Judge what was his name

the Narnia thread

spring to mind immediately

Periodically things happen on here and everybody explodes

It will pass, it will pass
(and yes I know that MN is much bigger now, but still)

and of course SWMNBN

CitizenCarmenere · 11/09/2007 23:37

It will yes, thankfully.

harpsichordcarrier · 11/09/2007 23:38

oh god yes of course it will
it is like yesterday's chip paper
only even more emphemeral (sp?)

TolpuddlapinMartyr · 11/09/2007 23:40

Oh yes. It's only newbies (even more newbie than me!) saying "argh, it's the END OF MN!"

Direct them all here

Just wish it would pass quicker - I'm bored, I want a fun thread to read.

louii · 11/09/2007 23:45

Does anyone actually care??

Alambil · 11/09/2007 23:57

am I being completely dense - I don't seem to have found the offending articles

incidentally - what was the Narnia thread about?! (don't say Narnia - why did it get heated?)

VladimireIlychUlyanovPan · 12/09/2007 00:02

'Twill be trounced by the revolution, comrades!!

NappiesGermaineGreerGalore · 12/09/2007 00:23

id quite like some clever witty fun stuff back really. on thew whole.

the strike thread was pretty amusing... but still.

FairyOnTheChristmasTree · 12/09/2007 00:24

Why, what happened?

[nosey]

NappiesGermaineGreerGalore · 12/09/2007 00:29

lol fairy. ignorance is bliss eh?

SueBaroo · 12/09/2007 00:46

Was that the legendary thread where the minions of the White Witch tried to stage a rebellion against the High King Peter and make Turkish Delight the national Narnian dish?

KeirHardAitch · 12/09/2007 01:00

oh yes. i don't think anyone's predicting the end of MN apart from one utterly bonkers newbie.

minorityrules · 12/09/2007 01:10

How long do you have to be here to not be a newbie?

expatinscotland · 12/09/2007 01:11

YANBU

emakana, you have been here a while, as I have.

Ebbs and tides. This is just another one, as you well know.

expatinscotland · 12/09/2007 01:12

maybe I should start a new thread. Would 'kiltman' be a good romantic hero for my next Mills and Boon load of tripe?

KeirHardAitch · 12/09/2007 01:12

it's a state of mind, MR. and i was not referring to you, by the way. i think you can guess who i meant.

expatinscotland · 12/09/2007 01:13

It is indeed, MR. A state of mind entirely.

KeirHardAitch · 12/09/2007 01:14

(course what's grim about this one is that there actually isn't an end in sight. more grim for the people Actually Involved, though...)

WaldenYapp · 12/09/2007 01:17

But this whole furore is made up of about 30 posters IIRC. All on the same threads.

expatinscotland · 12/09/2007 01:17

No doubt, Aitch. And I was the first one to criticise some of their actions.

Big difference between that and what's going on just now.

But hey, this too shall pass.

KeirHardAitch · 12/09/2007 01:20

sooner the better, expat.

expatinscotland · 12/09/2007 01:22

Oh, it's nothing that unusual, Aitch.

FWIW, I think the combo of Danish cartoon/Israel: When will the West do something was far more decisive.

expatinscotland · 12/09/2007 01:23

divisive, even.

And even the Jade Goody threads.

Red rug, anyone?
