No not at all. It's so boring in here lately I've been considering a flounce just to liven it up.

Can you wait until I have finished the housework and gardening? It's be nice to watch a good flounce later on. I've got some wine and scooby snacks

I could but I've just realised that a really good flounce is nearly always a spur of the moment thing.

It's not really any good if one puts a lot of thought into it.

Scooby snacks? I thought you were a cat person?

No, I think a flounce needs to be sulked about for a while, then threats muttered, and then finally a GRAND FLOUNCE.

I don't like the cats' food so will stick to NoName corn chips.

what the hell is a flounce? Sounds like a type of fish or bird.

Similar to a flounder but not as aggressive as a scouse..

It is where one posts that one is fed up with a forum and will post no more.

A good flounce will include a list of all the perceived wrongs done to the flouncer by other forum posters, ingrained with plenty of bitter sarcasm. A very good flouncer will suggest that they are not alone, have received plenty of support "off the board", and are publicly taking the fall for the silent majority.

The old fashioned way, of when you decide that you no longer want to post on a forum you just stop posting, doesn't seem to cut the mustard these days.
