Hello, so I've been lurking for an embarrasingly long time- (started as a diversion to not smoking)
Always too scard to post- terrible speller and typer.
Anyway have rare weekend alone- still in bed- read paper- had tea and crumpets- put on washing and now can't be arsed to do any of the work I stayed home to catch up on (rest of family gone camping)
So AIBU to out myself and say hello?

Good morning newbies and oldbies...

I too am in the depths of guttedness at the atrocity performed in Auckland this morning.

My first post was a Zombie AIBU...I had no clue it was such a big thing on here.

Zombies rule...

Oh dear - do I care - er, no, too lazy. Thanks for the heads up though.

I'm too lazy as well - i will hide behind you Smile

ClipboardAnnie · 08/10/2011 12:40

Thankyou, Maryz, for your advice. I've amended my user name.
So excited here - 3 posts in one day after months of lurking. Have to have a little lie down to recover from all the nervous tension.

You do know it's all down hill from now on... A bit like Pringles, once you pop you can't stop.

OtterBjitch · 08/10/2011 13:35

I'm very impressed with the newly-revealed lurkers names. Grin Although I don't actually object to the occasional Mommy2Bubba78

gaveitago · 08/10/2011 13:45

Sorry, I am a lazy git - that's why I'm still here - by the way I've even posted in other threads- I feel so emansipated.

Proudnreallyveryscary · 08/10/2011 13:56

It's emancipated.

Glad you have outed yourself, very jealous of your lazy day AND crumpets. And hello! x

BarkisIsWillin · 08/10/2011 14:01

Otterbitch - one of the reasons I finally came out of lurkdom is I finally managed to think of a good (well, in my humble opinion) name.

BarkisIsWillin · 08/10/2011 14:02

Sorry Otterbjitch

OtterBjitch · 08/10/2011 14:03

Grin I do like a literary reference that I actually recognise a lot of them go over my head

Blatherskite · 08/10/2011 14:04

Congratulations on the de-lurking :)

ABF is rigth though, you'll never be able to stop now.

FunnysInTheGarden · 08/10/2011 14:06

hello lurkers. I too was a serial lurker until I got brave enough to post regularly about 2 years ago. Since then my life has improved unimaginably.............Grin

OtterBjitch · 08/10/2011 14:08

Bitch....bjitch...whatever. Smile

MardyMwahHaHa · 08/10/2011 14:11

Hello lurkers

Like Funnys I used to lurk too once, although probably nobody would believe that now.

Now you've delurked, you now need to experience your first flaming.

gaveitago · 08/10/2011 14:26

Can't wait for a flaming- I'm going out into the real world now- back tonight and I hope to have thought up a really annoying thread title. Oh and thanks for the correction Proud...

BarkisIsWillin · 08/10/2011 15:17

Ooooh don't think I could cope with a flaming just yet. I think I'll play safe for a while (runs back into corner)

SayGhoulNowSayWitch · 08/10/2011 15:23

Barkis - you're a cunt!

So are you, gaveitago!

Happy now? That constitutes a flaming in my book.... :o

BarkisIsWillin · 08/10/2011 15:33

SayGhoul Thanks a lot shitface

SayGhoulNowSayWitch · 08/10/2011 15:46

See? Now you're getting it! :o

PandorasSocks · 08/10/2011 15:52

Barkis, you're dead brave you are!

OtterBjitch · 08/10/2011 15:59

GO AND WRITE YOUR ESSAY, SAYGHOUL!

Barkis! Shock Well done, you'll be on a 'Favourite MNer' thread before you know it. Smile
