CoatZilla and the Barbour Boy- The Second Saga

[LanaKaneIsWeirdedOut]

Hey everyone!

Bloody hell, in all my years of MNing I've never had a response like this, I was really helped by loads of your replies, and loads made me giggle (Roast Potatoes!!) and loads made good points.

I'm sorry I can't reply to specific posts but seriously there's so many.

or for everyone who replied and is sticking with me.

So on to the update.....

CoatZilla, henceforth to be known as CZ, text again last night....

Here it is word for word.
mate, your obviously upset and that was never my intention. I'm sorry that we argued, I honestly didn't see the conversation going that way when I brought it up. I think it's better we let the dust settle for tonight in honesty. Probably best to have a calm conversation tomorrow evening?

My reply....
Yeah tomorrow evening much better I think

And she didn't come back last night (good!)

So she's made a mistake anyway......cos Dad was actually out last night ! So we'll all be sitting there when she comes back.

My plan is, to write a list of bullet points for tonight of things she definitely said, so I can't forget and she can't back out of it or claim she didn't say it (I also remembered another bit in the fucking row- where she went "Oh, so a fucking ghost did it?" in that tone of voice- fucking horrible)

Also to sit calmly and let her explain to my lovely Dad and DP that she thinks they might have maliciously cut her coat.

Then see what she says!

TBH unless she fucking grovels on her knees (not likely after that fucking last text- minimization or what??) I'm going to be asking her to pack her stuff.

I'm not being "spurred on by hysterical posters"

I have read all the replies, some have opened my eyes, some have been excusing, some have told me not to rock the friendship boat....overall I have taken a middle(ish) ground.....but tbh it's clear she is
a) weird/horrible enough to think that of her oldest friend and her family
b) fucking vicious in a row
c) now backtracking massively

So....thoughts???

And again for the troll hunters in the back......my username currently is always "LanaKanesomething", and I've had various other names going back years.....so bloody well report me and see what MN has to say, yeah?

Actually pretty that’s just the point.

I am sure op isn’t trolling but the thread has been played out to maximise drama.

My guess is her son has admitted to doing it...

“many of you need to address your attitude, it’s unnecessarily unkind.”

Translation: Yo! check yo self

@AndysFavouriteToy is your username a reference to Andy of the Wild/Dinosaur adventures?

I thought the fucking coat was fucking ripped and OP was so fucking distraught

@AndysFavouriteToy is your username a reference to Andy of the Wild/Dinosaur adventures? Not Toy Story?

@DuchessMustard But that’s the thing, when I first read the original thread at 2 posts it didn’t seem like one that would take off. No thread is guaranteed to get a significant amount of attention, it’s every single one of you that engage that make the thread. The OP never has any idea if their genuine concern will be one that entices a majority to get involved and have an opinion on.

This is all chance and those making accusations to the OP need to understand that she’s not demanded the attention, those engaging have made this in to a big deal, when it really isn’t.

OP asked for initial support - I would assume she’s received what she needed. Hereafter is her call, none of us are entitled to know what the future holds for her. Ha.

She will definitely update. I know it.

Oh, I think she had a fucking idea the thread might take off

@DuchessMustard
No it's not, although I wouldn't mind having a wild adventure with Andy from CBeebies while being his favourite toy 😂🥺

@atlanticblueandgreen Uh.. do you need to go get some air? Your last few comments are very OTT.

Some snippy replies here

Op said several times that she knew how people liked updates and she said that several times so either she's trying to build it up or that Pineapple (was that the username???) was the friend who has read the post and has asked her not to post anymore.

Yes, @fazakerleyjackie, some posters are being quite cutting, I feel

I think it's a safe assumption that you didnt read her last post in the first thread - the WOW HAVE I GOT AN UPDATE FOR YOU GUYS!!!! THIS ONE'S A BIGGIE, SO BIG THAT I NEED TO MAKE A NEW THREAD FOR IT!

This isn’t your weekly soap opera, it’s someone’s life.

Would that it were so Wisdomous - but it's OUR life now . . .

Heehee I think they made it up....and then her friend said "you didn't post about this on the internet did you?"

Maybe the ripped-coat-wearing friend has snapped and murdered the OP!

@dexterslockedintheshedagain
I'll get me coat!

@DuchessMustard Yes I did read every post and I don’t understand your point there? She said she would give an update because her post had been really active and people were asking. How does that prove opposite to anything I’ve said? She only responded in that way because users here made the thread trend.

...

@SchadenfiendeUnmortified Hahaha. Perhaps this is time to speak to MN about setting up a support group for those who need help moving on from threads where there’s never a final update. Something positive could come out of CoatZilla after all

Can anyone start a thread about North Face?
A popular clothing label where I live.
I guarantee three full action packed threads at least, and that no one will channel their inner Miss Trunchbull. Bring your own spuds.
