woolybanana Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 In response to my objection to his use of the slang word for a female dog to refer to TM, Albf has suggested that there are no mods any more. Could one or more please break cover or not so that we know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alittlebitfrench Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 I objected to you encouraging me to commit suicide but only Chancer came to my rescue . No mods about to save me !!! If I had succumbed to your bullying I would be toast now. LOLDo we need mods ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoddy Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 I have deleted the offensive word from the posts so that they now make even less sense than they did before.I agree with J K Rowling, herself no great fan of Theresa May who, writing on the same subject this morning said,"I’m sick of ‘liberal’ men whose mask slips every time a woman displeases them, who reach immediately for crude and humiliating words." I am also bewildered by people who come on to the forum whose only apparent intention is to cause controversy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alittlebitfrench Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Snowflake, remoaner are equally offensive. I guess it is a generational thing.I am bewildered that a site that promotes France has a forum. This forum can't sell many houses.BTW, yes I am bored today. Too hot to go out.

Hoddy Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 One may choose whether or not to be a remoaner or a snowflake.One may not make a choice about femaleness. Being a woman is not a design flaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybanana Posted June 10, 2017 Author Share Posted June 10, 2017 I have never heard that one before. Perhaps we might debate it in the light of Scripture!In the light of JK Rowling's comment, one does wonder how many women chose JC because the PM was a woman. It can't be because of his looks, surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NormanH Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 I believe that the 'b' word has suffered from its misuse by Americans to describe sexual behaviour.In Uk usage it is more akin to 'spiteful' or 'catty'.It is not a word I would apply to Mrs May in either sense.The reasons why I would not use it in the first sense should be obvious; and the second sense implies a sort of wit that she does not possess.

woolybanana Posted June 10, 2017 Author Share Posted June 10, 2017 Guess our Mods are Rockers, surfing the waves on their virtual Vespas and Lambrettas searching for sin and deviancy, then handing out retribution and eventful forgiveness (with one or two exceptions eg Ricky Rocket).

Jonzjob Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 It is with 3 immobiliers here and 2 are 'supposed' to be putting on leboncoin, but as yet they haven't so we will be doing what Mr Bean does and start kicking bottom tomorrow.We also have it on 2 U.K. selling sites as a private buy. What fascinates me is how the immos here warrent 5 or 6% !! That's something like 19,000€ if they sell our place! [:-))] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idun Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 jonzjob, I am sat here tutting.When I eventually decided to use our local immobilier, I told them that their charges were too much and we agreed a set price. Why don't you do that?I am sure that that would be of interest to prospective buyers, because it comes off the money they have.And why not put it on Le Bon Coin yourself.

Patf Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 We know a couple of people who sold their houses on LBC. On the other hand, for the Gers, there are literally thousands of properties for sale on there, some for years.We sold our last house here through an immo, and to close the sale she dropped her fee by a few thousands. But that was in 2006, a good year to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idun Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 And we sold post crisis in 2009 and still negociated with the immo..... I explained that a lower fee was better than the house sticking and no fee at all.......... still, felt like daylight robbery, but better for us and the buyer.

idun Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Well this Mods thread keeps my mind turning.If someone feels that Theresa May is, as was said a 'female dog', then I have to say that that is my feeling about Nicola Sturgeon.............. whether either are acting maliciously, vindictively, nastily, as that term would imply....... I don't know. And we all 'judge' others instinctively.In fact for a lot of things I believe that the present UK government are in general, simply 'rotten' and malicious and vindictive, just plain nasty. I cannot think of a collective noun for such conduct, any ideas anyone????And with regards for the B word...... women also have terms they use for human males.
