Hello I understand dinosaurs now but what's with all the cheese talk?

Yeah, I mean some people like blue cheese.

Yeah but they're just pervs.*

Excuse me? I like blue cheese.

Can we just agree that people have the right to like whatever cheeses they wish, but they cannot oblige others to like them. Some people like cheese with <shudder> cranberries added to it. It still remains cheese, albeit one I would not eat.

It was the 'blue' that threw me off, I hear blue in inverted commas and I think 'movies'.

That's the beauty of cheese though, it's well-known - 'Never having to make yourself clear'.

Datun was the Pope last time I looked?

I've been promoted to Cheese Meister Extraordinaire.

Here! <offers Empress her favourite cheese. Because that's what being a Meister is all about - taps nose>.

Sheep cheese for example. It's in one of the lost gospels I believe, Datun had them down the back of her sofa.

She has the power of turning weetabix to cheese.

To be fair, turning Weetabix into anything - Leighton Buzzard Sand, mushroom compost, an old cable - is better than Weetabix.

Well, as I used to say to my daughter when she was littler:

Cheese, cheese, good for your knees!
But not very good for curing fleas!

How little did I know!

It’s just cheese- but I give it 5 minutes before Twitter is calling it a right wing, transphobic dog whistle.

You are really onto something there!

IwantToRetire · 25/02/2023 17:40

Sometimes it feels that on a long thread that has been important, time crucial or whatever, that when that moment in time ends nobody wants to stop the communication.

Sometimes it feels like we almost need threads that are a bit like an end of term, or whatever, letting your hair down, and go a bit wierd.

And, just to be really boring and a party pooper, means that when addintional information about the actual issue is posted it gets lost or not seen, because those not interested in partying Or cheese) aren't checking into the thread.

Maybe it could become a thing. Post thread debriefs, a chance to relax and have fun.

I saw something about brie..?

No, I dont think so

She says shoving the wrapper in the outside bin, hoping you wont look too closely.

AlisonDonut · 25/02/2023 17:23

Datun was accused of being our new leader (or guru or sotin) and Boiled (iirc) was genuflecting so long she couldn't get up so asked for gin and crackers to be brought down there. And cheese.

Boiled was fine, she got up Caerphilly.

Helleofabore · 25/02/2023 17:15

Because we love cheese. And even posters we disagree with on some things love cheese. It is a unifying experience!

Yeah. Maybe mumsnet needs a Cheese board.

Whey are you asking?

Because it confused me and I felt like I might be missing something in code but no, it's genuinely cheese. And why not, everyone likes cheese.
