twas worth it, though, to hear about Paggy bonding with DP by mistake

Grin
VivaLeBeaver · 12/11/2012 14:41

I was racking my memory trying to think who or what the hell is DP.

Clicked now. Oh yes.

Absy · 12/11/2012 15:14

Right, now I've read the whole thread.

I did actually, on occassion, like dp. I remember there was a thread in chat (I'm pretty sure I've mentioned this before) where someone's daft DH had lost their passport in a cab or summat, and they were flying out on vacation the next day. DP asked her dh (who was presumably a cabbie) to send out a cabbie announcement thingy on the radio, to see if they could find the passport AND then also offered the poster a free cab ride to the airport, which was nice. I also LOVED pointing out, on many occassions when dp was mid anti-immigrant rant, that her parents were immigrants so it was all quite hypocritical. I don't know if I ever got to point out that I was an immigrant as well and exploded her brain.

HullyEastergully · 12/11/2012 15:23

Well paggy liked her

a lot

Was she banned in the end? Wouldn't suprise me.

Reading this thread (or indeed any thread that alludes to The Mouldy Ones) is a bit like watching a furrin fillum when you've forgotten your specs- you can catch about one word in four because you had one lesson of Croation by accident in the Lower Fourth (you should've been in Double Physics and didn't spot the difference until the lesson was nearly over), but have no chance of reading the whole story, although it all seems immensely intriguing (and possibly entertaining, in hands-across-the-eyes-is-it-safe-to-look-yet kind of way.)

Absy · 12/11/2012 15:41

It so easily could have been Pag and DP BFF, rather than Pag and Hully.

Think about it

HullyEastergully · 12/11/2012 15:44

No no

pag and dp were more like fuck buddies

If I whisper really really quietly will someone tell me what Mitmoo did? Am almost scared to ask in case the Internet blows up.

Absy · 12/11/2012 15:46

Or a horribly misjudged holiday romance in shagalouf

HullyEastergully · 12/11/2012 15:46

Yes, after far too many Sex on the Beaches

HullyEastergully · 12/11/2012 15:47

intra - Mitmoo was jsut a loon who started mad threads, don't know why all mention of her name gets deleted.

OP posts:
Llareggub · 12/11/2012 15:54

Well, any mention of moldies for me is equivalent to the first airing of The Pogues and the first scoff of a mince pie. It must be Christmas.

Absy · 12/11/2012 15:58

"don't know why all mention of her name gets deleted" probs cos she's actually someone really high up in govt or summat, like the Queen. Mitmoo is the Queen on too many G&Ts I reckon

VivaLeBeaver · 12/11/2012 16:01

That;s it now, klaxon going off at MN towers.

RandallPinkFloyd · 12/11/2012 16:06

Late to the party as usual but can I just say a quiet thank you to Biwi for actually explaining the whole mouldies thing properly without the usual nudge nudge wink wink business Thanks

(Talking of usual where's your side bollocks of shame gone?)

I knew the basics but properly Shock at them having the stones to invite Justine! I had no idea DP and L33 were mates either and I certainly didn't know about Pag and the scissoring Grin

flow4 · 12/11/2012 16:11

I felt a bit like this when girls at school were talking about losing their virginity to The Stray Cats, too... 'Tis intriguing and a bit titillating, but also confusing and clearly faaaaaar too cool for me! Grin

Absy · 12/11/2012 16:17

Or, not the Queen Queen on too many G&Ts, but Justine a fancy MNer

Francagoestohollywood · 12/11/2012 16:25

I still have carved in my memory the names of those moldies who came on here, claiming that MN didn't respect them and miss them as much as they should.

intravenouscoffee · 12/11/2012 16:34

Thank you Hully. Have wondered for ages as the reaction to her name was always so dramatic. Thought perhaps she'd set fire to Justine at the Christmas meet up or something.

GrimAndHumourless · 12/11/2012 16:38

Oh NOES now I'm thinking the Scissor Sisters means THAT, and I shall have to have a REVELATION akin to when I found out that Freddie was gay, and that Boy George actually was a boy, not a girl. oh em gee

HullyEastergully · 12/11/2012 16:42

Did they really do that Franc - complain that they weren't being missed enough?

I wish I had been around then. That is some sense of self importance.

VivaLeBeaver · 12/11/2012 16:47

I wish I either had a better memory or an up to date speadsheet. I've been here ages and can't rememebr what the fuck happened before last year. Previous 9 years are a blur.
