Yes MNHQ posted to say it was going to be deleted - thread about a deleted thread after all

JesusWept · 14/05/2012 20:32

Absolutely!

McPhee - I think it must have gone poof. I posted on it and now it is not in my list of threads anymore.

ShutUpMeg · 14/05/2012 20:39

There are a lot of women on here who have never seen the ocean. It's obvious.

CallMeAl · 14/05/2012 20:40

just the misogynistic "oh its all a bit bitcy, have you got your periods " bullshit.

doormat · 14/05/2012 21:02

callmeal...it was intended to be lighthearted...there is only you that hasnt seen the funny side lol

CallMeAl · 14/05/2012 21:04

if you say so. I'm sure someone finds you hilarious.

BumpingFuglies · 14/05/2012 21:11

CallMeAl - lighten up. It's a lighthearted thread.

Here, have a Brew

PoppyWearer · 14/05/2012 21:39

Amen, OP! Haven't read the whole thread but am sick of starting light-hearted threads only to have serious MN'ers pile on and tell me I am BU (on Chat? WTF?). I tried a few last week and over the weekend and just ended up hiding them.

I am a new returner to MN, my period was at the end of last week, so maybe I haven't quite re-synch'ed yet?

usualsuspect · 14/05/2012 21:40

I'm just fed up of all the threads about dog and cat shit. There seems to be a new one started every day.

BumpingFuglies · 14/05/2012 21:41

Poppy - are you being sarky?

Gimme the feminax

Get0rfMoiLand · 14/05/2012 21:51

I am fed up of the dog shit threads and the supermarket staff threads.

BumpingFuglies · 14/05/2012 21:54

Dogs and supermarkets are lovely. Staff are lovely. Everyone is lovely.

I know, GetOrf, it's been a bit too much today.

LadyBeagleEyes · 14/05/2012 21:55

And there's another Parent and Child post just started on AIBU.
WTF and I don't even get periods anymore.

BumpingFuglies · 14/05/2012 22:01

Lady - you can have mine if you like! Yes another P&C parking.

Poppy - should have put Smile in my post, hope didn't take offence?

pictish · 14/05/2012 22:23

Hello - I think I was probably the rude person on the cat shit thread. I have reported my own post on there.
My apologies. I read it back and can see I got carried away. I was thinking about how foul I find cat shit when I wrote it.
Sorry Dee.

EatsBrainsAndLeaves · 14/05/2012 22:26

Lady - How is your dog's eyes? Grin

Beaaware · 14/05/2012 22:47

I'm a really nice person I really am

AnyFucker · 14/05/2012 22:51

I came on my period this evening, I have cramps like fuck, but I think I've been quite naice today Smile

CallMeAl · 14/05/2012 22:54

conversely I have no periods at all and am generally a cranky auld bitch. Smile

Dee03 · 14/05/2012 22:57

Apology accepted pictish.
Ive just written on the other thread

Smile
pictish · 14/05/2012 23:03

I forgot that rule about engaging brain before opening mouth. When I read it back I was mortified. It 'sounded' really vicious, and in all honesty I don't even care about it that much.
A moment in advanced arseholery there I think. Blush

MarySA · 15/05/2012 09:48

I want something interesting to read. Or I'll have to go and watch TV.

AnyFucker · 15/05/2012 10:16

it's great when people apologise, and mean it

and people accept the apology, and mean it

Smile
EatsBrainsAndLeaves · 15/05/2012 11:25

OP I agree some posters can be just nasty. Was it Pagwatch who said something like, its fine to debate and tell people they are wrong, but it doesn't mean you have to be a fucker.

For example some of the responses in the holiday from hell thread are just horrible. Yes the OP is unreasonable and over the top, but ridiculing for example her blog about a bad birth experience is just plain nasty.
