open and boil, usually

it's like being told "whatever you do, DON'T look down"

Flamesparrow · 14/10/2007 21:50

i open and boil

Hulababy · 14/10/2007 21:51

Oh yes, open and then fume...and get drawn in...and regret it...amd think "next time I won't look"...and then I do...and the cycle goes on!

there is one but I am avoiding it like the plague.
On any given day there is bound to be one. you know you will let rip if you go in.
is it really worth the effort?

just go on it and kick ass, 2shoes

bookwormmum · 14/10/2007 21:57

I try to avoid them as I'll probably wade in and either
a) get flamed myself
b) ignored.

Not quite sure which is worse .

Tortington · 14/10/2007 21:57

Open thread.

Type out rant.

Shout "You're all fuckers!" (hiss if in office)

Delete message.

Tortington · 14/10/2007 22:04

open and boil but some are just too ridiculas to bother with

mamazon · 14/10/2007 22:07

i can only resist a short while but then i open them and regret it as soon as i have.

WanderingTrolley · 14/10/2007 22:09

Change name.

Post hysterical shriekings of a madwoman.

Don't bother to preview.

Kick the cat for good measure.

Yes, type and delete, that's the way to go.

onlyjoking9329 · 14/10/2007 22:11

life is too short for me to give too much headroom to stuff that will make me cross/piss me off

2shoescreepingthroughblood · 14/10/2007 22:17

tbh it is normally the "I am perfect" so why is everyone else not just like me threads that get me.
Lots of people posting....oh I would never do that.
Think they should go off and polish their halos

OP posts:
Tortington · 14/10/2007 22:18

quiches are everywhere - beware.

stationarybasket isn't me!

expatinscotland · 14/10/2007 22:18
