I'm a busy guy. I've got stuff to do, people to see and small animals to feed. (Metaphorical small animals, not real ones). What are some responses I can post on any thread without having to do all that crappy and time consuming reading the thread business?

Can't you just move?
Just get a takeaway (even though you live rurally, there's no delivery service and the nearest takeaway is a 40 minute round trip)

If this was reposted with the sexes reversed the OP would get a very different response.

Why are you still paying for your 16yo to have a phone? I already had a mortgage and three kids aged 16.

LynetteScavo · 30/12/2019 13:01

They're 5yo, they're still a baby and have only just been born. Of course their teacher is being unreasonable to explicit them not to hit and kick other children. You should try to find a more understanding school for your child.

LynetteScavo · 30/12/2019 13:02

Do you have anything you could sell?

Post - I'm so worried about DH, I found a hospital appt card in his pocket when I was loading the washing machine and I'm concerned that he's very unwell. He's been looking really poorly recently.

Reply - Why are you doing his washing it's not the 1950s for god's sake!

The whole country has lost sight of what slim looks like.

Marilyn Monroe was a size 12 at most, not a modern size 16.

My three kids were all chimney sweeps by the age of five.

Gruel is the ultimate foodstuff. You don’t need a beverage to go with it.

Message from MNHQ: The OP has asked us to remove this as it is quite identifying.

(Thread did not go the way OP wanted/expected. Was not identifying.)

Heiligehoch · 30/12/2019 15:44

I remember when it was all fields around here.

Basilicaofthemind · 30/12/2019 15:45

That’s not racism. People say that to me all the time and I’m as pale and blonde as it’s possible to be.

Toddlerteaplease · 30/12/2019 16:02

Home school your kids for any issue.

lorettalemon · 30/12/2019 16:26

Start shopping in Aldi

Flamingnorahs · 30/12/2019 16:33

New here are we?

CircleofWillis · 30/12/2019 16:45

I've just realised who you are, OP. Having read your previous threads, I think that this really is the least of your problems.

AlaskaElfForGin · 30/12/2019 17:14

Just get another job.

OvenGlovesWillTearUsApart · 30/12/2019 17:24

OP - AIBU?

Mumsnet - Yes you are!

OP - No I’m not!

MedusasButterDish · 30/12/2019 17:32
