I just peaked at middle class wankerism

[Buckarooo]

At a farm café... naturally. And daughter is on special diet, so she was eating her packed lunch. And she went to eat her apple ...I found my self saying "oh darling, let me wash your apple, it's got brioche crumbs all over it"

What a dick I am 🤣

So the OP said her dd was on a special diet, but you can't think of any reason why that would mean that brioche crumbs would be a problem? Ok.

As a mother of a child who went and goes through various specifics around her texture issues, I understand why that must be the case. ( Our daughter likes everything in separate plates, various foods not touching each other )

😄

We haven't yet had competitive under eaters who think that a whole apple is too much for a child, or the ones letting us know about the sugar content, but the thread is still off to a really good start.

I have a little book of all the things my (now adult) DD has said along these lines. We call them her ‘Little Lady Fauntleroy’ moments. For example, looking at a photo as a teenager she said ‘I loved that top but I lost it. Can’t remember if it was in Costa Rica or Switzerland’.

By calling it 'tea' you will always be swerving middle class anything.

Does anyone else hate the word darling?
I find it one of those words that makes me shudder.

hate speech at the middle class is still ok?

Hate speech? You don’t think you’re being teensiest bit dramatic.

It's always 'tea' on Saturdays. Any other day of the week it is 'dinner'.

Never 'supper' though. <cringe>

I had the exact same struggle. Ocado came to the rescue thankfully

You could have removed middle class from the post. First class wankerism, nowt posh about eating an apple love.

Hate speech?

Someone got out of the wrong side of bed today.

Mumsnet is so unhinged these days, these replies.

can someone complain about her wasting the crumbs and I will have a full bingo card?

I didn’t realise how middle class I am
until I moved an hour’s drive from my nearest Waitrose. Turns out I’d become accustomed to it as my corner shop.

Edited to add and we’re outside the delivery zone for Waitrose and Ocado. I plan a trip now and make an afternoon of it. Cafe, shop, inhale the middle classness. Make sure I buy a few bags for life so everyone knows where I’ve been 🤣

WTF are you on about??

Nice bit of generalisation there. Are you the same towards other groups or only the privileged?

Shouldn’t have been in the kid’s packed lunch, then, if that were the case here…
I suspect op’s point is that there’s somehow something elitist about brioche.
Bless.

They have a point…

I’m using the term as it is usually used.

so much trans wankerism, why do they plaster themselves in make up.

so much black wankerism, why do they pretend everything is about race.

for example.

middle class wankerism = eating a brioche and clearing away crumbs.

I peaked at goblin class wankering when I flung my entire stash of McDonald's packaging out of my car window while listening to SPAOW' on my stolen car radio.

It came out of the lunch box op had packed herself 😆

I wouldn’t necessarily see this as middle class behaviour

I'm not getting the brioche crumbs. Why was the apple covered in crumbs?

We are very working class but I remember my husband saying in Tesco “no, not that tin; it’s compromised” (it had a dent in it). The shame
