just posting a gif
http://i48.tinypic.com/za0xj.gif
I'm sure she knew the consequences at the time of sending the email
and has decided that she's happy to deal with them. The guy sounds like a twat so good for her.
Where have the replies to this gone...
WHAT'S GOING ON IN HERE?!
I've not deleted any.
You can usually see them all from this view (irritating though it is):
http://drownedinsound.com/community/boards/social/4260958/5433963/linear
Buh!
here: http://drownedinsound.com/community/boards/social/4260958/linear
Is anyone friends with her on facebook?
Because she will probably have hidden her profile if it is her.
better than jobless fella?
yes.
Nothing beats "jobless fella"
I agree, that was pretty funny!
.
Just posting for posterity
me too
Oh dear
for her sake I hope she has something concrete on this guy otherwise she's gonna be jobless and sued for defamation, slander, libel/whatever
nah
cause then you'd have to argue that is was objectively not crap
Barclays should get this feature

"We're looking to make a high-profile appointment"
do girls "wear" condoms?
other than that, spot on.
Who's to say that she didn't do that as well?
A source said: "People are speechless."
Do you think there's any money to be made
in alerting the tabloids to her spants with marcofella?
where is Drama Llama?
I was busy!
Emergency consultation with my lawyer re: suing someone for slander and defamation of character.
You seem to be making the mistake
of appealing to _vikram's better nature.
Threadsmash?
Reminds me
of a one-off docudrama I saw on BBC Four a couple of months ago - 'Sex, the City and Me' - about the sexism and that goes on in the world of banking. The lead character is pushed out of her job when she gets pregnant and then takes her company to court.
Not knowing the title or any of the actors meant it took some googling, but here it is:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b007qyh4
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0968229/
No real point to this, just that I was reminded of it and my googley powers were stretched to their limit.
Crikey, this is really bringing them out of the woodwork
like someone said on here before
it's as if when there's a drama thread some kind of Batman signal goes up in the air and all the mythic Disers of yesteryear respond to the call
*Batsignal

wasnt mirri on about him in a thread a while back?
I think you might be right
someone clever find it
disappearing posts?
FIRST!
This was funny all three times!!!!
I genuinely feel bad for her.
So do I.
I don't know a lot about Mirri, but what I do know about her from her posts is that she often combines drinking and the internet, to fire off rather irrational and inflammatory statements about people who she doesn't like.
If this is her then it appears she has been hoist on her own petard, I guess...
haha, great assessment
It's definately her
I asked her about it on her Facebook wall, and she deleted the post straight away.
Not 100% conclusive...
...but good enough for me!
I really really hope she's ok
bad enough that she's potentially lost her job without the entire internet knowing about it.
as everyone knows, sending an email to his boss about it and everyone you work with is definitely the best way to go about it
this is amazing though, makes me miss DiS in a strange way
this actually ^ If he knew this then this is really bad
and if he was behaving like this knowing he had the infection then actually I think Mirri has got a fairly good case to claim that sending the warnings to other potential prey (the secretaries) is actually responsible.......however sending it to his bosses and him etc is not the best thing, I fear it will result in her downfall, unless, under the spotlight, the behaviour of this bloke is proven and acknowledged to be abonimable and that he needed to be stopped.
^ most boring post in this thread.
sorry, felt the need to just offer support of her position in a sober way
ur right it is pointless
whoops
I wonder if it would help her if someone gave her some dirt of barclays with which to bargain
you got any?
She has form..
http://drownedinsound.com/community/boards/social/4213581
...
It's not Curse Text.
That put me in my place, lemme tell you.
P.S. I'll use this post to register my support for Mirri (y'know if this is actually her). I fully approve of her awesome actions. Life's too short to not get fucking maggot and tell someone exactly what you think, no?
we need to get some posters made up
like http://www.firstshowing.net/img/harvey-dent-believe-350w.jpg
they could sack me in the morning for it, although I think my boss would fight them to the death for it. This was to the current bosses' boss, his chief, his chiefs PA (who is on my side) and my boss.
interesting post
hahhahaha meths!
aS SOON AS i COPIED IT i REALISED THERE WAS NOT MUCH POINT.
dont beat yourself up about it
i thought it was the best comment thus far. i actually laughed.
hang on...
i am confused by this
http://drownedinsound.com/community/boards/social/4213581#r5120155
ah, one of the many threads in which I discuss This Life
I think I might do a Martbowski style blog about it. This Scout Life.
oh scout - what do you think of High Violet?
