the following categories?

Celebrity 'nice' MNer

Celebrity 'naughty' MNer

Visiting 1 problem poster

Secret journo poster

Short lived poster, 'visiting' from another site and feeling like a tourist abroad, enjoyed it while it lasts but happy to go back to the home comforts

Majority MNers, well everyone else really who fill in the gaps between the top 2 groups' discussions, without anyone really noticing

and now the returning 'Zombies'

This follows on from whomovedmychocolate's thread here and I thought I would throw it to the AIBU wolves

Now you're all just being difficult. There's nothing odd about being furry. 'Tis the natural state.
We must have a FluffyBunny somewhere, surely. Or does that sort of name belong on another forum.
I can't do much about dragonbutter's lack of the soft stuff.
Shall we just have an 'Animals: Mythical or Otherwise' group.
What can we do about posters who (with the exception of one ) pretend to be married to celebrities. What to do, what to do...

StealthPolarBear · 21/07/2009 20:38

ah I know who you mean
TheDeluded

StealthPolarBear · 21/07/2009 20:38

who really is married to a celebrity?? Go on, go on??

littlelamb · 21/07/2009 20:38

That's for me to know..

nevergoogledragonbutter · 21/07/2009 20:39

i'm actually dairy.

or bodily fluid/bad breath?

MiniMarmite · 21/07/2009 20:39

there are a few marmite variants. Maybe we should get our own category

Nah, think I'll go for majority.

Geocentric · 21/07/2009 20:39

We can have a WAG category for them...
C'mon, ll, spill the beans!!!!

StealthPolarBear · 21/07/2009 20:39

So you want to be in the "bodily fluid / bad breath" group?
Think you may be alone

Geocentric · 21/07/2009 20:40

For the Mrs Celebs I mean.

springlamb · 21/07/2009 20:41

And what about those posters who just really FLIP OUT and go bonkers at people. I really don't think people should be flipping out until the thread has at least ten posts. It's really scary.
Right, anyway, goodnight, I've changed all the clocks to 10pm so that the dc think they've been allowed to stay up late in the school hols, so I'm doing putting to bed.

nevergoogledragonbutter · 21/07/2009 20:43

yes, i think it will be a lonely group, but i'll probably get to be captain.

differentID · 21/07/2009 20:43

Martini category? what is that?

StealthPolarBear · 21/07/2009 20:44

I'll join you with my soggy breastpads in September
Anyone else??

littlelamb · 21/07/2009 20:44

ah go on then But I demand immediate entry into upper echelons of MN for divulging this information

StealthPolarBear · 21/07/2009 20:45

Thanks ll - don't remember that, will have to watch it again

shoshe · 21/07/2009 20:57

Think I would be in the Majority although us Cm's do have our own category, [preens and adjusts badge]

What about the Always BU category

Jux · 21/07/2009 20:58

Dragonbutter, we're going into Exeter on Friday. Is your mosaic still there?

shoshe · 21/07/2009 21:01

Or what about the Say It As It Is MNners, Would think Custdy and Kerry would be prefects in that group {grin]

nevergoogledragonbutter · 21/07/2009 21:02

Still there!
I think the exhibition runs until 29th July. It is likely my mosaic will stay in the gallery afterwards also.

Partly because i've moved to scotland, partly because the gallery are confident it will sell eventually.

MIAonline · 21/07/2009 21:03

Good point shoshe, yes some of you do have your own category.

OP posts:
MIAonline · 21/07/2009 21:06

Wouldn't you agree though shoshe, that there are categories that already fit the bill for them?

'Saying it as it', would probably aid entry into a couple of those categories, if done often enough

OP posts:
shoshe · 21/07/2009 21:08

You are prbably right MIA

PlumpRumpSoggyBaps · 21/07/2009 21:30

I want my own category but I can't think of a name for it.

Guess I'll just have to be a Majority Mnetter.

Sigh.

PlumpRumpSoggyBaps · 21/07/2009 21:32

Ooh- what about Those Whose Names Are Too Long For People To Bother Typing But There Isn't A Universal Way Of Shortening It?

Or something more catchy, maybe.....

Geocentric · 21/07/2009 21:34

Hmmm, Long Named MNers...

NOT to be confused with Long Winded MNers!
