Mumsnet #26 Fanny wafts and meany pegs, what goes on in mumsnetters heads?

[thenoodle]

I only buy it when it’s on offer but it’s great! Really chunky and rich so you don’t need a lot to get your chocolate fix

I'm going back to 2015/16 here when I worked in the uni canteen, we served rice as a daily thing. I asked one of the chefs about the risk and that, and he said you can onlty reheat rice once. So I've followed that since. If I reheat then don't eat what I've reheated, I have to get rid then I see people on tiktok making huge portions of rice and keeping it in the fridge for days which I thought was a no no?

It makes me laugh that half on them bang on about how vile tattle is but then the next minute they're begging for a code to be able to join in

But on a side note I do hate that I can't comment on any of the Tiktok threads, I have so much I want to say about someone who lives local to me

I have a working MN account. Is there anything I can do, do you need a code or something? I can't find any way to generate one.

Oh god Vicar is seriously weird, she's come out with all sorts over the years

I've been looking back at old posts, I do remember her posting years ago.
The capabilityfrowns new name just stood out to me on the bullies thread, very odd poster.
A lot of the posts are in the early hours of the morning and obviously alcohol influenced.

 

[TwooTwooTwitTwitTwoo]

I am inclined! Whats the brand?

It's H and M. I've just bought it in the next size up from Vinted. It's meant to be oversized and mine wasn't anymore . I just put in 'H and M space jumper'.

 

[sistersofpercy]

Never seen it, but as someone who mostly shops in EMP I’m going to guess Popsy isn’t my style

 

[GBNI]

I was thinking this too, the one called 'embarrassed to tell anyone in real life my major achievement'. Is that the one you mean? Because I was reading it thinking exactly the same. Most of the time people get ripped apart on there. Although I think the OP was saying they got to a bmi of 30, not 30 stone

Yes, that's the one. BMI of 30 would make more sense! I have misread it

 

[GBNI]

Most shocking part of that threads is she said she’s a 10/12 so quite slim - I mean by MN standard the OP should be getting herself on “My 600lb Life”

A size 8 snd being French is the only acceptable standard.

They're so weird though as there was someone posted about being 30 stone (I think that's what they meant) and yet people were praising them but in other threads they tear heavier people apart? Make it make sense!

Alas co-washing my straight hair is a recipe for disaster. The real lesson for these sorts of threads on mumsnet is that what works for one person might not work for everyone else and that’s okay. But of course few of them can see nuance very well!

What does it do to your hair?

 

[Wackie Jeaver]

What the flip is happening on the royals and dan wootten thread. It's pure madness!

and poof! it's gone

 

[CrimsonCountess]

What thread was that? I must have missed it. Did it start off with the child having sepsis straight away or develop into a long saga with multiple threads?

 

[maytoseptember]

I genuinely believe that most of the people on there hate their kids and only had them because society makes them feel like they have to and not because they actually wanted to.

I’d take it one further and say accidental pregnancies.

 

[AllTheGinJoints]

Oh I used to work with an Aldous. He wasn’t a toddler though…

 

[dietcokefanatic]

Boyfriend with selective mutism is going down a treat.

 

[VC10]

I can honestly say I’ve never heard of Tonys. Cadbury’s whole nut or nothing for me. Which must mean I’m obviously not middle class. Head tilt, tinkly laugh

Galaxy for me

 

[Boring Monday]

The To Be Sad No one Would Help one is a wild ride.

 

[WinterSolstice]

If only we had one of these for people. How happy many Mumsnetters would be.

Awww so cute, I’ve one hefty Chonk, some fine girls and bois and a couple of he chomnks.

 

[VC10]

I'm gonna start using that in real life

"Good morning"
"Not if you're in a refugee camp"

"My train was late this morning"
"People in refugee camps would be glad to even have trains"

"It's cold today"
"People in refugee camps are always cold"

"Shall I bring the washing in?"
"People in refugee camps don't have washing".

Hahahahaaaaa

 

[Gentlemensrelish]

What's the thread name for this one, mumsnet's search functionality is failing me when I just look up mutism.

Something like 'to not let DDs boyfriend stay if he won't speak to me'

 

[HoGi]

The one about the neighbour’s rude reaction to a gift has baffled me, why would you spend £70 on it, why not just a card or something? And she said she isn’t close to any of the neighbours, yet then said the neighbour messaged her? Bloody weird

I think they swapped numbers in case further info was needed for insurance, which I understand. But the rest of it is batshit.
