Lets keep monitoring these pesky MLMs, shining a light on their nefarious activities, and supporting bots who realise the truth and need support.

Really, these bots should proof read before the post. Sigh.

So exciteddddddddd 🤑
YES it's Saturday
YES it's Easter Weekend 🐣
But that's not stopping me....Money Mindset course starts today! 💰

I want to keep learning and devolving as much as I possibly can so I can be THE BEAT VERSION OF ME! 🙌🏻

The more you learn the more you earn, how much are you earning?

Spongebobette · 15/04/2017 17:01

What does a bot devolve into, I wonder 😉

Penelopepyramid · 15/04/2017 17:10

It does make you wonder whether folks like Stokebot, Topsalonbot and Coffeebotexgirlfofstokebot are just as addicted to the drama as they are their endless scheming with pyramid scams.

Stokebot's daily meltdowns on FB don't reallly help reinforce the illusion he tries to peddle of being a high-gloss business entrepreneur, in command of a Warren Buffet-sized business empire. He seems more like a troubled toddler going through the temper-tantrum stage, stamping his feet every time he forgets where he left his dummy.

Penelopepyramid · 15/04/2017 17:13

I'm assuming, then, that the "essence of every part of me" Salonbot refers to must be industrial grade Botox?

TheCatsWhiskers · 15/04/2017 17:38

Can someone PM me who StokecoffeeBotwholivesinaflat is too please? I just have to know now!

lastuseraccount123 · 15/04/2017 22:14

hey guys, here to kill the fun with a killjoy comment. You're welcome.

Just a note on on the use of the word "wampum" - I have recently learned (via a course in indigenous studies in north america, in particular on the Haudenosaunee) that the way we use "wampum" is actually racist. Wampum beads/shells were the indigenous forms of money (not really money as we understand it, to be honest, it had a more powerful significance in their culture) and many treaties were made using belts of wampum beads, that had spiritual significance for their communities.

here's a link from the Haudenosaunee Confederacy explaining the real meaning: www.haudenosauneeconfederacy.com/wampum.html

I'm 99.99% sure the shite sold by MLMs doesn't deserve to be called wampum. It's shite. Not wampum.

Carry on, thanks for reading.

I don't know who used the word originally but it's possible he/she/whoever didn't know the history.

Spongebobette · 15/04/2017 22:37

Thank you lastuser

I was unaware of the etymology of that word.

lastuseraccount123 · 15/04/2017 23:29

so was I until 2 weeks ago, but when you know better, you do better right amirite

cozietoesie · 15/04/2017 23:32
Smile
Spongebobette · 15/04/2017 23:41

Absolutely

It's offensive used in the context we have been using it

Toobusytowee · 16/04/2017 00:23

We need a new word for that special brand of shite.

DoratheExplorer17 · 16/04/2017 00:57

I suggest Dahl's Dictionary for the new name. He has some fabulous words in there 😊

I like that, Dora!

How about botsnot?

Spongebobette · 16/04/2017 09:32

Seconded!

Toobusytowee · 16/04/2017 09:47

Botsnot!!

MyCatsHateMLMtoo · 16/04/2017 12:44

Thanks for the headsup, last.

Botsnot, or plain ol' "shite" for me Grin

DoratheExplorer17 · 16/04/2017 13:25

Botsnot it is then haha

ArbunneHun · 16/04/2017 22:58

Anyone else slightly disappointed at the lack of drama? I'm waiting for the next exciting episode of #CoffeeWars!

Will ScouseStokeFlatBot get a job & pay that rent?

Will ExValentusEdinarNewCoffeeBot launch NewCoffee & ever find true love?

Will SalonBot's website be edited for spelling & grammar?

Will SalonBot's Boyf ever stop insulting & threatening anyone who mentions SalonBot's dodgy past?

CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT INSTALLMENT! Eeeeeeek!

Spongebobette · 16/04/2017 23:13

It's better than any soap Arbunne

penny1ane · 17/04/2017 09:06

One of the top 10 flp bots has created a new website for her business. No real mention of forever except for pictures holding bonus cheques.
Just talk of 'business'.
Is this a new tactic for recruiting?

Botwatcher84 · 17/04/2017 09:40

Yes, one i know has a group called the zealous group whatever that means

MrsGotobed · 17/04/2017 10:04

The FL bots have been quiet this weekend too.

Local school mum bot hasn't mentioned how #blessed she is once this weekend. She's been too busy posting pictures of stuff she's selling after a clear out (maybe to fund her ticket to next years Global Rally because #sackingtheboss and working daytimes, evenings and weekends at her #business doesn't seem to be getting her there Hmm)

Spongebobette · 17/04/2017 10:17

'Our mission'

Pah

acatcalledjohn · 17/04/2017 10:48

I have a new bot!

She is Youneeeeeeek, though not of the extreme variety by the looks of it. Still, her make up is so lifeless it makes her look like a made up doll. She is so much prettier without that cheap crap plastered on her face.

MrsGotobed · 17/04/2017 10:52

Envy I want a Youneeeeek bot!

I did sort of have one on fb (friend of a friend) but she went off and had a baby before she had chance to get totally brainwashed.

Like your bot cat, now she doesn't have time to apply layer upon layer of make-up she looks much younger Hmm
