To be pissed off when I contribute to a thread that has gone or subsequently goes, tits up...

And someone comes along and says "you're all bitches" "you're all horrible" "You're all x, y, z"

When actually I have not been a bitch (sometimes neither has anyone / a lot of people but this is about me me me ), I've actually posted something supportive / factual / just in response but not taking the piss or anything, even if I don't agree with OP.

I want them to put "All of you except heqet"

hurumph.

I'm not unreasonable, am I?

Now I actually want a hot buttered crumpet, but have no way of getting one wail

Umami · 19/02/2010 09:51

Completely unrelated to the thread in any way at all, but in a chirpy mood, so spreading the love

SarfEasticated · 19/02/2010 09:56

good god jamieandhismagictorch how will I ever hold my head up in Waitrose again! Not sure how that apostrophe got there, must have been while I was licking dripping off a threadbare flannel.

Don't worry catastrojb I often kill threads too, like to think it is because I have managed to make such a fantastic point that others don't need to add anything else. If I ever see you hanging in future, I will swoop in and post under you.

Jamieandhismagictorch · 19/02/2010 09:59

Umami (still here) That did make me smile. Reminds me of University - my boyfriend (now DH) played it all the time .......

you were about 10, right ?

Umami · 19/02/2010 10:07

I may well have been 10 James But it was still a Uni staple 10 yrs ago!

Always makes me smile too. I'd like to dedicate that song to GibbonInARibbon! Also, someone keeps moving my chair.

Jamieandhismagictorch · 19/02/2010 10:07

sorry, that came out patronising-sounding. Meant that I am OLD

Umami · 19/02/2010 10:11

I know!

(I meant 'I probably was 10, but don't know when it actually came out' rather than 'Yeah well, I may have been 10, but, y'know, your mama'. Or something).

MustyOdour · 19/02/2010 10:14

Havent read all thread but isn't it the case that online chats are in many cases just like RL chats where NO ONE is actually listening/reading, we're all just waiting to jump in and shove in our 2 penny worth

FWIW I make hilarious/relevant/insightful comments all the live long day.

never so much as a rich tea buiscuit in my direction...

SarfEasticated · 19/02/2010 10:18

Yes Musty Odour good point but back to what I was saying which was REALLY interesting...

Umami · 19/02/2010 10:19
MustyOdour · 19/02/2010 10:20

lol

its JUST like real life!

Umami · 19/02/2010 10:22

Found them in biscuit barrel

nickelbabe · 19/02/2010 10:29

aw, Musty, I was going to say i hadn't read the whole thread!

now, i don't get annoyed at anyone other than myself, because i hate joining a thread late and looking like i'm gate-crashing or something!

No thanks, I don't want a hot buttered crumpet, because i had a fried egg cob for breakfast [stuffed full]

but i think it's a great time to reiterate the info from that thread yesterday where someone posted a link to an article about butter not being bad for you (can't find the link without losing all of this that i've just typed) That's what i've been saying for years!
(and yes, noone ever listens to me either)

now i'm going off to look at other threads so that i can become one of those annoying people who post and then never appear again on that thread.

Ivykaty44 · 19/02/2010 10:29

you are all bitches except everyone named this thread

but the person that comes along and says you are all bitches - well does that include the OP?

tethersend · 19/02/2010 10:30

Well, someone on the dog thread just called me an 'annoying twat'

I've never been so... Oh!

Umami · 19/02/2010 10:32

There's no call for that Tether! Here, have a biscuit, They're made with butter y'know.

SerenityNowakaBleh · 19/02/2010 10:33

Ah, the dog thread. I love those. You always get the crazy dog lovers coming on and saying how wonderful dogs are, how they would never hurt anyone, how everyone should love dogs blah blah blah.

If it helps tether - I'm totally with you on the boat thing. If it could be done, I'd even be willing to start rounding up dogs to be sent off.

Ivykaty44 · 19/02/2010 10:34

I thought your elequant posts on the doggy thread were wonderful, so they read in braile this annoying twat person caller?

Umami · 19/02/2010 10:37

Have the cats got to go on a boat too? I like cats.

SarfEasticated · 19/02/2010 10:37

Crikey Tether that's a little harsh! Would you like us to come over to that thread and 'sort it out' for you?

SerenityNowakaBleh · 19/02/2010 10:37

Not cats. Cats are awesome.

Umami · 19/02/2010 10:38

Vicious bastards though. Teeth like needles.

tethersend · 19/02/2010 10:43

Thanks guys

Cats can stay I think.

Fuck it, Sarf, leave it, it's not worf it.

catastrojb · 19/02/2010 10:43

i can't believe you lot have opened the biscuits. that's just cruel. have given them, chocolate, cakes up for lent. (hot choc doesn't count though - my abstinence, my rules!).

sarf - ah, that's the reason. now I know - 'tis just awe and admiration from everyone else.

and yes, cats are awesome
