Does anyone know anything about the good* doctor’s sly little suggestion about MN and the bodyshop protests...?

littlbrowndog · 23/06/2020 08:23

I dunno sunset.

It’s always good to remind him about posie owning him live on the telly

SunsetBeetch · 23/06/2020 06:44

He's just making a joke, I think. Admittedly not a very funny one. I don't think we should give him the narcissist supply.

NameXForThis · 23/06/2020 05:32

I reckon it’s actually code for some meeting/activity/plan.....

@Datun

He does know that mumsnet is a public platform, doesn't he? That anyone can check it out?

What on earth is the point in referencing mumsnet, a public forum, easily checkable, in your comment, if your comment's not true?

It's 100% going to backfire.

Cokie's Law: It doesn't matter if it is true or not. It's out there.

Cokie Roberts was a journalist and made this modern observation on the mis attributed quote "A lie can go round the world before the truth gets its shoes on."
People do not fact check.

Anyone got s link to the tweet?

Scrolling though his Twitter he has links to groups that aren't the real ones, saying all sorts of shit.

I'd like a link to the original tweet if possSmile

ShinyFootball · 23/06/2020 02:18

Hahahaha

WTF

That's brilliant.
Yes! Body shop is a local shop for local women.
Knicker checks obviously.

If any male makes it past the knicker check and strays from the MACHO SHAVING SECTION they are obviously evil.

No way would a bogstandard cis male hetero GORILLA go into the body shop for coconut whatever for themselves, their mum, sister, children, aunt etc.

The body shop doors are an INVISIBLE FORCE FIELD against men even though they sell products for men and lots of men know women that they buy gifts or necessities for up to and including SANITARY TOWELS FOR THEIR FEMALE FAMILY MEMBERS.

Shocking.

I stand with Adrian.

(Mole???)

@Ereshkigalangcleg

are you excluding other forms of scrub??

ShockSad sorry, I will do better and learn from this.

Not good enough. Please go get Daniel Radcliffe to apologize for you.

The choice of Stevenage wasn’t accidental

Enough4me · 23/06/2020 00:16

I would like to exclude coconut scrubs from everywhere as they are too similar to disgusting solid yuk and gritty coconuts. Coconut creams are fine, except if they're supplied by bullies body shop.

@Enderthedragon

Has he just made this up then? What a wally!

Stevenage doesn't have a Body Shop anyway Grin

If the Body Shop keep this up, it won’t be the only town without one. Are they working towards the WH Smiths model, where their airport concessions keep the rest of the company in the black? Oh.... Not exactly a winning strategy just now.

I've just used their store locator and it looks like you're right

Yep, the Stevenage branch closed down a few years ago! An odd choice of place to make up really.... Grin

Xanthangum · 22/06/2020 19:51

How old is he? Does anyone know?

I'd guess early thirties, based on starting his first degree in 2006?

PastMyBestBeforeDate · 22/06/2020 19:42

Poor left out Stevenage.

Apricot kernal based scrubs are scrubs too!

Hi Adrian, I'm as TERFy as they come, and I have no problem whatsoever with anyone of either sex or any gender identity buying coconut based exfoliation aids anywhere. Hope that clarifies things!
