The MN solutions to all problems

[Wishimaywishimight]

LTB (obviously)
A spa day
A bubble bath
A glass of fizz
Posh chocs

For children;
Hot chocolate

I can't think of any more but I am sure there are a few!

Get an uber

For noise issues with neighbours - move to a detached house

I don't think we even have uber where I live

'Why did you have children with this man child OP?'

This is the answer to most things

Any problem whatsoever your baby has: a sling. It doesn’t matter what it is, if it’s related to a baby someone will suggest the freaking sling.

Why did you start a relationship with a man who already has children?

This is one of my favourites - as if most people wouldn't prefer to live in a detached house! Don't these posters realise the price difference between a terraced (or even semi-d) and a detached??

Get a nanny and cleaner especially when people complain how little money they have

Not to mention needing to pay insurance, which kind of defeats the object.......

'Get a cleaner'
'Unfriend, block, and move on with your life.'

Can you retrain? Especially for single mums with 4+ kids who hasn't slept for 2.5 years.

“Did you mean to be so rude?”

I actually tried this on sil after one of her barbed comments. She just said, “Oooh, hit a nerve, did we?!”

Expensive mortgage? Just sell your house. Problem solved overnight.

Any issues with your husband can be resolved by "sitting him down" and "calmly explaining" as if he is your employee and you are doing his work appraisal

Also for entertaining children when there’s monsoon type rain outside: raincoats and wellies and spend hours splashing in puddles

Ah yes, 'get a cleaner', forgetting that a) finding a good cleaner is akin to hunting a unicorn (where I live, anyway) and b) those good cleaners will cost at least £15-20 per hour.

Admitredly affordability isn't an issue for us, but having had and lost the World's Best Cleaner when she moved and then having gone through the faff of finding, employing then unemploying crap cleaners, I've given up: I'll just clean my own house.

I'm also a big fan of 'just move to a detached house!' when some poor sod, who is on their knees from lack of sleep, asks for advice about how to live below a herd of wildebeest without losing their mind.

I find the ‘block’ advice so strange, unless it’s about some really nasty person you absolutely can’t reason with.
But just to say what you have to say and then block the other before they have a chance to respond seems so childish.

Just do a big bowl of salad with it.

😂

For teenagers - turn off the WIFI/change the password. They'll soon fall into line.

I think it’s quite sensible really from the POV of protecting the mental health of the person who has started the thread, who is clearly getting wound up about it to have started a thread. At least if you’ve said what you need to say you are less likely to be tempted to go back and say more.
It means accepting you’re not going to change the person’s mind and tbh they are not going to think much of you for doing it but most of the time in the sort of row people post about those things are already the case. And half the time the recipient of the block isn’t going to be nearly as invested as the person starting the thread and might not even notice they have been blocked.

Get a ring doorbell.

And use your big girl voice.

I have solved many a financial problem by getting a lodger in. That isn't a euphemism either 😂
