To spot Zombie threads!

Have opened a couple that have included lines like "went to the cinema last night" and "while we were out with friends" and immediately checked the date.

Usually I don't and have on a couple of occasions replied and then realised the toddler OP referred to was probably leaving school soon Smile

Honestly couldn’t care less 🤷🏻‍♀️

Agreed. I often end up reading zombie threads and it takes me a while to notice.

littlebabybumm · 05/04/2020 16:29

What are zombie threads??

bridgetreilly · 05/04/2020 16:55

Hah! Yes.

@littlebabybumm Threads from months/years ago that someone randomly finds and comments on as if the conversation is still ongoing. Like suggesting possible names for a baby who must be seven years old now, or whatever.

@bridgetreilly Ahhh makes sense! Thanks

@DuckyMcDuck
If its the rocketman one I did the same and laughed at the OP but went to the last page.
Todays date update was interesting.

DuckyMcDuck · 05/04/2020 17:56

@HaudMaDug That was one of them. Just off to read the update

Yep saw one earlier and I was on it.

Usually I never notice until I've read the entire thread and hit post message Grin

What a tedious observation

DuckyMcDuck · 05/04/2020 18:41

Well it was interesting enough to make you post NewPapaGuinea

@NewPapaGuinea, have you never noticed how 1st world problems from before cv seem so much more preposterous now? You find yourself thinking really??? This is all you have to think about??? Then you check the date and it was from before 2016Grin.
