No Janet you can’t OWN running

[Janetsadick]

It’s not “your” hobby.

Nobody is stealing your thunder by taking up running.

If you faux roll your eyes and mention it again I’m going to throw a fucking stapler at your head

AIBU?

Ahh thank you soup, I think I must have missed a few pages! Manet it is.

I own football. I don't like football but I'm fed up of men having it.

Oh and to the PPS who Janeted Peru, sorry, it's already gone. My work Janet Janeted ALL of South America last year. The whole continent. Especially the hard to reach parts. I can put you in touch with her if you have any questions? 😂

I own posts about "missing cod" so you can all just stop.

Who's COD? And when did he go missing.

Let's start the #huntforCod

has Janet killed the OP? Maybe run her over?

Oh my goodness is the Good Place robot really called Janet - wow the name Janet really does Janet being a Janet. The Robot Janet doesn't even need to run though - it just appears.

DM had a colleague with the same name as her - not Janet - and once someone pointed out they were both wearing grey. "Oh no," trilled Namesake Not-Janet, "I'm wearing elephant." (The colour, not elephant skin, which would be gross.)

She had other ishoos as well: she had been to the same working-class London primary school as my DF, but was vair posh.

I own Banff.

Was temping at a place when I'd just got back from a year out working in Banff.

Fucking CEO thought he knew his shit because he'd been on a two week tour of the Canadian Rockies. I soon set him straight.

"I read on here someone was claiming that if the fire alarm is going off at work and a person's blocking the exit or not exiting quick enough, you can punch them out."

Fuck I can't stop laughing 😂😂😂😂😂

ginger - no no, you can't possibly own the accidentally found Salvador Dali exhibition in Venice unless you were there before 1992 - when I found it first. Obviously! Mine.

I've just realised I am the Gin Janet.

I am no spring chicken and I've been drinking gin as my main/only drink since I was barely old enough to vote. I have had more than enough years wandering alone in the Fashionable Drinks wilderness, being viewed with a mix of pity and suspicion for DECADES and you lot come in here and start spouting off about small batch this, and rosemary infused that.

Just shut up. I OWN GIN. I've done my time and earned my stripes the hard way, when there was only Gordons and Beefeater and Schweppes to choose from, but I never wavered.

I feel I deserve to own gin and revel in all the choice available now and all you upstarts who'll have moved onto The Next Big Thing in a year or two can get to fuck.

I feel some people who travel often can cone across as smug and feel they are more cultured than others.

Yeah, the Gap yah types. I’ve travelled a lot and I hope I’m not a twat. However, I OWN mosquito bites.

Oldlaundbooth, I refer you to my previous post, you are mistaken. I own all of Canada. Especially Banff.

I can't believe Janet Ellis is a Janet... Oh she is. She Janets being compassionate and being the greatest mother of all time.

I owned cider in a similar fashion.

I am from a cider producing area and grew up buying it from farms etc.

Then suddenly it became fashionable. At that time I worked in an office. Two women were discussing a ‘new’ cider, Bulmers. I pointed out that Bulmers had been around for decades and that it wasn’t new. They wouldn’t listen.
I Janeted.

@ThumbWitchesAbroad I will have to check my photos but I think it was 1991 so I TOTALLY OWN IT! (Wonder if we were there at the same time?!?!)

I realised recently I own the musician, Frank Turner, even though I don't go to his gigs any more.

I used to see him regularly before he was very famous. Now every fucker on Facebook is at it.

ringle if you don't want the tickets I'll have them. My 13 year old dd Janets Hamilton 😂

I've loved this thread. It made me look back at certain past interactions and think, " holy fuck, they were totally janetting me!"
And also made me realise I'm definitely guilty of limiting my pursuits in anticipation of presumed Janet-like behaviour. Like, when my work colleague was SO in to running, she owned race for life, everyone was like "Janet is so good with her running, isn't she?" and "Janet runs, why don't you ask her about xyz?"
I half thought about taking up running as a new years resolution once, but then the thought of all the tips and advice and chats about what trainers and which route and how stretching. I just couldn't be bothered. So I let her have running. And now I'm fat. If only I'd read this thread then. stares wistfully in to the middle distance

My sil is the Janet of having THE WORST YEAR EVER. No one's year has been as bad as hers, although (other than a minor routine operation with zero complications) I can't put my finger on any concrete reason. She also is the Janet of needing a holiday. She hasn't had a holiday this year and it's been THE WORST YEAR EVER. I politely reminded her about her long weekend in Paris, but that doesn't count apparently. Because it's just France, and just for 4 days, in a really bland luxury hotel with very partial views of the distinctly average Eiffel Tower. Worst year ever.

My Janet at work owns the colour grey. She invented it and was using it long before the pesky French came along and tried to add their name to the colour. Or elephants for that matter. You can use it to decorate or buy some "pieces" in grey, and she will smile benevolently and will advise you that what you are doing sounds "sweet". But you are just a leaseholder. Janet owns the lease.

And now I own posting things twice by accident.
