The shortening of narcissistic to narc gets on my nerves, for some reason. It always looks like it's a shortened form of trhe word narcotic.

'My child has been accepted at a top grammar school'

'I went to a top university'

'My DH works for a top company'

Fuck off.

Can anyone explain the NC levels??? My DC is Level 10, but is this OK at the end of year 3? Should I get a tutor?

Why do people always say when they are giving their first biscuit.

Dogsby · 28/07/2011 19:53

I also lol at preparing for an 11plus= coaching a barely intelligent gibbering loom to jump through hoops.
As all grammar schools only have thickos in them

My q is always " if coaching idiots is so easy why aren't you doing it?"!!

Gosh I feed a family of 5 for £40 a week how can you possibly spend more than that - do you live on caviar?

PerryCombover · 28/07/2011 19:55

I am a lazy wotsit who spends my entire day on here pontificating in the style of drunken Irish uncle
"My house is a tip and the children are wild ruffians..whatever am I to do?"

Everyone

"Maybe you are depressed?"

StealthPolarBear · 28/07/2011 19:55

don't understand how people measure the length of their labour.

Whenever anyone talks about doing something nice for their child's first birthday they get told they won't remember it. Well no, but they can live in the now for a little while, otherwise it'd be bread, water and the same old dull book until they were 3.

Oh and whenever song lyrics are being discussed someone always claims they are about drugs, knowingly.

And especially for Dogsby 'oooh I've got a great christmas tradition - new pjs for the children on christmas eve'

Dogsby · 28/07/2011 19:58

Hate conscious development of traditions. It's so twee.

I think the 1st birthday of first kid should be vast Piss up

Q: "my child is having a rubbish time at school/ is gifted, what should I do"
A: "Why don't you home-school them?"

Like giving up work altogether is a realistic option for the entire population.

PerryCombover · 28/07/2011 20:02

I earn £100k but in these tough times I've made everyone my Christmas gifts this year. They will love them and the thought I have put in

The ones who think they are the fucking MN police and moan that a thread shouldn't be in aibu - arses

PerryCombover · 28/07/2011 20:16

good point

why is this in aibu?

LineRunner · 28/07/2011 20:16

The ones who OP and then appear under a different guise and argue with themselves, for attention.

Too soon?

Dogsby · 28/07/2011 20:18

Well tbh The intension was for the thread to be a lot mire angry and cross. Someone to mention cliques arse licking, bibitty to come on all cross etc

But it was too nice. So the answer is "
Because I wanted a row". but I HAVE LOST THE NACK

MynameisnotEarl · 28/07/2011 20:29

I do enjoy the "my DS is 4 yrs old and bites, kicks, nips, pinches, shouts and swears. I've tried cuddles, more attention, treats, ignoring the bad behaviour but it doesn't seem to work, what can I do?"

I sooo want to say, "Smack him. Hard." Spoilt little bastard.

TheBigJessie · 28/07/2011 20:29

Ooh, I have another one. Random fishy allusions in threads!

TheMonster · 28/07/2011 20:31

MynameisnotEarl, I'm with you on that one!!!!!
