Well, I'm glad you are able to laugh at it all....especially because that is all you can do....I love to hear about gossip that goes sour though, like showing the dumbasses the truth or making them feel stupid....give them time...it'll happen!
But until then, I look forward to the updates! Thanks for the laughs though!:-4

I live in a place just like you do Fuzzy, 3 small townships that run together. You know the ones that'll spread the gossip fastest and the ones that will screw it up the most. :wah: Anyways, I know a couple in their 50s that are dating. For the fun of it, the guy told another guy, "Linda is pregnant but don't tell anyone" knowing darn well he would. It didn't take 15 minutes to get through the bar. Now we all walk up to her and congratulate her or ask if she should be drinking in her "condition". :wah:

Anyone here who lives in a small town would understand "Gossip" and small town mentality. Now over the years whilst being married it was said that my tally was 13 men that I'd apparently had sex with ................WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOO
You know you have been a bit slack there ,should have been way more than that:wah:
Anyway now I'm seperated the gossip has changed slightly. Only so ever slightly. Firstly i'm accused of chatting up some kid in a bar. (but i've been into that before on here ) Two weeks ago I found out that I have a 'toy boy':p It must be true because people saw me walking with him, and he was on my front porch having a beer..........................Now i dont' want to spoil the party and tell them that it was my twenty year old son who'd come down to visit. But just the other day someone had gone up to Pete (during a fatal car accident scene I might add) to tell him they'd heard he was stalking me.:rolleyes: Well my response to that was "then you should give it up cause you're not very good at it are you, sitting in my lounge watching telly with the kids is not very good stalking.. ":wah: (oh and just to back that statement up I've made a deal with my husband that as long as he keeps seeing the psych I'll continue being nice and talk to him.)
As more gossip comes to light I shall pass it on to you guys for a laugh .
If it wasn't so funny you would cry,I know exactly what you mean the gossip mill is fantastic.

I have always lived close to the same town ,since 1st grade till now. I know exactly what you mean about the stories.
When I was divorced back in the late 70's and early 80's ,
I use to go to town a couple of times a month just to hear what I had been doing and who I had done it with and generally I had done all this 'last weekend ' or 'last nite',,, I never told the the person talking I had not been in town for 2 weeks or more. I would just grin and ask for details..:wah:

Hello Mags,
I live in a small town but luckily it's a seasonal area. When tourist season is over all go home. Then I just have to deal with the local wackos:p
This is hysterical, I love it...hope you have it framed:wah:
Fuzzy is a lady is she?? My apologies. I should have guessed really by the bitchy,back biting, jealous, menopausal drivel. I bet she can't park her car properly either, or do a hand brake turn.

I grew up in a small town. When I was around 12, my mother decided to learn to drive. My dad took her to the high school parking lot to practice. Something happened, they think the motor mounts broke, but she wrecked into the high school. Going back to school was a nightmare. The two stories that stick in my mind still are 1. She was drunk (the woman didn't touch alcohol ever due to her alcoholic dad) and 2. She was showing off for some young guys. (With my dad in the car? Also, noone was around and she never showed off).

Small town living does have it's stories. My street alone is a major hotbed of gossip and but it's worse up at the kids school. Don't want to be on the butt end of somebody's wrath.

Years ago when I was young and single and in the Police I had 'affairs' with all the blokes at the station. Don't remember any of them but I hope I had a good time!!!;)
And on one occasion I apparantly had sex with a sailor at a Naval College on the snooker table in the Petty Officers Mess. Wrong on two counts 1 - there was no snooker table and 2 - it was in his room!!!!:sneaky::sneaky:

You know, it might put a bad name to the town etc. .......always smile at that.
Probably because they have lived there a thousand years & are "up standing" members of the community:-5:rolleyes:Not.
You are right about all the mills the gossip one never stops,works behind backs,secret places & on & on it goes.Friends you thought would stick by suddenly disappear,I see it happen here all the time.
The more the gossip spreads bits are added.like the game .chinese whispers.
I do hope you give them something to gossip about one day,doesn't have to be a major thing.Just something to keep them happy till the next poor b u gg a comes along.
I know you can handle the crap you are a stong person:-6:-6

"gossip mill' I like that. It's funny how all the other mills go out of business but that one keeps rolling along.:wah:
Scholle I'm so sorry . It's a worry isn't it? hey maybe you were sleep walking and don't remember it ?:wah: wouldn't that be funny ? cause if you did say that people would nod their heads simpathetically and totally understand, and you would be exonerated. The more outrageous the excuse the more sympathetic people become :wah::wah: I've actually walked away from a situation like this shaking my head and thinking " we're not in Kansas anymore toto"
I remember a good friend telling me (this is why I don't actually have good friends) that a woman i knew around town played up on her husband whilst away ..... called "pig on a spit". I'll spare you the details. But I remember standing there and asking him, " why are you telling me this? that's so grosse why do I need to know this ?".......then I preceded to tell him to get a life.:rolleyes:
Hmmm the gossip about me worsened after that ...........
That would be a heck of a walk to take in my sleep,,,I live 15 miles West of town,,,:wah:
