Airline seats are the new eating grapes in a supermarket

[OnlyHereForTheCamping]

When I first joined mumsnet and it were all fields etc. The great divide was between those who would eat grapes in a supermarket and those who would not. Now it appears to be those who fork out for seats on a plane and those who don't

[DoreenLethal]

Ok. Thanks for the info.

[OnlyHereForTheCamping]

You are very welcome

[e1y1]

Haha.

This week on AIBU would be a lesson to anyone, don't discuss either eating in supermarkets or having to pay for specific airline seats

[Hysterectical]

Such nice friendly people on here some days...
Plane people are idiots. But they are quite entertaining idiots with their entitled moral outrage.

[ClopySow]

Are people no longer divided by grapes?

My step dad used to give my son a banana to eat on his way round the supermarket. It made me furious.

[LiviaDrusillaAugusta]

Excellent - another TAAT

[OnlyHereForTheCamping]

It's not a taat its a taamot (thread about a million other threads).

[PuppyMonkey]

I only really come on here for the parking threads these days.

[OnlyHereForTheCamping]

Parking threads are amazing

[staghunter]

Interestingly (or not) i have no opinion on grapes or airline seats. I am passionate about parking though.

[exLtEveDallas]

It's not a new thing. I've been here since 2004 and the airline/selected seating threads start around Easter for those going on Summer hols and continue until late Sept for those complaining about summer hols.

At the start of Oct it's the Halloween (American/begging/devil/fun) threads.

At the start of Nov it's Remembrance Day red/white/purple poppies/glorifying war

Dec is spending too much/not spending enough/dinners/family/the twitch

Jan is boring / Jan is remember when MN went offline.

Feb most peopl are normal

March the airline posts start up again.

Ad infinitum.

I thought parking threads were out, and threads about wheelie bins were in?

[DerekSprechenZeDick]

People are struggling now as the summer to autumn change over is happening

They are no longer mad at smokers smoking outside as they don't wish to be outdoors anymore

Finding their footing

Halloween is for beggars threads will be starting soon

Followed by ring the police coz neighbours are having a bonfire and fireworks next

Then 'I only give my children a penny and forehead flick for Xmas and they are grateful' threads

Usually there are PIL gave my child a gift what twats.

I don't want tat can I tell family?

everyone who goes along with it are giving their kids trust issues

I've been here too long

[DerekSprechenZeDick]

Santa is the trust issues thread. Forgot
To mention the bearded fella

[exLtEveDallas]

Ooh yes "So you lie to your child" - I forgot those

And bonfires and fireworks upsetting the pets/newborns

[Butteredparsn1ps]

Don't forget the Christmas mummy martyr threads, any day now I reckon.

[DerekSprechenZeDick]

Sometime in October the Xmas ones start. The santa ones are my favourite though.

[Hysterectical]

Then 'I only give my children a penny and forehead flick for Xmas and they are grateful' threads

Best post ever

[Sparklingbrook]

I thought this was going to be a reclining/not reclining airline seats bunfight thread.

[Catsize]

Have just realised...
Airport parking spaces have no 'parent/carer/alien and child' parking spaces!!
How are we coping?!? Does nobody THINK about THE CHILDREN!!!
Threads of the future, we await you...

[HoneyDragon]

Whoaaaah Eve

February is the month of competitive not giving a shit about Valentines day.

[DerekSprechenZeDick]

Dixie just post Halloween memes on every one constantly. Fill them up so no one can share that crazy thoughts

[OnlyHereForTheCamping]

I have only noticed the airline thing recently but I am not on here that much any more.


Oh yes to the wooden hoop and a satsuma for Xmas crew
