To wonder how some posters seem to know everything about everything...

[mightybright]

Some posters pop up on threads of varied and often complicated topics and manage to have a well formed opinion on it, know all the facts and figures and put their point accross eloquently? Makes me feel a bit dim at times AIBU?

[also smug as she is sat in dh's flight deck jersey and a banana clip that appears to have survived the 1980's and ended up in my hair....]

Bohica, no it's the random nobbers actively looking for fisticuffs that are vexing me also what's with all the cyclist threads ..... is cycling the new breastfeeding?

Look BOF actually has a guide to the shrug Chaos!!!!!

and it has her picture too

Self service should be said in a breathy husk, yet demonstrated in a firm manner. With a lean forward whilst peering over your specs. With tousled hair if possible. Perhaps a pencil behind your ear on which you will lightly suck whilst demonstrating the correct way to confidently insert a text into the requisite hole of aforementioned machine. Feck me being a librarian's sexy.

[delusional]

some of us are just true polymaths, you know

I know everything, as I'm fucking great and clever but I won't tell you what I know as it's top secret, so torturing me won't work.
If I don't know it I make it up :)

Showy, I quite fancy you now...

It's because we spend too much time on the internet - nearly every conversation has come up before in one form or another.

You know what, I was so expecting a bitchy thread.

How come the same people pop up on every thread, talking like they know everything, acting like the own the place?

That kind of thing

I know stuff because I am old and have been around the block.

I am a mother

of course I know everything

aright there Mother Fucker..

not quite what i meant to say

BoF, that is the correct response. Later, I'll release my bun from its pinned up prison and shake my hair, whip off my glasses and just settle into my striking yet still bookish good looks which up until this point my strict demeanour has only hinted at. You will of course be prostrate with desire by this point.

I am feeling inspired to do some librarian chic tomorrow.

(today I am not at work so no-one would be around to appreciate it)

I think I am channelling librarian chic today, in fact

I have a long skirt on, a grey vest top and one of those long grey short-sleeved cardi's with the white edging

I have my glasses on (can't be arsed with contacts today)

oh, and Birkenstocks

With socks?

no socks

did I stuff it up ?

I have a great deal of affection for librarians

one of my closest school friends became one

she dresses just like a librarian though, there is absolutely no denying it

Do you guys all know each other from mumsnet or are you friends in RL too?

As for knowing everything I have gathered that if I listen to radio four, hang around on mumsnet and wait the 10 years til I'm forty I will know everything something to look forward to!

RL?

There is no RL.

Once you're hooked on MN, you can kiss that goodbye.
