I've just be reading about the one where the husband is a ex JW & won't allow the kids to have xmas because of his childhood trauma. I've lost count of all the LTB replies

I did and I felt sorry for the poster, the rest were incredible cruel.
It doesn't matter how much her jeans cost, where she got them from or what brand they were; they were something she treated herself to and another person's animal potentially ruined them.

Had it been one of their fancy dresses from Toast it would have been a different story.

They were quite mean to her.

Just because the last fred was very close to the brim... I am currently following part 7.5 in AIBU after the previous one was locked for dissension in the ranks. Also very surprised there is nothing on there about Harry's AIDS bullshit.

Breakfast for us at Xmas was selection boxes grin.
As a kid we ate Xmas Dinner at 12 and had tea at 4.
As an adult it's still selection boxes for breakfast then dinner between 3 and 4 and picky stuff laid out for the evening.

We'll be doing a quick breakfast of crumpets (and Christmas chocolate blush) at 7/8ish, depending on what time DS wakes up, but it's generally early. Then brunch of bacon/sausage sandwiches and pastries at FILs late morning. Christmas dinner will be back at home around 4-5PM.

Today 15:30Alaimo

My husband is British, I'm not, so we mix traditions. We have a leisurely breakfast around 10. Continental breakfast with warm croissants, nice bread, boiled eggs, and a slice of stollen to finish. Then make the most of the day light by spending time outside, before coming back for cheese, oatcakes & mulled wine around 3pm. We then have a British-style Christmas dinner around 7.

WTF would a 26 year old have in common with an 18 year old?! Aside from the fact it’s morally wrong, 18 year old boys (and yes I know legally they are men) are usually still very young and immature for their years.

How is it morally wrong? If they're both mature I can't really see a problem?
I understand with the boy being eight years younger and yes they do mature slower. But the other way round?

I'm just scanning a thread that's getting all the justice warriors out.

A woman posts to say she forgot to pay a friend £120 for a concert ticket 8 years ago. The friend never said a word about not being paid back. Then, the OP gets married and receives a card to say "Since you never paid me back that £120, let's call it your wedding present so we're quits"

I think the normal reaction to this is whoa, that's passive aggressive. That's petty. Why seethe about it for 8 years when you could just have said "Oi! Where's my £120?" She waited for your WEDDING to make a point? I don't think she likes you...

Not Mumsnetters. Mumsnetters are like "You are disgusting. £120 is so much money. You should pay her back. You should pay her back NOW, with interest. Have you fucking paid her back yet?"

Anyway, it could be a load of made up bollocks, but I find it fascinating how supposed adult women think it's out of the question to ask a friend to pay you back for something. It's not that hard.

I followed this one with great interest!

Has anyone seen the thread about drag queens? MN getting their big knickers in a twist about drag queens being grotesque, scary and against womanhood.
Absolutely certain none of them have ever met or seen a drag queen in person.
If you're scared of a drag queen it shows you haven't got enough to do in your life.

TBF you get that on here a bit as well, on other threads. "Womanface" :ROFLMAO:

Makes me irrationally mad when someone posts something e.g. ‘COVID is going away’ or something and someone goes ‘do you have the original source?’ Or ‘do you have the original study?’ Like fuck off karen don’t act all high and mighty acting like you work for the WHO 🙄
Click to expand...
ha! I have done that once or twice here. Partly because the claim was just so wacky I wanted to see the source 😂 But it is obnoxious.
