Always Friday in your world GC.

 

[goldenecitrone]

Always Friday in your world GC.

I wish it was.

 

[alfajobrob]

we all hate women apparently. All of us. All women.

I thought she was implying that we are all socially inadequate types who have no lives apart from bullying people on the internet in our respective bedrooms....I may be wrong....hilarious either way.

 

[butchersapron]

So do we.

 

[goldenecitrone]

So do we.

Both of you.

 

[Delroy Booth]

I actually can't believe you're now criticising me for not reading and responding to all 209 pages in their entirety. For fuck's sake, I work for a living.

Is that meant to be some kind of smart-arse dig at the unemployed people on here???

And btw this thread is weird and stalkery and I don't blame you for being freaked out by it's existence. I was saying that long before you turned up in person btw

You know, don't you, that this is why we can't have nice things. Like a revolution.

The gift that keeps on giving....

 

[stethoscope]

Oh my, only just caught up with this


Hi Penny!

Name the guilty delroy. Name them. You rimjob cunt.

 

[rekil]

I'm sure your hearts are in the right place

So wrong.

Too long a sacrifice can make a stone of the heart

 

[Delroy Booth]

Name the guilty delroy. Name them. You rimjob cunt.

I've been saying this for fucking ages butchers, for every piece of worthwhile bit of criticism up here there's also leery comments, snide bullying-in-numbers and a lot of other shit I don't like.

"Rimjob cunt" -

That made me laugh

 

[butchersapron]

Too long a sacrifice can make a stone of the heart

So wrong.

A terrible beauty is born

 

[rekil]

There's at least 5 pages about stuff that should go up on Firebox's walls. Ban this weird filth.

Hey, don't knock it until you've tried it...

 

[ViolentPanda]

All reduced down to so-called lefties. Expel them laura. They're fake-lefties

Just how many pages of this thread have you read Laura?

I hate it when people insinuate that I'm a leftie, it makes me feel all sleazy and disgusting, like I've just been to an SWP meeting.

 

[Delroy Booth]

Ok sure comrade I'll get right to it

 

[SpineyNorman]

They'll all be men - the women have been cowed into silence by all the macho bedroom bullies. They are, after all, very sensitive souls.

The Urban 'bedroom bullies', yesterday:

Not sleazy and disgusting in a really pleasurable sense, then?

 

[rekil]

Journalism is a little bit stalkery.

 

[TruXta]

Journalism is a little bit stalkery.

Only the good sort.

 

[butchersapron]

Watching what we be doing - in secret - little bit wtf!

 

[SpineyNorman]

Laura sharing her wisdom on this thread was a little bit communism.

 

[ViolentPanda]

This is what I meant you bastard

If people can't have a sense of humour about their work and/or their politics, they're going to burn out pretty quickly. Look what happened to "happy" Hari.

 

[butchersapron]

Laura has just asked me if i want to specimen for NS.

 

[weepiper]

All of us are communisn't

Stealing time back from the union busting new statesman boss. Impressive.

Nick Lezard goes through her laundry basket for a sniff.

Which would he pick if given a choice, though: Laundry or a cork?
