Trying hard not to laugh

98 replies

Temperatures · 07/11/2011 16:57

It?s been three years since I started my work. But do most on here really work? Unless you count dwelling. Yet here I am laughing. But your not laughing, I am not you. So heres the deal.

I get to complain. And you get to listen. Whenever I go out for drive I think what goes around comes around. But enough is enough. I am tired of always asking WHY and not WHO. Who is a better question surely? Who is you.
Last time I make my message. You all could do with listening to my voice.

Does the OP have a temperature?

FruStefanLindman · 07/11/2011 19:34

I'd blame a few of those herbal jazz fags, if I were you.

Yes. Or no. It all depends. Maybe on a Tuesday, but only if it's raining in Norfolk. And even then you must beware of the man with the gold tooth. He is not to be trusted. If you pay me just £49 I will tell you how you can win £7700. Dirty postcards for sale.

AmazingBouncingFerret · 07/11/2011 19:37

Picnicbasketcase is VERY well named I feel.

Reeling - I have a temp and I am not talking inane bollocks. Or am I? Fuck knows. With any luck I shall hallucinate soon and it will all start to make sense.

But as we're in AIBU...WIBU to let my 2 year old put herself to bed while I die slowly on the sofa?

picnicbasketcase · 07/11/2011 19:42

I can talk rubbish with the best of them RockStock, but this OP's even more nonsensical than me.

I really wish I knew what they were talking about. Maybe it's a riddle? My first is in tree but not in bush, etc. I thought they were describing the job they do, but I can't figure it out.

Psammead · 07/11/2011 19:55

Ok. Here's my best effort to make it make sense.

It's been three years since I started work. But do most mumsnetters really work, discounting day-to-day life? I am happy and yet you lot are not, despite the fact that you have it better than me. So here's the deal.

I get to complain, and you get to listen. When I go out for a drive, I reason that what goes around comes around, but enough is enough. I am tired of asking why things are as they are instead of who is responsible. Surely asking 'who' is a more astute question. And that 'who' is you.

This is the last I am going to say on the matter, but you'd do well to listen to me.

I think it's Liz Jones without her spell check.

Seriously though, it does sound a little like a cry for help using a translation engine. Or a troll on speed.

picnicbasketcase · 07/11/2011 20:01

Shock That actually made sense Psammead!

RockStockAndTwoOpenBottles · 07/11/2011 20:03

I think troll on speed may be close Grin

OhDoAdmit · 07/11/2011 20:03

chandon I was an aghast spectator during the excesses of the 80s. A working class know-nothing dropped into an arty world of trustafairians who all went to St Martins and Goldsmiths.

I was amazed at the way posh girls were so willing to get their tits out in the name of art.

I also have a few actor friends and have been to a few erm interesting performances.

My life is soooooo dull now.

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 07/11/2011 20:04

Troll on speed. Fo' schizzle.

BoffinMum · 07/11/2011 20:09

I get things like this in the spam filter as comments on my blog. There must be an industry out there of people writing them!

Can we tie the troll on speed up with the free goats on other threads!

TheLittleFriend · 07/11/2011 20:46

vivi - i prefer a simple "does the pope shit in the woods?" Grin

Hullygully · 07/11/2011 20:52

Put the gun down, temperatures, it's not the way

lovecat · 07/11/2011 20:57

TheLittleFriend, you beat me to it, that's our family saying (only we prefer the classic 'does the pope crap in the woods') :o

RalphGnu · 07/11/2011 20:58

OP, I was just going to say that! Shock

Amazing.

ViviPru · 07/11/2011 20:59

I save that one for Sundays :)

Psammead, what a sage goblin you are. Next time I get an incomprehensible email from a buyer requesting a millionth redesign, I'm winging it your way.
