...to think that all these women have really dragged MN into the gutter?

When I first posted on here ooooh, about three months ago (for advice on how to get my little girl to sleep) MN was just a nice supportive community of men pretending to be women and some dogs. We got to know each other. I soon learnt that Anyfucker is actually Jeff from the Prince of Wales who leans on the far end of the bar and says "I really love you" to anything wearing a skirt. Scottishmummy is actually a border terrier... we all skipped happily from thread to thread calling people abusers and telling anyone who'd listen that they were 'better than that' and to 'ditch the self-preening cock-bastard.'

Sorry for going all misty eyed on everybody, but it was just lovely.

And then you lot all came along. Women. Brimming with hatred, overflowing with coarse and vulgar language and wanting to start a fight with anyone who so much as suggests that they might think that, actually, having a nanny doesn't make you a twat or that how much Calpol you give DD isn't really that big a deal.

Leave us alone. Please. It was nice, like being in a summer meadow. You're forcing us all out into things like pubs to watch stuff like sport. And then you'll just write about us on here as if you were cheating with our online selves the moment our backs were turned. It hurts. We have feelings.

Sorry. Its late, I'm bored and wifey's just walking through the door so I'd better turn this off right now....

A man???

manicbmc · 03/02/2011 22:35

Well I have applied 'Man' liberally. He doesn't mind though so long as I don't nudge his mouse hand. Grin

No Top Gear on Dave tonight then?

JamieLeeCurtis · 03/02/2011 22:37

Oh God - I thought I could smell something .....

LadyOfTheManor · 03/02/2011 22:38

Yes BeerTricks I wandered through a few threads, and they're literally everywhere.

Reminds me of being a girls' boarding school if a man (dad, brother etc) came into the house, there was an alarm they had to press to alert half naked girls Hmm to get in their rooms or not leave the shower etc.

We need one of those for MN. To change the topic of discussion :o

LittleMissHissyFit · 03/02/2011 22:39

deepheat, don't tarnish us all eh?

My theory is that it's the winter, Snot Season... The Long Winter of the Hacking Cough, the Era of the Elevated Temperature.

We've had DMs, MILs and Christmas to contend with, New Year, and the entire shitty month of January.

Things ought to start getting better soon...

manicbmc · 03/02/2011 22:39

Should we be discussing tea and biscuits? Grin

I like a fruit shortcake.

where?

LDNmummy · 03/02/2011 22:43

LOL!!!

My DP just joined MN and was wondering were all the dads were in dadsnet. I'm gonna have to break the unfortunate news to him that us women have scared them all off down the pub.

I will send him down the Prince of Wales to chat to Jeff next time he needs some advice.

Or knitting? Shall we talk about knitting? Or I could crochet us all some nice penises?

JamieLeeCurtis · 03/02/2011 22:46

But he and Jeff will just end up talking about Football, and possibly Carmen Electra
