You're obviously no farmer, Sophocles 😁
ha! No, not in any sense Grin

Well, holly is the obvious plant to raise awareness of biological discrimination at this time of year. It's only the females which get hacked about and sold as throwaway decoration.

@HecatesCatsInXmasHats

Just back from a GC sit-in in the veg isle in Tescos. Making sure Xmas shoppers know it takes male + female = asparagus. Did I miss anything?
YOMTUB. Grin

I have a kiwi vine in my garden, but I never get any kiwis because you need a male and a female. I’ve told it over and over again that it’s a bio essentialist, it could make baby kiwis if it just tried a bit harder, I’ve shamed it all over Twitter and reported it to West Yorkshire police. Still no kiwis Sad

Did you get any American feminists?

I'm agog at what seems to be an attempt to alienate lurkers.

I've noticed that the two latest prolific visitors never post on the same thread. I would have thought they would want to support each other.

PotholeParadies · 22/12/2020 11:40

Break-time on a night shift, I expect.

@PotholeParadies

Someone turned up at 1am to ask us to justify why we were being feminists when some surveys said women didn't want feminism, and to tell us off for our presumption for speaking for a group that didn't want it. (As if we aren't women ourselves?)

There was a Discuss at the end.

That one?

Oh was he back again? The midnight misogynist Grin he can’t help it, he always has to post the “facts” about why most women don’t want feminism. He never has any new material, but to be honest in these uncertain times, there’s comfort in repetition.
GCAcademic · 22/12/2020 11:22

Leave them to it, I say. The behaviour is very revealing and does a lot of heavy lifting on our behalf when it comes to lurkers.

CaraDuneRedux · 22/12/2020 11:18

Sigh.

That is all.

I missed those... maybe he was hoping for Xmas recipes?

FannyCann · 22/12/2020 08:12

Yes that one Pothole. Bless, they don't last long.

Winesalot · 22/12/2020 08:02

Sounds like it was busy in the wee hours. Not much happened after the sports one (which was started around midnight) disappeared at 2 ish.

Winesalot · 22/12/2020 08:00

Two particular external watchers with a mn addiction have been prolific in their mentioning and posting threads on twatter over past two days.

Winesalot · 22/12/2020 07:56

Which one? One on sports? It went right before my eyes?

thread deleted

Message from MNHQ: Thanks for the reports. And thanks to the Nightwatchers for hiding this returning troll.

Or was there more?

FannyCann · 22/12/2020 07:51

Did I dream it? Been and gone over night. Maybe it was one of those exam nightmares I still get occasionally even in my old age. "Discuss".
No thanks, can't be bothered.

ArabellaScott · 21/12/2020 17:38

I thought B&Q were good for all your terven needs.

SophocIestheFox · 21/12/2020 15:31

@MichelleofzeResistance

Its no more than 3 feminists per customer in our Tesco Errol since there's a pandemic on. I suppose people were stockpiling them.

TyroTerf · 21/12/2020 14:33

Well it definitely wasn't me - I limit my terfing to Sainsbury's.

Actually that's a lie: I save the public terven discussion for the way home, cos I don't want to get banned.

ErrolTheDragon · 21/12/2020 12:45

I got the impression the latter items were sadly a bit low on stock at the moment, or maybe just hidden at the back of a storeroom.Sad
