kept your outraged and offended fingers away from the complaint button, all this silly sweary name shenanigans would have been tomorrows chip-paper by now.........

As it is, there is now going to be ream after ream of this daft arguing about fuck-all

it could rival Moldie-Gate you know, and that is not a ^good6 thing

(To DisgustedFromTunbridge) Ooh, I say!

MrsMerryHenry · 30/09/2009 19:40

I honestly don't understand why some people need swear words, actually. Why use profanities when there are such perfectly good alternatives such as 'blimey o'reilly!'; 'good giffords!'; 'gosh me oh my days!'; 'bunting beans!' and 'jolly roger!'?

(bunting bewildered over here, what what?)

halfcut · 30/09/2009 19:44

I like a nice flipping heck myself

MrsMerryHenry · 30/09/2009 19:51

My ears are bleeding, halfcut. Please leave your profanities at the door.

halfcut · 30/09/2009 19:54

If I'm really annoyed I've been known to say crikey so there

AitchTwoToTangOh · 30/09/2009 19:55

"nice words there lovey, but I am of the opinion that if there is a rule to be made then it should be the same right across the board. so, nobody allowed naughty names, no swearing at all, all bad words must be bleeped out".

why?

MrsMerryHenry · 30/09/2009 19:56

Crikey, halfcut, that must be when you're really ranked orf!

PMSL at your laptop comment on the 'marriage' thread, by the way!

halfcut · 30/09/2009 19:59

Felt a bit bad about that comment after..was a bit flippant true tho

Monkeytrews · 30/09/2009 20:44

Sometime only a good swear word will do. And sometimes people who will be offended by such things just need to have their chains yanked!

AitchTwoToTangOh · 30/09/2009 20:52

oh piss off, you pompous, hysterical arseholes.

No-one, other than anyfucker, has even remotely proposed banning swearing on MN. Does everyone understand that? there is no thin end of the wedge, any more than the 'no personal attacks' guideline is an attack on your right to attack personally.

all MNHQ has done is reminded everyone of a pre-existing guideline and and encouraged people who have swearing in their names to maybe change a consonant or two. and cuntwhacker was a fucking awful name in any case.

Monkeytrews · 30/09/2009 20:58

ew handbag!

morningpaper · 30/09/2009 21:05

never mind this, I've been doing CRAFT

craft

now if that doesn't warrant a swear-word or two, I don't know what does

SoupDragon · 30/09/2009 21:06

Again??? Have you been crafting cunts foofs out of shredded paper?

morningpaper · 30/09/2009 21:07

oh no my little scaly friend

I have been making fairy stationery kits

LadyFoof · 30/09/2009 21:08

Noone has commented on my Look At Me name yet! Beeyotches!

AitchTwoToTangOh · 30/09/2009 21:08

you love craft, MP, everyone knows it. i don't know why you persist in this fiction that it is somehow not you... it's very you, craft. so go and stick that in yer scrapbook, you craft-loving tosspot. etc.

Monkeytrews · 30/09/2009 21:08

You doing craft?

Do they come with batteries?

SoupDragon · 30/09/2009 21:09

Is "fairy stationery kits" a code name for sanitary protection?

Monkeytrews · 30/09/2009 21:09

oh for a typo MP. Then we would all inquire how one does keep a fairy stationary
