And why are they so ready to look for something to be offended about?

Lots of love

Nice quote dj I expect there'll be wide eyed disbelief that ANYONE on GN could ever say such a thing in SK and that it was probably a plant by a nasty political thread poster grin

This is such a hypocritical thread it is almost a parody

Maybe it's the hot weather too - 32° in the shade here. Nearly 40° in full sun.

What a thoroughly nice thread - it gives me such a warm fuzzy feeling reading it. You are all such lovely lovely people and I do so wish you liked me and I didn't upset you all so much. But there you go, can't win 'em all.

I don't think you 'upset' anyone, Rigby.

Rigby46 Fri 16-Jun-17 17:49:48

ww now now naughty naughty - you are verging on BEING CROSS and will be subject to severe and very learned psychoanalysis if you are not careful. Please beg forgiveness and they might let you play. Bless

Well ana if you say so - you are always right of course, of course

Ana Fri 16-Jun-17 17:53:26

I know.

How 'hilarious' you are rigby.

whitewave Fri 16-Jun-17 17:58:57

rigby I don't care because I don't want to play. I'm too busy being cross

Rigby46 Fri 16-Jun-17 18:13:44

Spoils your 'fun' though doesn't it? Maybe someone could start a thread about why some people are so flippin' hilarious.

NanaandGrampy Fri 16-Jun-17 18:18:14

I can honestly say you've never spoilt any fun I've been having Rigby ?

strangly enough, I find the political threads quiet safe, much safer than ones like this
How can one feel safe in a bear pit? That sentence speaks volumes.

Because they have a sense of humour grin and lol.

rosesarered Fri 16-Jun-17 21:19:53

Rigby .....I think you may be adding to the fun!

Anniebach Fri 16-Jun-17 21:26:17

I certaintly wouldn't start that thread, would be exhausting trying to think of something Rigsby has said which is even slightly amusing.

Rigby46 Fri 16-Jun-17 22:04:13

Ah -bless. Getting a tiny bit petty are you not? As if - I might almost say you sound a bit oh I don't know ?? Cross? ab you are such a hoot. Hope you all sleep well and have a jolly nice weekend.

Anniebach Fri 16-Jun-17 22:30:24

I knew even you were capable of saying something nice Rigsby, I was right, thank you for you good wishes

Chewbacca Fri 16-Jun-17 22:30:51

This thread was started with the sole purpose of providing a little "light relief" and was in no way meant to be an exercise in "stirring it". Believe that and you'll believe anything.
