I am currently sitting in front of my computer, which is in my kitchen, waiting for something to finish cooking in my microwave.
As I will be eating shortly, one might well wonder why I chose to sign in, or why I feel compelled to share this uninteresting news with you.
Well, I did not know that within 5 minutes of me signing in, my son was going to ask if I fancied something to eat, which I do... because I'm hungry. So, now I'm sitting here thinking, "Don't get too involved with the forum discussions, or at least not until after I've eaten."
"That's all well and good", you might think, "but why are you telling us all this?"
Um, I have no idea. None whatsoever.

Acknowledgments: Sparkly would like to thank all members who have contributed to this discussion.
Whilst Sparkly knows she is without a doubt completely bonkers, or at least she was when she originally created this post (and hopes she still is now and always will be), Sparkly is inclined to think she might not be alone in being bonkers, considering some of the contributions made to this discussion.
I'm not one for FOMO (fear of missing out), but being relatively new here, I have definitely got Regret at Having Missed Out (RHMO?). It also makes me happy too that I have been welcomed and acceptedwhen some of you guys have been doing this for so long ️
Thank you.
We don't want this one deleted.
The oldies are the goldies.
I have just been taking a trip down Memory Lane, and been chuckling away at the various comments.
Thanking you Ladybird, and lovely to see you back here again.
It's always a relief when people understand 'the rules' and react in the way that one hopes, which in this instance is of course to laugh. However, I do hope the laughter happened before you committed yourself to snacking on Wotsits and Irn Bru, and not during.
I love your post and the disclaimer, it made me laugh. I am eating wotsits just now and drinking Irn Bru lol Nice to see you on here again. I have had a few weeks off this site been busy.
I have absolutely no idea where my title of 'Queen' came from or why.
Completely agree that laughter is the best medicine.
Thank you for your kind wishes regarding my microwave.
Many thanks oh queen, I am blessed.
Laughter is truly the best medicine.
May your microwave forever be bountiful!
Welcome globbitz.
It's lovely to know that you already feel at home here.
Welcome to your autistic community! I am glad you feel at home on this forum, I do too!
Welcome globbitz
I was jokingly suggesting she might have been lifting it thinking of your needs
Yes! shuttleworth reference. I almost said this last night. Glad you did
Bonkers, yes indeed, I can relate to that.
I've just joined, and the first thread I read was Simon's brilliant observation concerning needless purchases (and a reference to Sparkly), and the second thread I read was this one. What a wonderful introduction, I feel at home already.
I think I will have to go and have (another) lie-down, and then come back for more, later...
That shepherds pie was stunning
But I'm halfway through me pudding
Oh I can't go back to savoury now
I loved it! :)
Indeed Steven . I felt it needed to be included, as I didn't want to contemplate what the consequences might be without it.
Mariusz, I can assure you I wasn't the customer purchasing a deep-fat fryer.
Highly resistant to rubbing
Imagine this diagnosis! 'You'll want to sit down. Have you heard of Sparkly's Thread?' 'Is it... fatal?' 'No, but you may lose your eyes'
It's good to talk
