To have lurked for so long that am terrified of being an OP?

[Diamondcassis]

Apologies if done to oblivion already.

Have been lurking for an embarrassing YEAR & now feel cannot continue to spy on "active" for any longer without contributing. Actually feel like a voyeur.

Did the rest of you just plough on in without anxiety? Or feel actual Dutch courage was needed to start? Am I just a huge wimp?

A YEAR for heavens sake.

Just don't start any threads on P&C parking spaces or benefits and you'll be fine [bwink]

(waves to fellow thread killers)

Thanks diamond - we'll be doing synchronised swimming in no time

Talc - I've just been ploughing through it and not talking about it a lot. AIBU has kept me laughing though. This last couple of weeks there has been plenty to make me laugh away to myself

13 years Snog - is that a record?!

Sex towels????

Diamond - all is revealed here

Surreal. To be watching the earnestness of The Review Show & reading about a dog lapping the sex sap. Thanks though. Informed now!

I've been using MN for three years, and rarely say anything I tend to kill threads or say something feeble that is largely ignored

See??

I never know how people can lurk. Sometimes I get pissed off and think that's it you fuckers, I'm off. But I still read the posts and last precisely 17 seconds before my fingers are itching to type something.

Welcome diamond! :)
(And you got one of talc's little drawings...I've never had a little drawing )

YABU, as you have not mentioned in this OP:
Greggs sausage rolls
breastfeeding vs bottle feeding
parking in disabled/parent parking spaces
wheelchairs on the bus
grapes
public vs private education

and a million other inflammatory posts.

Where have you been lurking fgs.

You're brave OP my first post in AIBU- I got flammed big time ;)
Welcome

So getting the last word on a thread is not called 'winning' it's actually 'threadkilling'!?

Whoops!
