Has the world gone mad?

?

As a box of frogs, MO

Not the world, just Mumsnet. Mad as snakes.

Are boxes of frogs mad? Were they mad before they got in there, or do they only select mad ones to go into the box???

Perhaps the box makes them mad?

I thought it was a bag of sticks?
or am I mixing my metaphors?

Have you not heard that before? I would imagine a box of frogs would be pretty mental, actually

Lol - that was the other option I meant to put... otherwise I've just reworded the same option twice.

Bag of sticks is clearly mad though... barking in fact

whatever happened to a good old fashioned "mad as a hatter"? or am I a dinosaur?

can sticks bark?

Nutty as a fruitcake

I say 'hatter' too

it's a good point though, I wonder why a bag of sticks is mad? (can totally see the mental frogs )

definitely mad as a hatter .

wouldn't it be mad to carry a bag of sticks around? logistics and all that.. m uch more sesible to have a basket of sticks

Do sticks not bark to you?

Is that just me????

I always thought sticks snapped not barked (especially f you step on them)

only the special sticks flamesparrow.

Don't worry flamesparrow - embrace the sticks!

Are they special in the same way that DH and my sister pat my head and tell me that I'm "special"

yes!

Perhaps we should have a new thread - what's the madder?

sobernow -

Have to take your word for that...

the only latin I remember is "Metella in atrium sedet"
