WHY? Surely its the nature of the whole site that people care about trivia?
If no one did we wouldnt have anything to talk about!

Haven't you got anything worse to worry about than Boursin?

ShatnersBassoon · 02/01/2016 21:07

It's soft, garlic cheese.

rosewithoutthorns · 02/01/2016 21:09

Its called trivia, whether you think its dull or not, better than heavy pc shite. Actually who are you to say its dull? go fuck off to something you think is meaty then

VikingVolva · 02/01/2016 21:11

" go fuck off to something you think is meaty then"

I must have an irredeemably dirty mind...

Take away the trivial shit and what do we have? Breastfeeding wars and the feminists disagreeing about Caitlin Jenner

rosewithoutthorns · 02/01/2016 21:20

So what? we all like different, nothing to snigger about cold really is it.

Move on and post on something else.

BathshebaDarkstone · 02/01/2016 21:20

It's not my thread about loos is it? It's not trivial, it's an annoying waste of my time.

wickedlazy · 02/01/2016 21:21

That actually sounds lovely (Boursin). With crackers. How can threads like this make me feel so hungry.

I don't have a dirty mind, I might have a vivid imagination though.

OnlyHereForTheCamping · 02/01/2016 21:21

The loo thread is great, all those leaden Yuletide logs

MistressMerryWeather · 02/01/2016 21:22

You don't see many BFing wars these days.

When I first joined they were all the rage. MIL angst is far more popular now.

rosewithoutthorns · 02/01/2016 21:23

Why are you sniggering Cold? are you above just having a titter at what you want to post on or are you having a lemon suck?

Sparklingbrook · 02/01/2016 21:23

A bleach thread has just popped up in AIBU. Grin

wickedlazy · 02/01/2016 21:24

Have cats been mentioned yet?

MistressMerryWeather · 02/01/2016 21:25

Rose, can I ask why you are being so arsey with everyone?

And whats with all the lemon sucking, PC stuff?

It's all very 'try hard'.

MistressMerryWeather · 02/01/2016 21:26

Ohhh, thanks for the tip Sparkling.

rosewithoutthorns · 02/01/2016 21:27

Grin at Mistress.

Are you following me or just on the same threads and we tend to disagree?

Coldlightofday · 02/01/2016 21:28

I was sniggering at "meaty"

Rose are you being in character and arsey?

MistressMerryWeather · 02/01/2016 21:29

Dang it, you caught me.

I'm the Arsey Officer, it's my job to keep an close eye on you.

I have a badge and everything.

GastonsPomPomWrath · 02/01/2016 21:30

I reckon I'll post a thread about other peoples belly button fluff and how it mysteriously angers me for no reason

Now there's a subject I could get angry about. Yes husband, I'm looking at you with your picking and flicking Angry

rosewithoutthorns · 02/01/2016 21:30

Has sparkling given some sort of tip on instant message? and you're posting because of this? I don't instant message as not in some sort of girls brigade. seems you are maybe? Im happy to not think so.

rosewithoutthorns · 02/01/2016 21:31

You are obviously out to get me Mistress so just wondering on source?

DickDewy · 02/01/2016 21:32

Maybe it's because we're bored we come on here and talk about trivia.

rosewithoutthorns · 02/01/2016 21:32

If so, then stop it girls Grin

Its not great

Coldlightofday · 02/01/2016 21:32

sparkling said ^ up there that there was a bleach thread....

Keep your confrontations logical, or people will just think you're a wee fluffy pussy cat.
