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.

Tatty my Nutella glasses don't look like yours, yours are rounder and nicer are they new or old?

I saw Boysey last weekend. He was signing books. No one wanted any, he looked bored.

@TattyFrench understood Wink

TattyFrench · 14/06/2018 22:33

User I can't answer that for security reasons.

Lethaldrizzle so did I! That is the reason they make the small jars like, well, like glasses. Despite the fact it's made from puss, and is helping to kill orangutangs and donkeys, it's a good bit of recycling. Between my glass milk bottles and Nutella I havn't bought a drinking glass in years.

user1510568216 · 14/06/2018 22:32

I let my LO watch Antonella the uncensored reviewer do a Nutella challenge & she can't even look at it now. Kept all the old jars for glasses & she refuses to drink from them because it makes her feel "a little bit sick". Honestly can't blame her. Smile

Lethaldrizzle · 14/06/2018 22:23

I thought everyone drunk wine from nutella jars

user1510568216 · 14/06/2018 22:14

@TattyFrench were you in the cult & have now been disfellowshipped? Wink

TattyFrench · 14/06/2018 22:03

I call this 'Wine, Nutella jar and Flowers'. Mixed medium. £800.^

It's the only reason I buy the stuff, I don't even eat it. I scoop it out and put it in the bin to get the jar for my wine.

I think Tatty is almost like a living work of surrealist art.
A woman who drinks wine from a Nutella jar is without doubt nuttier than a fruitcake, and that's no bad thing.

TattyFrench · 14/06/2018 21:44

I'm currently drinking wine from a Nutella glass while The Rabbit tries to mate my arm and The Dog tried to mate The Rabbit. It's tiresome to say the least.

TornFromTheInside · 14/06/2018 21:40

and it seems if your tongue can reach the bottom of a Nutella jar, then....

you'll never waste a drop of it.

TornFromTheInside · 14/06/2018 21:39

Nutella is a lubricant - I'll leave it at that.

idlikemoresleep · 14/06/2018 21:38

@TattyFrench

😂😂

I am absolutely still none the wiser but for a Thursday this is brilliant entertainment

MicheleWeinberger · 14/06/2018 21:36

I think I pretty much get it apart from the Nutella bit.

Is the leaders name Nutty Ella. Just wanted to clarify.

V funny thread this

TattyFrench · 14/06/2018 21:32

Shall we tell the rest of the world that milk is made of puss?

THIS IS A PIBLIC INFORMATION ANNOUNCEMENT!*

*MILK IS MADE OF PUSS!!!!!!!

DO NOT DRINK MILK!!!!

MILK IS MADE OF PUSS!!!!

DO NOT DRINK MILK!

DO NOT GO ON ESCALATORS!

DO NOT PLAY IN SILOS!!

TornFromTheInside · 14/06/2018 21:23

I think they'll have called for an extraordinary meeting to discuss how their secrets have been revealed. If the rest of the world discovers that milk is full of puss they will run out of things to misinform others about!

TattyFrench · 14/06/2018 21:16

I might camouflage myself as a horse, I bet they don't agree with horses. Do you think they're all having the biggest and 'most important' meeting in the world about the naughty people who broke cover? I bet Tom Cruise is there. In his leather coat and sandals.

TornFromTheInside · 14/06/2018 21:10

They've been rounded up by the cult truant police.
We are the last two who've evaded capture by sticking together.

TattyFrench · 14/06/2018 21:07

Or Copydex ....

TornFromTheInside · 14/06/2018 21:04

uh huh

TattyFrench · 14/06/2018 21:03

Thanks Torn

TattyFrench · 14/06/2018 21:01

Torn 😔

TornFromTheInside · 14/06/2018 20:59

Ignore Tatty, she's on glue - I'm not the first to have noticed.

Seems we're stuck with her though.

IDontBowlOnShabbos · 14/06/2018 20:58

I met Trigger at a charity do once. He was suprisingly down to earth and VERY funny.

TattyFrench · 14/06/2018 20:50

Forgot to say if you post a picture you have to alert people to TW (Terry Wogan).
