Assuming quite a few of u will of seen the removed thread where it seems someone thought they could be very rude and hurtful in reference to an internet handle! - obvs if u reference a show or celebrity in ur handle u hold the same views & lifestyle etc.....
So just for full disclosure, as I was unaware of this rule before an insightful dickhead of a poster drew my attention too it - I'm not more coffee than actual human person, I just quite like it - I'm definitely at least 90% human

sarcasm alert incase any one is offended - it is mn after all

I'm at least 68% coffee right now and I'm quite aware I can be a cain in the punt although I try not to be all the time.

lostInTheWash · 08/10/2015 12:07

So I must be east Anglia possibly facing same fate as King Johns crown jewels, or I'm in an ikea designed car wash perhaps desperately following painted lines which just led to more of the same and no exits , or perhaps I've stepped into the washing machine and am lost as I'm drowning as the machine slowly fills.

It's not looking good for me really.

fourquenelles · 08/10/2015 12:07

Blush I have never made a quenelle in my life, let alone four of them. I do like Master Chef with its overuse of quenelle type things and I thought it sounded a bit rude if said quickly.

BrianCoxReborn · 08/10/2015 12:33

I am not Brian Cox.

Neither the actor nor the dead eyed weirdo astrologist (yes I know he's an astrophysicist)

BrianCoxReborn · 08/10/2015 12:34

Shock it wasn't a thread I was on was it? I have offended a few Pro Brianers in the past, but that was when my moniker included mild insults about his scary hair or large teeth

unlucky83 · 08/10/2015 12:45

I am actually lucky sometimes...but MN wouldn't let me be - so I decided I was in fact being unlucky...
83 is random ...(year of birth is sadly an even smaller no)...but not my favourite number - which is 27 ....but still I like 83.

Moreshabbythanchic · 08/10/2015 12:47

Sadly mine is very true.

PlummyBrummy · 08/10/2015 12:47

I'm a posh sounding person from Birmingham which is quite difficult to pull off really.

MrsExcited · 08/10/2015 12:50

I am excited, at 39+4 to meet my baby.

It didn't work so well as a user name through the mmc and ectopic pregnancy but I kept faith!!

EponasWildDaughter · 08/10/2015 12:50

My mother's name is not Epona.

PetitPiaf · 08/10/2015 13:05

I am small but not a sparrow. Or French. Love Edith Piaf though.

Just to clarify.

ChatEnOeuf · 08/10/2015 13:07

I am neither a cat nor a Francophone. I would like to sit on my egg arse all day, though.

Ineedtimeoff · 08/10/2015 13:14

I'VE GOT TIME OFF!!!

So sorry for shouting but as of Friday I'm off work for over 2 weeks. We're off to Disney Florida.

I actually have 5 left toes, sorry.

EnjoyTheSimpleThingsInLife · 08/10/2015 13:18

I don't actually enjoy the simple things in life

I WAS once the LastOneDancing at a wedding while 22 weeks pregnant and stone cold sober.

Now I have a toddler and I'm the FirstOneLeavingThePartyAndGoingToBed.

Chillyegg · 08/10/2015 13:28

I'm fucking freezing most of the time.
So yes indeed I am a Chillyegg in the metaphorical sense.

NeedMoreSleepOrSugar · 08/10/2015 13:39

I need more sleep, but failing that, sugar will suffice!

UmbongoUnchained · 08/10/2015 13:45

TheImprobableGirl · 08/10/2015 13:45

I'm quite a predictable adult in all fairness... With somewhat of a penchant for Dr who
