I can't remember why I joined

I'm mostly found on drunk threads

BettySwollocksandaCrustyRack · 10/05/2011 16:31

Bugger it...copy and paste here I come:-

Just because ....

AIBU / Bereavement and sometimes style and beauty and I lurk in chat and adult fiction and sometimes have a peep at the feminist board xx

Getting 100 posts would suggest you're getting a good roasting nanaspjs.

You've got to be unreasonable first.

And it's no good just pretending to be unreasonable, posters can tell.

BettySwollocksandaCrustyRack · 10/05/2011 16:33

Coz I just love everyone xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

nenevomito · 10/05/2011 16:34

Because if I didn't hang out on here I would have to engage more with RL and everyone knows what that kind of thing could lead to.

AgentZigzag · 10/05/2011 16:37

I'm with you babyheave.

RL = scary people

And you don't see anyone like that on here...oh...hang on...

AgentZigzag · 10/05/2011 16:37

BettySwollocksandaCrustyRack · 10/05/2011 16:37

Flisspaps · 10/05/2011 16:39

I googled something and found a link to an AIBU thread. Within minutes I knew that this was the place for me Grin

I like AIBU, Chat, Post-Natal and unanswered messages.

AgentZigzag · 10/05/2011 16:39

'as i was depressed and she thought "it would cheer me up" '

Was that her considered professional opinion? Grin

droves · 10/05/2011 16:42

Agentzigzag .... i believe so ...Grin .
I think shes on here too actually ....

Tortington · 10/05/2011 16:43

cos my best friend insisted it was good. so i tried and back in the dark ages before chat and enoticons, and when mn hq has little kids - it was all centred around small children well mine were about 10 at the time and i though mn was a load of shit. full of lentil weaving pinko liberal posh tarts who likes posh tart one upman ship. so i didnt bother for ages. then BF phoned me and e-mailed me and its all mn this and mn that - so i thought i would give it another go

still bored of my tits with breastfeeding and nappy changing ..so i got my kicks by being one of only a couple of WC birds who told people straight.

FabbyChic · 10/05/2011 16:49

YOu have two threads I shall post the same answer on both, I joined to answer eBay questions, found AIBU, then Chat then Relationships, I post on all three.

AgentZigzag · 10/05/2011 16:58
