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 🤣

Why have we spent this thread arguing about working vs middle class - if you're buying pink ladies, you're landed gentry and nothing less.

Nah just raised on Saturday morning American TV where everything was "ouch" and "jeez".

I actually thought my friends made up the joke a man walked into a bar ... ouch. You have blown my mind not even joking.

BeCleverViewer · 05/04/2025 20:47

Stop it Jane I was being angry tonight. Stop making me laugh.

I feel like I read it in a joke book at some point maybe? I can't remember! 😅

It’s one of the oldest and most common joke openers known to people from all supermarkets.

OP is humble-bragging.

I'm sorry OP but it does come across this way, especially that you've taken the time to post this online rather than it just being a quick remark in conversation with someone.

It's a bit like when people say something like - ''Last week I decided to go on holiday to Turkey via a last minute deal. I'm just SO CRAZY I am!! SO out there!! 🙃🤗''

In east London it was called unit if you couldn't be tamed in normal school. They bolted chairs to floor wild!

It literally doesn't at all..some of us use mumsnet as an alternative to rel life chats if we aren't meeting anyone or feeling a bit lonely... we could just give people the benefit of the doubt/ not be absolute wankers attacking innocuous posts from normal people on the Internet. Why don't you turn your sarcasm onto Trump/Musk on Twitter
