What is the correct etiquette please?

You need not quote directly from Debretts.

If I weren't in the queue for the soggy salmonella sarnies left in Tescos- I'd write a longer OP. Angry

This thread is brilliant ❤

ANewIdentitytoJazzItUpABit · 06/05/2016 11:36

I'm hooked, hooked I tell's ya!!

I don't understand people going on about page numbers... I get 100 posts per page so I'm on page 9? so what?

Standard view is 25 posts per page. I have also customised to 100 per page; some people View All .

It's just another measure of the size of a thread, rather than saying "I'm about 600 posts in" which is harder to estimate.

TinyTear · 06/05/2016 11:43

I'd go crazy having to reload a page after 25 posts! especially on a phone with a slow connection! (sorry for clogging up the page... not placemarking as I use the bookmark and watch function... polishes halo)

She has bought courgettes. Can't believe no one's suggested carving the ends to look like cocks...

OTheHugeManatee · 06/05/2016 11:44

Go ITBitch!

Can't wait for the moment she realises there's something wrong Grin

whatsonyourplate
Grin so childish but that would be so so funny

EvansAndThePrince · 06/05/2016 11:55

Cannot wait to hear about her reaction to the fridge being off Grin

HisNameWasPrinceAndHeWasFunky · 06/05/2016 11:59

Loving the plug and purple writing :)

And I've saved the C.U.N.T. image for use at a later date (thought I've already sent it to my colleagues who are loving it) - cheers to the person who posted that.

May all her courgettes be flaccid, and her yogurts be like sour fanny.

and TFIF as we office workers love to say!

shoeaddict83 · 06/05/2016 11:59

im so over-invested in this thread! ITbitch is amazing i cannot wait to her about Fridgehoggers reaction!!! :D

Oh PLEASE do this

"Take all the shelves, including door shelves, out of the fridge and hide them."

Personally, I'd take one shelf a day.

AskingForAPal · 06/05/2016 12:14

It'd be easy to carve words into the courgettes as well:

Selfish
and
Git

for example

WienerDiva · 06/05/2016 12:21

This thread is not good for my post hysterectomy recovery Grin!

But it is cheering me up no end!

Just go for it and cut the plug off as well as remove the shelves?

mix56 · 06/05/2016 13:09

Won't she just pile the bags in the fridge on top of one another?

did I mention I used to have a teaspoon which had a chain chaining it to my mug? because useless lazy fuckers kept losing all the tea spoons. (I keep mug in my desk !!!!!, I guess, they hated me !

WhyCantIuseTheNameIWant · 06/05/2016 13:48

I haven't read all the pages as I can't keep quiet enough for dd to sleep..

But I'd like to offer a couple of alternative suggestions.

  1. Get an extension lead of same colour as fridge cable. Hide fridge plug behind fridge. Plug in cable. Looks like fridge plugged in.
  1. Needs a couple of minutes of quiet fridge time.
Open the plug and remove fuse. Put clear nail varnish around the edges of the fuse. NOT THE FLAT ENDS. The fridge won't work as it won't have power. But most people check a fuse on the flat ends. So the fuse will appear fine!

Reassemble and leave plugged in. The fridge will be declared broken. She will need to make new shopping plans.

DidYouBINmysushiyouTWAT · 06/05/2016 14:00

SHE KNOWS THE FRIDGE IS NOT WORKING ((puts fingers in ears))
REPEAT
SHE KNOWS THE FRIDGE IS NOT WORKING (what if maintenance check the plug !)

she's sent an email telling everyone not to open the door as its broken and her spam will spoil

ITbitch & sidekick (SK) keep opening the door. He's is living on the edge!

Oooooh, the action is hotting up!!! < quivers in anticipation>

ICanCountToOneHundred · 06/05/2016 14:07

ITbitch is a hero. I bet they're giggling like schoolchildren every time they open the door.

LaContessaDiPlump · 06/05/2016 14:08

I bet you'll be looking at ITbitch and SK a bit differently after this, op! They're clearly more dangerous than they've been given credit for Grin

WineOrSleep · 06/05/2016 14:09

op I think I'm a little bit in love with you, ITbitch and sidekick

qazxc · 06/05/2016 14:11

Go it bitch and side kick. Are they leaving it open or just opening and closing it?

CostaAddict · 06/05/2016 14:13

Have treated DS to soft play for an hour so I can keep up to date on this post! Best thread ever.

Makes me very thankful I have lovely colleagues. Although reminds me of DH workmates theives. They stole his chicken!! (DH works in food industry sales and occasionally gets to purchase leftover stock). Returned home last night chicken less!! Was not amused.... Have ordered him to start a chicken hunt at work.
