AIBU?

NC (name changed as I don't want this to be outing)

A rhythmless man at church has said he wants to put on a concert to raise some money for shoeless orphans. We shall call him A.

A said to B that they have money to help. B said that the last concert raised some issues but would support them none the less.

C said she didn't want to be forgotten.

Who is BU?

I think the vicar had better order some more wine for Sunday's service.

Well, don't let anyone throw it at the wall or you might drown a wasp.

@oddcat. Go away and play with your chickens elsewhere. No on needs your unhelpful comments. Hinderence.

So A is married to B. They married young and know drummers. A wants a concert, B said not a good idea,, last drummer concert wasn’t good, but ok. C said don’t forget about me.

Does C want to do some drumming?

I think people are taking the piss now and it's not fair on the Op , orphans , A,B,C or bats.

nowayishere · 28/08/2018 21:43

@oddcat, thank you. I accept that.

Which one snapped and farted?

And then everybody clapped.

How did oddcat ‘s chickens get on to the thread? Naughty chickens.

nowayishere · 28/08/2018 21:46

@claw, drumming really isn't a good idea after last time but thanks for the suggestion. C usually wants a solo but also can't be bothered to turn up to many rehearsals. She is good, though.

And that bat turned out to be Albert Einstein

Oddcat · 28/08/2018 21:47

Namechange I didn't mention chickens but for the sake of good relations didn't want to point it out.

pinkgirl1234 · 28/08/2018 21:48

There are no bat's in our church.

Eeeek! That apostrophe has made me go batty! No wonder the poor wee orphans have no shoes. Sad

mikeTV · 28/08/2018 21:48

I understand. Although I though it was G who didn't want to be forgotten, E is busy elsewhere and C was the only one who could hold a tune. I think B has too much on to be dealing with this right now.

Namechangeforthiscancershit · 28/08/2018 21:49

oddcat you didn’t need to mention the chickens, we all already know about your chickens.

GinIsIn · 28/08/2018 21:49

So is C the chickens, then?

pinkgirl1234 · 28/08/2018 21:49

I think people are taking the piss now

Surely not. Shame on them.

Oddcat · 28/08/2018 21:49

It's a tricky one for sure Op

Claw001 · 28/08/2018 21:49

I’m not sure what I suggested! Just trying to clarify!

What is C good at?

nowayishere · 28/08/2018 21:50

Calm down pinkgirl typo's sometimes happen.

Chickens are notorious gloryhunters.

olderthanyouthink · 28/08/2018 21:51

If A and B are married then how they spend the money is up to them, surely? C needs to but out. Is C the OW?

Oddcat · 28/08/2018 21:51

What is C good at?

Drumming and sweeping up bat poo if I remember correctly

CanYouHearThat · 28/08/2018 21:51

Well, i agree with you OP, i had a similar situation with my MIL once.

GinIsIn · 28/08/2018 21:52

Chickens are notorious gloryhunters

Hence their preoccupation with coming first, one presumes.....

pinkgirl1234 · 28/08/2018 21:52

You're right. I'll try to calm down.

And breathe...
