AIBU to suggest that *AnyFucker* and *StillDrSethHazlittMD* get a room?

[ItShouldHaveBeenJess]

Because there's something going on there....

Also think Still should shorten his user-name. Tis too long....

Seth is an absolute sweetheart ;)

We need to get Gasman on here too. Get some of those Pokey things swopped.

Thanks for the reply AF. I'm relieved you said you find it a bit weird sometimes as that's what I've thought at times but wouldn't say it on a thread as would be crucified!.

The responses to you do fascinate me from a psychological perspective and I often think I could come up with a case study but I doubt anyone outside of MN would want to read it!

So pissed, AF, you got the name the wrong way around

Glitter Am I??

So I did, Seth. How ungentlemanly of you to point that out.

Jess, we might need to talk. Massive waving red flag

There are only two people who matter on this thread, usual - the rest of us are just chaperones.

heKnows I like very much that you thanked AF for her response. I nominate for future Newsnight presenter - much nicer than that James WhatHisName who my mum fancies

hecknows, I'd read. it.
I am often bemused. About many things. Mainly on MN, but also in RL.

World's gorn maaaaaaaad!

Says you who spread the rumour I was rough as a bear's arse

usual Join in!

I don't think it's a private party, usual. I'd hate anyone to feel left out.

Yes you are Seth

A sweetheart

I never said I was a laydee, Seth

No idea why you think that Glitter but thank you

Pacific - it is fascinating. You can have a thread with 30 responses all saying the same thing then AF posts and says the same thing which is followed by lots of 'I agree with AF' posts not 'I agree with PP'.

And the people who think AF not posting on a thread means it's probably a troll. Plus all the 'I imagine AF is.., had a dream about AF. ..whenever I'm faced with a situation I think 'what would AF do?, it should be printed on mugs and tonnes of MNetters would buy'.

There was a deleted horrible thread a few months ago which was started by someone basically saying they hated her and there were many supportive posts but a few which were a bit ...odd but I hesitate to use that word as I don't want to minimise how people feel but one example post said 'I would give my life for AF'. I think that's an incredible thing to say about someone you don't know and testament to the emotion she appears to create.

It is fascinating that someone on an anonymous forum appears to have so much power in influencing people's responses and their lives, in many cases. And not just in a 'I got great advice" way but an 'I got advice from AF which must be correct/superior because it's AF' way.

And this is not any kind of criticism of AF and I've never thought she encourages this adulation nor have I ever seen her thinking that her opinions/views are more valid than others nor using her 'status' to influence others. It's a phenomenon not of her creation and has a life of it's own.

Sorry AF seeming to 'talk' about you as of you're not here!, I know you're here but it really fascinates me!.

Oi, Glitter, you're de-railing the thread!

Just to see you blush and run away Seth

Green-eyed monster showing there, Jess?

< whistles>

Thanks for saying I don't curry favour heknows

I have an opinion like everyone else and not afraid to use it. I do seem to have a knack of getting to the crux of the matter with the least syllables used. Not all will agree of course.

Fight, fight.

Absolutely not. You have made astonishingly rude and disparaging remarks about the lack of culture amongst 'my people' today (flounces off)

None of us is perfect
