I’m not falling for this thread you’re making it all up

😁

Conways · 23/10/2026 20:18

Pardon?

I’m sure wombats came into it at some point though I can’t remember when.

Absobeautely · 23/10/2026 20:19

There's loads of topics, at least 50 surely, it's about whatever posters make it.

Conways · 23/10/2026 20:20

Ok.

GrannyAchingsShepherdsHut · 23/10/2026 20:23

Mums. And nets.

And not mums. But definitely not net mums.

Well the thing is, when someone starts a thread with a very brief post like ‘Uncharted territory’ this is the kind of thread that happens & they gradually grow more random.

Anyway, welcome to MN, it has lots of threads that are about parenting but also loads of threads that aren’t. It might be the biggest mainly female chat site but I’m not sure.

Have a look round & dive in.

To be honest it popped up when asking chat gpt something and I thought let's give it a go, but the heading I suppose I was after wasnt in the drop down list hence 'uncharted territory'.

Terra incognita 😀.

What were you after?

Error404FucksNotFound · 23/10/2026 20:33

Its a forum. People use it to chat.
Its like reddit, discord, fb groups etc.

Support or advice maybe. Ive clearly come to the wrong place 😒

Did you not bother to look around first? Confused

EmpressaurusKitty · 23/10/2026 20:36

What do you want support or advice about?

Depends on what kind of support and advice you're after. What are you looking for?

Conways · 23/10/2026 20:37

Gosh I thought this would be welcoming yet its quite the opposite. How sad 😢

mondaytosunday · 23/10/2026 20:38

You will get support and advice if you actually ask for it. You will also get a fair amount of negative feedback but that’s par for the course with an anonymous forum. But you started badly. If you asked something like: what do most people use MN for? You might have received some more succinct replies. Your ‘uncharted territory’ means nothing and leaves it open to the responses you have had.

AuroraBloom · 23/10/2026 20:40

It's about rainbows and unicorns.

Conways · 23/10/2026 20:40

Ok thank you

AuroraBloom · 23/10/2026 20:41

My advice is if you want advice don't post in AIBU.
