The most controversial topic ever.

Lets start with, lets say, the fruit shoot, and e numbers.

Feel free to debate any topic.

The FF v BF threads all seem to be taken as if the OP has asked if they are right to knife their children to death. It all gets a bit out of hand.

Midsommer Murders is so popular precisely because there are no ethnic minorities in it.

NOT my view - I have seen one episode of it and thought it was tosh. I just think the kind of older, conservative audience it attracts will like the fact that it's a throwback to a kind of England they wished still existed.

CBear6 · 16/03/2011 16:08

You have FF vs BF but within those you have many sub-debates which get people's backs up such as FF: room temp vs warmed up and make in advance vs make as needed or BF: exclusive vs supplemented and nipple shield vs no nipple shield to name but a few. Tis a minefield I tell ya! Best to just wean at birth and offer Fruit Shoots for refreshment, save all those arguments.

Kungfu Panda and Maisy Moo Cow! Am weeping with laughter!!

My cousin is a glassy-eyed dosser with a Croydon facelift and six children by seven different men. I think she's committing benefit fraud. AIBU to not give back the ounce of dope she left on my coffee table the other day, but bake it into DD's 5th birthday party cake instead?

swampster · 16/03/2011 16:16

I'd put that as my Facebook status if I had the guts, OTheHugeManatee!

FabbyChic · 16/03/2011 16:17

Oh look another thread posted by someone who is attention seeking, waving hands saying look at me I can post a topic about nothing! Aren't I clever.

ForkfulOfTabouleh · 16/03/2011 16:19

OHugeManatee - YABVU to think of homebaking the dope birthday cake.

You need to get into senior management at Waitrose and get it into the birthday cakes range. Wink

OTheHugeManatee · 16/03/2011 16:22

Forkful I don't believe in buying ready-made dope cake. What kind of an example does it set my children if they think they can just buy all the drugs they want, and never make their own? Hmm

Kungfupando Shock

YAVVVVVVVVVU. I mean FFS, how hard is it to use sentences and paragraphs. I couldn't read your post without my head exploding Angry

TandB · 16/03/2011 16:25

YABVU to want paragraphs in a thread title. You are lucky you got punctuation!

KaraStarbuckThrace · 16/03/2011 16:28

At least you can spell ;)

See that is where you missed a trick - you should have done it all in txt spk

TandB · 16/03/2011 16:31

I'm not biting! If you want that whole paragraph in txt spk then you translate it!

Kryshees · 16/03/2011 16:40

omg, I'm crying with laughter!!!!! cackles

PinkToeNails · 17/03/2011 12:08

kungfupannda you are funny.

What is Fabby's problem with EVERYTHING? Confused

peppapighastakenovermylife · 17/03/2011 12:09

kungfupanda - that is one of the funniest posts I have read on here Grin

Glitterknickaz · 17/03/2011 12:13

The disabled and their carers are not scrounging bastards bleeding the taxpayer dry.

SocialChameleon · 17/03/2011 12:19

did anyone mention grapes???

And I reckon that FabbyChic is not so Fabby after all, lighten up Fabby! It might never happen dude!

OTheHugeManatee · 17/03/2011 12:24

My MIL wants labiaplasty, and insists on showing us the really disturbing dangly bits while our DC are eating.

AIBU to tell her that cosmetic surgery is demeaning to women, and show her how to tie her labia majora into decorative knots instead?

I mean, it's not like she's getting any from my FIL.

Glitterknickaz · 17/03/2011 12:29

Manatee I'm thinking Labial Macrame could really take off Grin

Makingaminime · 17/03/2011 12:30

kungfoopanda I am thoroughly disappointed by your efforts.

You make NO MENTION of the pervs on every corner waiting to pounce on your little darlings at any opportunity, particularly while you are paying for petrol and leave them in the car?

ConfessionsOfAnAchingFanjo · 17/03/2011 12:31

Is my name good enough for MN royalty

and if it is

Would everyone with a name that looks even slightly like mine please name change immediately

Sn0wflake · 17/03/2011 12:31

Was fabby not joking?
