to love the fights on mn?

[LadyThingFishAlot]

god, i have to say i think they are so funny. there are some very clever people on here who are very quick minded.

the question i put to you is...

if everyone on mn had a fight, who would win and why?

Damn and there I was thinking you were a monkey wearing trousers. People should not destroy my illusions with rl pics.

Have to say you have a fine lookin fella family

great - I like a good row. at the risk of looking like I like stirring old shite at rather than laying new ones - whats the fruit shoot thing about?

The fruit shoot thing is still happening!?
So much for the 'clever people on here who are very quick minded.'

ooooooh hello slur - I've learned literally everything interesting I know about mumsnet from you. seen karate kid?

sorry thedevilwearsprimark still in my first week and therefore still at the information gathering stage - just looking for an executive summary not a rehash.

Stick around Pyra, we'll head over to the bike sheds in a bit

Fruit shoots are made of evil, foul-chemical-filled noxious liquid and are generally frowned upon in mn world.

Weirdly (imo) the latest debate to include them also condemned innocent smoothies as 'bad for blood sugar levels!!!' but still not as bad as fruit shoots. so. Drink them and beware.

checking MT's profile . . .

FUCKIN' HELL, MT! You are all gorgeous!

I'm going to put DD1 on my profile, because she is gorgeous like that.

Cheers Slur. I'll steal stuff for you at the corner shop for info.

Clearly fruit shoots are nasty - - wondered why I was asked to comment on them when creating a profile... as a totally fresh newbie it looked worryingly like advertising... any comments?

looking forward to being so angry I can't sleep.

Jeesh you leave MN for a few months and look what happens.
Must get onto some style threads.
What do we all think about 'Shoots'!?

oh dear thedevilwearsprimark - not remotely interested in what anyone thinks of fruit shoots - mine won't touch them on account of them being too colourful. We like bob the builder pasta shapes and pepsi. And pringles for pudding. just wondered why everyone on MN mentions them all the time as someone whos never bought one... Feel like I should know the basics....

Oh, oops, I meant the shoe shoots.
Don't give a feck about those drinky things.
Tried to be witty like all we mners are but it just didn't happen ey?

got to go to bed. why is this addictive? have i done the wrong thing ? oh dear

shoe shoots? makes no sense.

Someone tell me who Xenia is next.

Fruit shoots?

It's 4 miles to the nearest shop here, and that's attached to a petrol station!

My poor DD1, asking us to 'go across the water' and 'I wish I lived in Embra (Edinburgh)' today.

Too much for one day, IMO.

Am I jealous of those who have free acess to very cool black leather biker boots?

Am I f*ck!

Tomorrow isn't just another day, it's an £18m lotto triple rollover, BABY!

Do a search!

Let Xenia speak for herself, she does so well enough!

She's a well-spoken, professional, single mother of 5, FWIW.

Those Mega Millions are the shit, aren't they, Kerry? Even after tax.

My mom's sister won one.

She helped my dad with some joint purchases they made last week.

'EIS, come back!'

Clarify: she got a match 5, not the full whack. And over the course of her 5 marriages, has married successively richer men.

Don't I wish.

I think you are better in your ignorance of what shoe shoots are.

PMSL Expat. It is a good one of him - my favorite actually as he's all loved up in it.

But most of the time I have to stop him going out in his carpet slippers - I'm not joking! My neighbour one caught him going to the car in dressing gown, bare legs, black socks and a half mast towel round his waist. It's a sight thats haunted her ever since

i like xenia, totally unflappable, eloquent and frequently contentious..but that's what discussion is all about

and she fights the working mum corner a good antidote to the i-would-never-abandon-my-baby-in-a sweatshop-nursery-precious-moments-at-home corner

Oh yes - I was sahm for 12 years and xenia really pisses me off sometimes, but I wouldn't be without her. I love to disagree but I don't like it when people throw back cheap insults and she never does that.
