Vegans are pretty angry.

We happily eat some of their vegetables but they never repay the gesture.

If it weren't for vegans there would be problematic levels of sawdust in the biosphere.

maybe if they didn't have such big beards they might have got away with it
it's always the ones with big beards

i worry about the polo lot especially cosmic they've got big beards ... oh and rick

i thought polo-beards were aerodynamic

Daily Mail owned quite charmingly by mumsnet:

I like the way the polite and droll manner they dismantle the hack's MO. They're more effective than us lot, and nicer.

the mums didn't use the word cunt once
what wrong with them

At least I know my mum isn't on mumsnet then.

^^ Turns out we all own horse.

Dinner.

that dole woman is claiming off the state and owns a horse and is taking flying lessons
nurse holiday can tell you how much flying lessons cost

are we paying her too much money

i mean i don't own a horse

Dinner.

hmm looking forward to tucking into a bit of royal baby
i hear the legs are quite succulent when slow roasted

oh you were talking about the horse ?
whoops my bad

^ i dont care as long as we get a public holiday

I know nothing about this story but flying and horse owning ain't cheap. Neither is having 11 kids.... Really? 11....??

It is truly weird. I am loving reading it (doing one page at a time between occasional work). It is clever and witty and person after person makes their point without resorting to swearing, ranting, arrogance or patronising. Their point is infinitely better made for these strengths. And yet I feel no desire to change.

I do hope you take notes.

Fuck no !
Please dont put links to Mumsnet on here, please, I am begging you.

It's the most horrible place in the Universe.

PLEEEAEASSSSZZZZZE

Which side of the page are you talking about?

I assume the picture on the left... If you are talking about the story on the right, I don't see how it's possible to pay someone enough for raising 11 children!

When it says owns a horse are we talking race horse or pony and trap like steptoe and son?

that whole story about the english bloke in australia who went out jogging and got lost

something just isn't right about that story
when i go jogging i usually take a check list of things i need for my 30 minute - 1hr jog

training shoes - check
shorts - check
running vest - check
contact lens solution - check
kitchen sink - check
two spare tyres for the car i'm not driving - check

why would anyone take contact lens solution with them for a jog ?

i wonder if thats a planned attempt at starting the ball rolling on a new film along the lines of danny boyles' 148hrs

^ I thought that too.

He might just get itchy eyes when running in the heat, and want some saline to irrigate his peepers whilst out.

he needs to HTFU then doesn't he

Where do you fly nurse holiday? I want to start soon but Biggin hill is well expensive

Fuck no !
