Can we have a fun thread?

I will even put if that helps?

I just want a bit of a laugh. There no chatting rubbish, having a joke threads any more.

I dont like it. At all.

Where are the amusing, dont need to feel superior to everyone else people?
Could you all just come in here and hide for a while? I will provide alcohol. And food.

Bit nervous of joining in on this thread seeing as I'm quite new and a MIL but I have got an entire Waitrose birthday cake to offer if anyones interested. Sorry, no drink though I drank it all.

You can tell me to fuck off if you want, but I probably wont go as I'm too thick skinned to take any notice.

I've looked in the Acronyms list but couldn't find it - please tell me, what is PO?
I can think of quite a few things it could stand for but I doubt if any of them are right.

I like the odd ranty thread, attempting to calm it down or add some way to the conversation can be strangely satisfying. It can feel quite dangerous to post amongst some really ranty people with very extreme views. Living life on the edge - but not quite! Especially good then if it all ends on a nice note. You can really find a lot about people's attitudes and motivations behind some of the things they do and say that you might have been baffled by previously. But then I'm a very nosy, kind of people watching person myself! Grin

I like the fun threads too though. Smile

Nah Dawn - he left because he didn't think his character was getting the same amount of development as the others and other cast members got a pay rise when he didn't so didn't feel respected. at least that's what he wrote in his book and told Oprah

He's a huge Obama fan!

This might be just the thread you're after Grin

SomethingkindaOod · 09/01/2014 14:27

It's Professionally Offended.
They seem to get into every thread and derail it totally by getting all PO about an innocent comment the OP has made.
Such as the Irish thread in Chat yesterday (sorry, I know it's bad form to bring another thread into it, but it does rather illustrate the point nicely).

capsium · 09/01/2014 14:29

Celia Just posted, even before I saw your link! Grin I'm a sucker aren't I?

I'm looking for a professionally offended post to shout "May a thousand fleeeeeeeeeeeas infest my beeeeeard!" at.

The Chinny Reckon thread has had me chortling for days.
