Damn, I missed her, sorry

Particularly love it that xesmub from davidtennantshire has umpteen posts. The mods must have been to the pub today & left automod switched on.

I am crying all the way down to my knees reading these.

SoupDragon · 21/08/2009 22:42

I notice that they've not published any comments since 13:06. I suspect that's when the moderators came back from lunch. Where they probably had a nice ham sandwich.

Stayingsunnygirl · 21/08/2009 22:46

Those comments are absolutely priceless!!! Well done all of you.

Heated · 21/08/2009 22:47

Same time, next week then?

GrimmaTheNome · 21/08/2009 22:53

snurk snurk. I feel a bit sorry for the occasional earnest non-MN contributions.

IwishIhadtimetoreadnewspapers · 21/08/2009 23:00

I'm so srry that I missed tis earlier!

Brilliant - the lot of you!

LovelyTinOfSpam · 21/08/2009 23:02

OMG I have now been quoted in both the Times and the DM!!!

I don't know whether to or ...

Those comments, though, are fucking brilliant

A Mouldie, Underbridge...ROFL

Thunderduck · 21/08/2009 23:14

I'm waiting anxiously to see if they'll post my comment but I doubt it. It's so obviously a windup.

broguemum · 21/08/2009 23:23

I just snorted water over the keyboard and it dos nt work so well anymr you vipers!

lepirate · 21/08/2009 23:28

bloody brill!!

GrimmaTheNome · 21/08/2009 23:31

There don't seem to have been any new posts for a long time... perhaps they are blocking contributions until they have hired a new moderator as the old one was clearly either asleep on the job or else an MN mole.

TheWolfHasNoCommentForTheDM · 21/08/2009 23:32

"And funny how there was no obesity when children used to have to go up chimneys and down mines"

Excellent

LovelyTinOfSpam · 21/08/2009 23:36

Good to see they are shortening/changing the nicknames of the people they're quoting, too...

Hangingbellyofbabylon · 21/08/2009 23:37

love Marjorie Dawes - nothing like a dust sandwich.

Portofino · 21/08/2009 23:39

As xesbum, I was pretty gratified that the moderator allowed me to cut and paste from Leah Hardy's "original" article. ie I postedbits of her "article" as comment. The moderator strangely didb't allow xesbum's comment that "MNtters were as mad as a box of frogs with an unhealthy interest in Pirate Sex" though

Portofino · 21/08/2009 23:41

But the dust sandwich and baked potato posted wer truly excelllent!

Thunderduck · 21/08/2009 23:41

I guess we won't be hearing from Mr Twist after all. Unless they're going to upload the rest of the comments tomorrow.