I like it
though would prefer the omission of the demo version of Terrible Love. Some of it pretty strong, some it just nice but there are a few melodies that do remind me of older tunes. Not decided what I think about that yet. Not as good as Alligator or Boxer. Not convinced the artwork fits the band's sound.
And it's ok to answer this here because Mirri loves The National and would endorse this hijacking of the thread.
I just got sent this by all my banker mates
Apparently the whole City is talking about it
Oh dear.
I'm contemplating it
I feel a bit shitty posting good mates' e-mails to a forum they know nothing about
just cut n paste the juicy stuff
and blame bamos
^
post it. It's up to theo to delete it or not, so it'll be on his conscience, not yours.
Oh thanks.
If the email names the guy then it would have to be deleted, I think. Clearly the papers have avoided doing so for a reason.
They don't know who it is
I can't believe you're all so interested, it's literally just "Yeah that's been round here too, told my secretary not to get any ideas"
They think you have the original email she sent out forwarded to you.
That's what they're asking for. As I've already spoken to her this morning my only interest in refreshing this thread is to make sure nothing libellous suddenly appears.
wha?
You've spoken to her today?
Yeah, she's a friend.
I was checking up on her when I saw it.
Are you saying you'll take this whole thing down if something libellous appears?
Because I have a particularly saucy story about thewarn shopping for a kilt for his gibbon
READ BETWEEN THE LINES YOU FOOLS
Oh right!
I meant the link
HE KNOWS NO MORE THAN WE DO
If he's talked to her today
and he hasn't yet said this is all BS, I'm taking that to mean this is definitely accurate.
What a terrible friend you are to tacitly confirm something like that to a public messageboard.
Does 'The City' have its own version of The Darwin Awards?
Collating silly instances of silliness like this.
I'd like to think... it should.
I think buying CDOs is way ahead of this
Eh? :)
Sorry - that's an acronym too far for me...
Basically sub-prime debt
The kind of thing that brought Lehman Brothers down
^ He's here all week!
Oh right.
Well that's a serious failure of greed over common sense which has had disastrous socioeconomic consequences.
I just want to see an awards system based on 'City workers acting like total FOOLS', which have had deeply humorous personal consequences.
In other words I'm just UP FOR A LAUGH, Win-ston...
I sort of guessed that
I only posted so Royter could make a joke at my expense.
ROBERT YOU SHIT
don't make me come over there! Post it!
(please? this thread is saving me from spreadsheet hell!)
It's not even that interesting
One mate sent it on - asking another one who's a bit of a ladies' man if he'd been moonlighting at Barcap. Queue them saying "Yeah that's been round here too, she's definitely gone red"
red?
Oh, in the city you can tell when someone's been sacked
because the green light next to their name on bloomberg goes red
who wants to bet this totally isnt mirri?
bamos has already put a fiver on it
at what odds
It doesn't matter what odds.
If I've got cash on it, I'm losing cash. Murdoch sent me a personal 'Thank you' card after the Group Stages of the World Cup for keeping Skybet afloat.
Chin up
I won my first bet of the WC on Tuesday. It can still happen for you, son.
you gamble on the toilet?
Yeah I get odds on which I can evacuate quicker
bladder or bowels. Get good odds on bowels.
...
Against:
- They got her age wrong.
For:
- The company and position matches.
- She's mentioned this guy at least once before.
- This is totally something she would do - I refer you once more to the Curse Text.
Curse Text??
...
She sent me a text once uh, evaluating my character. It ran to about seven pages. I was like, whoa. I don't have it anymore but you can probably guess how it went...
'I don't have it anymore...'
yeah right
we need mr jd traynor to return
just generally
if it isan't her
then why has she not been online for coup'la days eh eh eh EHHHH
if it isn't her
THEN WHY IS IT CLEARLY HER?
THEN WHO WAS EMAIL?
Yes, reveal the email
i DOUBLE SRAE you
Fuck
I just violated my own rule of not putting in jokes that will mean nothing when this thread gets inevitably bumped. I hope it gets deleted now
all your base are belong to us
WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE JUST POST THE E-MAIL
FFS
i'm actually stopping reading this now.
its getting boring.
WOMAN SENDS EMAIL.
