The Mumsnet Code

[ChippySauce]

Friend popped around earlier unexpectedly, without giving me 3 weeks warning 😮

AND DC11 let them in 😱

What is the world coming to I ask you!
Does nobody adhere to “The Mumsnet Code” anymore?
Whatever next, will we be advising each other to Keep The Bastard?!

I despair, I really do…

What violations of TMC has occurred in your life recently?

I clean my lavatory with a brush.

I never clean mine

DH cleans mine. With a brush. Sometimes.

I got reprimanded for something at work that wasn’t my fault but I didn’t use my words 😔

DH and I don't have an en suite bathroom but if we did we would probably poo in it.

I use bleach.

I went to the Sistine Chapel and I was quiet.

Also, I let my kids eat a (supermarket frozen) pizza last night and they didn't burst into tears and demand quinoa and organic raw kale instead. They... (gasp) ate the pizza. It wasn't even made by hand.

I snapped, but I didn't fart.

@SarfLondonLad what else are you going to clean it with??? My mind is boggling 🤣

Oh for God's sake, everyone knows that from Sunday - Thursday families can only ever eat the MN chicken. You can't have pizza until you've picked the chicken clean (which in my house would be by Monday evening at the latest)

I yelled at my teenage son yesterday

I've given up cleaning until my adult DS moves out hopefully soon. He destroys any effort I make.

I have an ensuite which I both

• use
• clean with toilet brush

Also happy for tradesmen to use my loo but tend to point them to the main one.

We had a chicken that didn't feed the whole family for a week even with a giant salad

I do not host.

I give hugs.
They're not even special edition un-mumsnetty hugs.

I went to IKEA and Aldi without asking what I should buy.

I know, I've really messed up here. Hope I don't get banned for not buying the Mumsnet chicken this week.

I'm drinking pimms on a Tuesday before 8pm and I've ordered a KFC 10 hot wings all for me.

If I had my way, you would be banned for life for sure <shakes head in disbelief>

I’m an extremely fussy eater <ducks>

I cooked the Mumsnet chicken this weekend, but I have only made 4 meals out of it, plus some sarnies.

Other than that I haven't needed to be talked down, reassured and my piss hasn't been boiled. It's been a quiet week.

I do a washing every day.

I don't like chicken 😐
