There's a few piss trolls on Mumsnet tonight.

One is a tale of a 3 year old in a car, who deliberately pissed all over the driver's seat, including the dashboard.

The other is a crazy person saying you shouldn't let kids get up in the night to pee.

I'll never understand the fetish. :sick: :sick: :sick:

Someone started a thread asking for advice about wanting to leave their marriage but feeling financially trapped. Is this a troll or has her husband found the thread 🤣

Perfect title!

Has anyone seen the ridiculousness of the thread about being vegetarian in France? Several posters claim it’s impossible to buy good meat and fresh produce in French supermarkets and one simply must go to the boulangerie, boucherie et épicière. Presumably while wearing one’s Breton top, cigarette trousers and ballet flats with a huge French market basket slung casually across one’s arm pour les legumes.

Les twateurs.

French supermarkets are the same as UK ones in my experience. You can buy premium meat or cheap stuff. Probably more choice of the better stuff at a butcher but there’s choice if you’re in a big one.

Loads of good fruit and veg in the supermarkets. Cakes are definitely better in a bakery though.

I hated the thread about a 14yo looking at violent “corn”. Hope to god it’s fake.

I'm enjoying the one about the poster who's got her knickers in a twist because the farmer, whose land her garden backs onto, has the temerity to shoot vermin (quite legally...) on his own land.

I would never do it in a million years but if you’re going to ask guests to chip in for food, you do it ahead of the dinner party.

I bet she lives in my village. Literally surrounded by farmers fields and every year without fail a newcomer comes onto the Facebook group causing chaos saying she’s seen a man with a gun walking around the village and called the police. Loads of people start panicking until someone sensible comes and asks if he was actually in the fields. “Yes”. Cue multiple people explaining they’re fully licensed and just shooting pigeons to protect the crops, there’s no issue. “Oh my god that’s disgusting/ poor innocent birds/ I’ve reported them to the rspca” 🙄 if you want the benefits of living around open fields you have to appreciate that farmers have their ways- I love ours they’re brilliant. I do have to laugh when someone less diplomatic inevitably comes along and says “just duck back off into the city you townie twit😂😂

literally just come here to laugh about this 😂 wtaf!! Imagine being so desperate to be seen as middle class that you question what to eat for breakfast…ridiculous
Imagine being so insecure (fake insecure, it's just a brag thread isn't it?) that you think other people eating their breakfast in a café give two fucks what anyone else is munching down on.

Mumsnet is the only place I know where people talk about what class they are. No one I know refers to themselves as working/middle/upper class, we’re either skint or minted. I’m the latter, obviously.
