i don't see the problem, they would be very well trained, they hardly kill anyone each year, cars kill more people than lions and crocdiles put together, and the children could take them for a walk on the lead or if the parents had a problem with it, i could put the lion and the crocdile behind the baby gate. anyone who disagrees is hysterical, neurotic, and ill informed.

AIBU?

I did not say you are not a nice person, as none of us are saint we all do things that are not nice. I pretended to be asleep this morning so I did not have to do the housework.

purepurple · 28/02/2009 13:08

and I have used up my housework time trawling the net to find people to talk to that i don't know
I just meant that who cares about the ethos of musnet?
Well, you do, but , then each to their own, I suppose

"I'm just not like all the other boys" lol

what a thriller of a question

I'm still not dressed Twinset! I keep thinking I ought to do something. I've sent DH to get the food needed for the weekend, DD has changed the sheets on her bed and tidied her room, and I've done nothing!

PP, I'm sure you're a nice person too, but there is something about not deliberating starting a thread to be mean about someone. Especially since the CM was not starting a fight or being unreasonable. She is such a nice poster and a very popular poster too, so I just think it was uncalled for.

Another day and another poster, I may feel totally different.

twinsetandpearls · 28/02/2009 13:13

I care about the ethos of mumsnet of it stops people upsetting each other. Hopefully in most cases we ca do that ourselves though.

purepurple · 28/02/2009 13:14

I have to admit I haven't even seen the other thread

hangs head in shame

I am just sooooo bored
I have got loads of STUFF to do and no motivation

starting a bichfeist was not intentional

MaureenMLove · 28/02/2009 13:17

So, what have you got to do PP? I have lots to do, but like you, really can't be arsed!

We really ought to take our chat elsewhere though, otherwise we will just keep bumping this one! Start a thread and I will join you for a short while. DH is due back very soon, with food!

twinsetandpearls · 28/02/2009 13:18

Maureen I am in my pyjamas too.

I can see however purple that i you had not seen the other thread you would think this one was funny.

Purple I have 10 reports to write today and need to make a start on marking 150 exam papers which have four essays on each, oh and another 15 a level essays. I so need to get off here.

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 28/02/2009 13:18

can I join in mo? haven't chatted to you in ages.

twinsetandpearls · 28/02/2009 13:20

10 reports I wish, more like 100.

purepurple · 28/02/2009 13:21
