norfolk what was in that lambrusco wine we were drinking? i have lost the ability to read properly.

Please tell me that last post was an ironic joke - please!

NorfolkNChance · 13/05/2011 12:01

It is the only hope for humanity.

Is all that wine why I have been throwing up again? DD was very sweet and came to stroke my head, admittedly she then tried to shove her dummy in my mouth but hey the thought was there!

confuddledDOTcom · 13/05/2011 12:02

I've posted over there Blush it's really made me angry reading that thread.

Anyone else notice the constant MN digs? Is it always like that?

Summerbird73 · 13/05/2011 12:13

which thread did you read confuddled? the one i was on kept making vague references to MN - the op said to me (whilst flaming me) that she thought she had accidentally wandered over to 'another forum' Hmm

confuddledDOTcom · 13/05/2011 12:25

Yeah, those digs!

confuddledDOTcom · 13/05/2011 14:01

Oh now I'm getting stick! Wonder how long I'll last for...

Bohica · 13/05/2011 14:06

Is it the 22 week scan one?

confuddledDOTcom · 13/05/2011 14:08

People are posting on the 22 week one and the mumsnet one.

Confuddled where are you posting - you dont have to give your name just a clue - i shall nip over with my trusty steed and defend you!

Bohica · 13/05/2011 14:59

Well I see no-one wants to reply to my post on the MN one! Grin

bohica was it the froot shoots one! Grin

amberleaf · 13/05/2011 15:40

Just reading the 22 week scan thread...only on page 1 but my god SJ what an insensitive twonk!

amberleaf · 13/05/2011 15:43

..and obviously i am not Amber U !!

Summerbird73 · 13/05/2011 15:50

amber keep reading, myself and another couple of posters mentioned miscarriages and she goes way beyond the realms of insensitive - and gets backed up by the majority! Shock

amberleaf · 13/05/2011 16:10

Wow! unbloodybelievable!

Im just shaking my head at the responses backing up her insensitive claptrap!

I too dont like the 'as long as its healthy' shit either. I know why people say that but as the mum of a child with SN its rankles with me.

I suppose they'd be disappointed with a child with a disability as well as the wrong sex too?

[realises why i try to keep away from NMs]

Bunch of knobs

pickyourbrain · 13/05/2011 16:14

I once wrote apost on there with ''fuck" in it and they kindly 'd it for me automatically. How rude! That was the end of my short NM career.

Also a large proportion of women using the words 'bubs' and 'hubby' also 'hun' and 'yummymummy' wrong, just wrong.

What i will say though, contraversially, I am on the stepmums board on MN a lot and we often get a fair bit of stick. Well... the step mums board over there is outrageous even turned my stomach and I am wicked step mother of the year!

FunnysInTheGarden · 13/05/2011 16:22

Just went and had a look at the thread over on NM and am laughing my socks off that the thread was started to complain about MN and ended by most of the contributors saying actually NM is fine, but I prefer MN. What a way to shoot yerself in the foot..............

confuddledDOTcom · 13/05/2011 16:23

Amber, glad it's not just me then!

I'm not suggesting people don't wish for a healthy baby, yes we'd all prefer to have a healthy baby but the "as long as it's healthy nothing else should matter" line is what gets me. I don't care if people have a preference for a boy or girl, it's a legitimate preference but that line is horrid!

There's been another page since I went out so got to go and check on it Confused

amberleaf · 13/05/2011 16:26

I like being able to swear here! I know not everyone appreciates swearing but its so patronising the way they mod fuck bollocks bastard naughty words!

Gah i just hate it! all of it!

I will have to have a look at the stepmums board pickyourbrain as ive not ventured onto there at all!

amberleaf · 13/05/2011 16:30

confuddledDOTcom Nooo its definitely not just you!

I may have to rejoin and get banned again to challenge a few posts over there!

I hate that they use your real name too, first time i joined and saw that i immediately reregistered under a false name! my real name is not Amber so i may join as Amber somethingorother on there if i do.

Watch that space.....

crazynanna · 13/05/2011 16:31

Well,here is my 2p worth as a NM orphan here....

I joined NM's over a year ago,and for the first 6 months,I loved it. There were a few like-minded people who could debate adult-like,and had a sense of humour. Then it got bad,around election time,and the Benefit Bashers and other Bashers were in full swing,and being the scummy Socialist that I am,well,I nearly got banned LOADS of times (one particular bitch mod hated me). Then I noticed all the like-minded people left one by one (I presume to here),and I didn't log on for months.
Went back recently...and promptly joined up here Grin

confuddledDOTcom · 13/05/2011 16:31

Oh dear I got even more stick when I was gone! Anyone want to help?
