@Ereshkigalangcleg

RAMO?
Hah! Yes.

Or maybe YOMTUB

(You only missed the usual bollocks)

ErrolTheDragon · 18/12/2020 16:03

Quite often I've not got a clue what you're talking about because a thread has been deleted before I've even seen it.

It induces what might be termed inverse FOMO - relief to have missed out on whatever-it-was.

How much beer did you put in the batter, Asking, and was it like a normal Yorkshire pudding batter with added beer?

Ereshkigalangcleg · 18/12/2020 16:00

Especially since with only a few posts so far there's already lol-ing.

But of course.

My DC are crazy for bagels but I have never tried baking my own.

Did they turn out well Tartrazine?

TartrazineCustard · 18/12/2020 15:38

It's my first day off work for the hols, so I've baked some bagels. Sesame seeds are my favourite coating for them.

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 17/12/2020 18:07

Toad-in-theHole made with beer in the batter, and cabbage-and-onion with it. Caraway seeds in the cabbage.

ArabellaScott · 17/12/2020 16:35

A good day for blinis and fizz, I say.

nauticant · 17/12/2020 16:26

I've got my own thoughts about that thread but because this one will be monitored and could be targeted for deletion I'm going to move on to discuss other stuff.

TyroTerf · 17/12/2020 15:15

And of course, with it being deleted, no one can verify the accusation of terrible transphobia.

I finished reading it about fives minutes before it was deleted. Didn't see anything transphobic. Did see some sexism, but only from the OP.

ColourMagic · 17/12/2020 15:10

What a manipulative tweet!

Winesalot · 17/12/2020 15:09

And there it is. All about the twatter kudos....

Collidascope · 17/12/2020 15:01

And the obligatory report to twitter about how transphobic MN is. All in good faith.

Shame it was deleted, there was an interesting comment on there about "feminine" online-speak that I was writing a reply to.

Wrongsideofhistorymyarse · 17/12/2020 14:57

It sounded so much like my niece when she came out. Except she was furious I wouldn't validate her and told me so.

Collidascope · 17/12/2020 14:52

Seeing the level of confusion and immaturity on that thread makes it even worse when you see what men like Jolyon Maugham are campaigning for.

nauticant · 17/12/2020 14:52

Maybe it will help the mods realise that there's mischief afoot against FWR. Or maybe they'll just shake their heads disappointedly at people failing to "be kind".

PotholeParadies · 17/12/2020 14:49

I read up to page 2.

I felt it was best and kindest not to post.

Winesalot · 17/12/2020 14:46

I didn’t get to read more than half. It did seem like a need for validation for their recent realization though. A few months .... hmmmm.

Winesalot · 17/12/2020 14:44

Gone

PotholeParadies · 17/12/2020 14:12

I think I used to avoid FWR on account of one of the above. But he turned up on any thread that touched on why women might be treated shabbily all over the rest of the site, too.

MedusasBadHairDay · 17/12/2020 14:07

@PotholeParadies

I looked at old threads and found an argument with me, Maryz and japab which has driven me all round the bend and up the Embankment. Thence to Temple.
Every now and then I think about searching for old threads that I've been on, but then I remember how engaged and annoyed I used to get. I've got better at ignoring trolls and goady fuckers now Grin

I suspect that many of the answers on that thread will be driven by making a particular point rather than what's actually true. I'll watch but it's not one to engage with.
