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?

I think we've seen those crocodile tears before, Madame. It won't wash. You will have to rent your breast.

pagwatch · 23/12/2009 09:49

dammit.

SerenityNowAKABleh · 23/12/2009 10:00

Thank you Pag!
And, I would also like to thank everyone else that has made this possible. Hully, bran, Madame Defarge - thank you for taking my thread starting as a little rant about being ignored on a thread to a level of MN specialness that cannot be matched. I would like to thank the people who invented t'internet, so such magic could happen. I would like to thank Geraldine, Helen, and all the other people over at MNHQ who make this whole thing possible. I would like to thank my parents, for raising me and I would like to thank sniff our pet cats who sadly did not live to see this day

Oh, and I now think I was being a bit unreasonable, but I was annoyed.

Me rather think she fits right in. Such promising histrionics!

I don't know if anyone could quite manage a summary - suffice it to say that I'm right and good and they're all a bit horrid (except the lovely Gibbon).

Now, Father! The ceremony!

catastrojb · 23/12/2009 10:24

no-one's ever name-checked or replied to me

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 23/12/2009 10:39

Who is this little weeping creature curled in a corner? I don't believe we have had the pleasure? But all are welcome in these halls. Pray don a floral wreath and join the imminent nuptials.

catastrojb · 23/12/2009 10:45

nice to meet you Hully - I have lurked for a while and am planning on starting up the Hully Fan-Club. Loving your posts!

Ooh, never worn a floral wreath before. What does one wear it with? LBD? Nothing?

HowTheGibbonStoleChristmas · 23/12/2009 10:50

I flounced an no bugger missed me?

Crushed is the word I think that sums up my feelings best.

Fine. I shall go quietly this time, not even a tiny dance of despair.

SerenityNowAKABleh · 23/12/2009 10:51

Nooooooooo! Gibbon! Don't go! Please don't flounce [from this thread].

Ah sweet serenity, how I wish you had been here to stop me before....before I was crushed and broken

tethersjinglebellend · 23/12/2009 11:08

Did anyone miss me?

HowTheGibbonStoleChristmas · 23/12/2009 11:10

I did tethers!

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 23/12/2009 11:15

Now pull yourselves together. Take these < throws out flouncy frilled bridesmaids' dresses left and right>

Quick, attire yourselves! There is no time to waste.

We'll hear your excuses later.

Come come now, you know I cannot do without you. Would you like one of my grooms?

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 23/12/2009 11:16

Catas - We've had enough of that sauce from the French. Attire yourself speedily and modestly, Missy.

tethersjinglebellend · 23/12/2009 11:21
HowTheGibbonStoleChristmas · 23/12/2009 11:25

If that french bint that called me ugly turns up I shall not be responsible for my actions.

Oh dear Hully of course I will! (which one are you to be wed to by the way?)

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 23/12/2009 11:29

Gibbon, are you not following altogeher? I am wedding all of them as I have embraced Mormonismosity. But I am prepared to allot you one. Do any catch your eye?

Yes, we must all stand together against the Froggy Menace. Duh duh duh duh duh duh. The Dunkirk Spirit unfurls about the hall.

Catas - would you help Tether from the floor? She is unaccustomed to bloomers.

HowTheGibbonStoleChristmas · 23/12/2009 11:40

Well I did hear you say that Hully dear but I was sure it was the stirrup cup talking!

You really mean to to marry them all?

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 23/12/2009 11:53

Yes. . Unless you want one?

SerenityNowAKABleh · 23/12/2009 11:54

What?! Who is all getting married, and will there be cake? Or, um, Est ce qui epouse? Avez la gateau?

OP posts:
tethersjinglebellend · 23/12/2009 11:59

I'll split one with you, gibbon

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 23/12/2009 12:01

Serenity, would you care to be a flower girl? Or can you sing at all? I feel an Ave Maria would be fitting, although we may well change it to Ave Hully. (Head spins with crazed power mad delusions)

Who would you like to split, gels?

SerenityNowAKABleh · 23/12/2009 12:04

Oh Hully, you have made me the happiest girl ever! I wouldn't recommend having me singing. All recent singing experience has been karaoke. And it's not pretty.

OP posts:
HowTheGibbonStoleChristmas · 23/12/2009 12:54

Which one shall we have tethers?
