Welcome!

This is the 14th incarnation of the Pub and is meant as a place to drop by with random thoughts and meandering chats, on feminist or other related themes. Anything you want to mull over but not necessarily start a thread about. Alternatively, flop onto the chaise lounges with some Wine

We have a pub goat, a feminist cannon for firing at crazy sexists and a variety of drinks and snacks. And stools/bar counters at female friendly heights. And a crèche in the back somewhere

Will link the last pub in the next post!

Actually, the gloating post appears to have been deleted now. I went over to read all of your responses because, although I am not articulate enough to take on the GFs, I really love reading what you all have to say. Sterling work on all threats.

Small rant now. DD1 wants a nightgown with spaceships on it and I can't find one, pyjamas yes, a nightie no.

The next time there's a MNHQ thread/webchat I'm going to ask why they tolerate this.

That arse's posts still stand (although I think he's been banned now). Gloating about how women are paid less. And why are new joiners allowed to come on and call women "jealous mingers' if they remotely object to things like Hooters. MN shouldn't stand for this crap.

I bet R*eddit's quiet tonight - or at least one sub forum.

Night all. Flowers

Sabrinnnnnnnna · 29/11/2014 23:55

Yup - fairly normal saturday night on MN...

Zazzles007 · 29/11/2014 23:54

Aahhh, I see, invaded by A Couple of Twats who were being, what else, Twats Grin. All in a Saturday night on MN.

Sabrinnnnnnnna · 29/11/2014 23:42

That thread started off so well too

Sabrinnnnnnnna · 29/11/2014 23:30

Zazzles - it's the MN campaign one on BPAS - if you can stand it. Although I think they've been hit with the big banhammer now.

Zazzles007 · 29/11/2014 23:27

Am I missing out on anything? Do I really want to know? Grin

Grin that thread is now absolute comedy gold.

Best laugh I've had in ages.

People who do that need to be punished. Severely. There's nothing worse in a chocolatey sense than After Eight deficiency.

Bastards.

Go tell the Anonymous geezer, bet he'd be able to do precisely nothing find out who did this to you!

YonicScrewdriver · 29/11/2014 21:12

I had two big squares of Lindt lemon. I have wrapped up the last two for another day.

'We are legion' made me LOL. It's like when my 12 year old tries to be clever

Gutted about the after eights, Frau!

FrauHelgaMissMarpleandaChuckle · 29/11/2014 21:09

Seriously here. I thought I had almost a full box.

Disappointed doesn't come close.

PuffinsAreFictitious · 29/11/2014 21:08

I have ginger biccies from Ikea. DH keeps trying to take one and I am forced to bite him Grin

YonicScrewdriver · 29/11/2014 21:08

Frau. You must kill that person at once. Stake them with one of Buffy's matchmakers.

Oh dear.... does he think he's part of anonymous? Bless him, do give him a biscuit from me. I've no intention of going back to the thread found out I can't hide the blasted thing because it's pinned so, I shall leave him to you lot. A tag team of Frau 'takes no shit' Helga and Buffy being reasonable should see them off in no time.

FrauHelgaMissMarpleandaChuckle · 29/11/2014 21:06

I have after eights. But some fucking cunting bastard has put the empty wrappers back in the fucking box.

I am not happy.

I'm in danger of losing my patience on a thread. I suspect you may know of which thread I refer.
