I love the faux modesty of some of them
‘I love chocolate that is found on a bed of feathers that is found in the Himalayas range under the careful watch of a unicorn… I don’t know if that’s posh though’
I love the faux modesty of some of themLove a crunchie
MN are not even taking the piss with the chocolate thread.
Absolutely wanker of a poster making sure everyone knows she's 'upper class'
I don't even know what Leonidas is ....I must be scum
Come on.....is this poster taking the absolute piss?
Hmmm…. Someone’s about to get bannedI've just been on the 'Ask me anything'
What the fuck?!!!!
I am obsessed with this anecdote. Amazing. Well done on both the marathon and on eating 30 mars bars.Haha I saw that one and wondered if it’d be mentioned on here! I live for chocolate. Everyone I’ve ever met knows I love chocolate (I’ve even mentioned on here that I ate over thirty Mars bars while running a marathon one year)!
So everyone buys me chocolate all the time. When I lived in England some people would buy me rococo chocolates which are ridiculous expensive and ridiculously disgusting. Give me a good British dairy milk every hour!
I honestly cannot get over how obsessed with class they are. If you love a crunchie you’re sooooo working class. If you’re unvaccinated then you’re soooo lower class. Cheeky teenagers - will automatically knock your entire household down a class rank. Volunteer then you slip up a rank. It’s so weird and ironically totally incorrect.
I feel like joining mumsnet to make a post about feeling accomplished that I’ve probably slid down the class rankings each decade of my existence and have never felt happier! I don’t know if it stands out to me so much because I live abroad and class is non existent here or whether they are just totally obsessed? It’s so strange.
Yeah it's like some of the reddit AITA subreddit where most of them must be made up (or heavily embellished).Wow that AMA board, never seen it before - if ever there was a perfect place for trolls making up total bullshit, that must be it!
Theres one called I ghost people AMA and nobody respondedWow that AMA board, never seen it before - if ever there was a perfect place for trolls making up total bullshit, that must be it!
I just saw this term on there today and I googled it and couldn’t really see anything about it. Please don’t tell me that “woman face” is an actual term Mumsnet have created?TBF you get that on here a bit as well, on other threads. "Womanface"
I was in genuine, open-mouthed, disbelief at this thread. Some intense over reactions to a slightly milder day, any reasonable poster coming in with a level head and explainations were completely ignored. They’re all insane!Has anyone else seen that thread in active named "Is anyone else freaked out?" about the recent mild weather. 17 pages of MNers ripping the shit out of each other and fighting like cats in a bag..all about the bloody weather. That site is toxic beyond belief.
I’m torn on this because I like a good drag queen, I’m ngl, but the argument is that they’re taking the worst traits of ‘stereotypical womanhood’ and exaggerating them for their own ends, in the same way that, say, the Black and White minstrels did. Nobody in their right mind would have thought they were black men. I loved Lily Allen and Dame Edna but some of the more crude drag queens with their talk of fishy fannys and stuff like that makes me cringe.They hate drag queens because they are men, and they genuinely hate all men. Even gay ones. The whole ‘woman face’ makes me howl because have you ever seen a woman who looks like a drag Queen? No, thought not.
They used to do this a lot. There would be threads created from the POV of the family pet or from a baby or toddler and everyone would find it hilarious.I've just been on the 'Ask me anything'
What the fuck?!!!!
Ooooh Green and Blacks makes you middle class?? I always knew I was MCLove a crunchie

Wait - what do you mean Lily Allen?I’m torn on this because I like a good drag queen, I’m ngl, but the argument is that they’re taking the worst traits of ‘stereotypical womanhood’ and exaggerating them for their own ends, in the same way that, say, the Black and White minstrels did.

And to the poster upthread, no MN did not invent ‘woman face’. It’s been around for a while.
I assume Fran meant Lily Savage looolWait - what do you mean Lily Allen?
