Tunnocks Thread 2

The question asked in Thread 1 has still not been answered satisfactorily, and so the quest continues to discover which side of the fence Tunnocks are on or whether they are in fact sat atop the fence throwing Snowballls and Tea cakes at both sides.

I have no idea where the link below will send you. hopefully to the original thread and at the start, but it could be a completely different thread half way through. I'm too full of sugar to concentrate properly!

Coughs, I will be reading my poem (only one I saved all the rest for volume 2 of OUR book!) at the event, suitably disguised as a Tunnocks ninja (and that may actually turn out to be true if I can't come up with a better way of disguising who I am!)

I'm beginning to think I wasn't daft holding on to the mountain of face masks I purchased when the end of the world was imminent.

Dd is drafting a poem as I type. We are on the station platform with a man dressed in leggings and a T-shirt that is belly button level standing with his hiip cocked and hand on it. Standing near him is a man in jeans and butt covering tshirt and the contrast is striking. I'm all for wear what you want but the obvious bulge is putting me off my wotsits.

Congratulations Beetle. Will you get your head turned? Become too grand for MN😥?

It's it bigger or smaller than the wotsit? And for reference I mean the normal size wotsit not the giant wotsits

Nah! Although she might start every post with "As a well known poet......"

I only really saw the side profile which was r ouch of s visual assault but it was a very unimpressive sight.

Dd has written her masterpiece. She has requested the username GingerbreadCookieDough as she doesn't have an account on here.

"You say you’re a woman
Yet you have no idea what it’s like to be one

Would you like to be…

Harassed
Bullied
Used
Raped
Kidnapped
Shamed
Abused
Ridiculed
Mocked
Assaulted
Accused
Trafficked
Prostituted
Murdered
Imprisoned
Belittled
Intimidated
Enslaved
Silenced
Disempowered
Badgered
Underestimated
Hated.

And the list goes on.
All because we were born with a vagina.
All because we have ovaries.

All because we are women."

Awesome news about the unbridled Beetle.

CervixSampler · 04/09/2023 17:08

Dd is 14 btw. She's awesome.

GingerbreadCookieDough is very happy with that and had a big smile on her face, thank you. I think she's still writing. I've now finished reader UTDOD and have left it cover up in the train table as free advertising.

Well if she has any more before I'm done (which at current rate may be January, nope this will be a book in time for the Christmas present buying season) then I've got the name so no one else can use it so I can post them under her username!

I trust the UTDOD book in its entirety was to your satisfaction?

I quite like the 'thanks' button. Short form gratitude. It'll make me lazy.

I'll have to see this button that exists on the desktop version. It's not on the app.
