My mum always said to me "If you've nothing nice to say, then don't say anything at all"

[HolyFail]

Good Afternoon Campers!!! Hi-De-Hi!!!

Generally, I live my life by this rule you bunch of vipers

AIBU to respectfully request the winding up of the "Fed Up" threads?

Purely on the basis that when bad behaviour is 'rewarded' with a reaction, then any reaction is a good reaction so bad behaviour is therefore continued?? IYSWIM.

Too many whingers people complaining these days, what we're not allowed to say, what we can say, what we should do, what we shouldn't do etc etc - this in itself creates a platform for eejits to annoy us!

We are creating our own monsters, can't you see?

If we waited until we had something nice to say before we posted MN would implode. There would be so much sunshine and so many kittens and rainbows it would be unbearable.

My mum always said this too, although her cats bums face could convey a thousands words without her uttering a word....

I know hassled, but you get my point about the "creating a platform for eejits" don't you?

Pretty crap thread title tbh - apologies for that

YANBU. Enough is enough! I think there are officially more complaint threads now than there are threads being complained about.

Psammead - that's shocking. I might start a thread to complain. Or am I already on one?

I always say "If you haven't got anything nice to say, come sit by me!"

my mum always taught me

Tell the truth and be dammed

makes like so much more interesting

life

I don't know anymore Hassled. I feel like I am in a dream within a dream.

Could just be the drugs.

I did think that this thread would blend in with the 10 zillion other complaint threads but I had to get my message across.

We're all intelligent adults, surely we can see the sense in what I'm saying?

Crap thread title though, admittedly.

So hang on.

We have the huns
We have the hun haters
Now we have the hun hater haters.

Fine. Is it just me who has not actually seen anyone use the word hun in a non-ironic way? I seriously have not. I have noticed a few odd threads recently, and lots of hun hater threads, but no actual huns.

Are we chasing our own shadows here?

Yeah, except we're not all intelligent adults, some posters appear to have the IQ of a potato and the manners of an untrained chimp.

ha ha Psammead!

hun hater haters!!!

I'm not any kind of hater, well expect for creepy crawlies and barking dogs in the night, but that's another thread hey?

Just trying to say that by the "fed up" threads, the "untrained chimps with potato IQ" are using them as wind up fodder...IYSWIM ?

Anyway, it fell flat on its arse, oh well.

I always say this to my children (21 & 18 now). It comes out of Bambi; Thumper's mum says it to him when he's being rude about Bambi.....

I know, I know!

Sorry, it was more a convienient label than actually saying you are a 'hater'.

I do know exactly what you mean, and I agree with you. I am started to get more annoyed at the ironic threads than I am at the bizarre ones.

Christian I see you made your way over to post on the correct thread

My mother always told me never to be afraid to stand up for my opinions.

Was your mother very old fashioned and of the generation where women were expected to be seen and not heard then, OP?

My mother used to say it, too.

She was of the generation of being sick to death of her children bickering the whole day long....

Maryz - be what you like? pro hun, or anti hun, I do not intend to instigate a them and us situation.

It's not a complaining thread (honest) it's a gentle nudge thread

again, crap title though.

It would be sinister if people were lovely all the time and someone would just explode

No I dont want to play nice, I'm a real bitch I'll have you know

It's just a "stop fucking whinging" thread!

Fell flat on its arse though hey?

Friendships -My son never gets asked to parites.

I'm a working mum and I work full time which means I never do the drop off or pick up. My son is in reception and although he seems quite happy, he is never invited to parties. This has become an obsession for me and every day I look in his bag -to find that there is nothing. I feel that because I don't expecially know the other mums he is being left out. But then, I'm also concerned that it might be even worse than that and that other children simply don't want to ask him to their parites. He does not share much info about school but he says he's fine. I did go in and see his teacher and she said that in her opinion he was sociable. I'm just letting this issue really bother me. Yesterday, I found out that one of the children he talks about a lot had hosted a party and my son wasn't asked -he did not seem bothered. Do working mum's kids get left out of things because their mums can't organise playdates?

That's why I hardly post on anything. Sometimes something slips out by accident though.
