Following the other requests about a high earner board or those with first class honours I want a board for
People under 5ft 1 but over 5ft.
People who have a son and daughter.
What would you like to have.

A board for people who say "That isn't the gotcha you think it is" (which often isn't the gotcha they think it is).

And a board for people who say ...

^ This.

^^This! 😂

Pikelets vs Crumpets.

My grandad called them pikelets when he was alive. He was Northern. My Midlands-based arse calls them Crumpets. Warburtons do too.

Fight!

I am northern and I have no idea what a pikelet is

Port1aCastis · 09/10/2024 09:11

A board for people to say my car is an arse for driving me the wrong way into a ditch and punishing me badly by getting itself stuck in said ditch.and refusing to get out.

Altho tombola may be something different down south

I have come to the conclusion that we need a Yorkshire Board
Harrogate MNetters would not be allowed as they have Southern House Prices and there will be much controversary over whether to admit Hull - perhaps we will allow them in, then not, then do, then not.

Roll

No duck, it’s a cob. And the flat things with holes are pikelets

Bloom15 · 09/10/2024 12:53

A board for sensible people who agree it's a barm, Chris Hemsworth and Jensen Ackles are gorgeous and for whom grave would always be put on chippy chips over curry (so DH is out - the fiend)

FussyPud · 09/10/2024 13:14

My dad insisted that pikelets were the really flat variant, and crumpets were the chunkier ones.

Both are lush with mustard and cheese on, however.

I’d like a board for people who are quite content to not be exceptional at everything. Middlin’, as it were.

TheHangingGardensOfBasildon · 09/10/2024 13:31

A board for people who occasionally say/write i.e. when they actually mean e.g.

A board for buffalo girls who go around the INSIDE.

A odrba for people who enjoy solving anagrams.

A board for people who prefer cheese & onion scented Glade Plug-ins.

A board for people who hold the heartfelt belief that Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich would have been an even better band if they'd also had another member known as 'Pensive'.

Arraminta · 09/10/2024 13:35

A board where posters have to post in the style of Mumsnet circa 2010. Absolutely zero need to ever put 'Lighthearted' in the thread title and considerably better spelling, punctuation and grammar.

Roll

It's a teacake. Those with fruit in are currant teacakes. It's taken me over 40 years living here to say it without shuddering.

Mrsredlipstick · 09/10/2024 13:44

A board for those looking for a 'bun fight' and are happy to admit it.

I'm joining the sloverns and sweary one.

A teacake is sweet irrespective of currants. A roll is savoury and something you use for sandwiches.

Yes, creepy wee brackets will be mandatory. Sorry not sorry

I have been thinking about how we could divide society a little more effectively by apportioning ever smaller spaces so that people only have to interact with people they agree with. Perhaps we could have a ‘me’ board personal to each user with a set of AI chat bots that reinforce their prejudices and preferences and always vote YANBU.

Great idea
I want a Hoppinggreen board.
I would probably still argue with myself though and get banned for a personal attack

A board for people who hold their cutlery in opposite hands to what is deemed 'normal' . Makes me so cross when people say it's rude !

I'm always baffled by that. How could it possibly be rude?

ForYouManImADoomBoy · 09/10/2024 15:21

a come at me bro board. no holds barred, NO MERCY DANIEL SAN

ForPearlViper · 09/10/2024 15:45

A board for people who have lived all over the 'North' and have got it wrong so many times they now just point at the small bread adjacent items and say 'I'll have one of those'.

It would also be nice to have a board where every issue women over 50 have is not immediately put down to menopause or early onset dementia.

ReadWithScepticism · 09/10/2024 16:48

Yes, it would be good to have a Not The Menopause board. We could also have a Not Autism board and a Not ADHD board. Or perhaps we could merge these onto a No, I'm Just Screwed Up in Some Sort Of Unlabelled Manner board

Babbadoobabbadock · 09/10/2024 17:56

A board for Lancashire folk where they can lob barn cakes at Yorkshire folk, who will lob bread cakes back. Then we can all have a scrap in a ginnel and go out without our coats
