Oh fuck.

Er.

Of course I wouldn't do that.

I might change her to VickiSmellsOfCheeseYesKnobCheese though.

I don't think they are attention seeking, I think they are seeking reassurance and may be mildly insecure. Outrageous really

Yup. Getting the last word is always satisfactory. Especially when you don't even have to finish the post with "Neeer, twatface" or equivalent.

They've never been seen at the same time, y'know....

No....Er...? I'm maybe thinking of two of The Jacksons?