> wishpig
> high horse
15,000th post. Thank you and goodnight, DiS. You've been wonderful.
he can't hear you
he's in his jim jams watching "in the night garden".
I'd like to take this "meths Approach" to unshackling all news from its context. Could be fun.
"Roy Hodgson appointed new Liverpool manager" = MAN GETS JOB
"Ash cloud causes tens of thousands of flight delays" = NO PLANES
"Link found between British livestock and CJD" = DON'T EAT BEEF
Like it.
sounds about right.
i'm pretty hard to impress.
This would be far better if the guy was also a DiSser
Such as, say...
Rable rabble rabble
hope it isn't her cos that wouldn't be very nice to haapen to you.
yeah well the words hoisted and petard have already been mentioned.
Matthew 7:1
Hamlet, actually.
I didn't know this until I went to a tourist attraction in Stratford-upon-Avon called SHAKESPEARIENCE.
The main attraction? A video about why Shakespeare was great. Presented, and narrated, by Quentin Wilson. Quentin Wilson from Top Gear.
It was as incredible as it sounds.
pretty sure big willy came later....
Ah. Sorry I thought you were suggesting the "hoist on ones own petard" quote came from The Bible...
...my mistake. I just wanted to get my Shakespearience story in, truth be told. And I'm DAMN glad I did.
More aptly, is there a bible passage for "Let's hear both sides of the story before passing a judgement"? Or was that Phil Collins...
I believe Matthew 7:1 is pretty apt
being as it is
'Judge not lest ye be judged'
sorry to be really geeky
but isn't it in Henry V rather than Hamlet?
a quick google would have told me i was wrong before i posted this
still i feel a tiny bit serene in not having done much other than a couple of ^this's in this thread.
You trusted your own judgement above the wisdom of 'Top Gear's Quentin Wilson'?
For SHAME...
Wow. Thanks internet, you have delivered one again <3
Post the effing email, seriously guys.
Imagine what the sun would do if they found out that she knows 'jobless fella' do you think that would make a story? Should we get in contact? we could split the payout between us all, that's at least a freddo each!

I've seen this story now on Australian and US sites... If it is Mirri, I hope she's alright.
This doesn't contribute to the thread
consider this post a kind of grafitti, for posterity.
verbz woz ere 2k10
i've been without the internet for what feels like ages
what a day to come back to.
in all seriousness, i hope she's ok cos this is mental bad.
Is it really that bad...I don't think it is. It'll blow over.
To The Winchester until then!
This thread has made me gravely disappointed in most of you
Scurrilous, objectionable shit. Is this really how you prefer to be entertained?
calm down, Maximus
Something that isn't really funny in any way has happened
which because a well-meaning mistake has been made will almost certainly result in severe life-repercussions for a member of 'our community'
Nonetheless, all I see is delirious crowing over what by common assent is the most legendary DiS happening in a long while.
If Mirri wants to post the email, she will. Although for her own good she probably shouldn't.
I don't think DiS should be about mean-spirited or at the very most schadenfreude-tinged pile-ons. Debate and discussion is at its most vibrant, entertaining and informative when posters bring their own experiences to bear on open-ended questions. This is the beating with a stick of the horse.
Sorry to be a lame cunt. You'll all have forgotten about this soon anyway.
p.s. We clearly have different standards of malice!
if youre lame, then i am too
I completely agree with you, I said waaaaaay up there ^ that I thought this was awful. As the thread has unfolded there *has* been some comedy gold, but none of it worth it, if in fact (as looks probable) this is our M that's in the shit. I know I'm at risk of sounding like Mirri now, but...DiS often brings out the best in people and so, when oit comes to threads like this, I'm suddenly reminded of how young/ immature certain posters are. This has been a bad thread. Delete?
"Hardly super serious stuff"
No, no, you're right. Putting your job on the line to try to stop some guy doing his best to sleep his way through the office totty while carrying an STD isn't remotely serious.
I'm not suggesting people should be mourning or po-faced.
I just thought your post implied you thought it was nothing more than a bit of a laugh.
Shut the fuck you cock bamnam
With all due respect
you're presuming she wasn't making it up ... I mean, it might well be and probably is true, but none of the Mirri DiS dramas have ever had two parties agreeing on a single version of events ...
Yeah I am, but isn't that a normal standpoint to take.
