I've never been over there, but am curious. It seems to get a fair bit of withering comment from users here. - 'you should put that on netmums' in response to a particularly inane or bigotted comment.

It is sometimes referred to as Nethuns - is that because they are a bit Nazi in their views?

The similar names amuse me though - it is like the Judean People's Front and the People's Front of Judea in the Life of Brian

but crazynanna I thought you were part of the furniture here?

I'm genuinely saddened to know you are 'one of them'.

The fact you are ticker-less lightens my gloom though Grin

I know,Brian,I know.

But it may also warm your cockles to know that I am quite hated over there,and called all kind of names due to my Left Wing leanings....and I call Cameron a prick quite regularly which makes me in the top 5 most hated Wink

Also hate use of the word 'bubba' it should stop immediately, everywhere.

Do you just have to swear to get banned on NM or call someone a twat or something?

BrianCoxHasScaryHair · 11/03/2012 00:24

I luffs you again - go on girly, you get 'em.

BrianCoxHasScaryHair · 11/03/2012 00:25

That should do it.

crazynanna · 11/03/2012 00:25

You can't even say 'bitch'...it reads ***

But if you write a word with full stops..like b.a.s.t.a.r.d ...it works

crazynanna · 11/03/2012 00:27

That should say ***

crazynanna · 11/03/2012 00:28

BrianCoxHasScaryHair · 11/03/2012 00:32

see on NH's you wouldn't have been allowed to swear at your laptop.

crazynanna · 11/03/2012 00:34

Yes you are right...it would have banned me

Proudnscary · 11/03/2012 00:36

Why don't you just go on Netmums and find out OP? Simples

TotemPole · 11/03/2012 00:37

Thanks BeerTricks.

I might sign up. I don't fancy having all the tickers though.

ProcrastinateWildly · 11/03/2012 00:37

There aren't many threads with a title like this on netmums, if you know what I mean Wink

TotemPole · 11/03/2012 00:40

I like the way this site is minimalist, the focus is on what people are saying not all the bells and whistles. Though I think it would be nice to have an easy quote function on here.

Because life is too short and I waste too much time on the internet as it is. The prospect of engaging with what sounds like a bunch of simpering half wits, with a penchant for phonetic spellings and giving each other virtual hugs appeals like a colonic irrigation.

Mind you, be fun to see which of us could get banned the quickest.

Compos, you can browse the chat without signing in.

I've tried. I just get...confused over there with all the...the... prettiness that I never get as far as actual posting.

Honeydragon · 11/03/2012 00:51

I really hope Brian gets told off for using up all those flowers without a single cunt amongst them.
