What makes you immediately think 'Mumsnetter' ??

[PlaymobilPirate]

I was watching Dinner Date this morning and the girl on it served up on Emma Bridgewater plates and bowls.

The dresser behind her had loads of Emma Bridgewater cups on too. She was young so assume still living at home.

My first thought was "bet her Mum is a Mumsnetter"

Having a DD called Otillie, or a DS called Hugo.

Anyone who says something "makes their teeth itch".

Saying "Oh do fuck off dear"

Grammar school.
Denby Pottery,
Tiger bread,
Rotisserie Chicken,
Children with names that begin with Lu,
National Trust families where the Mum has a back pack, the Dad is wearing walking sandals and maybe a baby in a backpack and the kids have knotty hair, tutus/fairy wings/tails and wellies. Not exclusive to NT places also found in Centre Parcs, museums, and music festivals.

When people refer to their children as 'DD' or 'DS' instead of their names in texts/whatsapp!

Using the word 'snowflake' is a bit of a giveaway.

The other week on Gogglebox Elly & Issy has a whole conversation about the hoard of different zoflora scents Elly had.

I think Elly's definitely a Mumsnettet with her Brexit stash of zoflora.

I glance suspiciously at anyone using Norks or Sanpro in conversation. My suspicion grows deeper if they claim the ability to smell sanpro through clothes

People at the supermarket checkout who put the "next customer" indicator thingy just a wee bit skew-whiff and give you a semi-quizzical and slightly knowing look to see your reaction.

People who say "that doesn't work for me" or "no is a complete sentence" a lot.

People who refer to their friends' babies as perfect first borns - with an air of faint disapproval and a discernible whiff of disdain.

My teenage kids laugh. They said it is typical of people ho like and share bad memes.. such as ' prosecco o clock..

This evening I went to collect a parcel which had been taken in by a neighbour round the corner. She obviously has D.C. and I'm 99% sure she knew I was at the door (I rang the bell, and knocked and saw her through the frosted glass,) I'm sure she could see I was there.

Anyway, I just thought bloody MNetter not answering the door.

I really need the parcel, in case she's reading this.

I genuinely realised a friend was a mumsnetter because of her use of "entitled" and "unreasonable".

@TapDanceJazzHands she's probably just a follower of mrs hinch on Snapchat

They wear joules or hush.
They game the state school admissions system then complain endlessly about teaching quality/other parents/religious overtones.
They are either obsessed with cleanliness or proud of slovenliness.
They spend a lot of time on their phone but have no social media presence.
They spend hundreds of pounds on Christmas/birthday presents for their children.

They spend hundreds of pounds on Christmas/birthday presents for their children.
Or they buy them a second hand satsuma and an knit them a jigsaw because consumerism.

This

Use of the word boobing, never heard it anywhere else.

Ott ridiculous reactions to dogs in public.

References to 'the mental load' of normal family life.

Shit parking/ driving by women with evidence of dc, I assume they are one of the posters that like to proudly pop up on driving threads and share how incompetent they are as though it's normal or acceptable.

Desperate attempts to appear middle class by being pretentious, or sharing their tosser views on benefits, council estates, low incomes etc.

Anyone militantly patrolling parent and child spaces.

Anyone that does a head tilt and a tinkly laugh.

I remember back in the day, identifying loads of Mumsnetters by the massively oversized animal print scarf. They were all the rage over in Style and Beauty about 5 years ago.

Wearing Boden/Joules
Those God awful sandals everyone raves about
At a NT property

I have inadvertently used a acronyms in the wild before. I referenced my 'MIL' in a text once but wasn't caught out as my friend didn't know what it stood for.

Any grown woman talking about her "foof".

'They game the state school admissions system then complain endlessly about teaching quality/other parents/religious overtones'

Yy, this. Esp the atheists who are proud of their dc's 'critical thinking skills' and send them to a faith school for the academics only to spend the duration complaining about religious assemblies, church services et al.

Using the expression "batshit"

They spend a lot of time on their phone but have no social media presence

Using the word 'snowflake' is a bit of a giveaway

I strongly suspect one of my 'mum' friends is on here. I don't know what it is really. But I just get a vibe she said something a little while ago that made me think she was definitely a MNetter. Wish I could remember what it was ...

Mums who do loud, public parenting and explain every action, loudly, to their little Hugo, in a overly-detailed, age-inappropriate way. "Now Hugo, mummy is putting the petrol in the car to make the engine work so that when mummy presses the accelerator pedal the car will move forward!" Poor, 3 year old Hugo, just wants to lick a dog and eat a crayon.
