News you want? Non-prole, highbrow, high falooting news you want? Well get your chops round this and let's see how the thread draws in the punters

[suzywong]

it has come to my attention that I have been accused of dumbing down MN. I challenge the accuser to comment in and inclusive and stimulating manner which not only draws in other MNers but expands their consciousnessess with a pinch of cameraderie and creates a ferment of supportive sororiety.

a)
b)
c)

(b) all they are saying, is give war a chance

(a) who'd have thought it?

(c) quite right too!

well here I am and I'd like to say that I defend the right of any individual to talk about whatever subject they please. As long as they vote for me.

And with reference to those news stories, if we'd just round up the whole of Iraq, drop it in Norway and then start up factories there making wigs, we'd solve all 3 issues with one strike. An excellent use of resources I think you'll find.

the wigs are optional for barristers over here (ireland), i still choose to wear mine though as most judges look favourably on young lawyers respecting the traditions of the courts.no need for them nowadays though as there is not a huge lice problem.

Has another thread been deleted ? WHY ? I am interested in this thread deletion thing.....it seems to happen a lot...is it a bit like rubbing out bits of the past ? What do people think ? And then the poster who ' caused ' it is sent to ....? Be on their own..or something.
This is a genuine enquiry..

mozhe, I think it came under the heading of "personal attacks" in the end.

I'd love to comment, but I'm just packing for Norway ..

Yikes...sometimes wish RL was like MN...you could just delete whole conversations..'no, scrub that....we'll pretend we never, ever said that...'
Bizarre.
I'm off to start a new thread...

SuzyWong - I haven't actually 'personally accused' you of dumbing down MN. Perhaps you should re-read my OP. Also my name is spelt with an 'o' on the end, as in the moon.

I like the dumbing down it saves me going out to get hello and ok

oooooooooooooooooooooo-ooooooooooohhh

you did mention the Britney Spears baby groping a pack of marly lights thread and I did start that.

I am sorry for getting yor name wrong, but I do have to own up to a certain frisson stimulating me over your somewhat dominatrical condescending manner.

has this thing kicked off yet ? I always miss the fun. Give me a link to the accusation pls!!

btw 'moon' doesn't have an 'o' at the end - it has an 'n'.

yeah, it has an N

oh please please please please please please let it be all about ME

PMSL donnie - clearly we haven't passed Callisto's test and should retire to MN Lite immediately.

..and I totally agree Mozhe..except that MN Towers are a bit quick off the mark so they always delete the really good rows before I get to them.

ooooh I do like the word dominatrical (did you make it up suzy? twig will be onto you, you know)

I get a face full of serious newsy type discussions all the time in real life - I quite like coming on mumsnet to have a laugh (amongst other things).

(and GGG apols if you thought I was taking the piss out of you there - I hadn't read your linked thread before I posted!)

I once started a thread about turnips but no one responded. Dunno why ....

were the turnips being unreasonable though donnie?

if so, you should have said- it might have got more of a response then

No worries Fox - have just got home and the thread has been deleted - did it go on and get worse then?

because you should have started one on "brassica rapa"

..my thing learned for the day is that turnips are in the same family as oil seed rape. Fascinating.

actually now i recall a rather rude thread which may or may not have been initiated by suzywong but where she definitely introduced the subject of bukkake ( I still don't know what it means though)!

was thatyou suze?

well the turnips were actually ganging up on one outsider turnip and counselling and mediation services were necessary. An appearance on Jeremy Kyle was floated as well but that was considered a bit white fat tattoo trashy,but the money was good.

The turnip is now ok.

No, gggl, it didn't kick off again (unless it did it very quickly just before it got deleted) -- I think someone just took Caroline up on her invitation to click the red exclamation mark.

turnips fit Jeremy Kyle's profile quite well actually don't they

(wasn't watching the thread GGG - but I think a fair few people posted about how unpleasant it had become)

Hmmmmm... how to link "turnip" to "US president"...?

No, I'm drawing a blank there... no ideas at all

or just 'vegetable' , even!!

well OK if you want to go there... I am sure there is a war-over-oil oilseed rape link to be made as well. But I am working and therefore far too busy to be actually thinking as well.
