Since when has a worm been a genital?

I was discussing the NE Lambton Worm.

I didn’t realise this had turned into a pity party.

TRAs twisting people's words as usual.

Thanks @EmbarrassingAdmissions and @WouldBeGood yes I mean the incident at the horseshoe. As I said I worked there and always incredibly welcoming to one and all. It saddens me to think they have an agenda.

vivariumvivariumsvivaria · 01/09/2021 20:58

IsurviveonCoffeeandWinein2021 Agree about the Horseshoe.

It's a melting pot of a pub. And has a long history of being an accepting place.

Even to women.

PurgatoryOfPotholes · 01/09/2021 21:07

I incline to the same point of view as AnyOldPrion.

Someone realised that the bartender at Doctors ( not the owner, lol) did themselves no favours with their impetuous tweeting of obscenities.

It's fascinating who gets kicked out of bars in Scotland now, and who doesn't. For example...

I think bodycams may be the way forward.

Up until 1982, it was legal for pubs to refuse to serve unaccompanied women in England. Seems we're going back there.

ArabellaScott · 01/09/2021 21:08

Horseshoe used to be a great pub. It really is such a crying shame to see this incident used like this.

Even IF someone was refused because they were judged to have had too much to drink, it's hardly headline news, is it? Happens every week in most city centre pubs, I'd guess. I just cannot imagine a barperson feeling the need to write up a whole long moany post about it, and the Union subsequently sharing it seems totally off.

No

Either it happens all the time in which case why single this particular case out

Or it never happens and thats why this case is so unusual, in which case it would obviously be singled out….of course that would also be an outright lie 🤔

I hadn't noticed until this thread and that ridiculous tweet, but thinking back to my most recent purchases, I have been buying a lot of purple and green things lately as well. But they do go so nicely together. Always reminds me of springtime and Easter.

EsmaCannonball · 01/09/2021 22:19

Waiting for Laurie Penny to come along and tell these people not to look at the ribbons or not to look at the t-shirts.

PickAChew · 01/09/2021 22:21

I was thinking of making myself some new jammies so have, today, bought green Jersey for the bottoms and lilac and white stripes for the top.

Queenoftheashes · 01/09/2021 22:40

Thanks @SnoopyLights - purchased!

Rhannion · 01/09/2021 23:14

@Queenoftheashes

Thanks *@SnoopyLights* - purchased!
She has lovely things on there and a percentage of each sale goes to a charity that works for female victims of violence. Plus her “ I Stand With Her” t shirt is raising money for women in Afghanistan, Birdy is a fantastic woman!

To be fair that would, on this occasion, be fairly good advice, but we know it doesn't really work like that.

I'm only here for the worm references Grin

TrainedByCats · 02/09/2021 10:33

Have Greene King provided any update on their ‘investigation’/apology? Or are they another business to add to the boycott list?

SnoopyLights · 02/09/2021 10:34

It's cold this morning and so when I got up I wore my dressing gown. It's purple. I asked DH if he was intimidated by it and he said yes. I said is it because it's purple and he said yes. I asked him if he was scared of me in it and he said always so I said "after all this time?" and he didn't get the reference. Grin

He peaked a long time ago, mostly due to my talking about the issue a lot, so he wasn't surprised when I showed him the purple shirt tweet but he did roll his eyes at it and wonder what's wrong with people.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 02/09/2021 10:51

I still want a green, purple and white cloth lanyard (but a subtle one because I also need an income).

KittenKong · 02/09/2021 10:55

Mine is all beads and I got it on eBay. It’s quite pretty.

KittenKong · 02/09/2021 10:57

They also have stripey ones.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 02/09/2021 11:00

Thank you KK - I have seen this on Etsy but I really want a cloth one (I had a whole thread on it and everyone agreed that although there were beaded ones and ones with adult human female written on them there were no simple cloth ones).

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 02/09/2021 11:02

PickAChew · 02/09/2021 11:03

Someone needs to design one with violets on a green and white ground.

KittenKong · 02/09/2021 11:25

Birdie! Birdie - she needs to make one to match her ‘literal violets’ T-shirt’s!
