Mumsnet #64 New thread. NOW

[Archduchess of Luxembourg]

It's a mix of both which is confusing. Americans tend to (typically) say they 'got' something, rather than 'had' - 'i got surgery on my legs'; then going to a deli (which tend to be more specialist type places here i.e. Italian delis etc), buying 'candy'.

Im also confused about an apparent 15 year old going to Mumsnet...

The line ‘have they taken alcohol OP?’ had me howling!

I hope the answer was: "Why yes. Yes, they have"

We have unlocked a new level of “won’t answer the door” and a poster has died rather than have an awkward conversation.

I know this is late(-ish), but I DO love this thread title.

That doesn't read like a 15 year old and it sounds like it's written by an American.

It’s sounds like the opening chapter of terrible young adult fiction. The girl with the sunken eyes is obviously one of the undead. 🥱

cracking thread title there - “sadly she ghosted me, then died”.

Thank you for the new thread
I saw the thread about the picture of the DH at the prostitutes door . It's got to be a troll but a really funny one

I went a bit tonto posting on that one this morning some disgusting nasty remarks to the OP. Absolute bullies. I remembered why I can’t go on there very often as I get so wound up by some of these nasty indivifuals

think I may get banned as I repeated one posters comment of

“Well go and duck your husband and get your marriage back on track. Ikea do really big rugs, might be useful for sweeping it all under”

on her thread about whether she should paint a basket been deleted

I rarely laugh out loud online but that line really tickled me and I did giggle!

I'm going to end all of my stories and anecdotes with 'Sadly she ghosted me and then died' from now on.

It’s be even more awesome of it was the other way round - ‘sadly, she died, then ghosted me’.

Afternoon tea is way too much food

Afternoon tea is very filling

Lots of the afternoon tea should be boxes up and taken home

I had afternoon tea once. I was rather underwhelmed by it

Given it was getting dark at 6pm, I “pondered” the OP was an Australian or NZ (adult)?

 

[AManWalksDownTheStreet]

There’s a twin pregnancy thread going where OP has 3 kids already and didn’t want more, but was sloppy about contraception because she thought she was ‘past it’ in her 30s. Then she followed up by saying her none of her existing kids are her current partner’s.

I’m thinking it’s Sunday afternoon rage bait.

 

[CrimsonCountess]

OP - I’m flying economy and don’t get to choose my seat, even during online check-in

First reply - why don’t you just choose your seat when you check-in

They really are thick as duck, aren't they?

 

[AlphaBetaDeux]

Having a DSixFigure job means there’s no time to spend reading the frippery (or the actual post). Are you a DPov? <Head tilt>

Multiple pregnancies and multiple partners = bull 99% of the time.

That being said, I do know a girl who has 6 x 6, no twins though.
