What makes you un-mumsnetty?

[GlummyMcGlummerson]

For me

• I park in parent and child spaces when I have my kids with me. I don't make my life harder by parking in a tiny normal space just in case that childless bloke in the Porsche 911 who runs into Asda like Linford Christie might have a better reason for it than me

• if I have a bad experience I complain. If I find my £40 steak swimming in fat with a pube in it, I don't refrain from saying anything just in case the chef has had a bad day.

• I go to the supermarket during the pandemic, I don't leave shaking and sobbing and riddled with guilt over it because I bought a Galaxy. I even take my kids with me.

• I don't "seethe" if, when the secret Santa budget is £5, I get a Bayliss and Harding gift set. I accept that £5 means limited options and I say thanks, move on and don't take it as a personal alight for years to come. I don't have the hump becauSe they didn't personally whittle a keyring from wood in the oak tree that tenderly grows in their back garden

What makes you unmumsnetty?

I generally think people should be given a chance

I think that people (frankly, especially men) take longer to learn how to be emotionally literate and if they get it wrong once, doesn't mean they are a permanent abuser

I hate how people pile in on a poster.

• I don't wash my bedsheets every 24 hours for at least 3 hours at 90°c

• I have a cockapoo and I think she's great

• my child has watched TV

I have not one, but two toilet brushes.

I'm overweight. Not proud of it, but it is what it is.

I don't launder my bed sheets and towels daily.

Tea towels go in the same wash as everything else and I also put the dog's bowls in the dishwasher.

I'm not bothered which toilet someone takes a shit in.

I don’t disclose very private information.

I don’t offer advice because I’m not an expert on emotional issues.

I don’t swear or use vulgar terms.

I don’t tell people they must be “jealous”if I criticise a woman.

That post was apposite. Lol

@hollyandkit

I've seen Anthony Head on a train - didn't realise it was a thing!

Wow- it really is a thing!

I don't think putting a puddle suit on my toddler and taking her out to splash in puddles is the solution to this long and dreary lockdown winter.

And I don't have any ducks near where I live... whenever someone on MN moans about having nowhere to take their toddler some fucker suggests feeding the ducks...maybe it's a southeast thing?

I’m poor.

-I’m a dad but I guess that’s not unusual in here these days.

-I’m a smoker. Filthy habit I know, but of course I go outside for that these days.

I have never had a mooncup and have zero intention of ever getting one.

I don't shake with anger and rage on behalf of other posters, nor do I believe anyone who claims to.

Oh...and I don't understand Mornington Crescent and find people's glee over those sorts of in jokes really twatty.

I genuinely like my husband (love him as well but it is different), When he annoys me I don't want to divorce him as we all annoy each other sometimes and I know he doesn't mean to upset me (even if he does some times).

Most of my friends who married are still married.

I tend not to share personal information with friends.

I judge.
I judge bloody everything and everyone openly. Instead of inwardly judging but spouting a whole load of woke bollocks to show how worthy I am.

@Barmyfarmy I got married aged 20 to a man much older than me and we're still together

I got married at 22 to a 44 year old and we were together until he died. But according to MN he was either a pervert or a controlling arse. Far from the truth!

I don't drive (narcolepsy funnily enough doesn't give the DVLA confidence in my driving skills)

I like Pandora bracelets, Irregular Choice shoes and Harkel dresses. I do not think I am wacky or mad, I just dress for myself and wear what makes me happy. You're a long time dead.

Just about everything.
I’m a SAHM and happy about it.
I don’t buy anything second hand
I sleep trained my 3 DC and they all slept through the night at 8 weeks and for 12 hours by 12 weeks.
I love having 3 DC, didn’t find it hard work or incredibly expensive.
I found traveling with DC easy and have taken them all on many different types of holidays.
I don’t think about how much money other people have, how they spend it or get jealous of what others have.
I have an engagement ring that cost more than £5.

I don’t even know who Anthony Head is, I may have missed him on trains.

I like my mother in law.
I like my neighbours.
I let my dog off the lead.
I let my dog lick the plates before they're washed.
I'm not a clean freak .

I love beer over wine.

My dds actually love all vegetables and smarties.

Housework is just something you do to the standards you prefer. It’s quite boring and not worth chatting about.

I've never spat my drink all over my keyboard, that sounds like a right pain to clean up.

My children all paid rent when they started work. I spent it instead of saving it up and giving it to them when they left.

My other half doesn't have a hobby

If my head was hanging off I'd go straight to a&e rather than checking here first

I’m not even a mum

I am a Tory voter and member, and a man.

(plus toilet brushes, eat any chocolate, ham in wafer thin packs etc)

Would ban all private education and healthcare.
Would never call my partner my other half or hubby. Yuck.
Would equally never use DH, DD, Dfuckingdog, DSC etc It makes me dry heave.
Ditto 'naice'.
Ditto Mummy of ... usernames.
I like my friends, have lots of them.
I fucking love a wedding.
Not a TERF.

My kids watch TV. I often watch with them.

I use parent and child spaces, they're so handy

Would ban all private education and healthcare

I think most mumsnetters think this don't they?
