Dilemmas involving texting tattoos to married men? BFFs? Angry Facebook defriendings? Lolling?!

There's things in my life I have never posted about on MN because it would bring out the full force of my Inner Po and if that met torrents of OtherView Po on the thread, I would implode.

MardyBra · 06/12/2013 15:21

Sorry. That should read: "I just don't find it very amusing as a concept".

mardy / LaQueen I confess that I used 'LO' on a thread earlier. It just slipped out. It's like zombies took over my head for a minute Confused

LineRunner · 06/12/2013 15:25

Well no, I don't think the actual OP itself was side-splittingly amusing, Mardy, but surely the concept of theft has given us some of the greatest movies and movie lines of all time.

You're only supposed to blow the bloody doors off. I rest my case.

usualsuspect · 06/12/2013 15:28

Its just all so dull atm.I cba with most of it anymore

No banter allowed.Heated debate is deleted for being a bunfight

Its all a bit shit

nickeldonkeyonadustyroad · 06/12/2013 15:28

it's whenposters make outrsged threads that get jumped upon by the po for being "have you got nothjng better to wprry about?" or "massive overreaction" or even "you'd smash your child round thhe head with a fence because you dropped a sock? Shock you need to be locked up!" rther than realising it might just bes lighthearted
Hmm

MardyBra · 06/12/2013 15:31

I was trying to not to overly criticise the OP Line. And that led to me using an inaccurate generalisation.

LineRunner · 06/12/2013 15:35

That's coz you is luffly, Mardy. Smile

LineRunner · 06/12/2013 15:39

I know, usual. Some of the wittiest threads lurk within places like Telly Addicts.

I though you'd put hecate deleted for debate then! Shock

I actually would say stuff in mn that I wouldn't say in real life.
it's one of its main draws for me. I like to come here and throw cuntbucket fannyflap fucking shitwords around with gay abandon 'because I can't do it irl.

maras2 · 06/12/2013 15:50

In all fairness though ' bubs ' and ' kindy ' are used by the Aussie M'sNetters.I think it's in their vernacular.Still hate it though.

Yep. Sweetness and light. Always. Wink

What's kindy?

You know it's time to get some real life friends when issues on a forum start bothering you!

LineRunner · 06/12/2013 15:59

I'm, fine, Maryz. It's just the medication. And I haven't had my leg over for a week.

LineRunner · 06/12/2013 16:00

You know it's time to get some real life friends when issues on a forum start bothering you!

And that, my friend, is a work of genius.

I've noticed lots more posts starting 'omg!' creeping in. They make me gnash my teeth. I always want to ask 'are you 12? Is it past your bedtime, perchance?'.

I got asked who made me the thread police last week - because I was the first to ask a particularly vile poster why they had started a (particularly vile) thread about immigrants and benefits. I mean, really, why else would you start that unless you're either a) a goady fucker or b) want to have a go at immigrants on benefits (which they then went on to do!).

I've also noticed the 'lol's' and kisses. If I wanted that shite, I certainly wouldn't be here with you shower of complete bastards!

we used to use university to mean the establishment or the studying we were going to do, but called it college day to day.

eg: to parents "I'm going to university"
to flatmates at 830 Monday morning "I'm going to college"
