"Disingenuous" MNHQ?

That's just rude. A non confession of culpability)

(Team Millions on that issue)

Well, it certainly wasn't meant to be rude.

Disingenuous means "not candid". Which was exactly what I was culpable of being. And what I apologised for.

I quoted our Talk Guidelines about trolls, without disclosing that they had been very slightly tweaked last night.

Get yer ed in that oven, Helen

I thought it was a splendidly generous apology. I wish I had the nerve to say sorry more. It sometimes feels a v scary thing to do, a bit like draping yourself with meat in a lion enclosure.

That's how it read to me. And probably to OP too. Disingenuous on here, as you know, has a rather iffy context.
However, thanks for the clarification .

Crikey. I have been away from MN for a bit and come back to see this.
I always miss the bunfights
For those who seem to be having problems with any changes
this might help

All this over the cake and lack of birds thread?!

I thought it was funny and wasn't offensive. Wish I had that sort of imagination

Slight diversion: how are you mary, I've not seen you for eons!

Can MNHQ reinstate threads? I would love to see King Tut back too.

I really enjoyed Greensleeves' thread, it was hilarious. DD is currently chortling her way through it instead of doing something useful 'cos I'm a shit mum.

I tend to feel that it's "Buyer beware" on the internet, even here, and always have a pciture in my mind's eye of Dave the Hairy Handed Trucker (who yesterday burnt cakes beneath a birdless sky).

By the way, aren't penguins birds?

Has Godwins law been used yet?

Mary I've had it too, lasted a bloody fortnight! Hope you feel better soon, lovey.

Who are you Trampy? Can you drop me a pm?

And has that little thing gone which tells you how many times a thread has been liked on Facebook? I can't see it anywhere but can't imagine this isn't being discussed over there somewhere.

Facebook thingy top right of thread. So far, no-one seems to have clicked it, which is amazing.

No, I am in a permanent state of flouncing. I might flounce at the drop of hat . Sorry you are poorly chuck.

Biwi, at zero for me too.

Mary, dh is just getting over it, he has been unbearable. I am shit with colds because of my ribs, but he was much iller than me and my dislodging ribcage...

And have pmed you mintyy

Sorry to hear about the coughs and colds no, wait

Even if it makes us at MNHQ look like twits

This is one of the reasons I love MN!!

Rats, I was enjoying reading this thread till about page six and now I really want to eat some cake but I have sworn off sugar so I have to stop having fun and do some coughing (also have yukky cold but it is going away now thank goodness)
