I am boycotting threads about the plight of the McCann family - anyone else?

I have the utmost sympathy for the Mccann family, and hope for a happy ending to thier trouble. Meanwhile I am not happy about many aspects of teh many threads, and hearby resolve to completely boycott them. By not clicking, not reading, nor responding (however horrible the views), and thus not adding to the circular and predicatable route they take, no matter what quality of ontervention is made.

Clasp your right hand over your left Nork and repeat the boycott pledge after me!

havent read the whole thread, but am guessing that you missed the irony of your OP, hun!

bogwobbit · 30/05/2007 19:22

Will be pledging this too now

DimpledThighs · 30/05/2007 19:33

bump

(who is noonar talking to?)

noonar · 30/05/2007 20:05

i'm talking to blu, about her Opening Post. It's a tad ironic that she's saying she won't post about madelaine, whilst STARTING a NEW thread about her.

Bubble99 · 30/05/2007 20:08

I did. But then I weakened and posted. Can I still grab my nork?

mumemma · 30/05/2007 23:00

Getting to the point where I'm not sure what's more difficult - boycotting or posting - some of those threads.....jesus christ.

mumemma · 30/05/2007 23:00

Nailmarks in my norks....ouch

BecauseImWorthIt · 30/05/2007 23:42

Am clasping both norks.

Am intrigued by how cold they are and how warm hands are.

May have to stay like this constantly.

Words being powered by brain, obviously, rather than fingers.

something happened, or did you clasp too tight?

Bumping to remind everyone that prawn cocktail flavoured crisps are a crime against sustenance.

They're just bad, people.

It is truly tasty, dino.

Another delicious snack option, just store cupboard ingredients, is plain HobNobs dipped in Nutella.

Very satisfying, indeed.

i love prawn cocktail crisps

Desiderata · 12/06/2007 15:26

Grown woman should never go near a bag of prawn cocktail crisps. They are an affront to civilization.
