It astounds me how immature some members are, not to mention how 'superior' they believe themselves to be. I mean, grow up ffs!!! It's like some of you have never left secondary school and you're still there bitching away and all.

Ta dah!

You like?

Couldn't do transition name, too many characters, so hoping sparkly personality will peek through new name.

Some days there is like no good chat to be had. Some days there is lots. I need a job I can do part-time when there is no chat, but that pays me lots and can be stopped when there is a good thread to chat on.

Who was upset at you, Trillian?

Not another astra? She can be a bit nippy on a bad day...

TrillianAstra · 28/05/2009 16:14

TBH I hadn't especially nticed you before now, sorry. But I see you now. Good name! What does it mean again?

MadameDefarge · 28/05/2009 16:17

Madame Defarge was the one in a Tale of Two Cities, the revolutionary old slapper who sits knitting at the guillotine while the aristos get their heads chopped off.

The more I think about it, the more it works for MN.

Pleased sigh!

You look lovely in your new name WWMnomore.

MadameDefarge · 28/05/2009 16:20

I feel like I've been allowed to stay up with the grown ups!

The other astra is not too upset, although I did promise her that if anyone came up with a really good alternative I would drop my astra.

No, the person who has 'Trillian', who used it once in 2005, came and was upset at me. I thought it was someone who had joined, posted one thread, and gone, but apparently it's someone long term who is still here and it has sentimental value or something. So she was all that I wanted it. And now she thinks I am mean for wanting it, and I have no clue who she is. It could be one of you for all I know.

TrillianAstra · 28/05/2009 16:23

Up late? It's 16.23 where I am!

TrillianAstra · 28/05/2009 16:24

I like new name better too.

Thank you Trillian.

We could have a Moonie-style namechanging session, and revamp Trillianastra? Not that I think you should at all, seems a bit pouty to get miffed at you using the name she had forgotten she had, but really wants to play with now someone else has it....

Sycamoretreeisvile · 28/05/2009 16:28

Madame - do you feel like you're no longer eating at the kids table lol

What a bunch of cliquey arseholes we are!

shineonyoucrazydiamond · 28/05/2009 16:29

You know this is the real title.

Sycamoretreeisvile · 28/05/2009 16:29

Oh don't madame - you're reminding me of another thread I was on a couple of days ago!

Is it that to which you are referring?

Sycamoretreeisvile · 28/05/2009 16:30

Shineon and TA - how do you know so much about name history and who has what etc?

MadameDefarge · 28/05/2009 16:30

Oh yes. Sycamore, having trouble with the heels though, very tricky to walk in. And faintly worried by odd looks sent by dodgy uncle across table.

Sycamoretreeisvile · 28/05/2009 16:30

I'm going to come back as DarkSideOfTheMoon

MadameDefarge · 28/05/2009 16:31

sadly must have missed other moonie-style MN thread...intrigued though...

shineonyoucrazydiamond · 28/05/2009 16:33

A bit pouty, maybe. I'm figuring it's someone who is pregnant or hormonal or depressed, or sensitive in some other way, so I don't want to be mean. Tis probably someone we would tell people off for being harsh towards.
