They really swallow any sort of rubbish on there. A parking thread has them foaming at the mouth and salivating for details.

It's one of the many overdone things on Mumsnet. It wasn't funny day one, and it never will be.
Excellent diagram btw, @Serene Serena could you write a note and leave it on the car.

And do a dozen updates every hour.
just caught this, dying here lol, it's one of us!
This one made me roll my eyes. A poster is having a house built/extended whatevs and the architect has put the boot room at the front so itās external door is just along from the front door. She wants to know if this will look odd to have two doors close together. The classic MN comment is that she should be careful if they have a gun cupboard in the boot room as it could be seen through a front window. . How the other half lives epitomised right there.

I havenāt been on it for years but there were some good threads like the cube of poo and pandabearās driving one. There was the lovely lady whose son died after waking up from an operation and eating some cake 
.
.Imagine fantasising about boot rooms and gun cabinets from your tower block in Elephant and Castle. Sad
My parents had Money, their friends had Money, My friends from school had Money. I've not once seen guns kept in the boot room (We always knew it as the tack room but I assume that's what they mean). All the gun cabinets I ever saw were upstairs in an office or a small room up by attics where dangerous tit in general was kept. They haven't got a clue. It's pathetic

I had a friend once who made special gun cabinets - beautiful things, if you ignored the contents. He sold them for absolute megabucks. And yes, boot room was always the tack room!!
Lol Iāve just seen the destination birthday one. Half of the comments are āyour friendās a twit for having a destination birthday/expecting everyone to payā. Does no-one there have any friends? Mine must all be twats then because about 4 want to organise a destination birthday and weāve just been to one last month And every holiday Iāve been on, the cost is always split! Who tf is so loaded that they can afford to pay for all their friends to go on holiday? What planet are these people on!
And every holiday Iāve been on, the cost is always split! Who tf is so loaded that they can afford to pay for all their friends to go on holiday? What planet are these people on!Someone wrote āI have NEVER been on a group holiday where the host hasnāt paid for the accom and food themselvesā. Iāve never been on a holiday where it hasnāt been split evenly. Either their friends are all millionaires, or theyāre a billy bullshitter.
The most annoying thing about that situation is this: I have NEVER been in many situations described on mumsnet. HOWEVER I can understand those situations and discuss them without picking them apart. It doesnāt matter if itās never happened to YOU itās happening to the poster so advise her on what is happening to her.
Itās similar to when posters use local slag/terms eg fizzy juice/pop/barm/bap ābut what does it meeeeeeeeeeeean?!ā.
Why would you want to show your self up as thick/lacking in empathy/having no imagination. You should be able to see things from others points of view or infer things from context or you shouldnāt give other people advice or involve yourself in their situation just to start side arguments.
Right! I've got friends who are megabucks professionals earning the famous mn six figures, and while they will probably pay for the takeaway if we go round, they're not paying for anyone's holiday.
There's a thread atm where a poster is questioning how cheap it actually is to make some foods from scratch (conventional wisdom) vs buying it. Obviously 90 percent of posts are about quality or taste (not what was asked) or suggesting purchases of a slow cooker, pressure cooker and air fryer to cut costs.
WTF is a boot room? 
And is it actually anything to do with boots?WTF is a boot room?
Exactly.
I think some just sit waiting for someone to use a phrase that they can pounce on. Pretending they can't possibly work out what it means, from context.
Showing themselves up as totally stupid while they think it's showing how clever they are.
When someone famous dies, there's always some silly twit who turns up to say 'Who? Never heard of them, can't be that famous.'
Thing about people from money is they never tell you they have money. Scruffy clothes, battered cars and tatty houses.
Iāve also found that most people who are rich tend to be extremely penny pinching, which is probably how they got there in the first place.
The exception here being DHs boss who came from nothing and founded a multi million pound business. His parties are EPIC.

I think they think if they pretend they donāt know what a barm is it makes them middle class
I donāt use the word barm, I donāt know anyone who uses it but when someone tells me they had a bacon barm for breakfast I know what they mean from context and books and tv. They think class is more important than intelligence and they think they same about āhilariouslyā mocking people.
