Gah! Don't know why my biscottis aren't showing up!

MrsSnippyPants · 18/10/2018 18:13

I would say ‘get your best frocks out chaps, ready for the interviews’ but they won’t even need them. Angry

BroomOnTheRoom · 18/10/2018 18:13

Oh, ffs. BISCUITS.

I'll show myself out.

FekkoTheLawyer · 18/10/2018 18:14

Oh pur-lease. There is hi such thing as 'identify as'.

Maybe they should say 'wish you were' - but then they can't take the abuse that women get when they speak out can they? So no. Not good enough.

FekkoTheLawyer · 18/10/2018 18:15

Biscotti (snigger)

Sorry. Funny though.

PositivelyPERF · 18/10/2018 18:18

biscottis

Are you identifying as posh? 🤣

leghairdontcare · 18/10/2018 18:20

I think I'm going to apply. I can identify as a woman (cos i am one)

terfing · 18/10/2018 18:25

The web page says that they hope to provide all unsuccessful applicants with feedback... I may apply as a "proud terf" and see what feedback they give me...

It's so disappointing that what was otherwise a really positive programme. But I can't see myself standing, or "leading" as it says, in the Labour Party any more despite 20 years of hoping that one day I would do.

FekkoTheLawyer · 18/10/2018 18:30

I'm a woman. I'm lazy and quite shy.

Can I identify as a 'dynamic go-getting leader' and get a place then?

Ereshkigal · 18/10/2018 18:45

Gah! Don't know why my biscottis aren't showing up!

Nor mine! Only iPhone emojis work for me at the moment 😯

terfing · 18/10/2018 18:50

You could always have another emoji identity as a biscuit?

Budgieinaberet · 18/10/2018 18:50

WTF so you have to identify as a woman ?
I don't identify as anything

FekkoTheLawyer · 18/10/2018 18:51

🍪

FekkoTheLawyer · 18/10/2018 18:52

I have cookies

Ereshkigal · 18/10/2018 18:55

Woke cookies aren't really the same as an MN biscuit though.

OvaHere · 18/10/2018 19:02

I don't know a single female who identifies as a woman. It's just a state of being.

Artesia · 18/10/2018 19:03
Cake

It’s not cake, it’s a biscuit. And it has a Biscuit Recognition Certificate to prove it. If you disagree you are a CERB (cake exclusionary radical biscuitist)

ZuttZeVootEeVro · 18/10/2018 19:04

Grin

Is the award closed to women who don't identity as women?

Is it even possible to identify as something that you are? Can a person 'identify as' and 'be' the something at the same time?

Would anyone be happy for me to perform dentistry on them if I said I identity as a dentist?

Budgieinaberet · 18/10/2018 22:24

I might do a little experiment.
DH and I could both apply
I could have a lot of fun with this
I don't identify as female, but I guess I could trawl around in the alphabet soup and find something
DH will have to figure it out himself
Maybe a £50 bet will help focus him on doing a really good application.
To the winner the spoils !

PositivelyPERF · 19/10/2018 00:54

To the winner the spoils!

Would the spoils be ‘lesbian’ sex? 😉😄

terfing · 19/10/2018 14:17

It says you have to be a Labour member to apply though... anyone wanna take one for team?

Budgieinaberet · 19/10/2018 21:38

Perf my DH says he is prepared to have lesbian sex with me.
Terfing that's one step to far
