I see a lot of that 'what's my why' stuff and mindset training etc, dream boards...

Makes me think of Scientology where you are 'audited' and they find out all about you.

Then they know all your hopes and weaknesses. And can exploit them. Scary.

Ugh the reason WHY. Having a family to support is my reason why I do the job I do but I'm able to roll out of bed for work in a morning without posting a vomit inducing meme or a pic of DD holding shitty aloe tooth paste.

Incidentally, I read an article the other day claiming people who post inspirational quotes on Social Media are less intelligent...

Many a thread has passed since work and life took me away from bot watching. Well done for keeping up the good work everyone, particularly with this new Maelle nonsense.
My bots are all conspicuously 'enjoying the last few weeks of the holidays' presumably while downlines beaver away fruitlessly. Or while everyone pretends to chillax with the kids whilst frantically working behind the idyllic FB facade.
Also I'm amazed by this jumping out of the frying pan into the fire of the newest scam. As someone up thread said, I'm staggered by the blithe seguing from 'FL is amaze balls' to 'oh maybe it wasn't so I've jumped ship'.
'Am I mad, or do I know what's coming?' they post with their videos. Not saying it's the former but sadly it's certainly not going to be the latter. If it was they would call it a day now. How I wish they would.

Welcome back Tiara!

I am approaching the end of the summer holidays - boys go back on Monday. Then I have a major work project (and I work from home! So despite that I can still collect the little darlings from school) and loads of other shit. Things should calm down by October....

Ah yes Maëlle - same turd, different polish

NorbertDentressangle · 18/08/2016 09:00

lol at Ah yes Maëlle - same turd, different polish

Or as DP says.... you can't polish a turd but you can roll it in glitter

This is essentially what they're doing isn't it? Just rolling their new inverted triangle shaped turds in glitter to disguise their shit-ness and appeal to the vulnerable

One of the fl bots I nosy at is convinced her baby is sleeping through the night and is everything she wanted her to be because she wrote it on her goal board. Now that is very scarey if thats what she really believes. She also reckons that doing the C9 has made her realise having a mac Donalds wrap everytime she went out is not a very good eating habit. Seriously, Im not making fun at the girl, it is just prove to me how dangerous these sort of Mlms are.

Spongebobette · 18/08/2016 12:09

Urgh Annie

This is like 'cosmic ordering' (I think it's called that, as espoused by Noel Edmonds. Basically you tell the universe what you want and you'll get it. See also: dreamboarding.

Annie65 · 18/08/2016 12:16

Sponge, I could have told her eating macdonalds wraps all the time is not good for you and saved her £100 quid. Just wait till her baby turns into a toddler, she wont have that on her dream board.

ForeverYazoonique · 18/08/2016 12:42

She'll be needing that £100 for all the aloe Vera shit she needs to buy.

ds1 was an excellent sleeper. It was luck.

Spongebobette · 18/08/2016 12:43

I have just cosmically ordered a million pounds.
Do you think I can go out shopping or should I wait in for delivery?

cozietoesie · 18/08/2016 13:07

If you've ordered it cosmically, Sponge, it should find its way to you wherever you are. You're safe to go to the shops. Grin

Whatwhatwhat??

This gives me THE RAGE

cozietoesie · 18/08/2016 18:47

Somebody could email the editor a link to the Botwatch articles on making extra/alternative income and running your own business. Smile

Well known tactic - my Younique bot (now quit) did loads of these prize draws. Isn't it gambling? Is that legit?

ForeverYazoonique · 18/08/2016 19:52

Wondermoomin I am also raging about that!!!! Fucking hells bells

lilwelshyrs · 18/08/2016 20:08

Oh wow - didn't realise it wasn't allowed... I'm half tempted to comment but I won't... 🙈

ForeverYazoonique · 18/08/2016 20:23

No idea if it is, but I remember running prize draws for large companies - you ALWAYS have to have a free way of entering (e.g. Sending in a postcard) or it's deemed gambling - you can't only have a premium line to enter, for example, nor can it just be from buying a product

Spongebobette · 18/08/2016 20:37

Quick update: I am now not sure cosmic ordering works. My million pounds hasn't appeared :-(

ForeverYazoonique · 18/08/2016 20:40

Sponge I hope you didn't go and buy a dozen designer handbags

Spongebobette · 18/08/2016 20:42

I cosmically ordered some and they aren't here either :-((
