"You're Dumped"


*Bob*

Recommended Posts

One of my 'early girlfriends' dumped me - on the grounds that she wanted to go out with someone who looked more like the lead singer from Echo & The Bunnymen.


It seemed like poor reasoning at the time, but - thinking back - it was near-genuis. I had no comeback.



Has anyone else been dumped, or dumped anyone under vaguely amusing circumstances?

I bet that was her. The cold-hearted bitch.

I should have dumped my first proper boyfriend on the grounds that he looked like a cross between andrew eldrich (sp?) from that dodgy goth band, 'the sisters of mercy' and Bono (in the 80s), from that very famous irish band.


I should have dumped my second boyfriend on the grounds that he looked like michael portillo (according to my mum). :-$


Edited : for TMI :-S

I have dumped someone on the grounds of not enough sex (not so unusual) but he rather stole my thunder the following month when he came out and moved to Brighton.


I would have gone out with Ian McCulloch (on the basis that Morrissey and I never made it up the aisle), except you know, I was at school at the time. I don't half envy her, Jah.

I've had a couple...


"We get on really well, and I think you're really attractive, and that's why I can't go out with you..." Eh??? I thought that was the entire point (?)


"You're allergic to things and drink strange tea" - 10 years later he declared his undying love. I didn't take him up on it...

Was that me? I used a near identical line once. There was supposed to be a "but..." near the end, but I stopped short.

LOL - I have no idea! Did you deliver this line in a bar on the south bank and then get back together with an old girlfried?

I am not sure I even classify this as being dumped but I got a text from a fella I went on 2 dates with

"whenever i feel a girl really likes me I get scared and run away"

my reply

"does it help if you know I think you're a bit of a knob with hobbit feet"


I never heard from him again. sighhhhhh.

    • I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me. 
    • If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?
    • I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing. 
    • interesting read.  We're thinking about the same things for our kids in primary school as well. One thing I don't understand about Charter ED is whether they stream / set kids based on ability.  I got the impression from an open evening that it is done a little as possible. All i could find on-line was this undated letter - https://www.chartereastdulwich.org.uk/_site/data/files/users/18/documents/9473A8A3547CCCD39DBC4A55CA1678DC.pdf?pid=167 For the most part, we believe in mixed ability teaching and do not stream in Year 7 or Year 8. The only exceptions to this are that we have a small nurture class for Maths. This is a provision for students who scored lower than 85 in their SATS exams and is designed to support them to acquire the skills to access the learning in mainstream class. We do not have nurture classes for any other subjects. We take a more streamed - though not a setted - approach in Maths and Science from Year 9 onwards. though unsure if this is still accurate reflection of policy, and unsure of difference between streaming and setting.
