Optional, equally valid pronunciations:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamomile

Chamomile or camomile (/?kæm?mi?l/ kam-?-meel or /?kæm?ma?l/ kam-?-myl)

Eh?

Shirley – Camomile (sic) tea is more gnar and Chamomile tea is for roadies…

EDIT – wwaswas yesterday

Shirley, it should be Calm-omile

Wwaswas is much hotter than I imagined, probably due to helmet exposure.

Oh and where’s the “Angry Bus” thread, am intrigued.

I’ve never seen it spelt Chamomile before, at first I read it as Charmomile, as in telling the OP to drink some Charmomile Tea, then I thought everyone was just spelling it wrong and was quietly frothing in true STW style. 🙂

Not the best quality, but Im sure you’ll get the gist.

Oh and where’s the “Angry Bus” thread, am intrigued.

Here it is, although since my original post this thread has far exceeded the entertainment value of the angry bus thread. I almost feel ashamed to have initially equated the two.

That’s not an angry bus, it’s an angry bus passenger. I are disappoint.

Hang on, isn’t the term fatbike a bit sexist?

This thread is amazing! Gone from a simple request/question to sexism in the forum.

How did that happen? Sometimes this place drives me insane with daft topics and argumentative replies, and sometimes it is is pure gold!

Today is a gold day (as was the bus thread day)

If you have a problem, and nobody else can help AND if you can find them…

You should hire the A Team.. Or Dominic Littlewood!

I’m away to flounce into the kitchen and put the kettle on.

I was expecting buses fired from a catapult.

Chamomile tea?

Thing is, OP, your first post was lacking in manners and respect and that’s why you’ve failed to get any in return.

Oh yes please, perhaps a Rivita or Galaxy Caramel to go with it.. Or is that woman’s food?

Oops! There go the sexist pigs again! Sorry petal.

The evening shift (bloody part timers) are ruining it again 🙄

At last! Thank you, Wallop 🙂

Cadbury’s Caramel is for bunnies.

Sexy female rabbits…. the dream vs the reality.

2nd pic there ^^ New Nomad?

You wait ages for a thread that causes proper laugh out loud with additional tears, and two come along at once!
(This one and the blurry photo one). My faith in STW has been restored!

Blatant use of sexist language there. Foul!
Thats bollocks I dont care about that. I am just pointing out that it is not particulalry welcoming here (with exceptions) and some people are quite sexist.

🙄
Funny, most people seem to get along just fine, perhaps it’s only those with an exaggerated sense of entitlement.
And fwiw, at no point, either in this thread, or any other where you’ve posted, has it been in any way obvious that you’re female. There are other posters who I know are, because comments they’ve made in the course of conversation; in your case, I would suggest you re-arrange these words into a well-known phrase or saying:
molehill, a, making, of, mountain, out, a.

..and for balanced sexism to ensure make sure no one in this thread s offended…

Speaking as a woman I’m not sure that the jokey second picture makes up for the sexist first one…

Calm down dear…

Edit – does this tickle your fancy?

Best. Thread. For ages. Have been chuckling in the bath for the last twenty minutes 😆 Sadly, I suspect an OP flounce has occurred.

(For clarity, there’s nothing gender specific, oblique or otherwise about a sense of humour failure)

I don’t recall being rude on this thread other than arguably “get over yourself” which in hindsight was probably excessive. Sorry about that.

I don’t think it was rude, it was an honest, if somewhat direct suggestion, that probably should have been heeded.

In all fairness to the OP she was the one who posted about the Cannondale Triggers so from my perspective her threads have given me a cheap bike and with this thread some cheap laughs. Anyone who can do that is alright by me.

And Cougar, you’re not rude. If anything I think you’re quite lovely. Drac, on the other hand, scares me a little. Sorry, Drac. 😳

Boo!

Which one is Drac, and which one is Cougar?

Which one would you like me to be?

I’d rather not think about it

Dear OP,
Please read this A Message From Tom
It may help to put your “problems” with multiple tabs, Moderators and sexism on the forum into their correct place in the order of things.

Anyway look it’s not a major problem,

Yes, we know.

The mods better damn well change something because one person wants it, or ELSE you’re maybe going to stop your subs, AAAARGH! Question – how valuable exactly do you think your capably fast opinions are to us all?

Is this were the bandwagon stops so I can jump on?

…only if you sit on the top deck.

I think this has run its course, so I’m going to close the file before today’s peanut gallery wake up.
