to think that falling in your plate is not on at lunch?

So, Sunday lunch at a friend's yesterday. A couple that we know slightly are also invited. The woman who is very bright and very pleasant for the first hour, drinks so much that she is literally unable to speak (but doesn't stop trying), and we all carry on with lunch pretending that everything is normal and not laughing where she can see.

Is this normal? In any way?

You wait till you meet me GOML. You just WAIT. I have a proper dirty accent.

Really filthy.

BatsUpMeNightie · 10/10/2011 16:41

Sorry - haven't read the whole thread. My soul died on page 3! Grin

I would have laughed at her! And I would have laughed at her again the next day. Oh God - there goes another little bit of my already dead soul!

No, can't. Too shy. I am in awe of you being all sociable and that. Especially that.

ShirleyKnot · 10/10/2011 16:42

Will we be drinking though?

ShirleyKnot · 10/10/2011 16:42

Shut up Pinot you spanner and get your name on the list.

PinotScreechio · 10/10/2011 16:42

You used to fancy Lenny fucking Henry? That is so the tramadol talking

BupcakesandHaunting · 10/10/2011 16:42

Well, that's fucking daft innit? So you will only know about the meet-up if you GO LOOKING FOR THE THREAD. Or if you are in a quiche. You fuddymunsters.

Arf! I love Fuddymunster. Might be my next namechange, that.

I will look at meet thread and check it out the details and that.

PinotScreechio · 10/10/2011 16:43

pinit the spanner. I likes.

No, can't. Too shy. Really!

SuePurblybilt · 10/10/2011 16:43

How else did you want to be told Bjups? Singing telegram? Carrier Pigeon?

GetOrfMo1Land · 10/10/2011 16:46

Oh please pinot we will be lovely and that.

ShirleyKnot · 10/10/2011 16:46

Pinot - now just stop your silly nonsense. I'm really really shy and

Buppy, didn't anyone PM you? I got, like, about 17 PM's all begging me to come.

ScarahStratton · 10/10/2011 16:46

There's a meet up? Within 100 miles of me? And nobody told me either? Obviously, I'm in the wrong quiches. :(

BupcakesandHaunting · 10/10/2011 16:46

I wanted a thread. A thread titled "Buppy you sexy cunt, come to the meet" then I wanted everyone to post posts about how much they want to meet me, even the MNers what hate my guts.

ALRIGHT?

(I'm just thick, aren't I? Sad)

BupcakesandHaunting · 10/10/2011 16:47

"Buppy, didn't anyone PM you? I got, like, about 17 PM's all begging me to come"

Can you PM yourself on here? Did not know that...

Link for the blind fools who, despite being on MN, have not seen this at the top of active convos for the last 4 weeks.

COME ON SARAH

BatsUpMeNightie · 10/10/2011 16:47

So thick you probably watch the X Factor!

ShirleyKnot · 10/10/2011 16:47

Man, I really hate it when people do that BTW. You know? When they say:

"I've got literally numbers of personal messages in relation to this thread, ALL AGREEING WITH ME"

GetOrfMo1Land · 10/10/2011 16:48

What twats do that?

SuePurblybilt · 10/10/2011 16:49

There's no meet up or making the sex anyway, it's just a way for MNHQ to rob your houses.

BupcakesandHaunting · 10/10/2011 16:49

I've got literally a MILLION messages all saying that Shirley is a big hairy fanny lezbot.

ShirleyKnot · 10/10/2011 16:49

Them twats that go on AIBU and then froth at the gash for 17 pages while people tell them they ABU.

Them ones.

I can't possibly imagine being with someone who wouldn't make every possible effort to prevent herself from making such a hideous, miserable show of herself.

Well, not again, anyway.

See, this is the thing. I was that bloke. I was the boyfriend of the hideously annoying drunk woman at the big corporate events. I am the man who, even now ten years on, cringes with embarrassment at the memories of the things my pissed-out-of-her-skull ex did in front of my work colleagues.

And I also remember how, at the time, I knew for absolute certain that there was the square root of fuck-all I could do to stop her short of dragging her kicking and screaming from the venue. She was going to get pissed and nothing, nothing I could do to stop her.

But, hey, if you've got some marvellous strategy for stopping someone like that from getting sloppy, angry drunk then I'd be all ears.

ShirleyKnot · 10/10/2011 16:49

MNHQ are sending a representative

TheRhubarb · 10/10/2011 16:51

See this is what happens when you get a website full of bloody wimmin - bloody lezzers!

After 5 pints of Guinness I'll have 'owt with a penis. WITH A PENIS you hear me? Cause I is all woman I am. I likes a bit of cock.

SuePurblybilt · 10/10/2011 16:52

A bit of cock's no good Rhubs, you need a lot of cock. A bit is just ticklish.
