How can I stop a flounce?

Advice needed to halt the onset of a flounce

throw computer out a window.

the windows are double glazed. tried that one it just bounced back and hit me on the nose.

switch off and go and have some ovaltine. don't switch on again for another month. Et voila! La flounce c'est disparu!

Naahh, go for it and we'll mark you out of ten.

if you flounce often enough we can start to rate them and tell you which ones are better so you can hoan in on the ultimate flouncing skills

There's always somebody shouting 'jump' isn't there.

pour a pint of water over computer. hit with a hammer.

basically you have to neutralise the means of getting online.

perhaps it would be easier/cheaper if you just put modem in toilet and flushed repeatedly.

Flounce away, given current stats you will be back in 2 days, 4 hours and 29 minutes. Look forward to seeing you again on Thursday!

Ah go for it and have a bouncy, trouncy, pouncy, flouncy Fun! Fun! Fun! Fun! Fun! filled post. I hear it can be quite the mood lifter.

You mean switch to Tiscali as your DSL provider?

You can't flounce now out of the blue, you need to get abused or get involved in some major fight before calling it a day. Remember that the best ones are often when a user leaves because of some incident that happens offline - the intrigue (i.e. nosiness), subsequent speculation and gossip turn these topics into instant classics that everyone remembers.

JW's right. Now go find BadDoggie and tell him he is wrong wrong wrong and you'll be legitimately flouncing in no time!

Yep Thats like going to rehab without getting pissed first just to say your a better person for doing it.

We cannot help you to stop it if you do not explain us why would you do it.
Do not forget to provide all details...

I and S, copy and paste this, edit as required:

This is just a short note to say that I want to cancel my membership of Toytown. X and I couldn't get along, he/she couldn't deal with someone who confronted his/her *describe* behaviour. I don't give a *insert emotion*, just cancel it."

First your marriage, then Germany, and now TT. Pretty soon there's not going to be much left for you to quit.

• Time to say enough is enough and admit defeat
• So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, and good bye

One can quit life: that would be the ultimate flounce.

A flounce is only a flounce if you come back.

I think only Jebus ever pulled that one off.

@JW

Unless your Hindu or jesus christ

TT exists in the afterlife?

eurovol, the most wondeful thing about flouncung, is im not the only one

How the hell did it take you so long to type that... It said you were writing something for ages, then I got excited at the prospect of seeing it.

I just cant abide by people like you.

I just... argh. Can't.

Ugh. You are making me... arhhh. I need to... FLOUNCE.

I can't get on with you at all.

This is just a short note to say that I want to cancel my membership of Toytown. I&S and I couldn't get along, he/she couldn't deal with someone who confronted his/her delayed posting behaviour. I don't give a jibber jabbering fool about it, just cancel it.

edit: I almost forgot:

There are too many freaks here

The truth should never be a part of a proper flounce.

And Reginald Perrin

sorry. i am trying to flounce on 20 different forums. thats why it takes so long.

Did you try crossposting and crosslinking? You could get quite a great synergy.

1. Lean back.
2. Straighten your back.
3. Tighten your abdominal, backside, lower back and thigh muscles.
4. Try to relax the remainder of your muscles for a moment.
Now try rocking very slowly back and forth in a very small amount of space just using your muscles from the waist down. The pressure will continue to build for a few minutes.
5. Your urge to flounce should peak for a few moments. At this time, re-engage the muscles at the beginning of these instructions.
6. Soon, you should feel the pressure subside. At this time you can SLOWLY release the tension in the engaged muscles. If there is an odor or a sound, re-engage the muscles and try to excuse yourself to the bathroom to take care of the situation.
7. This process requires practice and experimentation.

And Richard Nixon.

Try a stealth flounce, far less embarrassing when you make your eventual return.
