AIBU or has MN become infested by strange people who are asking very odd questions, are making mountains out of molehills and who can't spell /use grammar properly!

[Rhinestone]

If you know what I mean then you'll get what I'm saying! There just doesn't seem to be any normal threads anymore! What's going on?

[empirestateofmind]

YANBU I have been looking in Active Conversations and there is very little I want to read.

Plus I have started to hide threads where the OP can't even be bothered to preview the title and hence mucks it up. I (unfairly quite probably) judge .

I must confess that I have developed a B3ta habit. It makes me laugh.

[ScousyFogarty]

There is not much which is rational being posted here. So what is the originator of this thread really trying to achieve?

[shineoncrazydiam0nd]

Started the same thread as this weeks ago. I think that this is how MN is now. it is not an invasion or a one off thing but just how it is.

Depressing.

ShineOn I also started a thread like this the other night.

I feel I may be leaving MN soon. Today has been horrid on here. :( I feel sick at some of the discussions.

I was also at my GP's this morning and she had told me to go on nice pregnancy sites, I told her I was on MN and she laughed and said " That's worse than googling illnesses! It's a load of loons on there now!".

[fluffybutt]

Never been on NM, don't use HUN, may give the occasional XX,(in my defence I am rather affectionate), haven't sworn at anyone yet, I admit to having started rather tedious AIBU a couple of times,(didn't mean to, the last one just kind of took off and is still going) what does that make me? Hun, normal, boring. Go on tell me, I promise not to be offended. Well if I am I will flounce and name change, and come back as someone else. :o

[omnishambles]

Agree with Shiney - its been odd since the election and then from about Feb this year it got odder.

Am coming on here less and less.

[HolyFail]

perhaps those of us waiting on entertainment should actually pull our fingers out and start entertaining IYSWIM.

Or, as I say to many whingers people in RL, perhaps we should stop moaning about the things we have made no effort to change.....

[BitOfFun]

One person can't be especially entertaining by themselves though- it requires a critical mass of intelligent funny posters for the banter to flow. And the Huns are overpowering us.

I think I'm off.

But I have no self-discipline, who am I kidding?

[HolyFail]

I take it back, you will understand if you read the "Old bidder with the spraying sprog at the self service checkout" thread.

That's 5 minutes of my life I will never get back.

YANBU

[StrawberryMewMew]

I just read that one HolyFail.

[usualsuspect]

That thread has to be a regular on a wind up ,surely

I bloody well hope so ,or I'm definitely off

[StrawberryMewMew]

I think it must be a wind up Usual....

[fifi25]

I am assuming that people have numbers after their names as a lot more people are using this site due to publicity. I know i picked a few usernames before xmas and nothing was available. Most people i assume would just stick a number after their username after repeatedly being told the name is already taken.

[StrawberryMewMew]

Fifi Then people just have to think of stranger usernames.

[HolyFail]

nah in the current MN climate, a regular wouldn't post that amount of shite! would they??

[BitOfFun]

Why do people do that though? Surely if the name is taken already, you should just choose something else?

[usualsuspect]

I think the numbers on the end of names is a bit odd

[fifi25]

I know but when you get 3 or 4 chuked back you think sod it and stick a number on. I might change mine actually if someone tells me how i do it

[LadyBeagleEyes]

Well I replied to that thread assuming it's a regular on a wind up.
I can't believe it's real so I answered in the same vein.
I thought it would be fun.
Shit

[usualsuspect]

lolz

[AmazingBouncingFerret453628]

That thread has to be a wind up!

[BitOfFun]

One happy outcome from all this crap recently is that I feel positively warm towards posters whom I previously considered complete arseholes.
