to wonder why another MNer would randomly send me a CAT message asking me to indulge in slagging off other threads?

Never heard of this MNer before (but then I have only been around here for a year and regularly posting for about 6 months). Claims to be posting under a new name but was previously someone else on here - whose name I have seen on threads - and asks me to indulge in some slagging off of threads. Ignored message and then find myself being referred to as "poncetastic" on a thread I posted. Can accept the accusation....probably am a bit poncetastic at times....but all seems very strange "coincidence".

AIBU to wonder question posted in title of thread?

AIBU to think this is pathetic behaviour?

AIBU to think that this kind of trolling etc happens all too often on MN?

(am trying to steer clear of starting a thread about a thread issues here ).

slyandgobbo · 23/07/2009 14:44

I'm going to CAT you all and try to send you cakes. And then you will all be spooked and feed them to your dogs and hamsters.

cornsillk · 23/07/2009 14:44

How many Brians would that be...

sherby · 23/07/2009 14:44

I have been CATED about a breast pump

I have been CATED about running clothes (about 4 mths after a running clothes thread)

I have CATED everyone on this thread to bitch about the person above you on the thread (just so nobody feels left out)

pagwatch · 23/07/2009 14:45

at spooky cakes and racking brians.

It does feel like it has been a long day...

morningpaper · 23/07/2009 14:45

I love racking Brian

AitchTwoOh · 23/07/2009 14:46

i did consider an apostrophe.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 23/07/2009 14:47

sherby

Ooh. You are above me. What did you say?

kathyis6incheshigh · 23/07/2009 14:49

give it to the next woman you find sheltering under your porch?

So would this be the thread to ask whether you'd all recommend Spanx knickers for under a ballgown?

morningpaper · 23/07/2009 15:19

The trouble is that if you get REALLY drunk then you will wet yourself before you manage to get your knickers off

DebiNewberry · 23/07/2009 15:23

(if really REALLY drunk, hoik to side> am blushing.

mollyroger · 23/07/2009 15:31

Setsquare ''I wear crocs''- if you are wh I think you are then, that is a fucking lie!

myredcardigan · 23/07/2009 15:31

Yeah, I did consider that. I think the Trinny and Suzzanah ones have a slit Or maybe that's another make.

I was wondering how smooth the line is and do they roll. I'm not that big (12) but do have a bit of a mummy tummy. Maybe I'll start a style thread but seems a bit racey over there at the mo!

RedLollyYellowLolly · 23/07/2009 15:47

Yeah MRC. Post it in AIBU, 'tis much safer there at the moment

LyraSilvertongue · 23/07/2009 15:51

Urgh, don't start on us again Cod.

GetOrfMoiLand · 23/07/2009 16:12

Yes, but setsquare did admit earlier up the thread to owning a beige Per Una cord coat, so to be honest it's not beyond the realms of reality to assume she has some crocs hidden away as well.

morningpaper - aren't you just supposed to wee out of the split in the crotch of them spanx pants? That's what I thought it was there for

KingRolo · 23/07/2009 17:00

Just because someone owns a Per Una jacket does not mean they also own Crocs.

There are some limits.

sherby · 23/07/2009 17:14

I think a per una jacket is a gateway item

It can only get worse after that

Before you know it your dressed in one of those shiny wolf tshirts and trackie bottoms 2 inches too short
