<Ahem> So would you use a WWYD topic?

[Greensneeze]

I thought it might take some of the heat out of AIBU

that way people posting on AIBU would be choosing the more "robust" style of response

and WWYD would be a bit more neutral....

the old "MN Jury" idea fulfils two different briefs IMO - might be good to separate them

Yay or nay?

can we have a 'what would jesus do?' section too?

Oh, good thinking, Greensneeze.

Yay.

good idea
I would definitely use it

yes - presumably intended to include WWYHD ie What Would You Have Done for when we've already bolloxed the person in the M&T parking space or whatever.

I don't know really. WWYD is a very broad question and fits easily into the other topics. So WWYD about this situation with teacher, WWYD about DH coming home pissed etc.

Having said that, maybe if people justwant quick jury like answers then yeah, a separate topic fits but usually when these posts appear in 'parenting' or 'relationships' then they get a lot of responses anyway.

I think everyone knows what they're getting into on AIBU. Lets face it, even if you posted 'AIBU to be pissed of at DH for shagging my sister in my bed!'You'd still get people posting,'well I think you're being too hard on him!'

[snort] at "What would Jesus do?".

pissed off

Think it's a little too similar to AIBU.

Snorts at WWJD

WWJD could be easily misinterpreted as what would Jordan do, which might skew things a bit really.

am loving the idea of what would jordon do?

like the wwyd idea - AIBU is a scary (but fun) place!!

To replace AIBU then yes but otherwise no...we don't need a diff topic for everything

jordan would go to OK magazine about it

No, I wouldn't.
I would put it in relationships/good housekeeping/chat wherever.

Just have two strands :

Tea & Sympathy and Popcorn.

someone once told me they had a What Would Madonna Do mode, which the employed when they needed more inner confidence.

WWJD would be more limiting, I imagine. But only marginally so....

I'd love to see the WWJD topic, but it'd get a bit dull when every thread ends two lines in with "Turn the other cheek".

but he would drink alot of wine lol

WWYD and AIBU, I take it?

Yes, I;d go on both

yes, both - in the hope that WWYD would be a bit less confrontational

AIBU invites a yes/no response IMO

and YABU has become one of the most terrifying four-letter conbinations in the language

Oops, we forgot to come back to you about this, didn't we?

Sorry

Can we have an extension till tomorrow morning, please?

No i wouldn't use it

only real people can reply

it looks like a bit of a lead balloon anyway Helen
