He's done it again, the twatbadger

Need to rant. My DS birthday today. Nothing from his bloody useless twat of a dad. Not even a card. Blames the current situation. He lives next door to a post office. Bloody funky pigeon or moonpig mean he wouldn't have had to get off his lazy, selfish, cocking arse. When I say 'again' I posted about him spending 12 quid on my dd's Xmas presents. He's not skint. He just can't see beyond his own narcissistic fabulousness. He's all over FB saying what a fucking amazing dad he is. Well Where's his bloody present then, you nobhead?? I'm getting more cross as the day progresses. Thanks for the vent.

I want to go on fb and tell everyone what a thundercunt he is but I'm not going to. I'll just do it anonymously here.

Yes he is a twat. We all knew lockdown was coming. £12 is really mean

Even in lockdown a bloody online card wouldn't cost a lot. It's just the lack of thought. Wanker.

You are a better person than me Dhalandchips I would be unable to stop myself from posting what a thundercunt he is all over FB.

AmelieTaylor · 02/04/2020 17:01

Yes he’s a wankbadger!!

The only thing you can do though is stop expecting him to act like a decent human being - he’s clearly not going to!

@CassandraCross I'm determined to keep my head held high.

I take my hat off to you Dhalandchips, you are correct of course and are rightly holding your head high. It probably wouldn't even make a dent in his delusions anyway and he would just turn it into a pity fest for himself.

Have zero expectations of him as any kind of decent human being, let alone a father, your children will see through him and know exactly which parent is actually a fabulous one.

Thundercunt. Best word ever!

Thank you @CassandraCross. He's got thousands of people on his FB. Several of them mutual friends. I have blocked him, but occasionally things do get back to me. Today he's been banging about his wonderful son. Cock. He doesn't deserve my children.

Thank you @Squaffle I picked it up from MN Grin

You are right again Dhalandchips he doesn't deserve your children. Children are very perceptive, one of the things I admire most about children is how clear sighted and direct they are, they'll see him for what he is and his hollow bragging will backfire.

ButteryPuffin · 02/04/2020 18:54

Folk will see through that type of empty bragging. I've come across it loads and it's recognisable.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 02/04/2020 19:05

What a total fuckweasel...

MrsDoylesTeaBags · 02/04/2020 19:07

Oh Dhalanchips our kids are such a blessing aren't they? I don't know how some parents like your ex and my father and DHs father can behave that way towards theirs and think they can get away with it. I'm always reminded of the song Cats in the Cradle. Happy birthday to your boy and power to you Flowers

Oops! Thank you for your kind words. Dd has just texted her dad asking why he didn't get her brother anything for his birthday....

I don't think anyone has mentioned cockwomble yet. Another MN favourite.

That is pants.
But as someone who uses moonpig and funky pigeon regularly every card I looked at yesterday for my dsis was sold out and delivery is taking 7 days.
Luckily I ordered my dgs’s card a week early before the demand shot through the roof. My dsis will just get a fb message.

Funnily enough, my ds's birthday has been on the same day for the last 13 years. He's had plenty of notice to order him a card. As you know, it's not difficult to think a little bit ahead. He's been texting his dad ever day for the past fortnight counting down to his birthday in giddy excitement.

Dhalandchips, my XH once did exactly the same - no acknowledgement at all that it was (teenage) DDs birthday. I discovered that XH had a Just Giving page where he was bragging about a charity event he was doing for his new family. I paid £10 (minimum contribution) to post a message on the page pointing out that whilst he may be dedicated to his new family, he was a shit father to his teenage DD Grin. It was worth every penny. The Just Giving page was taken down pretty sharpish after that.
