Old thread here: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/3207431-When-a-nation-s-children-marched-and-their-President-ignored-them-Trump-cont

I’m all out of inspiration for the rest of this opening post. Send the St Bernard with the brandy please.

To start it off: Mr Zuckerberg, can you define hate speech?

Lweji · 10/04/2018 22:06

Oh, dear. Mark's voice reminds me of Darth Miller.

boatyardblues · 10/04/2018 22:06

Ooh, my first poster. How exciting!

Placemat king for what's going to be a rollercoaster of the thread!
Please God, just a rollercoaster, not anything worse

Pinging for my active threads.

🐩 Gin no St Bernard or brandy but will poodle and gin do?

Lots of GinGinGin for the forthcoming months hours...

boatyardblues · 10/04/2018 22:16

Do you actually follow these threads in good faith, Disgraced, because you were actually quite rude about us on the last thread? Or at least that was my takeaway from your ‘cacophony’ remark after you came back and explained the term.

Hmm. A gin poodle will do, so long as it isn’t a yappy toy poodle. Let’s face it, a decent gin ration demands a standard poodle. Minibar bottles are not going to get us theough the coming weeks.

Checking in. Hoping this thread will be the one where Donny starts to get his comeuppance.

AcrossthePond55 · 10/04/2018 22:41

New thread title made me guffaw. I'll take my popcorn in the fallout shelter, I think.

It really does seem to be unraveling. But I keep thinking "Where's the Beef?". (That's an old US Wendy's Burgers advert reference). Lots of bits and pieces, but we NEED the tie to Scrotus. Is every one of his close cohorts willing to fall on their swords for him? What is he promising them?

I'll be glad to get my catch up with Maddox tonight. DH has Scrotus in leg irons since the Cohen raid saying "This is IT!" I think he's overly optimistic.

AcrossthePond55 · 10/04/2018 22:42

Maddow, not Maddox! Damn you autocorrect!

Lweji · 10/04/2018 22:45

Regarding the thread title, surely we've all had time to finish that bunker we started on that fateful 9th November 2016.
The popcorn must be made fresh every day. But the, ahem, vodka lasts forever.

boatyardblues · 10/04/2018 22:46

DH now greets my more excitable Trump thread updates with a wry “let me guess, it’s all kicking off?” with a head tilt. It would be gratifying to be able to say: “well, actually, it is!”

Hello and welcome Crusty. Smile

CrustyCob · 10/04/2018 23:17

Thank you for the welcome, leaning towards the fallout shelter at the moment Smile

I think I'll join Across in the bunker. Smile

Excellent lionheart - a neutral Swiss brandy hound may come in handy if does indeed all kick off.

What we definitely do not need is this wee dog going on our bunker booze run - a random google hit on the search terms ‘image dog brandy’. What a party killer!
