have you ever seen any threads about smoking weed?! Jesus duck you would think that the poster asked “should I inject smack today in my lunch break”😂😂 they seem awfully sheltered types of folks and I was born without a shelter 😂😂😂😂
When they get told to call the police! 😂Yes, I’m sure the police have enough time to investigate someone smoking a spliff in their own garden and not causing any trouble/being loud 🙄

Plus they call weed smokers criminals and there was a thread about that TV program which was a reality show about the buses in London (how exciting) and I think it was called the Fare Dodgers, or something catchy like that, anyhoo this one fare dodger was called an “absolutely disgusting criminal” all because he dodged a fare!😂 if that’s what constitutes a criminal then I would hate to see what they thought of a real criminal, jeez they would have no pearls left as they would be pulled down with all the clutching😂😂

I once did an AIBU about my neighbour playing the radio all day in the garden loudly (even when going out to the shops). I was pretty much called a selfish bleep for not wanting to hear his music and have a quiet garden "get earplug princess", "go live in the middle of no where witch!", "have you heard of noise cancelling headphones, get some and shut up" and "entitled much, why does your liking of quiet override his love of music?!", because a lover of music just plays heart from a tinny little shity radio and leaves it on all day. So many perfectly normal AIBU questions go crazy.
Noise cancelling headphones would surely defeat the purpose would it not?!😂😂😂
 
Anyone just go on MN still for a giggle?

Any story about badly behaved step children is ALWAYS followed up with comments like ‘were you the other woman?’

Husband stays at the pub an hour longer than he said ‘lynch the b!!! He is cheating on you!!!’

any minor inconvenience on someone’s street ‘log it with 101’ 😂😂😂😂

Being a goady witch on MN is funny, esp the feminist threads, Jesus wept they are bleeping crazy, they are basically trying to stop porn because it’s so unethical and all the women are trafficked, yawn, of course there are trafficked women but I’m sure the majority are not!

I like the TV boards but that’s it.

The feminist threads are beyond crazy!!! Constantly dragging sex workers and refusing to believe sex work IS real work (despite what opinions you may have on it). And the transphobia on there is off the scale!!!

I was on MN for a while. Deleted my account but still browse when I'm bored. It's too serious - I want a laugh. I was on Babycentre for a few years when I was pregnant/had a baby/toddler. Can't remember why I left BC as it was so long ago.

Oh god yeah the sex work threads! A sex worker was once on it and she was doing an AMA (ask me anything) and one woman asked if she paid tax (yawn) and another asked if she gave any thought to the women whose hubby’s she was sleeping with! Unbelievable out of all the things she could have asked! I think lots of MN are threatened by sex workers in all honesty and I think that half of them suspect their hubby’s of going with hookers.

They want the sex industry stopped (good luck with that) and disguise their reasons as wanting it for the women but they would essentially be making thousands of women skint!

These women don’t realise that sex workers are keeping their marriage going in some cases, many women go through the menopause and don’t want sex ever again which is understandable but they can’t just expect their men to live a life of celibacy just because they don’t want to do it, and half of them would have a divorce if they got their man paying for it.

The thing is is that if I was to be cheated on then I would rather my man paid for it with a hooker because it’s just a transaction whereas someone he met in his personal life is likely tohave an emotional connection which is way more hurtful than just sex.

So many sheltered women on MN

The education threads are bonkers, lots of ‘call ofsted’ for the slightest thing. Some people obviously think there’s a crack team of inspectors waiting to swoop in after one call from MN.

Just wanted to say that I’ve recently come off mn, since lockdown the place has become toxic, so many posters being utter c*nts, there’s just no need.

They do believe that they are hugely important and they even think that they influence soap storylines!!

I kid you not 😂😂...they will say things on the Emmerdale board and then weeks later they will say that the Emmerdale producers must read MN because they were complaining about x y z and now x y x has been fixed with all thanks to MN😂😂😂

Deluded much

And the snobbery about schools is off the scale. If you don’t go private then you obviously don’t care about your kids

They are just very snobby all together, it’s the same with their reviews on clothes etc, high street doesn’t seem good enough for them so they pay over the odds.

I think half of them lie about their incomes, class status, where they live etc, that’s the beauty of the internet in that people can be anonymous.

Also if you shave your cat then your ‘obviously a porn star wannabe’ who attracts paedophiles and your disgusting. 😂😂

Also if your hubby watches porn knowing that you, the wife doesn’t like it, then you should leave the b and they only know that their hubby’s have been watching porn because they went snooping in his phone!

I left baby centre when they replaced the community manager who had been there for years with 2 young girls who were awful and basically said “no we won’t remove a pile on your birth club, as we’re enjoying the drama!”
 
They are savages on there. I remember seeing one about someone struggling to pay nursery fee’s & it was like an outrage that somebody didn’t have enough money. Poor woman just wanted abit of advice & she was ripped to pieces cause she wasn’t pretending to keep up with the jones🙄

Ah but don't you just love it when someone recently asks (property board) if having £2600 monthly after the mortgage payment was enough to live on as a single person.

Yeah and I hate their lingo too and they just have a different humour from us Brits and as we are quite dry and sarcastic then they always think the sarcasm is real so you spend your time constantly explaining that you were just being sarcastic, CBA with it!

There was also a thread about women that have kids to men knowing full well that they are useless and that these women are wreckless and irresponsible to bring children into that sort of relationship, and only a few women had the guts to admit that they knew their partner was worse than useless yet had a baby anyway but the amount of women that said they were using condoms AND the pill yet they still got pregnant, and I call absolute bull on that! Just hold your bleeping hands up and admit that you were silly and naive, don’t pretend you took all the precautions in the world yet still fell pregnant and some even said that they had gotten pregnant more than once from using double contraception! My bleeping a you lying wenches!!😂😂

Women’s bad behaviour gets excused a lot, if a woman is jealous, possessive, controlling etc then she was obviously abused as a child and has poor esteem (the go to excuse for female bad behaviour) and needs counselling and gets a tit load of sympathy, yet if a man acts the same way then you have to LTB immediately and he ‘won’t change’ etc etc,they don’t like men as much as they won’t admit it, not all MN of course but lots of them.
