School pick up twat

[Revoltingrhyme]

We’re all anonymous here so we can secretly rage at the one person who drives us insane at school pick up.

Now I’ll start by saying this isn’t an attack on the women, I am a young, high maintenance woman myself- platinum hair, false tan etc but there’s a few groups of similar mums at the school pick up who come in gym sets, hair all done, lovely done filler. Very glam.

But it’s this one dad who sets my teeth on edge. He will cut the queue every day and walk up the path past everyone until he finds one of these mums and tries to flirt with them very blatantly. It’s the strut he does, the specific type of woman he looks for. He’s not even cutting right up to the front, just until he sees one of these mums who are simply trying to pick up their kids. Argh he makes my skin crawl and it never fails to irritate me every day 😂

Anyone else have that one twat at pick up who annoys you?

Yes, the nebby gossip who hangs in proximity to hear little snippets of goss to recycle

Nothing at DGS' current school but at his previous ones we had the Noisy Mums, they talked very loudly, hence the nickname, and we learnt every detail of one of their DP's having an affair with her mother and subsequent fallout. I'm not sure if they wanted the entire line to know about it but we did. We also got beauty advice like don't wear sunscreen as you'll go brown quicker without it

Affair with her mother? His wife mum?oh I say…

The post has quickly changed from "the chaser" to these dry robes, and which btw make people look like giant flying squirrel's walking upright

People who park on the zig zag yellow lines outside the school, you know the one bit where you’re specifically not supposed to park. It’s always the same parents.

When DC were at primary there was a mum and dad who regularly turned up with very expensive looking bikes and matching, bright, full body and very tight lycra bodysuits. They would stand (pose) in front of the school for ages before cycling off so everyone could get a good look at them. They were both slim and (physically) fit - annoyingly

Old fart here, just looked up dry robes - basically outdoor smocks or what used to be called housecoats. Ugly. I don't get it, why not wear a coat?

We’ve a few dry robes, although we’re over an hours drive to the sea so I’m assuming they aren’t being used ‘properly’ unless those parents are taking a dip in our rather hideous river.

mostly at our school it’s the parking situation - it’s got so bad in the past that the police were called and now drop by every now and again. Mostly idiots double parking and blocking the road because they don’t want to walk more than twenty seconds.

Dry robe wankers 😂

I must confess though, I got my DC dry robes. I thought hard about whether I wanted to be seen with them though. However, they do put them on after a surf club, so they can get changed easily and stay warm, so I concluded that this was okay.

It blows my mind, not only that this sort of thing goes on, but that people actually notice it!

Either I lucked out with my kid's school or I must walk around with my head in the clouds most of the time.

Oh god, this thread reminded me of a woman at my kids' old primary school. She loved herself - very loud, always bothering the teachers about her darling offspring & how well they were doing.

However, in winter she always wore an ankle length white puffer jacket. I bet she thought she looked like the dog's bollocks in it, but DH and I nicknamed her The Maggot.

And a month later you post you have two cats “and no children”

odd

We have one of those at our school too. I noticed a while ago that he goes for the exact opposite kind of woman his GF is, which totally baffles me.
I always feel for his GF bc whenever she's with him he stands quietly, not making eye contact with all his favourites.

Some mums used to turn up in PJ's and slippers, some with a can of beer at 8.30 am 😳😳

Reading these posts has confirmed I made the correct decision not having children. No children = no school run= no (ugly) dry robes!

@Ihateboris what a strange way to find validation. At least you're happy I guess. You do realise school run is a very short lived part of family life and I'm not sure what areas everyone else lives in but I've yet to see a dry-robe in real life anywhere (thankfully ) With that I'm going to go spend the rest of my evening with my teens catching up on tv together with snacks
