to be aghast at this old woman I saw

[Fibilou]

putting her cigarette out (really grinding it) on the trunk of a tree in the town centre.

I wanted to say something but am not really the confrontational type. Now I wish I had

Why are you doing this to me?

Oh fuck, you're not going to believe this but I'm in an urban setting and there's a bloody woodpecker.

ow ow ow owowowowowowowo

Not seen the film DeadWood, but I saw it on stage when rolled on into town

i am pmsl at this thread!

i also really want to know what op would have said to the old dear had she been the confrontational type.....

i also wish you had because the thread may then have been the funniest thing ever!

Well, I don't want to go against the grain...

me thinks the op needs to get out more

Fibilou. . .people on here can be very synical and take the piss.... not waht you need though. You question was genuine afterall. What that woman did was not that nice. . .but then smoking and where they puts their fag ends isnt generally. She was just an uneducated ignorant old biddy. . . . .and didnt know no betta !!!!!!
You m.neteers are SHITE the way you take the micky. . .horrible !

Don't be such a stick in the mud

im choking on my sticky bun with laughter.
OP, okay, in all seriousness what she did wasnt nice. but it has produced something wonderful. a poem and a truckload of tree jokes.

Oh come on - this is hilarious! Really aghast?! pmsl.

InjuredTree, meet your cousin PiercedTree

Have to say I would be too.

Completely unnecessary imo.

I hear you Fibilou.

VVCAJ - that was a tough time for our family tree indeed. But it ended happily as they became inseparable.

I'm torn between wanting to soothe the poor OP and wanting to pmsl at all the puns.

Life's a beech sometimes

There a road near me, Burnt Ash Hill.

People, it's knot funny

Did somebody call?

Oohh Chickensneed...

There must be loads more out there!

What's brown and sticky? A stick

What do you call a boomerang that doesn't come back? A stick

Go on think girl. Think

Pedro, no Chicken's stumped.

Thanks for cheering me up everyone.

LOL

Thought I'd just "log" on to see how this thread is getting on.

Sigh! I tried!

She was just an uneducated ignorant old biddy. . . . .and didnt know no betta !!!!!!

Irony.

She might see the error of her ways if she's an mn-er.

Touch wood.

It doesn't compare to the fat old lady I saw at our local club. (Never go there but took DM there because she wanted to have lunch there).

Noticed the fat old lady because she was munching on a piece of bread as she was spooning pasta onto her plate.

She then proceeded to scrape the pasta off the server with the piece of bread she was eating and put the server back in the pasta and went on her merry way.

This is a pretty upmarket club with lots of staff hovering around. I complained to one and he took the offending spoon and pasta dish away.

I only had lemon chicken to eat and I waited until the chef put out a new batch before serving myself.

On a slightly more serious note, I can't see why the OP feels the need to say it was an old woman?* What does her age have to do with it?

*if I wasn't trying to make a serious point, I might say I was stumped by this....
