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

[Blu]

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!

nork clasped

think this needs bumping

hands firmly clasped on norks ladies

have posted this on another thread, i may be wrong on this, but it just seems fishy to me

there is a poster called angeltoangel who has only posted 7 times but twice started threads under the 'in the news' topic about madeleine.

my gut feeling is that this person is a journalist

both threads have been of a controvertial nature. i think mumsnet is being baited and watched

oh more than likely

Forgive me, Blu, for I have sinned.

I will clutch again and try to keep the faith.

b**ger, didn't see lk's note below, wish I'd kept me mouth shut.

Yep Im boycotting
(clasps hand, looks dreamily, yet steadfastly to over yonder)

Was doing this anyway as I find the whole argument v tedious

consider nork clutched and trouser leg rolled

dyb dyb dyb

I lapsed

and argued with the Fully Qualified Paediatrician, who thought we are all selfish thoughtless bs

forgive me too , blu, for i have sinned too

both hands clasping both norks now

oh dear

I clicked on the thread

I won't do it again

they are all nuts

bump

and another bump
it is madness out there, i tell ya

please help me take the pledge. ive been sucked in

I have clasped, and will not be letting go. Those threads are madness, full of mad people spouting madness!

I take the pledge. I need to so I can stop getting wound up and swearing at ignorant people...

Thank you for bumping, Tissy.

It's weird - a section of this thread from yesterday has gone missing!

But remember, the idea of the pledge is that by not engaging the argument fizzles out and the madness subsides.

passive resistance is sometimes the most powerful.

Keep it all out of active convos.

bl**dy hell!

Active convos are moving fast this morning!

I promised myself I wouldn't get involved again but I did

Agree the only way to stop it is not to engage.

i have too since i pledged...twice i need to go to church

She's still there spitting bile.

but if you all go an post on it, it will soon enough reach 1000 and will finally die...
