I don’t believe a word of it tbh, mostly because I’d hope even the saddest of mumsnetters wouldn’t be on mumsnet whilst on holiday fsSick of the anglophobia on Mumsnet. So much racebaiting too. They're worse than Redditors. I'm sorry but this post sounds fake. Even if it's all 100% true the implication itt that this is the average British person is absolutely ridiculous. They have had so many posts like this recently.
They're a self-hating lot! Granted not everyone on there is English but a good number of them are, and every time there's a thread about England (or the UK) or the English it's full of posters saying how English people are rude/lazy/insular/generally horrible to be around. Don't forget they go red and sweaty in the sun and wear tacky clothes that just scream "English!" so they can be spotted a mile off, unlike French or Spanish women who are all classy, elegant, willowy, "put together".Sick of the anglophobia on Mumsnet.

England has its problems, as does every country, but you'd think it's the world's worst shithole based on their posts, and overall it's a decent place to live. On the other hand I've noticed Scottish posters seem to be pretty happy to be in Scotland, though sadly I've never been so can't comment personally!
I couldn’t get worked up about this.You all sound like hard work.
Well I could. I was shaking AND cryingI couldn’t get worked up about this.
I was about to agree but then realised I'm on Tattle whilst on holiday, so who am I to judgeI don’t believe a word of it tbh, mostly because I’d hope even the saddest of mumsnetters wouldn’t be on mumsnet whilst on holiday fsI mean surely not?
Omg I fell for this one, it’s currently being outed but wow, Mumsnet is full of some unhinged mother puckersSorry if already mentioned. The one about the troubling lie in relationships. Wife in America working. Husband supposed to join her but found himself in an Airbnb, then got COVID. It was 27 pages. I started reading Saturday night to get to sleep! Then some started to question if it was a troll thread. It's true, I'm now doubting all the threads. The site is beyond belief. So many dysfunctional UMC people in one place!
I fell for that one because it seemed like such a pointlessly boring thing to troll about that it didn't even occur to me that OP might be lying - you'd think I'd know better having been on there for 10+ years.Did anyone see the now deleted thread of the mother asking for advice with travelling to Australia with her 1 month old baby to see husband's critically ill mother? ...in the space on 1 hr, she'd gone from asking for advice on how to cope, to travelling to airport hotel for flight the next morning with husband and baby ( even miraculously got an upgrade to first class ) ...however en route to hotel got notification that mother in law was now going for surgery and husband was able to pop on next flight that evening and she'd join the next day!
never mind the fact of how they managed to get passport for 1 month old child who hadn't even had first lot of vaccinations and that flights would probably be booked up / or extortionate price!
I thought it's widely acknowledged 5 years left to live is Seafour on their latest bullshit attempt. Similar writing style, disdain for healthcare professionals, large cast of characters etcI started to read the ‘5 years left to live’ thread…she’s started another one about ‘why are you awake just now’ this thread has everything! She’s fallen out of bed, she’s had a migraine to end all migraines…I honestly don’t believe a word of it!
Usually lies, as these money threads are like fly paper, everyone sticks to them! (page/ad views ahoy!) I often wonder if they're deliberately planted.Has anyone seen the thread about 'help with sorting out the admin of becoming a SAHM'? I think it's one of those 'our household income is £400,000, can we afford to have a baby?' threads. I was semi-believing it until she threw in that they can't buy a house yet because her well earning husband's dad is going to give them some money but he hasn't yet (of course, they can afford a home in a stupidly expensive part of the country on just her husband's salary, but they're lucky enough that DFIL is gifting them some extra.) What do they get out of these threads? Do they want people to tell them that they're lucky so they can feel smug about their fictional circumstances?
