Come and help.

Fruit shoots? Disabled vs parent parking? The nhs? Mcdonalds? Skanky benefit claimants and their 100000000000 offspring? Boden?

Come on people, I need to get this anger out!

You utter bastard, OP, how very dare you start this thread on one of the few days I'm not feeling murderous and stabby.

Where were you yesterday when I needed it, eh? Eh?

No consideration, etc.

Vintagejazz · 30/09/2014 15:52

I had a right go at a 90 year old disabled man for parking in a P&C space today. The bloody cheek of him.

Could you come and take a phone call for me then please?

I had a bit of a rant last week (very unusual for me) to someone about some decisions that were being made. The decisions have come and even more confirmed what I said than I expected. Hmm
She now wants to talk to me this evening and I really can't be bothered. In some ways I owe it to others (as I know there is a general feeling around) but I really can't be bothered, and really just want to gently withdraw.

I know full well that ranting won't be able to change anything this year, and probably won't change anything any other year too. The other person will sound reasonable and won't admit anything that I know is behind things, because part of her job in what we're doing is to protect and smooth things over-and very good at it she is too.
But I also know that whatever she says it won't change my knowledge, so there isn't really any point in discussing it.

Your username is crap.

BeyondTheLimitsOfAcceptability · 30/09/2014 16:00

Shock well that is too far, big!

I got distracted getting banned from a facebook group for calling someone a goady cunt. Seems that isnt allowed out of mn Grin

I've just noticed a thread about the proper frequency of washing bed linen. That should turn vicious at some point

Chippednailvarnish · 30/09/2014 16:03

Cheesecake makes me cough and don't even start me on about yoghurt.

I don't like key lime pie either.

ithoughtofitfirst · 30/09/2014 16:05

WHAT THE FUCK IS KEY LIME PIE

MizLizLemon · 30/09/2014 16:06

Start a thread on cyclists on pavements, be either rabidly pro or anti, that should be good and goady enough. Or that you love/hate dogs.

BeyondTheLimitsOfAcceptability · 30/09/2014 16:06

What is a key lime??

OP posts:
TortoiseUpATreeAgain · 30/09/2014 16:09

It's a small yellow fruit about half the size of a real lime.

AdamLambsbreath · 30/09/2014 16:10

Bedsheets! Yes! Why has no-one mentioned this?

For true bloodletting, start a thread saying that you wash your bedsheets once a month, your towels once a week and you like loo brushes. Sorted.

BTW, a key lime is a lime that's important. Obvs.

LaurieFairyCake · 30/09/2014 16:10

'Cheesecake makes me cough'

Fuck off, that's not a real thing either.

Do you mean itty bitty little bits of biscuit make you cough?

Ya twat Grin

LOLZ.

Chippednailvarnish · 30/09/2014 16:14

This is key lime pie, you philistines.

AbbieHoffmansAfro · 30/09/2014 16:17

If you want a fight get over to the 'Oh you stupid British and your weirdo class system' thread.
I typed and deleted two rude answers to that OP, before deciding I. Could.Not.Be.Bothered.

BeyondTheLimitsOfAcceptability · 30/09/2014 16:18

I see, now i want to be fighty, but not quite up to banning me level Grin

WhatTheHellDoWeCallThisBaby · 30/09/2014 16:20

I once accidentally started a huge fight amongst extended family by "key lime" meant kiwi-and-lime. I wasn't being goady, I honestly thought it was true.

There were a lot of raised voices. It wasn't pretty.

PausingFlatly · 30/09/2014 16:20

Ooh, that grates my carrot too, DeWee. "Come and sit down and I'll repeat in a cool, soothing tone the exact same things I've already said, that were unacceptable first time round."

As if this somehow changes the situation.

Lolz thanks for linky babez.

Amanda Holden is beautiful with all that botox and if you think otherwise you are just a jealous bitch.

Mounting the pavement in your 4x4 to drop the DC's off at school is perfectly acceptable, fuck the plebs that want to walk on the footpath.

Did you not invite my DS/DD to your brat's birthday party? How dare you. I don't care about your budget, numbers etc, drop someone else or I'll have you at the school gates.

Ahem, now that's better!

Chippednailvarnish · 30/09/2014 16:29

Children should be compulsory at weddings.

QueenTilly · 30/09/2014 16:33

Could someone tell me what [insert colour] reading band means for my DC? He's in reception, and the words are only two syllables long each. That's not very good, is it?
