Other than troll hunting and personal abuse etc.

eg: "don't you have anything better to worry about?"

Yes of course I fucking do. Just because I posted something doesn't mean it is the only cunting thing I care about!

'this is a first world problem'

None of your business. Keep your nose out etc etc.

OK OK, but we are talking about opinions. We are all allowed those

"First World problem". I don't live in Somalia. I'm glad TBH. I don't have majority world problems.

"and what did social services/the police/the school say when you reported this?"

when there has been no mention as yet of reporting.

ICBINEG · 27/03/2013 15:56

'yawn' etc.

uhuh...because nothing says 'the most interesting thing about me is the view of my tonsils' like yawning....

Anyone who hasn't bothered reading even the OP properly and then swings in with some wild and vastly stupid opinion... should be shot at dawn. Such as 'well I think YABU because of xy and z' even though none of those things have been mentioned.

Not exactly an AIBU response, more of an occurrence. Grin

JamieandtheMagicTorch · 27/03/2013 15:57

yy to Get A Grip

how rude!

grimbletart · 27/03/2013 15:57

It's not all about you

No dear - never said it was.

ICBINEG · 27/03/2013 15:58

gah and when you post AIBU to hate people doing X? and people respond.

"I don't do X"

how fucking great for you...that helps me how?

OhChristHasRisenFENTON · 27/03/2013 15:58

I haven't read the thread but...

ChazsBrilliantAttitude · 27/03/2013 15:58

"You should consider yourself lucky to have Parents /IL still alive who refuse to help you some of us have lost ours...etc"

& variations on a theme

ginslinger · 27/03/2013 15:59

you're lucky that you have a DM/MIL/DH/cockatoo to worry about. Some of us don't and we would never moan ever

ICBINEG · 27/03/2013 15:59

"it's not all about you" is an absolute classic.

OP posts:
ginslinger · 27/03/2013 15:59

JamieandtheMagicTorch · 27/03/2013 15:59

'Oh and are your diamond shoes too tight'

Shockingly people have different lifestyles and different problems.

Shows how often it turns up on AIBU

ParadiseChick · 27/03/2013 16:00

'No is a complete sentence'

Because it's not, it's bullshit.

Remember the manic thread before Christmas where the SIL said 'No' and only no, to getting a canvas print of her DD and the OP's DD for the grandparents Christmas. The SIL said no, that was all.

What followed was pages of OMG How rude! Why not? And speculation as to why she dared say no, and only no!

MrsTerryPratchett · 27/03/2013 16:00

All the "I lived at the bottom of a lake and had to eat sewage, you should be grateful to have anything" bollocks. Chaz is right, it's annoying and irrelevant. There is always someone who has it worse. However, the OP's issues are the OP's issues so be empathetic.
