Or am I jumping the Gun?

It's always the same chorus, but only the lyrics stay the same. And only those who know the song understand how hard it is not to keep going.

Whenever I approach the finish line I remember I appear to have jumped the gun and the race starts over. But why? It's always different and I can't keep my cool. No matter how fast I go, you can't escape those fears. Just oonce I would like to get off at the right station coming home from work. That way there is no problem and no trouble. So I ask you when? Why do I always seem to jump the gun?

I have no idea, sorry.

But did you also post this thread, by any chance?

tethersend · 03/08/2011 17:44

Yes.

HTH.

SuePurblybilt · 03/08/2011 17:48

Did Gabby get a punctuation book?

LadyThumb · 03/08/2011 17:56

Ummmmmmmm, eh?

Joolyjoolyjoo · 03/08/2011 18:03

Because you are so busy gazing at your own navel and wittering on about seagulls and such like ?

tethersend · 03/08/2011 18:17

It's not Gabby because- and I never thought I'd type this- Gabby makes more sense.

MissPenteuth · 03/08/2011 18:18

Shock tethers

I think it's a tough call actually.

SuePurblybilt · 03/08/2011 18:21

True. PLus at no point did the OP mention radio features, female presenters or the Tory Party. Discuss.

I'm going to go with bored stoner.

AuntieMonica · 03/08/2011 18:23

this is like one of weirdy fb status thingys that people post to show off they know related to song lyrics Grin

tethersend · 03/08/2011 18:28

No, Gabby posts from the black depths of his heart.

This seems more (and I'll take it back if OP turns out to be ill) contrived IYSWIM.

LadyBeagleEyes · 03/08/2011 18:28

It's not Gabby, but another rather odd poster.
But very surreal and mumsnetty, I love the occasional slightly eccentric poster.
Carry on OP, I'm listening.

SuePurblybilt · 03/08/2011 18:30

In my local bus shelter, the graffiti reads 'without you, all my tomorrows would be the scurf of yesterdays'. I have no idea what that means either but it seems along the same lines , so using my powers of deduction (there's a picture of a spliff next to the graffiti) I still reckon stoner.

tethersend · 03/08/2011 18:32

In my local bus shelter it says "Bus's R shit".

It is called premature ejaculation, you can get help for it you know...

SuePurblybilt · 03/08/2011 18:42

I only know what scurf is from being horsy (white froth) and Jilly Cooper (dandruff). I don't know what West Country teenagers think it means.
One of the buses also has carved/scratched into the back seat 'BOB MARLEY PISSES ON YOURS'. It's DD's favourite bus cos she thinks the picture of a leering cock next to it is a happy worm.

squeakytoy · 03/08/2011 18:43

I blame all this hot weather you know...

Mandy2003 · 03/08/2011 18:45

I think Gabby must be at the Seaside Grin

SarahStratton · 03/08/2011 18:50

Is this a prime example of navel gazing at it's worst best?

HedleyLamarr · 03/08/2011 18:52

Sue, that is the best description of a cock ever. Grin

SuePurblybilt · 03/08/2011 19:13

Grin. Poor little happy blind worm.

I've told her it makes me travel sick to sit there now.

WalterFlipschicks · 03/08/2011 19:17

tethers for some reason I have just nearly sprayed tea on the laptop at Bus's are shit, especially the terrible grammar!

Mandy2003 · 03/08/2011 19:58

Just one thing to say Sue and HedleyLamarr -

This

SuePurblybilt · 03/08/2011 20:32

Blee Mandy! You've seen it then. Grin

Thumbwitch · 17/08/2011 14:55

Oh oh oh - the best picture of a cock ever was the one that a MNer's child drew of granny in the wheelchair! It was an absolute classic!

This thread - meh. Has nothing on the VickyPollardesque one about Sharon and the red wine against the wall. That's just pure stream of consciousness drivel, it's fab!
