to think new posters shouldn't be ridiculed?

I'm not being unreasonable in any way, I'm just getting sick of new posters who aren't sure of the way the land lies getting ripped into by threads full of frothing "I'm better than you because I can spell" up their arse Mumsnetters. Being able to spell or not means nothing. Do people really think they are superior over someone just because they can spell better? Newsflash: you aint.
Now froth away, I'm not wrong so don't give a shit

Oh I see, I am so old and out of touch. My dd "lols on the inside", so she says. I have pointed out that this is not possible but she just gives me a hard stare.

KindleTheSky · 02/01/2011 16:43

biscuit might do for that

KindleTheSky · 02/01/2011 16:44

"We were like, so loling on the inside during French"

KindleTheSky · 02/01/2011 16:46

Actually, a biscuit doesn't look like a groin at all. I am dillusional.

ilythia · 02/01/2011 19:17

If Biscuit is what your groin looks like then you really need to see a doctor.

jugglingjo · 02/01/2011 20:50

So, is a Bear friendly or un-friendly ?

I've seen a bear in the wild when we lived in northern Japan (for a year), and we didn't stop to find out if it was friendly then !

My cuddly panda has always been a good friend though, so all in all it's very Confused for us newbies LULZ
( laughing under large zebra, or something ! )

porcamiseria · 02/01/2011 21:42

i fucking hate the pedantic twats that go on about spelling, its a flipping web forum not university challenge

i also hate the cliquey arse lickers too, the ones that coo over scottishmummy and anyfucker, not that I have anything against them I just hate it when people fawn over them

anyway....

mummyloveslucy · 02/01/2011 22:12

People used to have a go at my spelling, now I think they just accept that it's crap. It dosn't bother me that much as I know it to be true.

Mind you, I also know that I have a slightly chunkier backside than I'd like, but wouldn't be too impressed if someone felt the need to tell me, so.....Hmm

emmyloulou · 02/01/2011 22:57

YANBU, it's noticable.

What's even funnier is when you say something and it's either ignored, or there is outrage............

Then along comes a poster who has been posting yonks, and you see, "I agree with xyz".

Like wtf, I just said exactly that earlier on the thread. It's getting better though Xmas Smile
