Morning
I thought the tweet was one of three things
a) reference to his own crap dancing
b) he likes the inbetweeners
c) he thinks they have embarrassed themselves and thinks they should sit down and talk.
Personally I go for a or b
Probably b I reckon x

Tis the season to be jolly fa lla la lala lala laaa.

Over the last few days I have seen the thread at its best. Lots of well balanced discussion from our regular posters. I have really enjoyed the sensible posts, where discussion has been allowed. This includes support of Josie and ohn aswell as looking at possible flaws of the pair. I agree to a certain extent that some of the more extreme loys and muckers tweets should be ignored, however this is a place of discussion and many people enjoy that, in fact some of the now less regular posters only come on to say their own piece ( some would say to criticise our views) in times of discussion and never come on during times of banter as they obviously prefer else where to do their banter. This is fine, this is their prerogative obviously. I know some others dont do the banter aswell. My confusion is why ,if people object with everything that is posted on here unless it is in line with what they think, why do they not just ignore as sometimes it appears that they dont want to join in a discussion as their tone suggests they think we are all stupid for not agreeing with them,? Why dont they do as suggested and ignore posts that they see as critical? Now I am not suggesting that discussion stops. This is a great place for it, at its best when people like Killingtime, Pickles, Wendy, 2Judy, Miljo, andycb and a host of others have civil debates looking at both sides of the argument . I am merelt wondering why when some posters obviously think disparaging thoughts and have low opinions of our opinions do they continue to post on a thread that obviously annoys them. It certainly isnt for the discussion.
Anyway just pondering the complexities of human thinking.
Why don't you say who you mean and maybe they'll answer your question.

Neither did I, but It's nice to see him using his Twitter for fun, something many of us have hoped for. Maybe his rant last week was his last josie related tweet! We can but hope lol. Of course unless he wants to put out an apology, especially if he's seen the link to the report the woman from 100people put out.


Break over. Byeeee xx

0Perhaps as I am not actually being questioning of anyone person, just a pondering of why people who dont enjoy the posts on here post on here? It is merely my own thinking. Not a thread opinion nor an attack on anyone as I said it is everybody's prerogative to post where they like and be welcomed there.
But thank you for your pleasant reply.

We will be waiting a long time for that.
Probably lol

Did I ever tell you I'm an eternal optimist GC can't help it, don't want to change it, soooooooooo although my optimism gets battered and bruised occasionally I also have faith and hope that sanity and calm will descend again one day, that wind ups and banter will be done in good spirits rather than with a mean one, that good humour and good hearts will prevail against those who would do them harm and that people opt for a mental or DS ignore button ..........someone told me there is one, somewhere, I think :/.....if they really can't get along, that is all and that is my Christmas wish, did I tell you I love Chrstmas? No? well I dooooooooooo

I know you're being sarcastic but I wasn't trying to be unpleasant. I'm wasn't sure if you were talking about me or not so I asked.

Ah but you didnt? You did not say, Gussie are you referring to me? If you had I might have answered with a not necessarily, your posts although mainly Josie balanced (which is your prerogative)dont appear to damn people for thinking differently to you. But you do seem angry on your last couple of posts despite most of the posts last night condemning the tweets to 100%people etc. It appears there was a lot of discussion on here about it and not as much elsewhere.

I didn't want to ask so directly in case you thought I was being rude. I wasn't particularly angry about the 100% thing and I discussed my thoughts in the JAT as well.

Afternoon all, my first reaction when i saw the tweet was 'here we go again ' start nice and then turn a bit angry but when he didn't follow it up it got me to thinking, he's just letting everyone know ' i'm still here watching' just my take on it maggi x

That's horrible! I'm dreading the day when I'll have to make that decision. It upsets me even thinking about it let alone actually doing it.
