To fuck OFF.

Many examples recently of people appointing themselves thread curator and being rude, annoying and pointy finger ish to other posters who disagree with them.

It annoys me more than it should.

Yes don't use textspeak. Or say 'Pah!'. Just post normally.

Lweji · 24/06/2017 21:04

I thought I was being hysterical , some agreed, but the thread police waded in!

Hysterical doesn't have the same meaning here. It's an insult.

Can u educate me further and, pray tell, what Taat is
Thread about a thread.

SmileEachDay · 24/06/2017 21:04

TAAT is talk about another thread. Forbidden on MN.

You will find no textspeak sympathy here, wildboys.

Sparklingbrook · 24/06/2017 21:05

DH has put Big Brother on. Angry

wildbhoysmama · 24/06/2017 21:05

Why wince op? I really am confused now. Am I not allowed to enquire? Sorry if I'm being an arse.

Highalert · 24/06/2017 21:05

There's some funky dude on now. You are not missing much.Madam.

SmileEachDay · 24/06/2017 21:06

The wince was about the txtspk.

My well brought up iPhone just tried to correct that Grin

Has Liam Gallagher been on yet? The remaining BeeGee is on tomorrow. That will be sad.

Highalert · 24/06/2017 21:07

Can you not say 'pah' ?

Is that a new rule?

SmileEachDay · 24/06/2017 21:07

On his own?

How will he harmonise?

OP posts:
Highalert · 24/06/2017 21:08

It's Liam. Yeah that's more like it.

Sparklingbrook · 24/06/2017 21:09

Is 'pah' even a word? Confused I have never hear it in RL.

I don't know how the BeeGee will harmonise. Sad Ed Sheeran is closing the festival.

Fucking Ed fucking Sheeran, All day he's on the radio at work.

Lweji · 24/06/2017 21:11

Not allowed txtspk. But allowed loads of abbreviations.

So, my DS spoke to his DD, and then my DN asked his DM, my DS, about my BF, who then rang by BF.

Hint: they are all different people.

YesMadamDeputySpeaker · 24/06/2017 21:11

Thanks Smile. Yeah, I don't appear to be missing much! I may retire to bed with a bottle of wine, like a lady of leisure.

Sparklingbrook · 24/06/2017 21:11

Yuk Liam Gallagher. Does he have to pay Noel to sing this?

SmileEachDay · 24/06/2017 21:11

The thread police Navy

I've done a shit job of stamping out policing Grin

OP posts:
Highalert · 24/06/2017 21:11

Poor Bee Gee on his own. Sad

Lweji · 24/06/2017 21:12

Can't say pah? Says who?

Do you have to ask? The thread police.

Who says pah anyway?

Sparklingbrook · 24/06/2017 21:12

New songs. Oh joy. He has his maracas out.

SmileEachDay · 24/06/2017 21:12

Madam I'm watching on laptop in bed with wine.

Come round!
