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

...and on that note, bough out gracefully...

WillowM2B · 21/05/2010 09:05

I think you should all butt out and leave the OP alone.

pedrothellama · 21/05/2010 09:16

Willow - you are right, but your name is unfortunately fitting for this thread.

hocuspontas · 21/05/2010 09:25

You're going to have to stop ladies! I'm off work with a bad back and every time I snort with laughter I'm in agony!

Cobwebsontheceiling · 21/05/2010 10:33

Think we need to stop the joaks now

(terrible pun I know but this thread made me laugh!)

Monty100 · 21/05/2010 10:39

Willow - are you getting syc-a-more jokes?

(geddit geddit, do you see what I did there??)

Cobwebsontheceiling · 21/05/2010 10:41

Stop you don't want Willow to start weeping

Morloth · 21/05/2010 10:41

I get where you are coming from but only the dropping would annoy me.

I remember last summer a lady worrying about an oak tree my DS and a couple of his friends were playing under. They were playing swords with a couple of sticks and occasionally the tree got whacked. It was an oak and at least a couple of hundred years old from the size of it, just how much damage could 3 4yo boys do?

OldMacEIEIO · 21/05/2010 10:46

What tickled me was the thought of the rain forest being chopped down in large chunks for commercial greed and the op was aghastified by a fag attack.

I suppose we have to make a stand somewhere

Monty100 · 21/05/2010 10:57

Cobs - rofl .

OldMac - indeed, totally sapped.

maltesers · 21/05/2010 11:09

Has anyone noticed that the mocked poor old OP has not posted in anymore. You guys are just rambling tosh by yourselves.!!!!

fireupthequattro · 21/05/2010 11:10

My DH cut the grass this morning before leaving for an Army exercise - is that a case of the Military performing blatant mass murder?

He then callously dumped all their heads in the composter....

I am currently filing for divorce on the grounds of unreasonable behaviour. The beast.

Monty100 · 21/05/2010 11:43

Maltesers - yes, we are. It's fun .

maltesers · 21/05/2010 11:52
Confused
Cobwebsontheceiling · 21/05/2010 12:04

Maybe she has found another axe to grind (loosely related tree gag...)

Seriously .. am not making fun of the OP, it's just all the tree jokes are too hard to resist!

Sorry OP, am not poking fun at you

tethersend · 21/05/2010 13:31

Underneath the thin veneer of respectability, we are all pisstakers.

Pikelit · 21/05/2010 13:34

I've just killed a cowslip. I'm devistated at the tradgedgy. Can we start a Facebook page?

Monty100 · 21/05/2010 13:40

Lol.

You can't see the wood from the trees with the posts on here.

What was the thread about again?

Sorry OP, it is Friday and I'm a bit de-mob happy.

pedrothellama · 21/05/2010 14:04

Poor OP I'll stick up for you

Monty100 · 21/05/2010 14:19

I'm sure OP'll twig on we're just joshing.

notthatfunnyreally · 21/05/2010 20:37

YANBU.

So many trees are killed in this fashion.

Er....

MrsHarkness · 21/05/2010 20:53

I have been in a really bad mood all day and now I cant stop laughing after reading this thread, ta for cheering me up lol

WilfShelf · 22/08/2010 17:13

I haven't been on MN for ages and found this thread which had me wetting myself. So thought would revive it. Evil evil evil genius MN humour at its best. Sorry OP. Bloody hilarious though.

WilfShelf · 22/08/2010 17:17

I actually wept at special branch.
