AIBU to be annoyed when I make a really good point on a thread

and then it's ignored, and either I have to repeat it, or then someone else comes and makes exactly the same point and everyone goes "oh yes, that's quite clever" "what a good and inciteful point" and so on. Maybe I should just type in caps?
So, AIBU?

Mon dieu, what is 'appening with all zees religion? Can not an alluring young lady enjoy the innocent, ahem, pleasures of social intercourse wizout zee henious aspersions of ugly old ladeez, clearly motivated by jealousy of our loveliness?

Call for my barouche! I will tarry 'ere no longer, I seek a better class of person to, um, mingle with...

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 22/12/2009 13:19

Mais oui, Mam'zelle, Je suis tres heureuse de crier pour le barouche de toi.

Tu es vraiment un tres mal influence dans les halles.

MadameDefarge · 22/12/2009 13:35

Moi? tu rigole! C'etait deja un espace pourri....

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 22/12/2009 13:37

Bouf! Mange un escargot et une jambe de grenouille et ferme ta bouche.

MadameDefarge · 22/12/2009 14:03

Bah, la jalousie! c'est partout! tu devrait avoir honte de toi meme....

Ah! I espy the dark and saturnine countenance of the Count Slobadovavich as he stumbles through the gothic arched entryway...lost in the snow on hees way to visit ze Grand Duchess Sofia Alexandrina Popyourclogsof at ze winter palace...

'is fur-swathed troika awaits...and not a snail in sight...caviar tins tumble from zee capacious pockets of hees greatcoat, along with magnums of the finest Georgian champagne....

Let us revive zeez flagging revels with quelque exotic refreshments, et peut-etre a high-flown philosophical debate about alchemy...c'est attirante, non?

Ugly? Moi?

Right that's it

Dear MumsnetAnonymous,

I used just to lurk quietly at the margins of your dangerous territory.

Then, one day, I found myself lured in by the bright lights and sparkly speak of this thread.

Now I find it impossible NOT to post meaningless comments on both this thread and others. AND to use angle brackets while I'm doing so!

I have even found myself posting in Pedants' Corner.

Is there any hope for me?

I blame Hully!

But I agree with Bran...

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 22/12/2009 20:50

Oh you've had your chips all right love.

Now, get in that their barouche and take the other French bit with you.

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 22/12/2009 20:51

Oooo Tis verily such good japes to speak demotic.

MadameDefarge · 22/12/2009 22:54

Bien, I depart, taking my caviar,champagne and sexy count with me....

CaptainDarcyCasuabonHenchard · 22/12/2009 23:57

Mimi, come back! Your tiny hand is frozen ...

French Fancy, eh? Are you one of Mr Kipling's cupcakes? I never could stand his poetry, but you seem like a fine looking woman to me.

(Kicks Mr Rochester under the chaise longue.)

Can you twirl my moustache for me?

CaptainDarcyCasuabonHenchard · 23/12/2009 00:08

You French mam'selles certainly know how to put a stripe into a chap's regimentals.

Dash it! That infernal Mother Flaphappy is hoving into view...

Nothing for it but an organised retreat.

(Possibly to ponder why 2 of my 3 names are so damned unromantic.)

Jamieandhismagictorch · 23/12/2009 07:02

once again - I have not read all the thread, but

Bonjourrrrrrrrrr !!!!

pagwatch · 23/12/2009 08:24

Princess, I know.
There should be a support group.

OOh. I have a french surname. I am suddenly very desirable on this thread.I should rule this thread. Thread should be where I live.

[dullard, can't speak the lingo emoticon]

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 23/12/2009 09:29

Tra- lala -la la la la la. Lalalalala la la la. Deck the halls with boughs of holly la la.

Oh Christmas is coming! Tra la la.

Tis time for forgiveness and reconciliation
and righteous behaviour and not attempting to steal other people's beaus. I have heard tell of a new and exciting relegion hailing from across yonder pond - tis Mormonismosity and verily one may wed several spouses.

Oh, here is dear Father Brown retuned at last, a little weary and red eyed and truly is breath is the very devil , but in time nonetheless.

Quick, Father, marry us in haste and at once!

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 23/12/2009 09:30

(Rather like my typing)

SerenityNowAKABleh · 23/12/2009 09:30

I believe, I started this thread (not the major French tangents though), hence I should be ruling this thread. But I fear it's an anarchy.

Bloody Nora, Hully is on a supermarche sweep style beau grab....

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 23/12/2009 09:32

Oh OP! How lovely of you to drop by. Would you care to be a witness to my extensive nuptials?

SerenityNowAKABleh · 23/12/2009 09:33

Oh yes, and if someone could provide a brief summary of what has happened, that would be awesome. I do fear the worst though. The little I've read is [very funny] lunacy

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 23/12/2009 09:34

Seeing as you have snogged every single person on every single board AND had your nipples grappled with, I hardly think you are in any position to cast eggs, Madame.

Out of my way! I will be married to them all and spend the day in lingerie and langorousness.

pagwatch · 23/12/2009 09:35

my eyes!
Quelle horror.
C'est une orgy avec le Hully sur la chaise et les hommes formidable .
La Plume de ma tante!
mais oui, mange tout

Serneity. I applaude you.
Best op to last posting I have ever seen.

Do you think you were being unreasobnable

pagwatch · 23/12/2009 09:37

Tis true Hully.

I am just desperately trying to make you jealous.
Plus Vinny has tinsel laden nipples that seem to call as if a siren

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 23/12/2009 09:39

It's a scourging for you, Madame. And several hundred prayers. Off to the chapel with you.
