AIBU to be upset about a facebook group

AIBU staying in a facebook group?

I have had a quick name change!

I'm a member of a large facebook group for natural parents who are also science aware. This group has been a fantastic resource and support network but its all gone wrong. The people running the page all have their own issues and are ganging up on other members for what seems like no reason.

I have thought long and hard about leaving the group because it seems like playground bullying but i just cant seem to do it.

They are great when you need your hand holding and will help you with any problem you could think of. They have a fantastic support network of Nutella addicts and people with difficulties like ADHD and depression I'm not sure there there is a better community.

BUT posting in it can be like stepping onto a nest of vipers. People having mental health problems can be kicked out for no good reason OR supported with people being sent round to check on them or taxis being called and paid for by the group when fleeing a husband. It just depends if you are in with the right crowd or not.

There are many LGBTQ members and there are a lot who are in relationships or who have experimented with eachother and this is causing tension on the group.

I cant seem to leave but i can't seem to stay and I don't even know these people in real life.

Funniest thread in ages 😂

Interesting thread to say the least!

Awholelottanutella · 14/06/2018 02:02

I come from the secret land of SANP.

We have sacrificed the OP to the Nutella god. They weren’t a virgin but they were all we had to hand.

Sex parties are on Fridays at midnight and we use empty Nutella jars with tea lights in to create mood lighting. Robes are not optional, sorry.

I don’t know who Barbara is, perhaps we sacrificed her last week to the Hovis god to keep our cupboard full of toastie white bread for our ceremonial Nutella on toast. It’s really quite hard to keep up to date with all these sacrifices now.

Ex members may have been kicked out for being extra salty as it spoils the pus milk we need for our baptisms and communion ceremonies.

I hope that answers some of your questions.

Or in reality the OP is throwing an epic tantrum over a facebook group and people are living for the internet drama. The op has probably created half the “I used to be a member they’re all awful” accounts.

I would pick half of this post to believe and disregard the other half, a bit like a pick your own ending book.

Only skimmed over this thread but wow 😲 😂😂

Has anyone explained what natural parenting is? Am I an unnatural one?!

Ladybirdbookworm · 14/06/2018 01:49

All the talk of Nigella made me want something nutty
I may have just eaten more than one snickers while reading the full thread
So pleased I don't like milk

The high priestess has called us to gather. We will be back shortly with pitchforks and torches to hunt the non-believers

Sunflowersforever · 14/06/2018 01:05

I've RTFT and Confused

Nutella, red squirrels, wet sandals, sex with the leader, Santa is Satan, eggs are evil Barbara is a .... well, let's not go there, and something about salmon?

Are you all on glue?

The cow with its pussy fat came to us
on an old electric milk float
It brought some honey, was so damn funny
cos we're vegan and they didn't take note
The cow looked up to the priestess above
its chew was a little bizarre
My milk is pussy, and fussy, my love
what a crappy milk by far
ooh aar,
by far!
the crappiest milk pus by far!

IDontBowlOnShabbos · 14/06/2018 00:24

The ambassador is the one behind it. What he's done to those poor little defenseless balls of cow pus, brings a tear to my eye.

TornFromTheInside · 14/06/2018 00:21

They put 'em in a plastic box along with 10 others and them send 'em to all corners of the earth!

My eyes are watering already.

IDontBowlOnShabbos · 14/06/2018 00:18

You don't want to know what they do with the balls.

TornFromTheInside · 14/06/2018 00:16

puts down his Ferrero Rocher balls

FredSheeran · 14/06/2018 00:15

BARBARA KNOWS WHAT SHE DID.

TornFromTheInside · 14/06/2018 00:15

Nutella as lube? oh god no no no

If a bloke can't find that appealing, heaven knows how a woman can!

IDontBowlOnShabbos · 14/06/2018 00:13

Grin The sex cult leader actually has a micro penis so the nutella acts as a sort of filler, if you catch my drift.

ConciseandNice · 14/06/2018 00:13

Does it work as lube? I’d be tempted to try. It just seems a bit viscous.

AttilaTheMusical · 14/06/2018 00:12

I've never eaten a nut-based spread in my life, which perhaps explains why I am sitting here completely befuddled.
What science are they aware of that the rest of us aren't?
Where does the Nutella come in? No, forget that - I'm not sure I really want to know Grin

IDontBowlOnShabbos · 14/06/2018 00:11

Its called MIND YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS BARBARA

TornFromTheInside · 14/06/2018 00:11

laughing at lube substitite (sic). Oxymoron of the week - fantastic!

TornFromTheInside · 14/06/2018 00:10

I think nutella is used as a lube substitite.

I think the idea is not to be 'tite' !

Loandbeholdagain · 14/06/2018 00:09

What’s the offshoot sex group called? Sex Aware Nutella parenting?

TheOriginalEmu · 14/06/2018 00:08

@Atthebottomofthesea Though today I nearly hit a rabbit (or a hare how do you tell the difference?)

it's easy! one has long floppy ears, the other has a shell, one runs fast the other goes really slow and usually wins the ra.....oh wait, my mistake. thats a tortoise.
I don't know then.

MrsRyanGosling15 · 14/06/2018 00:08

Oh so am I in the twilight zone?? What the hell is going on? I was meant to be in bed 30min ago and I just can't get my phone to leave my hand. This is bloody nuts! One of the weirdest yet best threads I've read in a long time. Surely this needs saved in Classics?

IDontBowlOnShabbos · 14/06/2018 00:06

I think nutella is used as a lube substitite.
Not that I'd know...

TornFromTheInside · 14/06/2018 00:05

I'm Ex-parte at the sex party!
