Just want to share this heart warming thing that happened to me 14:01 - Dec 13 with 11204 views | MalcolmMeatballHead | A few weeks back someone I know applied for a food bank parcel on my behalf. In this cost of living situation it's really hard for me to afford to stick to a gluten free diet as it's so expensive. Anyway, they sorted me out with some lovely gf bits for me and I was so grateful. I thought it was a one off but I just had a knock on the door, not only did they deliver another food parcel to me but they also gave me £20 worth of co op vouchers in a lovely Christmas card. They really didn't have to do it a second time, let alone give me vouchers too. Its absolutely made my day and really does make you realise there are some lovely people out there. Btw, it was Manningtree Food bank who done this for me so big up them, such lovely people |  | | |  |

More holes in this guy’s story than a net curtain but pointing that out just earns a red flasher. |  |

I hate those red flashers. You just know you've upset Uncle Phil. I get a similar feeling to when I got called to the headmasters office at school. |  |

Yes but let's not go there, we all saw how that went when I last spoke about it. Everything's on hold atm til the new year. My only focus is giving my 5 little rascals a nice Christmas. I will sort other matters out in the new year. If you genuinely asked cos you care then cheers |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

If he has free speech allowing him to serially troll the board, I have free speech allowing me to object to it, and you of course have free speech to object to my objection. Have a lovely day. |  |

He's admitted to trolling about a lottery win but much of what he's telling us is the truth. Glad to hear about the food bank parcel, really good thinking from whoever applied for that. |  |

A lot of the details of his posts seem to be correct based on a bit of research. Although gluten free just screams trolling. I would rather be nice based on a 1% chance someone is being genuine. For those who think the OP is definitely 100% a troll just ignore him. You're giving him the attention you claim he is seeking. |  |

I think your attitude of giving someone a 1% chance of being genuine is laudable but I also think that Ryorry's wariness is valid too. We have had some entertaining comedy creations on this forum and I don't think it is a good idea to label those as trolling (even though some are gullible enough not to realise the joke going on, but that always happens in comedy.) What would concern me is if requests for a handout or for contributions to be made to a suspect Just Giving page (for example) followed. Maybe there is no such thing as trolling, there are only harmless comedians who can educate us a little if we get the joke and scammers who try and take money out of our pockets for other than the charitable purposes that they claim to uphold, or scam people out of free thinking by using the web to spread untruths. |  |

Good tactic, people have short memories. You're like Bullard a couple of months before his contract is due to expire. |  |

I agree. I like MMH, he may be a troll, but even if he is, he is not doing anyone any harm and he is not offensive. So give the guy a break. |  |

That would change the situation entirely. We can only respond to what has actually happened. I understand Ryorry's anger is thinking the OP is using mental health to troll us. Maybe i'm naïve but I just can't imagine the OP thinking he's getting one over on us and that this is funny. If it's trolling, it's of a pretty poor standard isn't it? [Post edited 15 Dec 2022 10:16]

Didn't Phil post a message quite recently about accusing posters of being other people? I guess you didn't get the memo, but FYI I am not MMH. |  |

That's interesting to know. It could be helpful if you posted how this works because I can think of someone in need of a bit of help but too proud to ask themselves. |  |
