I don't believe a word of it lately.

Yup, this again.

I KNOW It's because it's the holidays, mostly, but fuckeroo it's a pile of toss here lately.

Between the wank trolls and the drama llamas, the wannabe novelists and the nasty goading returned bannees, it's Not As Much Fun as usual.

I'm reprting threads (which then get deleted, ah the validation) left right and centre and it's getting a bit boring now.

If you're being a troll, just up your game, eh? You're not clever, you're not even funny, you;re not even really annoying. Just dull and repetitive and obvious.

Either do it better or bore the fuck off.

Ta very much.

Play with my kids? Oh god no. The horror. You obviously haven't met them.

I've been so bored today that I've not only done housework but I've done a whole college course.

Hmm. perhaps this is a GOOD thing?

Yes do it Reality people love those threads.

MrsKoala Tue 20-Aug-13 19:21:17

i can't say i've noticed any of the things you mention - have i just been reading the wrong threads?

And moaning about drip feeding is so irritating tbh - someone gives a broad stroke OP/certain amount of info, doesn't want to make the OP too boring long. Then responds to any relevant questions and people come along and say 'drip drip drip' like they are some internet police. If you were talking to someone in RL would you smugly say that if they answered a question shedding new light on a scenario? No you would accept it as the natural unfolding of a story.

I've been here nearly 5 years and the place is no different imo.

I've been that bored the last few days Reality, that at have dusted my ceilings, taken all my photos out of the frames and cleaned them, dusted behind the radiators and got DS1 to get all the lampshades down so I could Hoover them! hmm

I've returned today after a month or so of not posting. Either:

a) I'm filling everything up with shite and spoiling it for all the sensible children, or

b) things are about to improve again


Reality Tue 20-Aug-13 19:27:54

I've been here six years, I think? Maybe seven? Cripes, perhaps I've just had my fill sad

LittleMissWise that is TOO MUCH cleaning, Sit down before you do yourself a mischief.

I might start a 'who's the cuntiest Mumsnetter'

That always goes down well.

Dackyduddles Tue 20-Aug-13 19:28:55

Well I'm here 52wks a year. Can't see much different tbh.....?

Reality Tue 20-Aug-13 19:29:44

grin Buffy.

There are a few notable 'new' names I am enjoying, I have to say <looks at KellyHOpter>. Namechanging discombobulates me and ruins my spreadsheet,

I think it should be a law that all namechangers pm to update me.

Perhaps someone should start a thread rather like the Oscars of mumsnet. Best male, best female, best feminist. Lifetime achievement, best newcomer, etc. That ought to be good for some entertainment. Who would present it though, and manage the costume changes?

Go for it, Buffy - I'll be the scene shifter. grin

FrancescaBell Tue 20-Aug-13 19:36:19

D'you notice that the same threads about the same people and exactly the same circumstances get rolled out every few months?

I saw a thread the other day from a poster about her wealthy friend and the chasm in their friendship and I swear I've seen the same thread from the same poster (different names used though) about 40 times now during my time on MNet. What's that all about?

Sleepathon Tue 20-Aug-13 19:37:23

Haven't a clue what you're talking about but you aren't half coming across as a bunch of snobs

Reality Tue 20-Aug-13 19:38:40

Snobs? Er, what?

MrsDeVere Tue 20-Aug-13 19:39:19

If I see one more fucking Disabled Toilet fucking thread I will go fucking postal on yo asses.

Just sayin'

I recommend crochet. Easy to learn. Keeps me off here sometimes.

Whatabouttehsnobz, eh?

Snobs? confused

littlemisswise Tue 20-Aug-13 19:41:14

Snobs! That's a new one on me!

littlemisswise Tue 20-Aug-13 19:42:32

jollyhappy DH is going away for 4 months in 4 weeks time, my mission when he is away is to learn to crochet. I've got my hooks and wool ready and waiting to go.

BulletProofVestyBunny Tue 20-Aug-13 19:42:55

I do like a good random snobs accusation thrown in, keeps it interesting like.

Sleepathon Tue 20-Aug-13 19:44:11

What exactly are you complaining about??
People posting about things you don't agree with? People posting things that are not to your taste? I don't understand?
It's like a playground all of a sudden.... Oooh I've been here for 5 years! It's just not like it used to be!!

You're all grown women FFS

Last time I checked it was a free forum. If you don't like what is being said then ignore it????!

I am dead snobby me. I had a fish finger sandwich for tea with a glass of Dr Pepper. grin

BulletProofVestyBunny Tue 20-Aug-13 19:44:43

I want to learn to crochet so I can make some of those baby octopuses (octopi?) like in John Lewis.

Calm down Sleepathon it's only the internet-you seem to be very wound up. If you don't like was is being said on this thread why didn't you ignore it?
