ChippyMinton · 29/05/2008 20:31

and shut the door on the way out please.

lazarou · 29/05/2008 20:31

More like Flounderer's corner, they always come back for more

I think the phrase is 'don't let the door hit your arse on the way out'

Seriously though, surely it's a flouncers trampoline since they always come back.

WilfSell · 29/05/2008 21:36

And will this be the music we play as they leave?

Swedes · 30/05/2008 14:08

HC said it should be Flouncers' Ampitheatre. Corner is all wrong. I might have to flounce if they don't change it.

MascaraOHara · 30/05/2008 14:12

yeah but they hardly ever actually make it through the door. 'Holding Bay' maybe? the 'Mardy Booth'?

The people who genuinely flounce (or just leave) and don't come back tend not to announce it.

Flouncers' Lobby?

JustineMumsnet · 30/05/2008 14:29

Well corner, we think, has a certain symmetry with pedants' corner - which is where you lot all should be of course - given that you're moaning about this...

We like to think of this area as a special place for those who are announcing any of the following:

a) That they've had it up to here with MN and they're off.
b) That MN is crap/not what it was/full of meanies.
c) That they're back though that doesn't mean that MN isn't crap/not what it was/full of meanies.

And tbh a corner is as good a place as any for all that, no? (Perhaps, we should have a swishy curtain somewhere though...)

[ambles off to Pedants' Corner to parse the phrase "that doesn't mean that MN isn't not what it was"]

WilfSell · 30/05/2008 14:30

You're forgetting a holding area while we grill attack barrack welcome flouncers from competitor sites. They're here already!

wrinklytum · 30/05/2008 14:31

LOL at "Mardy booth",

Haven't heard the term "mardy" for years,takes me back to schooldays....

JustineMumsnet · 30/05/2008 14:32

Oh well yes we can have refugees too - the more the merrier I say.
(Mrs B you're very mean - I'm thinking of flouncing)

Justabout - I think it's more extraordinary rendition. They will turn a blind eye if you give them a fiver.

Justabout - I'm with LittleLapin. I gasped when I saw you casually outing someone. I think it was bad form and you should ask for that post to be deleted. Sorry.
