Yup, as it used to say on one of my websites: If you are Easily Offended the management respectfully suggests that you fuck off and get a fucking life.

hah haaaah! suzy, that's exactly it! (although i suppose by extension that means the people who express 'i'm disappointed that some people can be so dense' are actually saying 'i think i'm cleverer than you'. but i think i can live with that, tbh. )

zizou · 14/05/2007 14:31

Dinosaur what was the thread spidermama started?

nailpolish · 14/05/2007 14:29

put me down for one furball

donnie · 14/05/2007 14:29

yes - or howabout " my other car is a fucking massive gas guzzling 4 X 4"

suzywong · 14/05/2007 14:28

wank

Furball · 14/05/2007 14:28

I think we should get Littlepin to get some tshirts printed with 'Mumsnet - Fuck off if you don't like it' on the front, whatdayasay?

donnie · 14/05/2007 14:25

tut tut suzi, language puhleese.

suzywong · 14/05/2007 14:24

yes, a second vote for fuck off if you don't like it

all this whinging is just passive aggresiveness, that's what the "I am so disappointed that some people can be so nasty" which really means, I think I am nicer than you and I will take this opportunity to tell you and then see how many people agree with me.

mumblechum · 14/05/2007 14:22

I'd have nothing to do if not MNing at work all day. Last night I dreamed my boss came into my office and told me to get off MN and do some work.

Today I did some work.

Then I went on MN.

As la Cod says, if you don't like it, bog off.

"What people seem to forget is that MN is actually OPTIONAL "

LittleMouseWithCLogsOn · 14/05/2007 14:22

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew

stop it oyu perv

morningpaper · 14/05/2007 14:21

AHA so then you HAVE had sex

Lots of one-in-a-bed excitement, non?

Hassled · 14/05/2007 14:20

What people seem to forget is that MN is actually OPTIONAL - you don't actually have to read/have an opinion about every last thing people get worked up about. I have no idea what MN was like back in the good old days, but now it provides me with entertainment, interest, advice etc etc when I want it. The bits that I consider "horrid", I ignore.

LittleMouseWithCLogsOn · 14/05/2007 14:18

ew at sex chat
mno dh is away

akaJamiesMum · 14/05/2007 14:18

Some people are plain rude and offensive at times. However, I suspect that they must equally be like that in RL too. You get it on every forum/board - best ignored.
It does get a bit "school bully" in some cases though. It is rather worrying though when some point out the rudeness/nastiness that others rush to defend the offender.
FWIW I haven't seen too much of it here - guess I must be on the wrong threads.

edam · 14/05/2007 14:18

Is it nearly a full moon atm? Only I've noticed MN seems to go a bit wierd around that time. Maybe the number of hairy-arsed truckers is actually outweighed by the number of werewoves. Or summat.

Furball · 14/05/2007 14:18

especially you cod - do you had sex this morning? you're acting all weird

LittleMouseWithCLogsOn · 14/05/2007 14:16

a lot of stuff need to STAY in my head i find

Furball · 14/05/2007 14:15

It makes me laugh when people post a thread saying if you like chocolate sign up here then someone will always post chocolate makes you fat, gives you spots, infact I hate it. They then start another thread saying All those who DON'T LIKE chocolate, sign in here. bonkers

but yes agree with you totally, it must be the wind, putting the jitters up everybody......
