I'm definitely off, Won't namechange, just going to go.

[Fenton]

Not attention seeking, just thought I'd clear off in the proper way,

I've had some amazing things happen since I've been here, good solid friends, life changing things , which I will always be grateful for.

I don't think I'm sensitive flower, I've always been more concerned about upsetting other people than worried for my own feelings.

Having my opinions and viewpoints pulled apart or mocked I can withstand, but to be belittled by people I feel I have chatted over sometime now actually hurts my feelings, - so, after sobbing into my cocoa for the past hour I know it's time to go.

It's surprising the things that finally make you flounce, innit?

I am a sideboard.

If you talk to someone enough on here or in RL they become your friends, isn't that how friendships come about?

Apologies if I have offended some people.

I accept that for many people the Real World ain't that great and that MN is their way of escaping the insularity that is the modern world.

As someone upthread has said, it's a bit silly coming onto a flouncer forum and complain about flouncing so

I desperately wanted to be bionic when I was younger. That's sort of cyborg-like, isn't it?

Actually, I'd still like to be bionic. Like Jamie Summers (?).

And some people like both, Totally.

That was my facial expression at being fiddled with btw.

Personally I don't use Mumsnet to escape from the real world, I use the real world as an escape from Mumsnet .

Lolled at Scrambled.

Why, thank you kindly, Maryz.

The name scrambledsmegs always makes me laugh.

It was the post that made me laugh or at least the PA deletion. The name is always good too. I do like a bawdy pun.

Is there a limit? I had no idea

I thought I was allowed as many friends as I like. I had no idea that online friends and RL friends were mutually exclusive. Balls.

(Don't waste a growl Pinot I'm still a lard arse. As painfully demonstrated by the fact that I've lost 17 sodding pounds and not one fucker has noticed.)

We haven't forgotten you yet Fenton. We could be hanging out here for some time...

We are all sad lonesome fuckers in real life aren't we?

I must go and straighten my piles of collected newspapers over the years.

My MIL does the collected newspapers thing. She won't chuck out her Daily Expresses until she has done every crossword and read every story. She even put them into storage when moving house.

17lb!!!!! WOW. YOu must feel so much better. Wow. Well done

Cor, I do love a bit of appreciation

I must be a really sad fucker, no bugger likes me on here or IRL, but by christ, I don't complain when someone flounces, I think that people online are very funny sometime and they should be encouraged. The goady sods should stuff off.
