Anyone from the UK?

It's the flying for me. Transatlantic flights have put me off. Terrifying few trips where I thought we were goners.

I hear you. All the travel hassle is main reason I retired early

Afternoon! Productively spending my lunch break getting to grips with this site

1st ignore the bin day, biscuits and hogwarts house bombardment that they like to pile upon new posters.
It's their favourite trolling and it's how they show their cliques.

But once you navigate past that, you'll find they are generally a great bunch of lads and lasses.

Apologies for not living up to your exacting standards.

Stop trying to have a laugh everyone.

At least it's only 50 minutes or so.

I hate it, Scot. It's like being on 4chan in the noughties.

I called it out when salty and Amanda used to do it too.

It's a form of online harassment and cyber bullying.

There's absolutely no need to call anyone a bully here. Thats uncalled for.

I like to think we're being welcoming to the new people and showing them how unserious but friendly this thread can be.

I'm actually really upset you've said that

 

[Wriggle]

I've said it often in here.
It's an inside joke used to put someone on the outside.

No. I've done it myself and only to try and make people feel welcome.

I hate feeling excluded in a new thread so trying to make new posters part of things is a way to not do that

 

[orangecurious]

Don't talk about biscuits, but feel free to say how amazing you are at every opportunity and put others down.

 

[lingus60]

Seems like a little innocent probing- I may need to do a bit of recon to avoid the wrong biscuit gang though!

It's one of the friendliest threads on lit. Lots of banter and a great support network. You're most welcome here..

 

[RosewoodTulip]

Time for me to log off for the day.
Take care everyone

Happy Fridayyyyy you wee beauties

Hiya

I’m partial to choc bourbons if pressed, hopefully I’ll survive the scorn lol

bourbons are much under-rated... often getting overlooked for custard creams

I've never put anyone down.

I fessed up that I don't eat biscuits. They tolerate me.... the other threaders I mean... not biscuits!

There are no wrong biscuits. You are most very welcome.

 

[LordMorningwood]

Bin day . . today was landfill. Fortnightly. I’d missed the previous pick-up, and had to sneak around after dark putting excess bags into other people’s bins. Never thought being a grown up would be like this!

It’s definitely innocent probing. It sometimes makes it easier for new people to have something a bit silly to talk about. And there are no wrong biscuits or cake hehe
