So cheap shots about SN are acceptable are they?

Having seen how speedily you deleted a post yesterday when I called BG bigwig a pimp I am disgusted you have left those posts on the thread I have reported 3 times.

Great - some found it amusing and it was an 'in joke' . Well no. It is not acceptable.

I am more than disappointed.

Ummm.....is it me or is this all just slightly surreal? A new thread has started about another thread that was about...biscuits?

VirginMaryWearsPrimark · 10/12/2009 16:29

Well having been back on mumsnet for less than a month after a long break I'll be leaving again.

No point letting a load of words on a screen reduce me to tears.

Have fun won't you

I would ver much care for some tea, Cat. Do you have bone china? And I only drink Lapsang in November.

GetOrfMoiLand · 10/12/2009 16:30

Yes. Fucking MN biscuit obsession again.

There is something wrong with us all that we are spending valuable time on the internet in the run up to Christmas having a tewothread debate about biscuits. Bourbons as well. We're not even talking about Choco Liebniz.

MumofOscar · 10/12/2009 16:31

Oh and for the record, I have a child with SN and wasn't at all offended by the thread. I saw it as it was - just a joke.

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 10/12/2009 16:31

Virgin, all biscuits etc aside, why ARE you so upset? None of this is real.

GetOrfMoiLand · 10/12/2009 16:31

TDWP - please don't go again - it was very nice to see you again when you came back. Nothing horrible was meant or intended by any of this fgs.

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 10/12/2009 16:31

HELLO LOVELY CHICKEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WhoIsAskingSantaForCake · 10/12/2009 16:32

Hully, I think that you have mistaken me. All I meant was that I am a member of a sect of worshipers of Hully.

I never at all meant to imply that you are of the vadge.

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 10/12/2009 16:32

(Sorry that last one was to Chicken, not Virgin, just in case of further unintentional offence)

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 10/12/2009 16:33

Whois - Hmmmm

ButterySprouts · 10/12/2009 16:33

VMWP - it is hard when something is or is perceived to be offensive and then you get rounded on.

You have my sympathies actually - happened to me a while back (under a longstanding name) and yes the delightful person who said some horrible personal stuff about me being stupid etc. was a prolific and much loved poster and yes they got lots of LOLs.

Sometimes it doesn't seem worth it does it? Now i namechange alot and dip in and out - it's better for my sanity.

ChickensHaveNoTinsel · 10/12/2009 16:34

'Sup Hully

CatIsSleepy · 10/12/2009 16:35

I'm going to treat biscuits with more respect from now on

bloody dangerous things

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 10/12/2009 16:35

Where's that other cat with my tea?

ChickensHaveNoTinsel · 10/12/2009 16:37

All biscuits are treated the same by me. Stuffed in my face and washed down with gallons of tea

catinthehat2 · 10/12/2009 16:37

I'm so sorry, I started on my hipflask on the other thread, are you OK with ASDA own brand vodka? I can dip a Typhoo teabag in it if you would prefer?

Just a thought Hully, are you playing the dementia joker? it's December now and has been for the best part of ten days.

HuwEdwards · 10/12/2009 16:38

Good god, are we to have no humour about anything just in case someone, somewhere can relate to it and takes offence??

If anything it was taking the piss out of mnetters - an rightly so!

I think the general accusation of 'cheap shots about SN' is completely ridiculous.

TisTheSeasonToBeHully · 10/12/2009 16:38

Is it? dear lord. yes, perhaps vodka would be better.

CatIsSleepy · 10/12/2009 16:38

notoriously unreliable, cats

GetOrfMoiLand · 10/12/2009 16:39

I don't think we rounded on TDWP - a couple of posters said 'eh?' but she was not bullied I don't think. I would hate that - I have also seen people being harshly treated and certainly wouldn;t want to be any part of that. So i am sorry if I have offended.

I hope to hell that Ian Hislop doesn;t think to venture on MN today of all days with all the biscuits crap again.

catinthehat2 · 10/12/2009 16:39

Cheap shots? So you're on ASDA value Tequila now?

LizzyLordsALeaping · 10/12/2009 16:40

TDWP, I hope you don't leave MN again, I can why you thought some of the comments were offensive, but I honestly don't think that that was intentional, they were mocking MNers.

I think you are reading too much into it, truly.
