What IS the fascination?

Doh! Puns are 1st rate.

I'm losing my faith in human nature here. What is the world coming to when you can't even rely on an ugg boots thread?

I wasn't being precious, it's just that I'm aware of being an Olympic standard witterer.

PS Puns a 1st rate

LOL!

Boom boom! Lol MissA

They've gone to the shoezone!

I think you have hit on it Jalima nothing really vanishes on the Internet, it’s there somewhere, hoping to be retrieved. so many footwear related comments all vying for attention!

ps where do threads go when they are deleted? Gone for ever or is there a little corner of the cloud where they all gather, grumbling about being hard-done-by?

Disappeared into the ether - on the Stairway to Heaven

What? The ugg boots thread has gone? But I was outraged on that grannies behalf for her poor misunderstood grandson and his eclectic choice of footwear. I'm so gullible .

Thought that anything/one left of centre could be immediately dismissed!
But then again lemon you've pointed out that I never agree with you so 'twas ever thus' !!

Even me? Look again at that thread, how many pro Trump comments can you actually find? Hardly any!
However, this is discussing another thread ( which you started) and what the heck have Scottish views do do with this?

Oh dear, I thought this was going to be a humorous thread but it has gone the way of so many. I'm off which is what any of us are free to do if we don't like it.

And no doubt lemon any points from a Scottish point of view are for some reason not worthy of sensible discussion since the Scottish government is left of centre therefore also must be bile-ridden.
Surely even you must be questioning some of the pro-Trump comments posted here??

I do feel the plimsolls & uniform discussions have been well "worn out" by now.
What I do like to do is give new posters the benefit of the doubt when they start a topic they are unaware of previous posts and topics discussed over the yrs and may be totally ignorant of the fact that a lot of people are bored to death with their subject choice.

Before half term is upon us
[groan] in anticipation

The zimmer frame comment wasn’t ‘nasty’ unless you are totally humourless.

Whereas left wing bile is acceptable is it mcem ?

What I find ridiculous interesting is that nasty comments about old people demonstrating with zimmer frames or rightwing comments verging on racism seem acceptable to GNHQ while if a reasonable poster questions yet another plimsoll/onesie type thread then wrists are slapped for troll-hunting.
I don't see why it's unreasonable to point out that a post might be a 'windup' !
However the latest ugg thread has now been deleted.
Why no explanation?
Too many accused of troll-hunting?
Became clear that the thread was perhaps not genuine?
Whoops - thread about a thread!
Unpardonable sin!

I hadn't realised the thread had gone.
Do we know why?

Why are we wittering about wittering on another thread when wittering about another thread is against the rules?

Well HQ have removed the thread
Whoops mustn’t talk about another thread on a thread must we ?

Aptly named N&G

Oh I've got no problem with random wittering Wilma , I'm just wondering why we get thread after thread about the same thing and why , if the posters are looking for a reaction the subject matter isn't a little more shocking ?

I'm in a bit of shock over the inclusion of cheap ugh boots at the moment;-)

Point taken.


although kitty be warned - that could be construed as t*****-hunting, I was going to suggest something similar on there but didn't want to get into trouble. We have to take it as genuine.
Apparently
