As per the title.... what have you done in the real word that would have Mumsnetter's frothing at the mouth?

I will start.
Someone reversed into my (parked) car and we sorted it out ourselves (without informing insurance!😲) with them paying us to get it fixed (which has now been done).
Gosh..... aren't we naughty!🤣🤣🤣🤣

I'd be more worried about someone stealing my car whilst engine is running and I'm packing my work bag 😳

I live in a little off shoot of a cul de sac. The whole street is kind of hidden away with no reason to go down but my little side street is way at the end with the cars concealed by bushes and needs a 5 point turn to actually get the car out so the risk is really very low

I found another one today. I pop out 5 mins before I have to leave on a frosty morning to turn car engine on to defrost windscreen while I pack my work bag and get the dog organised. That 5 mins from my low emission car with an engine smaller than most motorbikes is apparently responsible for global warming (never mind the 45 minutes of crawling traffic I and thousands of others have sit in after for my commute). On mumsnet I’d be banished from society but in really life plenty people do exactly the same

But you’re not ‘sitting in traffic’, OP. You are the traffic.
