Was I BU?

[tescocarrierbagexplosion]

I've spent the last 6 months reading this forum everyday, and discussing it with one of my best friends...

I only signed up today... She thinks I was being unreasonable.. She's been a member for years!
I was just a bit scared of you all!

So was I being unreasonable to lurk for so long?!

Ps...

LEAVE THE BASTARD!!!

(Had to get in there first!)

yes of course you were, you wouldn't sit at a table in a cafe and listen to a conversation without joining in. did you know your friend was on here? did she know you were lurking? did you recognise her posts? creeped out

Ohhh no, we were discussing the posts that we had both read on here! I've got no idea who she is on here!!! I'm not a stalker!!

yaanbu. pleaase enjoy! and welcome! oh and excuse typos random keyb oard. ha

Welcome to Mumsnet

As long as you learn the MN rule you'll be fine.

All men are bastards, covered in a coating of crispy bastard, with a liberal sprinkling of bastard flakes and a bastard cherry on top.

Oh and we now own the rights to your pubic hair

But we'll fight amongst ourselves as to whether it stays or goes.

I think it's taken me the full 6 months to work out what everything meant!

Pfb took me absolutely ages!

for everyone!

Straight in there with the knife on the first post to prove the point thursday?

What kinds of things have you been lurking on tesco?

phew! the idea of a friend secretly watching me prattle on the internet, eek! now you've jumped off the ledge, get stuck in. people can't be scary, they're 2D!

I lurked for ages before I sent my first post Op.
I think most people do.
thursday, that was really unwelcoming and rather mean.

lol, lurking unnerves me!

Not me LBE straight in with both feet

I got told I was too 'confident for a newbie'

Apparently I should have doffed my cap and stuttered and stammered for a week or two.....

I always imagine The Lurkers to be a bit shady and sinister too thurs

Wearing the womens equivalent of a dirty mac and looking shifty on the darker boundaries of threads.

Haha I really worded my first post badly!!

My friend reads this forum, and got me to start reading it and we were discussing the same threads together! I don't know her username and I'd probably be far to dense to realise if it was her posting!

I'm not shady at all!

* puts on long coat and hat and shuffles into a dark corner *

Can I ask though is the biscuit a good or bad thing?! It's one thing that confuses me!

its more fun if you don't know their username! i have friends here and we dont' know who each other are. well, i've not spotted them yet anyway... join in tho! that's the fun, otherwise you may as well read take a break. :)

Oooo I prefer pick me up and love it! Last one I bought though went in my maternity bag... I never got the chance to read it... And have never bought one since!

YANBU. I lurked a good bit of time too...now let's get cracking..promise you will never shave/wax or otherwise humiliate your Fanjo..and never ever under any circumstances get into a parking wars thread...

The is a no comment but generally assumed to be bad. The only reason I don't like lurkers is that they get used as the moral majority on here. Lots of the-lurkers-probably-agree nonsense.

I'm a lurker. Hello.

Firstly, Kudos for your first post being in AIBU, my first was in babynames and I got properly flamed. YANBU

I lurked for a while!
