Although stealing Doritos is very low even by worst in the world standards. I'm all for second chances so redemption is possible if you repent and they weren't tangy cheese flavoured
They were the cheesy ones.
I would have eaten the chilli ones too but the police arrived.

Sod t-shirts, we should get this printed on big, billowing, swirly capes... Mwah hah hah!!!

But we are the worst in society, so any decent folk like Robin would be appalled by us, so he won’t see the danger there.

Of course, there is the outside chance that Robin himself isn’t actually as decent a human being as he likes to think he is, and has massively misjudged... everything, really...

Yes, they really can't seem to grasp that they are sending people here.
It's hilarious, arrival bitching about Mumsnet being popular, while sending people here.

This is going to be a bit of an own goal for Robin. People will search for Mumsnet to see how bad we really are and find intelligent, reasoned arguments. Boo hoo mate, mums are used to strops and tantrums.

Never been prouder

Me neither, Ereshkigal. What women are accomplishing via MN is awesome and extraordinary. I am so proud to be part of that, however tiny that part is.

Vive la résistance! 🍷🍷🍷

This focuses on teenage girls but the problem of misogyny online is clear

So true

I sent DS back to bed when I came in from a women's group meeting when he should have been asleep 2 hours ago.
Definitely the worst.

TRAs truly have underestimated how much mothers will fight to protect children. They have underestimated women in general.

Because they believe we actually are the women they fantasise themselves to be.

Grimbles · 01/03/2019 22:13

I'm going to hack into YouTube videos and make mumsnet posts pop up in the middle of peppa pig.

In your face momo, bloody amateur

McKinnon is awfully busy right now explaining to Sharron Davies that it's an anti-science myth that male-bodied people have a performance advantage over females. Funnily enough Shazza's not even bothering to engage.

Worst in England, I love it!

Have we send thousands of disabled people to an untimely death by withdrawing their benefits? No!

Did we lie to the British public in order to push the UK in to a financial disaster from which we would personally profit? No!

Did we cause wars in other countries so our best buddies across the Atlantic could secure some oil? No!

What did we do then?

We noted that male and female people exist, and that what makes someone a woman isn't some supposed innate tendency toward 1950's feminine stereotypes.

For this we are 'the worst'.

Get away with you Robin and your testiria.

TowelNumber42 · 01/03/2019 22:07

scalliondays so true. I have actually destroyed all of said teenager's friendships and he will have no way to get help with knowing what homework to do and so will be in constant trouble. All in one week. I am so evil I didn't even blink. Apparently saying "You haven't even properly admitted it or apologised yet" is some kind of evil genius mind game that results in a sort of spluttering grunting sound being emitted. Worst in society. That's me. Not him, 'cause he's got no phone so no society innit?

andyoldlabour · 01/03/2019 22:05

Are MN worse than Fairplay for Women though, because they were likened to the KKK by one Rachel McKinnon.

Nah unfortunately its no 'I see them as real women except for relationship purposes'. I always get hopeful when reading twitter threads that that fine specimen of a man shows up to educate us Grin

Worst in society..lovely. And all as we acknowledge biology.

Im reading this thread instead of making dinner and doing the dishes. WORST

AornisHades · 01/03/2019 21:54

I wore something that was shamefully inappropriate when picking my tween up earlier. I was in the car and it wasn't visible but still...
Mea culpa.

HawkeyeInConfusion · 01/03/2019 21:49

You are the worst.

Alltheprettyseahorses · 01/03/2019 21:48

Meh. I get called the worst mum in the world about 3 times a week. Just being part of the worst in society is a bit of a demotion for me tbh. Not sure I like it.

RedToothBrush · 01/03/2019 21:44

The worst in society = euphemism for women we haven't managed to silence yet.

I was silent for nearly a decade. Fuck that. The emotional abuse and blackmail isn't something I wish to be hostage too.

I self identify as a believer in biological reality. Not pandering to a fantasy that can never be lived up to and eats away at families and society in the process.

If thinking of the worst impact and unintended consequences on society makes me the worst in society then bring it on.
