Probably autistic themselves but don't want to admit it!Yet, they all seem to have children with Autism (and yes, I know that being disabled / having a disabled child doesn't stop you being ableist.
One of my first jobs was in a department store at the beauty and perfume area (think Selfridges!) but anyways, up to Christmas, Valentine’s Day or Anniversaries, so many men would just come up to me and basically throw money at me to pick out something I think their girlfriend or wife would like.Men, so many men. As I serenely glided into the beauty products shop last 24th Dec I was amused to see it absolutely rammed with blokes, some looking confused, others like me simply admitting ignorance and going straight to the first available assistant to ask variations on “what will my daughter / girlfriend / wife / mum like ?”. The shop assistants were the only women in the place.
None of them would eat beans, do not know how much sugar is in the sauceOf course a tin of beans would last a year anyway with all the bird like appetites on MN.
But that only helps if they don’t have hollow-legged strapping teen boys in national age group sports (too outing to post) to feed.Of course a tin of beans would last a year anyway with all the bird like appetites on MN.
It's the whole, "well I only shop in Aldi and only buy reduced stuff while I'm there but I can't imagine eating £200 worth of food a week? Are you overweight? My Husband and I earn 6 figures a year and have 4 teen boys and we spend no more than £20 a week. A pack of lentils can make 56 different meals and I only need to eat once a day"The bollocks on MN about how you can feed a family for £30 a week or whatever do my fucking nut in. Our groceries are closer to £200 a week for our house, and that’s not being luxurious in any way- feeding a family for 3 meals a day plus snacks, drinks, lunch boxes, cleaning products, pet food, bog roll etc etc it all adds up.
If I said I spent £200 a week on MN I would het my arse handed to me, as they say, and told we could all make rich hearty meals out of a slow cooker, a chicken and a packet of lentils.
Ugh, god yes, they are tedious. It's the same old story of two adults two teenagers (strapping, with hollow legs, obvs), a dog, two cats and 43 guinea pigs surviving on £70 per week of food, all in, including lunches and alcohol. It's utter bollocks.The bollocks on MN about how you can feed a family for £30 a week or whatever do my fucking nut in.

I can believe the loo roll claims. They are so anally retentive, it is a distinct possibility.Ugh, god yes, they are tedious.

They're just like the "half a toilet roll lasts our household of four nearly a week" brigade. Again: utter bollocks.
Fair point - although there are women on there who won't use their work toilets and hold it in until they get home. Not good on a number of levels.I can believe the loo roll claims. They are so anally retentive, it is a distinct possibility.
Why would you buy alcohol? Do you have a problem with drink? Does DH?Ugh, god yes, they are tedious.

Completely unacceptable shorthand in any circumstances.just saw someone on there say ‘tommy k’ instead of ketchup and ran here immediately, that is all
My husband says this and I've often wondered if it's grounds for divorcejust saw someone on there say ‘tommy k’ instead of ketchup and ran here immediately, that is all
OP I would double check about the porn. He will be watching it and he will be hiding it. Get your ducks in a row so you can leave once you have found your evidence. Take screenshots!!!I was upset about my baby son starting nursery so I drank a bottle of wine when he was in bed while weepily watching Lucy Worsley Investigates. DH was in the house, sober, but was doing his hobby (I can’t say because it’s outing but think something with computers, although not porn) I didn’t bother cooking dinner but I did put some Aldi crisps into a bowl.
I am aware I have a huge drink problem to have done this and will be logging it with 101 anonymously so that they can alert the relevant authorities. Presumably I will never be able to drink again, except a thimbleful at Christmas for a toast? Please be kind. I earn good money and am a professional woman, some of my clothes are from Boden.
If you didn’t explain what it was I would’ve assumed Tommy K is a new term for ketamine like how Charlie is Coke and I was thinking “surely the mumsnet lot aren’t in K-holes?”just saw someone on there say ‘tommy k’ instead of ketchup and ran here immediately, that is all
I had to think what it was! I thought it was something dodgy!If you didn’t explain what it was I would’ve assumed Tommy K is a new term for ketamine like how Charlie is Coke and I was thinking “surely the mumsnet lot aren’t in K-holes?”
Cringing at my stupidity right now
LTB. Immediately.My husband says this and I've often wondered if it's grounds for divorce
