To think The Lurkers out there should step forward into the light?

[AgentZigzag]

What is it with this bunch of sinister rabble?

Sweatily huddled together, muttering and sighing to themselves in the shadowy corners of MN.

Watching with wide eyes and adrenaline pumping as yet another OP goes down with five or six posters snarling and ripping at the fleshy parts of their dilemma, whilst another bangs the back door on their arse.

Occasionally tempted to post by particularly juicy dreadful threads, the innocent start their posts 'I'm usually just a lurker, but...' takes on a different meaning when you have the knowledge it's a sign to others of their ilk that The Day of Reckoning is near.

On the appointed day, it has been prophesised that The Lurkers (who outnumber posters 6 to 1) will be stirred from their graves self doubting insecurity and kill us all horribly all take the plunge to post at once, this will set in motion a state of affairs so terrible, I tremble at the power.

So let's have a look at you while you reassure us the rumours aren't true.

Or maybe someone who's escaped this groups clutches can enlighten us as to the reason they decided to live this shadowy existance, and how they managed to break away?

Either way

SPEAKETH LURKER! REVEAL THY EVIL PLANS!

And that it'll be shortened to boob Mary

I've only been here about 5 months and lurk more than I post. I have had a post deleted by MNHQ for telling another poster to put her head back up her own arse.

Never underestimate the joys of voyeurism. So much easier and more fun that the terrors of sticking one's head over the parapet and getting shot down.

I'm a lurker. I loves it I do. What you going to do to me now ive posted?

Now now hedley, you shouldnt talk to LeQueen that way, she's royalty dont you know!

I'm only a semi-lurker
The Peeping Tom of AIBU

I feel a bit like someone else said (DressDownFriday?) Now we've been drawn out.... what next? Feels a bit like you're gathering an army.... what is our mission going to be (p.s. state your task, I'm up for it!!)

I do believe its a trap...................

I too, am a lurker, and only an occasional poster, it often seems what I might want to say has already been said more eloquently than I could do, so I continue to lurk instead.....

I see it and I say it...

It wasn't LeQueen ABF, it was a dullard conspiracy theorist. The phrase "thick as mince" was employed. Thanks go to whichever MNer invented that. I'm just sorry I didn't get a screen shot of my post. She put forward her twisted view and I shot her down in spectacular fashion. Then one of them got deleted.

I've only posted now in the hope of discovering TigBits's strategy re: DP's wine.

right what do you lot know about:-

greggs sausage rolls
fruit shoots
naice ham
wolefs
far side of fuck

Hedley, twas an easy mistake to make eh?

Thank you Maryz

I lurk. I like lurking. Therefore I am a lurker. And I will continue to lurk -mainly as I don't want to be out witt ed.

Leave the Ferret alone Maryz....she's just a young 'un.

You mean not screenshotting my every post yes?/no?

I mainly lurk as I can't type as fast as I want to on my phone, but imagine when I'm back skiving at work I'll up my post rate. I even considered joining a meetup today, but then realised I couldn't make it

Is there some kind of initiation ceremony one has to go through to make the full transition? I've started a thread in AIBU, disagreed with someone (meekly) and been disagreed with. But I haven't used an MN in-joke yet, other than the . What else do we need to do?

Ooh thanks maryz, was always to scared to search the bum sex thread, but have now faced my fears.

A warning to all newly outed lurkers, and all those considering stepping over to the other dimension, I turned from lurker to compulsive poster instantly, and it's an irreversible condition

The young ones... Darling we're the young ones...
