What happened to the £5 steak dinner thread ???

[OhdearNigel]

I always miss the bunfights

Dunno I was too busy going out for steak, what happened?

was it a troll, they also had a thread on erectile disfunction didn't they?

I thought it was very funny, coupled with erectile dysfunction it made for amusing reading. Not that I am suggesting genuine erectile dysfunction is at all amusing.

It was a load of old boswollox.

What an odd thing to troll about

I hope it was a troll. No one should put up with that sort of thing.

a troll? so what? unless there's further details I've missed it was just a rather funny rather than controversial thread

(damn dd and her constant requests for cups of milk! I'd only nipped to the kitchen)

Oh weird. Didn't seem trollish, I know she had posted about the tightwad before but hmm... oh well.

Intriguingly, MNHQ referred to there being a lot of trollery today

I loved the thread. There was a thread about the coffee before - him drinking all hers and she only being allowed on cup at his!!

I wish I were a troll....they have all the fun!

It wasn't malicious. Not like some threads, that seek to manipulate the emotions of people who have been through tough times. Those latter threads are the ones I would prefer MNHQ to seek to eradicate.

What was in it,ive been away

What other threads were the same troll then?

What could you possibly troll about with a 5 pound steak dinner,did people get hungry and then disappointed they couldnt afford it?

shame, though he was almost too awful to be true

It was the woman with the cheap bloke who spends loads on food when he stays and he doesn't spend anything????

Was it a troll? God, how boring. Why bother?

When I was reading it though, I was thinking I either had the strongest sense of deja vu, or somebody actually did post something really similar a few months ago. Anyone else remember? I'm sure the original one was a bloke who would only feed her tinned soup and the crust of the bread when she came round, and yet she made him steak dinners (and didn't charge him)...or summat? ...Must be true as no idea why I would remember tinned soup and crust of bread...

Shame, I loved the detail about the marked-down asparagus

The thread went because the OP's DP wanted to charge her a fee for sharing their relationship with us.

The two for one Harry Potter cinema tickets where she had to pay for half of his ticket was a great touch I thought.

Ooh ooh I thought it was a troll. Troll hunting points for me . A bit disappointing though...

There's another thread that's disappeared today too.
It was somone having a go at an unamed poster, but no names were mentioned.
It then went off on a tangent and was perfectly harmless.
Why are they deleting threads so quickly just now.
It's just no fun any more, banter seems to have been banned.

That thread is why I'll never be a novelist or a troll. The bit about passing the present through the gap in the door as it was late and he didn't want to take the chain off - how does one even begin to make up stuff like that.

But I didn't make up the fact that a friend of mine somehow got herself into a relationship with someone just like that... complete with bucket of rainwater for 'flushing' the loo.
