This thread was removed by feminists

Soooooooo, just to clarify. Does the "This thread was removed by feminists" mean that you, MNHQ are feminists and removed the thread. Or that "dem pesky feminists" made you pull a perfectly good thread.

Cos you know, it could be read either way.

And one way might make me quite ranty, so I though I'd better check....

Please don't get ranty, it is deffo the non-ranty answer one

The thread was vair anti-wimmin and anti-feminism, started by a troll - 'twas a little joke, I will attempt to edit the message and clarify.

Poor Rebecca. It's hard trying to be witty when there is such a burden of expectation.

Quick response though!

Hee hee! I am famous! Except the link to here didn't come out in the new message (some people are never happy ).

I was just having visions of hairy-legged feminists in dungarees marching up to the thread with grim determined faces, picking it up and making off with it.

I was on the thread, so I know why it was deleted. I just like to be difficult.

What were you going for?!?

These are a day late

SabrinaMulhollandJjones · 02/03/2013 23:00

Oh I love the daffodil!

Startail · 02/03/2013 23:02

See not working, anyway I want a [real fire breathing dragon] not a wimpy flower. Then we could scare the trills back under their bridge and let HQ have wine and sleep on Saturday night.

SabrinaMulhollandJjones · 02/03/2013 23:04

Dragon would have been cool.

IamtheZombie · 02/03/2013 23:05

The daffodil only ever works on St. David's Day. It's special like that.

SabrinaMulhollandJjones · 02/03/2013 23:07

Ah, missed it. Til next year then ....

mathanxiety · 03/03/2013 05:17

Did the feminists take the daffodils too?

AnnieLobeseder · 03/03/2013 14:54

They probably did, mathanxiety. Feminists are like that.

I am currently trying (completely unsuccessfully) to convince various "what about the menz" types on a bunfight in the Independent comments section that feminists are quite nice really and don't want to throw rocks at men. They seem unconvinced. Thread-removal and daffodil-stealing Bad Feminists are ruining the reputation of feminists everywhere. It's a bloody disgrace. I shall write to the Daily Fail.
