to still feel a tiny bit hacked off that I was found lacking by a certain "rival" website?

I have my suspicions what the reasons were for my rejection but won't go into them because I don't want to disclose who I am.

And yes I do know for a fact that I was vetoed, not "accidentally left out".

Cod wasn't a style guru. You just knew that if you wanted someone to prattle away with about such frivolities she would always oblige. Cod lived for 'Which shoes go with this dress' threads

Not so good for heavy political debates, though, to which her usual response was something along the lines of 'arf'.

  1. that exactly the spirit / tone martha, excellent!
  1. that is a good and fair point mp for which i have no answer....
controlfreakythecontrolfreak · 31/03/2009 22:16

  1. iain duncan smith is far from wholesome imo..... maybe strap-on = fluffybunny
Ronaldinhio · 31/03/2009 22:16

sadly but honestly I wish I'd been around when she was still able to post freely here

does that make me a sad act?

(I am style obsessed, offered as an excuse)

TheCrackFox · 31/03/2009 22:18

"fisting"=hun. It can get very confusing on Netmums sometimes.

controlfreakythecontrolfreak · 31/03/2009 22:19

i am imagining the codly one on here under one of her pseudonyms / aliases positively imploding from not being able to tell us all to feck off....

arf arf.

JaquelinehydeAllTheEggs · 31/03/2009 22:19

lou33 --- she wasn't and no one did

I avoided all her style advice like the plague, who wants to be a cod-alike.

Friendly advice I like and take often but dressing downs because I don't have the right shape dress on for this season from a person who has never met me and doesn't have a clue what I look like I can do without thanks.

I'm also fat with big tits so none of them lik me anyway

Surely strap-on is more wholesome than IDS?

DanJARMouse · 31/03/2009 22:20

Reg number 23006

quite an oldie really, but not invited (and would not have gone) to moldies.

Its old hat.

I like the variety on MN

theDreadPirateRabbit · 31/03/2009 22:21

ROFL MP for the IDS!

JaquelinehydeAllTheEggs · 31/03/2009 22:22

Obviously I meant like me not lik me. That is a different thread all together.

AitchTwoOh · 31/03/2009 22:22

please stop being mean about cod, she is a real fish with real feelings. she was a right old laugh adn i wish she was still here in all her glory.

theDreadPirateRabbit · 31/03/2009 22:23

was the 'adn' a little homage there?

theyoungvisiter · 31/03/2009 22:24

Well EVE really you should be number 2 - Justine created cod Adam from clay and then fashioned you from Adam's rib.

AitchTwoOh · 31/03/2009 22:24

it was...

controlfreakythecontrolfreak · 31/03/2009 22:24

you're right aitch. more reminiscing perhaps? agree it is a loss....

controlfreakythecontrolfreak · 31/03/2009 22:25

aagh. meant it is a loss for us / she is a loss to us.... (not that she is an it iyswim)

Eve · 31/03/2009 22:27

I shall sit here and smile at all you youngesters with indulgence..

..or get tiddly on the sweet sherry!

JaquelinehydeAllTheEggs · 31/03/2009 22:28

A great laugh she was most of the time.

Down right nasty and rude sometimes though.

MrsMattie · 31/03/2009 22:28

Who else went over to Opus Dei, then? I could never figure it out. I think I must be the coldest beeyatch on MN. I never miss anyone.

controlfreakythecontrolfreak · 31/03/2009 22:30

but mrs m you are so sweeet in the novel?

AitchTwoOh · 31/03/2009 22:32

whatever, jaqu. and now you're being downright nasty so her yin is balanced by your rude yang... good work.
