Unpopular opinions for the LIGHTHEARTED not the FAINTHEARTED! (iv)

[allsquareknickersnofurcoat]

Right then, lets keep it clean like 99% of the last one :)

Unpopular opinions specific to Mumsnet site

1 boastful bullshtters like LeQ need to have the pss ripped out, not ars*licked

2 breastfeeding thread posters shouldnt be told to shut up when they admit bf is bloody hell and most people f*cking hate it and are relieved when they put their baby (and themselves) on the bottle - bye bye long grey boobs + earth mother hair shirts, hello husband, you don't need to ogle that sexy young intern now

3 FB related posts are a waste of everyones precious life - get over yourself and get a real life

4 its OK to disagree with someone without dancing round the subject and adding loads of smiley faces in case they start crying

5 if you ask for an opinion about your DC and ppl tell you it had brattish behaviour, don't argue about it, remember you asked & take notice, its only what everyone in RL was thinking

OK, well, here goes........... LeVraiVerite - maybe not great to make a personal attack about a poster on a thread that's meant to be light-hearted and taken with a pinch of salt.

I actually agree with points 3-5.

point 2 -

Have to second re point 2.

Have to completely agree with Salmo re point 1. Perhaps you should take this up with LeQueen herself.

Point 3 -

Point 4,5 - yup, agree.

Hi Jacks - was "afeert" for a while there that it would all go pear-shaped!

How's the Ommmmming?

Just joshing!

Another unpopular opinion:

Shove treats in the general direction of your grandchild to stop them grizzling and smile indulgently at their naughtiness -they will love you for it and it is not bribery going to do them any harm.

It's perfectly acceptable to be as excited as a schoolgirl looking forward to a weekend away when you are old and decrepit ....... like me!

Very excited, I am!!

Hola ladies, we is here. Get this, 44 people on flight. Landed ahead of time and it took FIFTEEN mins from landing to standing outside gatwick south. NEVER has that happened and I doubt it'll happen again. Only one downside - they sent one of my cases to Valencia???? Ho hum, should be here in a couple of days.

Happy Landings Boo. Sorry about your case. No doubt you'll get it back in time for going back

Hi Salmo and Jack,

LVV - well, point number one sounds like a personal gripe.
No 2 - Started fair enough but then you stepped on your own point after a while.
No 3,4 and 5 - Fair enough.

Hi Fooofy, Salmo, Boo etc... just popping in to keep this in my Threads I'm on, I have had literally no time, am on a course all weekend - oh yeah, I told you guys about it, the yoga teacher training - and it's my birthday today [shameless :o] so have really no time at all to hang out and MN.

Happy Birthday Jack. Trusting that you have been suitably spoilt......

My hate for the day is people barging on buses when I have clearly been standing at the stop longer, and I have a small person in a buggy AND they get off one stop (200yds) later.

I had a great birthday! Someone in my yoga teacher training class found out it was my birthday, and got a birthday card and everyone signed it... I nearly cried. :)

DH and DS spoiled me rotten - I got to have a lie-in until 9 am and then I had a shower by myself (rather than with DS climbing in halfway), and then we went out to brunch, and then I had the YTT in the afternoon. Was a great day.

How's everyone?

Any unpopular opinions today?

I have one, and it might be truly unpopular, as well as slightly hypocritical (PFB syndrome ) - yes, you've just had a baby, and yes, it's the greatest thing you've ever done... but please, we don't need a new picture on FB Every Bleeding Day showing "daddy and daughter nap", "daddy and daughter date at nearby cafe", "baby decided she needed to sleep in the big bed with mommy"... yes, your baby is adorable (she truly is), but seriously... get a grip.

In my defence, I wasn't on FB when Jack was a wee tiny baby or I might have done similar shite... on the other hand, I think I might have had enough self-control to realize that not everyone thinks the sun shines out of my PFB's arse... then again, maybe not...

Afternoon Jack - glad you had a fab birthday!

Agree with your unpopular opinion - Facebook wasn't invented when mine were born but I don't think we bored passing strangers with baby photos anyway.

And I've no desire to wade through other people's.

Shoes with heels so high your foot is vertical are ridiculous and a Bad Thing.
Tiny boys (i.e.. toddlers) look ridiculous in kilts as they always slip down and end up hanging off the boy in question.
"Made-Up" new tartans are also vile and horrible. Don't do it OK?
