personally I think they'll be queuing round the block for them! Environmentally sound AND fighting terrorism. Win-win.

Cozie, Twunk and I don't need a room. We will just go dogging with Stinky Spaniel.

Twunk · 10/07/2017 00:34

Stinky spaniel loves a bit of dogging

BSintolerant · 10/07/2017 00:37

Do you accept DMs about that Cozie? It doesn't have to involve pigeons. Wink

99point9 Grin What, or who's next? The Mormon Rag? The MLM Tango? I can't parody "I got it from Agnes" because every MLM will have a cure for "it"!

JS Bach's Coffee Cantata might be a goer though! Grin

Official first day of summer holidays. I have decided I'm going to start up an MLM selling gin Gin

Then I won't mind having pallets of product in my garage if I had a garage, it's actually a shed.

acatcalledjohn · 10/07/2017 19:21

@Twunk

I'm getting in early. I'll clear out my spare room for stock.

Twunk · 10/07/2017 20:13

@acatcalledjohn

I just got an email saying I had been tagged! Didn't know about that new fangledness!

In the meantime I am creating my own anti-bullying campaign, called "All haterz are jealous of your success".

Twunk · 10/07/2017 20:15

Who am I kidding? None of that gin is making it to the shed #sixweeksofhell

BSintolerant · 10/07/2017 20:51

Hogarth would have loved you Twunk. He might've etched your stinky spaniel cocking his leg on the corner of Gin Lane. Ponging Pussy would have to be depicted in The Rake's Progress. Wink

I'm going to create a course which teaches bots how to grab attention and sympathy by pretending to be bullied online.

Lesson one is all about how to set up a fake online profile.

Lesson two covers the basics of creating troll threads on social media to enable bots to bully themselves online whilst hiding behind the fake profile they created in lesson one.

Lesson three covers excuses for not informing the police about their ordeal.

Lesson four is a masterclass in how to say, "But officer, that's not my IP address! I've been hacked by jealous haters!" with a straight face. (Botox is optional.) 😉

DollyTwat · 10/07/2017 21:17

Think you have it BS

I mean anyone else would have been mortified that they'd been called out for being a shitty friend. Rather than using it as an excuse to scream 'bully'

We are in the era of Trump fake news I'm afraid

BSintolerant · 10/07/2017 21:30

It's fake everything in some cases Dolly. Fake it til you make it.

Twunk · 10/07/2017 22:07

Strange how much people care about what "jealous middle aged troll haterz" innit?

But we will say it again. As far as we can ascertain, no regular on this thread started that horrible wedding hair thread, and in fact someone who follows these threads actually contacted the poor bride to tell her what was going on.

We might be a bit cutting at time, rather sarcastic etc etc - but we are not bastards.

Mumsnet is a public forum, I'd look closer to home for suspects.

BSintolerant · 10/07/2017 23:02

Do any of you middle-aged jealous haters remember Spitting Image? How many people in the public eye accused the puppeteers who mercilessly sent them up of bullying? Nobody thought the viewers were jealous haters - there was nothing to be jealous of.

The Queen Mum's puppet was an alcoholic northern granny. Edwina Currie's puppet had awesome eyebrows. Douglas Hurd (I think) was transformed into a slug. 😂 Who could forget the Queen filing past Mrs Thatcher's coffin, pausing to check she was really dead before cackling with glee when Mrs T was kicked out of number 10?

It's well documented that accusing people of being jealous at every opportunity is an indicator of narcissistic personality disorder. There's enough bot material on Facebook for an entire conference on narcissism.

Twunk · 10/07/2017 23:20

I loved Spitting Image. I still remember all the words to chorus of the chicken song

BSintolerant · 10/07/2017 23:43

Cozie Which film is that from? Grin

cozietoesie · 11/07/2017 19:35

'Charade' - Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant. Smile

TrippleFlappyDiamondSparrow · 11/07/2017 23:07

Exsalonbot has really outdone herself with the latest live.

Pulling on the emotional strings more than a ever. Explaining how she tried to commit suicide, couldn't feed her kids and so on. How she has made the big mistakes joining other companies and quite freely admits she screwed people over, but it's okay because she is only human. All her little minions are actually buying what she is saying and hanging on her every word. Seriously disgusting.

There are people commenting saying they feel down and loosing motivation but watching her video has helped then. It's just sick and wrong.

I am fuming huns! 😠😠

cozietoesie · 11/07/2017 23:27

She admits she 'screwed people over'? What does she think she's doing now?

Spongebobette · 11/07/2017 23:31

Oh you have to watch the live on Stokeflatbot's page with his 'not shady in any way at all' upline and a coach

The advice on how to deal with rejection when recruiting is hil bloody arious
