And tonight on the John Peel show, we've got a full session from the Foucault Addled Grievance Gerbils...

NonLinguisticRhetoricIsMyKryptonite · 25/04/2024 10:18

BB, you never fail to leave my jaw dropped! I am, indeed, a Foucault Addled Grievance Gerbil.

Brainworm · 25/04/2024 10:19

I don't want to get into Foucault either, but isn't the problem that the people that attack FWR are completely Foucault Addled Grievance Gerbils and the women on FWR are 'ahem, no amount of Foucaultian gymnastics can ever make a male into a female because that, Sir, is reality'?

They turn up to the fight with water pistols, believing they are machine guns. When their 'useless weapons' don't achieve what they thought, they claim that we are using illegal armour that's against the rules!

NonVerbalHateCrime · 25/04/2024 10:21

@Boiledbeetle You have excelled yourself there and quite made my day.

We are the Foucault Addled Grievance Gerbils
And we have something to say
It won't make any sense at all
But we'll say it anyway

I second this.

BB, if you create an image of a Foucault Addled Grievance Gerbil and put it on Baseball shirt, I will buy it.

Thing is there’s nothing more reality-inducing than becoming a mum and realising we are just another mammal in the animal kingdom.

AI can't spell, and one animal has six paws!!!!

It looks like it'll fly at your throat if you try to touch it. Definite killer rabbit of Caer Bainog vibes.

Chersfrozenface · 25/04/2024 10:58

Rodents have occasionally popped up. Or out.

Also mustelids and pinnipeds.

And I haven't forgotten that A. Scott is officially Cute Animal Keeper. Soz about the unpaid wages.

AlisonDonut · 25/04/2024 11:00

Do you think AI learnt very quickly what FAGG was and deliberately spelt it wrong?

I do hope so. That will be some tantrum going on somewhere in San Fran when they wake up.

That would certainly out you as a FWR mumsnet poster!
