Part 5 of (mostly ๐Ÿ˜‚) drama-free and positive threads, delving into all things Meghan and Harry. Whether itโ€™s the causes they support, their business initiatives, or Meghanโ€™s fashion choices (Harryโ€™s too, on occasion ๐Ÿ˜‰), thereโ€™s plenty to discuss. Just a pro-tip - that there may be use of MLE terms and discussions of dupes - you might want to exit stage left if these things offend. Hat tip to @queentim for the original inspiration.

I looked it up and itโ€™s damn funny! (And I donโ€™t know who anyone is supposed to know what nationality we are here, anyway.)

jeffgoldblum · 12/05/2024 16:03

I too googled @AliceOlive !
Very funny and seems to be everywhere!
I'm obviously too sheltered in my knowledge of sm !

The yellow dress hits the spot at last, sometimes more material looks better on the very thin and it can be cooler. Harry starting to look cross again.

AliceOlive · 12/05/2024 16:08

Iโ€™d like to note that I believe my deleted posts were simply defending another poster from what I found unpleasant replies. That is a long tradition here. I never saw posts doing that removed before.

jeffgoldblum · 12/05/2024 16:09

๐Ÿ‘@AliceOlive I saw them , not sure why they went ?

Yes that is rather confusing. I know some people have revealed heritage in the DNA chats. I have no idea who is what or whether their son in law is this or that. It can all be made up anyway. It's strange to be accused of something as if I should somehow know.

Thanks, Alice, that was good of you to stick up for me against that needlessly rude and goady post( I have seen you stick up for other posters too) and I am really sorry you ended up deleted.๐Ÿ’

ToCoffeeOrNorNotToCoffee · 12/05/2024 16:15

Why's Harry cross?

AliceOlive · 12/05/2024 16:16

I donโ€™t mind deletions since the posts I was referencing were also removed. But the whole โ€œthis will go down on your permanent recordโ€ vibe is concerning.

Also, some posters like to come along later and say you obviously said something racist or misogynist or against guidelines when itโ€™s not true is frustrating.

It's just an anonymous discussion forum it's not that deep or serious. Who cares if posts are deleted or if someone comes along and labels you, again it's an anonymous forum!!! It's a virtual place it's not real life. Chill out

I have explained in the past that many women find MN a life line. Itโ€™s a resource, in numerous ways. So when I see posters, including myself, targeted to be cut off, I take it seriously.

You havenโ€™t been posting here as long, perhaps, so maybe itโ€™s nothing to you.

AliceOlive · 12/05/2024 16:26

@LumiB Itโ€™s off topic but I encourage you to spend some time reading here, not just on RFF and youโ€™ll see that we all have different life circumstances. There are people who would be completely isolated if not for forums like this one. You might be a little more thoughtful about telling women to chill out or that itโ€™s not real life.

The Internet is a vasy place it's not the only forum you can join or start your own if it's such a lifeline then you can control who is on it ๐Ÿ˜‰

Thanks Dear. Iโ€™ll consider that.

They wanted half in half out and to major on Africa but the late Queen said no. Now you can see what an enormous assett they would have been for the institution and the Commonwealth.

AliceOlive · 12/05/2024 16:29

Whatโ€™s vasy? Scottish?

cookienomstar · 12/05/2024 16:32

I'm so late but thanks @skullbabe !@skullbabe !!

I've been loving Meghan abd Harry's outfits this trip!

Be back when I have more time!

I used to think theyโ€™d be assets but now along with many others I think they are divisive, lacking in self-awareness, and quite awkward. If theyโ€™d only take a little advice occasionally they could have be fantastic!

I'm not so sure.

Don't think so @AliceOlive , I think she meant vast !

Oh she was inviting me to leave I guess.

Why anyone thinks the Royal family would have needed or wanted a couple looking only to burnish their own reputations while also lining their own pockets (oh, I beg your pardon, โ€œearn an independent incomeโ€) is beyond me. Itโ€™s the slipperiest slope possible to being in Prince Andrew landโ€ฆ

You may need to tell this to the many Sussex supporters who have had whole threads removed from the forum because they didnโ€™t like the anonymous discussions on them, many of them containing a lot of humour and chit chat and nothing remotely sinister. Iโ€™m generally not in favour of deleting posts, but you will find that most deletions are one sided, they certainly have been in recent weeks, so you end up in a situation where more chilled posters will wonder why bother exercising equanimity when itโ€™s a one sided attitude.

Considering that it isn't real life on here, I must say that it has given me quite a few smiles over the months, not to say a good many true facts.
