Blood for the Baron!

It gets laughed off T-shot to be honest if they make me redundant in July I would be relieved.

Wankers.
This is harassment and if they are colleagues you should report them.
I used to get stick from people but when I ignored them they soon get bored.
I used to hide the fact that I collect toys and comics but now I don't care who knows.
Gotta say tho, if someone called me a paedo id go fukin Boogaloo.

I think this is why I'm enjoying working at a museum. At least everyone appreciates a collector, no matter what their interest.

It's a real shame that there are so many idiots in the world, who think it's big or fun to spoil others enjoyment. The fact that the first thought that came into their heads was paedophile, suggests more about their own interests.

Also you need to remember that most if not all of your work c*nts sorry colleagues probably have no real lives and a slightly fat handed missus, all in all I'd go to work if anything is said respond with 'yes I collect toys but it's better than collecting the money the tramps pay to f*ck your parents up the ass you f*cking failed army experiments' with a bit of luck one of them will cry.

Lol, that's how to handle it. As my Dad says, speak softly and carry a big stick. I've never argued with any friends, but then I am picky who I do friend. I'm in for quality, not quantity. Besides I don't get on that often unless I need to talk to someone.

Have you considered DH's option? It works.

I love DHs option! Or Eddies!

I personally keep Facebook totally separate from work. My secretaries and team have no need to know what I get up to when I'm not there with them, unless they cross the line to being friends.

Agreed, and lock the bastard down so no one can find you unless you want them to.

My new facebook profile is Andy John I have sent some friend requests out so far.

I am the one that makes the most jokes about me being a nerd, so it's pointless making jokes. They won't hit me. And when people start becoming rude I'll be even more rude. For example, when your colleagues would ask why you left FaceBook, I'd reply: "I'm making plans to abduct your kids and I don't want you to know them in advance. Little Polly is about to become a woman."

Next roll call is at Red Laser's work: "Blood for the Paedo!"

yeah you really need to report the hassle you had

being called a paedo on a public page is libellous or slanderous (forget which and can't be arsed to google it but it probably would have been quicker than typing the explanation) so explain to your HR that if the complaint is not taken seriously you will be taking legal action against the firm as well as individuals as they are allowing it to happen and as such are taking part in it.

also report it to facebook and have them blocked/removed for the same reasons I have explained above.

hit 'em where it hurts they're only doing it because you allow them to and they'll soon back off under the threat of legal action.

even a call to the plod and get them to visit to have a word will be enough to scare them off I bet

DH's example is fine but do it legally and I promise the bruises will last MUCH longer

I mean after all you ARE a ninja...
