One of my facebook friends posted this as her status:

'So you ask... do I work? Uh yes, I work 24 hours a day. Why? Because I am a mom. I am an alarm clock, a cook, a maid, a teacher, a nanny, a nurse, a handyman, a security officer, a judge/jury, a photographer, a counselor, a chauffeur, an ATM, a jungle gym & a comforter. I don't get holidays, sick pay or days off. I work through the DAY & NIGHT. I am on call at ALL hours. Re-post if you are proud to be a mom!!!'

I commented 'lazy bitch' AIBU?

I hate that kind of post - hers, not yours.

So everyone who washes their clothes is a maid, someone who makes themselves a sandwich is a chef, someone who snaps a photo is a photographer?

It's complete crap!

And what's with the 'mom' bit? Is she American, or has she just copied and pasted it from junk mail?

I think those ridiculous 'copy and paste' bollocks posts on facebook are fair game for any comment. I loathe them.

I hope she's a really good friend :o.

I hate those copy and paste craps. I am at home with dd, some days suck, but some days I get to lounge on the grass OB the sunny back garden playing with stacky cups. Swings and roundabouts (well, they were yesterday.)

diabolo · 08/04/2011 19:03

I can't stand this kind of thing, it's like a chain letter. What a load of bollocks!

You're not unreasonable, but she might not be your friend for much longer.

NinkyNonker · 08/04/2011 19:04

in the sunny back garden...

kerala · 08/04/2011 19:08

Utterly cringeworthy am embarrassed for her.

expatinscotland · 08/04/2011 19:08

I have a 'friend' who posts stuff like this all the time. Only rarely does she post anything else. Might 'hide' her. :o

NinkyNonker · 08/04/2011 19:13

I have a cull every so often, and lots hidden. I think I'm a bit anti-social. Grin

Bloodymary · 08/04/2011 19:14

Erm, is that not what we all do? (she is a silly cow).

Gooseberrybushes · 08/04/2011 19:14

Of course you are. It's appalling uncouth. What kind of person posts a message saying "lazy bitch"?

Ew.

gordyslovesheep · 08/04/2011 19:15

Oh I hate that kind of bollox on FB - you are NBU - she sounds like a prick Grin

Zippylovesgeorge · 08/04/2011 19:18

I hate those copy & paste things - according to FB its been 'xxxx awareness week' for the past year!!

I also hate those stupid polls that are on there at the moment and any statue update my SisIL does!

Zippylovesgeorge · 08/04/2011 19:18

that would be 'status'

YouaretooniceNOT · 08/04/2011 19:24

So being a SAHM constitutes being a lazy bitch? Seriously? Hmm

Well NO obiously NOT seriously Wink

atswimtwolengths · 08/04/2011 19:28

I think 'lazy bitch' should refer to the woman copying and pasting something from a junk email and trying to pass it off as her own original thoughts.

YouaretooniceNOT · 08/04/2011 19:28

gordyslovesheep - please explain - Confused

YouaretooniceNOT · 08/04/2011 19:29

Oh i get it HAHAHAHAHA - OK OP!

seeker · 08/04/2011 19:30

She was being a sanctimonious git.

But calling someone a "lazy bitch" is seriously icky.

So yes, I think you were being unreasonable. And unpleasant.

gordyslovesheep · 08/04/2011 19:30

also this is her MATE - she is being cheeky/sarcastic !

tifflins · 08/04/2011 19:34