The only real Mirri drama was her versus Vikram, wasn't it? I think all other 'dramaz' have just been arguments over nothing very serious or people like Pigfoot baiting her.
it's funny for a few minutes but it's not like she's involved
directly in the shenanigans more like a mate just shouting at Darren in a nightclub for titting up Tracy last week but now getting hold of Nicola.
In short Mirri sending a drunk email is on par with other such shocks as KiK needing a flatbed lorry to hoist him out of bed and Theo being spotted at a corduroy convention
There are ways and means of doing that
This wasn't the correct channel
^
and prick though he may be, warning hundreds of women that Captain Rapey is coming to get you seems a bit off.
"She's given out far worse herself"
Perhaps you can clarify that one?
There's a difference in terms of what Marcofella did, though.
I find it interesting you'd compare the two, frankly.
Ah well, whatever.
I assume the 'two year campaign of bullying' is a reference to her posts about you?
Otherwise I don't remember a campaign from her against Marcofella. You must have missed how many other people on the site seemed to delight in ripping into him too.
Her and you, well you used to give as good as you got so in my mind there was no 'persecution'.
That's not my argument at all vikram.
You've got into a LOT of spats with people. I agree that people seem to take against you first but you've got your own history of coming on here half-cut and posting abuse at people like Mirri and Emmi.
I don't agree with her posting threads like that and I told her so - about you and Marcofella. But clearly some bad shit went down with you two and domestic violence awakens a lot of strong feelings in people and Mirri's not alone there.
She was by faaaar the worse theo!
.
*sends Vikkers round dressed up as a sheikh*
tl;dr
But does anyone else have 'Mirror in the bathroom' in their head now?
I have When Will I be Famous
beacuse of in the papers... not because I want this to happen to me.
Yeah you do.
I SAID THAT YESTERDAY
but cleverer
Too slow, sucka.

Oh I meant to say last night.
When I banned MightyDramaHammer last night I discovered his/her email was instantbanemail@gmail.com - great stuff. :D
It sounds like he's spent the past two days repeatedly googling her name.
Anyone would think that he's a little obsessed...
It's all an evil plan by Mel Gibson's PR to take the heat off him.
I was ribbing you vikram, don't take it personally.
Although, after a quick skim through, there are three links posted in this thread that are the story in question. One is in the OP, the other two are by you.
Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with being the Cary Grant to her Katherine Hepburn.
Dude, don't go all brusma on us
Let's just not bother, eh?
i think the main thing to take away from this thread
is that Vikram is a paedo
Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference
I guess that goes for both of you
How old are you?
You're 33, right?
Fuck me, can people just stop with the vikram paedo bullshit, thanks?
A bit much. Especially from Bamnan. Jesus christ.
come on now
Mirri and Vikram clearly hated each other and she said plenty of hateful things on here about him so if i was in his shoes i dare say i would be pretty elated by this news and would take every opportunity to gloat. Im guessing a lot of other people would to.
I don't like this thread
apart from the bit where everybody got upset with each other and then dissected the situation endlessly, resulting in more arguments and then we all had sandwiches.
I think it was only me that had a sandwich, but it was a GOOD sandwich.
Are you an insomniac Gabrielle?
You're always awake. ALWAYS!
I have the excuse of working mental night shift hours in my public sector gravy train job, but what is YOUR excuse?
Hmmm? Well? Errrr....your silence speaks volumes!
this is going to run and run
what's the longest thread in DiStory?
Can I point out, holding a pail of water to throw over the thread as I do so
that I frequent plenty of message boards and blogs that delight in light stories, as well as Twitter and the like, and this is the only reference I've seen to this story/email?
I love you all.
the email was 'posted on the internet', eh?
this thread has been responsible for a 6-day long "mirror in the bathroom" earworm
The Beat played our town festival/carnival at the weekend - I didn't go along. Do you think I should have done? Other than Mirror in the Bathroom, are they much good?
it's ska...
which means it's wank.
Thanks.
This thread made me...
:-)
So, uh...
Was it actually her?
yes it was
By some strange twist
I understand she is now an executive director of Barclays bank as a result of sending the infamous email
I met her at Zonino in January
She's lovely! She seemed pretty chipper about the whole thing when we spoke :)
Of course she's chipper
She runs a bank now, doing quite nicely for herself
this
i asked her in the summer when i was down for my visa. admittedly we were both well on our way with guiness and i'd not eaten anyting. and bamos kept supplying me cigarettes.
