The issue is so so so so tiring!

It seems to go in circles and everywhere I go, this issue turns up.

Enough.

Heh heh. I'd have these threads banned:

  1. An old bat said something to me about breastfeeding/behaviour of my toddlers on the bus/in the supermarket.
  1. P & C parking spaces (or whatever the f they are)
  1. Ear piercing for babies.
  1. Circumcision ditto.
  1. What do you call your girls' parts?
  1. What state of readiness do I need my ladygarden in for birth?
  1. Why are my dishes covered in gritty stuff when they come out of the dishwasher?

We have had all these a gazillion times before ... and they will come up a gazillion times again.

sometimes I can't help myself though Grin

MattsBatt · 06/02/2011 18:25

Perhaps some people haven't been on MN as long as you have, and this is the first time they've taken part in one of these discussions? e.g. Me! So it's not as boring for us as it might be for you.

yabu
all debates go that way.

GwendolineMaryLacey · 06/02/2011 18:30

Can I please ban

  1. Formula fed babies will never enjoy good health or go to Oxbridge
  1. All Catholics are peadophiles but AIBU to want to lie my way into your schools
  1. You're a bastard if you take anything bigger than a micro scooter on the bus to carry your newborn in
  1. Fat people should pay everyone else's medical care because they're such a drain on society
  1. Anything at all about 'celebs'

I like this new censored MN :)

Normantebbit · 06/02/2011 19:20

Oh yes I'd forgotten the I work really hard and earn shed loads of money. You are onlt the feckless poor because you can't get your arses out of bed brigade.

Especially when they forget they trashed their first marriage by never being at home and then denies having a second husband despite having twins with him.

They can be banned too.
