Please? I am already utterly sick of hearing about this and have taken to reading the news on spiegel.de just avoid this vomit-inducing love-in.
Thank you.

well we never got a benefits topic

NorbertDentressangle · 17/11/2010 09:11

but with the ability to hide the whole topic not individual threads

(in fact, saying that, can you do that with whole topics already or is it just individual threads?? I've presumed its just threads)

expatinscotland · 17/11/2010 09:08

Please give us a separate topic!

NorbertDentressangle · 17/11/2010 09:02

I agree there should be a separate topic (that can be hidden).

FGS up until yesterday I managed to get by without even knowing what Kate Whatsherface looked like. Now I'm in danger of finding out every dull detail about her and William.

I have no interest in the Royals whatsoever and am a bit pissed off to see so many threads in active convos about them.

Well really. Would anyone care to come and look at my AIBU thread please. I really would appreciate some advice.

NightFury · 16/11/2010 20:26

MissKateMiddleton · 16/11/2010 20:24

I think you are all big meanies

NightFury · 16/11/2010 20:21

It could be called The Tumbrils and could be a subsection of Fun and Games. Or Pets.

piss-take threads make the world go round!

motherinferior · 16/11/2010 19:36

I quite like the piss-take threads Blush.

But I would like to say, with terrific pride, that I boycotted the Chaz'n'Di wedding too.

ASecretLemonadeDrinker · 16/11/2010 19:21

you miserable lot!

unfitmother · 16/11/2010 19:19

Please, please, please, then I can hide it.

Decorhate · 16/11/2010 19:15

The problem is that people are lazy/want lots of replies so tend to post mostly in Chat & AIBU - I seethe inwardly every time I see a wedding thread not in the wedding section for example.

I sort of hanker after the days before AIBU and when there was a button you could press to see active convs without chat... ( I do know you can hide it but this was simpler iyswim)

HecateQueenOfWitches · 16/11/2010 19:07

Oh yes please. please please please.

or chat, other subjects, aibu, relationships even Grin will be taken over. It's easy to hide a section - one click and it's done - it's a pain in the arse to have to individually hide thread after thread after thread. For months and months and months.

I swear to beelzebub if I have to endure royal shit as well as z list sleb shit I'm going to sit in the highest tower of MNHQ looking down on you all with A FUCKING AR-15!!!!!

AMumInScotland · 16/11/2010 19:07

On the plus side - maybe the "weird things your inlaws do" might get a bit surreal...

AMumInScotland · 16/11/2010 18:57

I'm exactly as happy for them as I would be if I heard that any other couple I'd never met was getting married. Happy in a vague "that's nice for them" sort of way. But not hugely interested in the details. And not thinking that 23 threads are necessary to say "these two people have got engaged". One thread would be fine....

nymphadora · 16/11/2010 18:55

SauvignonBlanche · 16/11/2010 18:52

Fuck the lot of them!
You're right expat, the anti-catholic stance is just glossed over.
Everytime I look there's another moronic thread about them. Sad
