(original smug thread was in AIBU so this seemed like the right place for it)

For those who don't remember, [[http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/762767-The-SMUG-thread-An-amnesty-if-you-will-Come-and here it , the SMUG AmnESTY IN ALL ITS GLORY}}

So, two years on are you still smug about the same things? Have your good eaters turned fussy? Are your home-ground spices still beautifully arranged in jars? Have your children still never had a filling?

Everyone says that being smug is a magnet for karma to come and bite you on the arse, but has it?

It's funny looking at all the names from 2 years ago and seeing who is still around lots and who has either namechanged or left.

This was my all time favourite thread. Ever.

I remember having a sense of humour failure and thinking ' This reality is a right cock ... '

And now? She is one of my best buddies. And i still think she's a bit of a cock

Looking back I'm wondering if I should have linked - I am sucking up to you loads because you were famous, having only recently done the penguin thing. Blush

I can't get that to work, could someone post a link please :)

MarianneM · 22/05/2011 18:53

I was not in the original thread, but I am very smug about many things, and have been for years. Still, life keeps treating me very well. At least I'm trying to be thankful for it.

I can't remember what I was smug about, but I'm sure that I am just as fabulous as I ever was.

Who was the loon on that thread that called Sycamoretree 'vile'? They were funny.

TrillianAstra · 22/05/2011 18:54

Last time I was smug because I had made cake for a friend who had just had a baby. Another friend has had a baby this year and I haven't actually seen the baby even though it is nearly 4 months old.
