I did it today. Twice. Made me feel like a boring old fart!

Heh heh, One of the other ones I thought had died have come back to life. I don't mind if I kill this one as you've all been so lovely.

Marthasmama · 13/01/2009 22:05

I think I've just killed another one.... Yay!

noonki · 13/01/2009 21:49

Marthasmama · 13/01/2009 21:40

Thanks noonki and girlandboy, I feel rude if I don't reply....oh no!

girlandboy · 13/01/2009 21:37

Actually, I think I've just killed two more!

I'm always killing threads
I try to remind myself there are millions of threads and if I kill a few its only a small percentage

noonki · 13/01/2009 21:32

I had six dead threads in a row once, that surely is a record!

hello marthasmama, Don't worry about ignored just be chuffed if someone notices you! (unless they are all shouting at you- unless that floats your boat!)

girlandboy · 13/01/2009 21:32

Marthasmama - no, don't do it. Don't get the last word in! Let me do it for you!

Lionstar · 13/01/2009 21:32

Got you covered buddy!

Marthasmama · 13/01/2009 21:21

Phew!

Lionstar · 13/01/2009 21:20

Here - I'll be your wingmanperson

girlandboy · 13/01/2009 21:19

No, not quite! We're still here.

Marthasmama · 13/01/2009 21:18

Oh dear. I must be a real loser! I killed the thread about killing threads.

Marthasmama · 13/01/2009 20:55

Yes and it's all so cliquey! I will stick around, it's hard work though. Feel like you have to 'make your bones' as it were!

GrimmaTheNome · 13/01/2009 20:53

Maybe you'd uttered the mot juste which no-one could follow?

I feel boring! It amazes me that the MNers recognise so many other people.
Don't go away - maybe its always like this at the start!

I have the same problem. I tend to kill threads or get ignored . I'm new so feel like I should maybe just go away & bore my poor DH instead! I'm sure you're not boring.
