It would be used on awkward or angry threads in an attempt to diffuse the situation.

Flyingzebra: don't waste anymore of your time on it...

scottishmummy · 13/11/2010 19:37

aye all the oh im wetting myself/defacating with mirth

interesting group dynamic.competing to see who is most amused

flyingzebra · 13/11/2010 19:31

I'm with you daftpunk - I kept scrolling back through the thread to find the funny bits that I apppeared to have missed.

daftpunk · 13/11/2010 19:28

SM - tbh, I gave up about half way through. Couldn't handle all the " I'm crying with laughter "...
Laughing at what? .... all these people are on drugs...that's what I thought.

It wasn't funny - at all.

Is your husband called Chopsy?

flyingzebra · 13/11/2010 18:53

I thought the thread was pretty nasty actually.

scottishmummy · 13/11/2010 18:52

its the herd oh how we laughed mentality.oh wasnt that funny lets have a wee badge.an approved funny list

any stampede toward collective mirth and i think..nah lets not follow the sheep

daftpunk · 13/11/2010 18:16

What has my life become...? I'm discussing my dislike of biscuit smileys with a stranger...

StealthPomBear · 13/11/2010 18:04

Shock how can you be anti-biscuit??

daftpunk · 13/11/2010 17:50

SM - I was joking with you...

Yes, I am also anti - biscuit. Have never used it and never will.

I don't want to pour cold water over the frivolities - it's just the bonkers couple thread sounded like a bad episode of my family.

StealthPomBear · 13/11/2010 17:40

so I assume all you anti pom-bearers were also anti-biscuit?

Brasso4 · 13/11/2010 17:38

Oh yes, we must have one!

scottishmummy · 13/11/2010 17:28

do you consider yourself daft bat?how illuminating?i mean that handpuppet thingy the ole gimmers link for a wag

daftpunk · 13/11/2010 17:24

You saying I'm cliquey SM ?

daftpunk · 13/11/2010 17:11

Plus I didn't think the thread was particularly funny - ( must be me????... I dunno)

scottishmummy · 13/11/2010 17:02

no its cliquey.like the daft bat

daftpunk · 13/11/2010 17:00

Sorry - I vote against it.

The only people who will know what it means will be the people who were on that particular thread ( tiny % of m'netters )

Threads come and go - in a few weeks the bonkers couple thread will be a distant memory...to be replaced by another 'classic'.

mypombearisveryold · 13/11/2010 16:40

Another vote here. I was laughing at my desk all morning yesterday. [pombear]

LynetteScavo · 13/11/2010 16:21

Obviously we need a pom bear smiley - but surely MN Towers are going to have to do a deal with Intersnack Limited? And these things don't just happen over night you know!

PennyPomBear · 13/11/2010 16:08

Another vote here, yes please!!Grin

monkeysmama · 13/11/2010 15:44
