Cheerio

I wouldn't expect many to recognise me but I just thought I'd say cheerio.

MN is not the place for me anymore.

Recent events have left me completely disillusioned and I just don't have the confidence to post anymore.

I didn't even make it a year! Shame that.

Wishing everyone all the best.

Bye.

AIBU to sell everything in my house for crack when I really really want some?

Honeydragon · 05/10/2011 14:40

I got away with it Pag, but in another much older newbier guise I got a hysterical stern telling off for throwing foam tennis balls at my dog, despite some of the "doggy" posters posting to say WTF? Leave the poor woman alone. Blush

Pinot · 05/10/2011 14:40

Yeah Mardy spill woman

TobyLeWolef · 05/10/2011 14:41

If I could be arsed, I'd go and trawl Pinot and Shirley's twitter timelines to find out wtf is going on, but I can't.

Pagwatch · 05/10/2011 14:41

did you shout at people in real life mardyShock

I told a bloke at the rugby that he was an utter twat on Saturday. Dh thinks mn is leading me astray. And I am old so I come across as a foul mouthed retired head teacher.

Yes. We should inundate aibu until it disappears up it's own arse.
That's all

GetOrfMo1Land · 05/10/2011 14:41

We need to know who excldued Velvet and made her leave.

We could then hunt them down. We could be like the A Team.

Baggsy I be BA Baracus (pity the fool)

mrsruffallo · 05/10/2011 14:42

I can't take it anymore. You a bunch of boring bastards.
I'm off.

LadyBeagleEyes · 05/10/2011 14:42

What a nice place to escape to.
There are currently three threads going at the moment that need a serious PARD kick up the arse. Grin.
People just get so angry and rude.
Does anyone know yet why Velvet flounced?

Pagwatch · 05/10/2011 14:42

Oooh that sounds like a line from Dr Who, Toby

MardyBra · 05/10/2011 14:43

Two women in front of me who for some reason had to spend £60 each to get some sort of discount/promotion. (I think they may have been staff). Lots of faffing ("shall I get the tin of Roses or you"), then one wandered off to get some more items to bump up her total. And then the other one hadn't spent enough and she wandered off too to find more things to buy. Not so much as an acknowledgement or an apologetic "do you mind if I do this?" or anything...

And then the words came out, and I did a double take because I wasn't sure if I'd actually said them or not. But I had. Loudly. At least I didn't swear involuntarily.

GetOrfMo1Land · 05/10/2011 14:43

Valhalla really really shouted at me once when I said I would kick a dog up the arse if it jumped up on me.

I really like her though, she is very funny on many threads and I know she has been kind to so many people off board, even if she gets on people's nerves.

AbsDuWolef · 05/10/2011 14:46

So what's happened? Is there a new clique? I like VelvetSnow. She's not a cheerless scrote like some people on MN.

TobyLeWolef · 05/10/2011 14:46

I called a man a dick in Tesco's yesterday because he was telling the cashier how ridiculous it was that he lost his job for calling a woman a lesbian.

His 'hilarious' story ended with the line, "The funny thing is, she was!".

Dick.

GetOrfMo1Land · 05/10/2011 14:46

OOh Mardy what did they DOOOOO.

I am longing LONGING for someone to have a go at me when I park (childless) in a P&C space in the supermarket. I can then be sarcastic to the person in real life and then come on here and tell you about it.

It's like when I breastfed all over the shop and had all my retorts ready for when someoen said something amiss, or asked me to move. Nobody ever said a godamned thing. All the old ladies nodded and smiled at me. Where's a miserable old battleaxe when you want them.

MardyBra · 05/10/2011 14:46

LadyBeagle - see Pinot's post of 14.31

Honeydragon · 05/10/2011 14:47

Yes I think PARD needs to give certain posters like Valhalla diplomatic immunity to be AN ARSE, because they use their powers of ARSE for the greater good.

ARSE - Arguing Relevantly Sincerely Eloquently

Hullygully · 05/10/2011 14:48

Look I have started Frothing Berserkers and Enemies freds.

Three parallel convos at once.

AbsDuWolef · 05/10/2011 14:49

Link to threads please. Some of us are very busy lazy

DreamsOfSteam · 05/10/2011 14:49

Isn't that really annoying when you have brilliant comebacks just itching to get out and no-one says a dam bloody word Angry

GetOrfMo1Land · 05/10/2011 14:49

ARSE

A Reactionary Sod who's Exempt

Pinot · 05/10/2011 14:50

Oh I love Vallhala too. She's never shouted at me

Abs I just 'd at Velvet is "not a cheerless scrote"

GetOrfMo1Land · 05/10/2011 14:50

That's what I reckon 68% (accurate stats) of AIBU threads are.

Arguments that people want to have.

MardyBra · 05/10/2011 14:51

GetOrf. It was a classic British embarrassment scene. No eye contact. No acknowledgement of my outburst. No apology. Woman number 2 did that mock hurrying running thing back with the items she had grabbed. Then paid and went.

Maybe GetOrf and I should have a set-to in a supermarket and come on here and have the nice PARDY people see which of us is the more unreasonable...

JenaiMarrHePlaysGuitar · 05/10/2011 14:53

I think 68% is a conservative estimate tbh.

Honeydragon · 05/10/2011 14:53

Much better Getorf....cheers!
