Banning these two words.

Is it only me or does anyone else get irritated when people mention "Fruit Shoots" as if they will get MN browny points.

Pamelat, why are pre-pached fruit bad? You mean raisins are bad? In what other way do you buy them?

Sounds like something from the Famous Five books.

I hate the cliquey in-jokes too. I refuse to become an internet sheep

and hate the dont feed the troll picture that bounces about.just trying too hard

Gateau - was tongue in cheek thinking that someone would tell me to buy loose fruit from my local shop and nothing pre packed at a big nasty supermarket.

Ah right. Was flummoxed, thinking people really do need to chill out a bit more.

mrshammond I was about to take away your browny points but since you have appologised you can have them back.

By the way I am so not in I dont get the Bat thingy.

I don't get the Bat thing either. Someone explain

No! It's not that you're not in, you weren't here when it was "created" so just don't know about it.

I think this is how it went ... it was a game one day where you had to get someone to click on a link you had posted. You were meant to make them think it was a genuine link to something (eg what do you think of this dress for a wedding) but instead of linking to a dress/whatever it linked to a picture of the bat, so you'd been had.

sounds hilarious

Are you the 'annoyingdevil' from Balls of Steel?

Does this help?

bahhhhhhhhh you got me. ooh ooh am I now 'in'?
pmsl

baileys

well suppose someone had to do bat in a post modern ironic way still hate it though

I still dont get the "bat thing" despite the odd looking picture........my wonderful ds loves bats and has lots come on spill.......... someone explain the joke in words rather than pictures please!

oh what a wag someone googled MN name and this was what came up,used it as wee "in" joke

then for ages it popped up.oh how we laughed

newbieshate that term.usually used as quasi-insult or put down.o'er don't get strangers round these parts

hurried dragging off pentagon off wall.hide the goat

as i see it everyone is a poster who contributes.no assigned designation.a poster - end of

newbie and oldie are divisive value laden terms

Blimey. I have NO idea what's going on! I'm clearly very 'out' and I don't get a thing. Booooo. I did have a pot noodle though last week (going back to the f s thingy )- I called it a pregnancy craving. It was delicious. Please don't tell anyone

found in chat section,generally quite informal.unfortunately some folk singled them out for piss taking.kind of like sanctuary/tea room threads

probably some kind of cliquey challenge,see if they can be provoked yada yadda

No sausagenmash you can have your Pot Noodle (if you must) because you are not throwing it in to be cool.

Oh I see . Duh.

Funny, the word scuttler. Made me think of the cuttle fish thingy that used to live in my Nan's budgie cage.
