The real Mumsnet rules are that you don't post a non-Aibu question in Aibu.

If you don't know the difference between an Aibu question and a non-Aibu question then you are not a real Mumsnetter.

If you can't answer a plain Yabu or Yanbu to a question in an Aibu thread then the question simply doesn't belong there. Hth.

MissBeehiving · 19/08/2011 22:22

Grin I'm sorry Mme but I have a mental picture of you as a latter day ascerbic Maria Von Trapp, not lightly given to bursts of cunt or bumsex.

ThePrincessRoyalFiggyrolls · 19/08/2011 22:25

You must post about anything that can be popped/poked/proded/squeezed and may be a spot/boil/cyst that we can then name. You will be heralded if you can take photo's.

More gross is better.
If you don't like it Feck off to NM pronto and bloody well stay there.

Pagwatch · 19/08/2011 22:25

Yes yes.
And if people are having conversations about things like DVDA or other abominations do not click on any links. Ever.
It is a whole world of information you do not need to possess.

(and if you are on your iPad and forget to close links then you will need to be very quick witted when chatting later with your dh. or the elderly ladies on the next table in cafe Nero).

Also never open any link in public. Just in case.

AgentZigzag · 19/08/2011 22:26

The compulsary answer to 'Shouldn't this be in chat?' is 'lol', and that's in the MN Talk Guidelines under Trolls and troublemakers, breach it, and you'll find yourself with a NM registration.

The Truth.

Pagwatch · 19/08/2011 22:28

Never complain about the swearing on mn unless you are attempting to break the world cuntywankchops per minute record

AgentZigzag · 19/08/2011 22:28

When you speaketh of The Truth, banging a gavel will persuade any poster reading it.

ThePrincessRoyalFiggyrolls · 19/08/2011 22:28

also you are banned if you don't like Pinot's kittens or Pag's house and dog.

LoopyLoopsTootyFroots · 19/08/2011 22:28

"I've been dead twice this month"

Eh?

Also, I must apologise for this AIBU, obviously IABU. Not sure why it's here, thought we were in chat. Blush

Loopy, toffee dodgers are vile, that is all Grin

Pagwatch · 19/08/2011 22:29

If you are in tech and post
Test: please do not post

...well . Honestly?

Pagwatch · 19/08/2011 22:29

Fucking right princess!

MmeLindor. · 19/08/2011 22:30

MissB
That description has totally made my day. Grin

DilysPrice · 19/08/2011 22:30

The Rule of MN is that Things Were Better In the Old Days...blah blah blah Cod blah blah blah.

But I lurked a bit in the old days, and distinctly remember that BD, for Baby Dancing was on the official abbreviation list, and otherwise reasonable-sounding MNers actually used it! I came back a couple of years later and it had been replaced with SWI, so who says there's no such thing as progress?

Rowena8482 · 19/08/2011 22:34

Bit of a long story Loopy, and I'm not touting my woes for sympathy hugs and biscuits at all so relax Grin but I dropped dead two weeks ago and had to be zapped by the nice paramedics (four times) and my chest had to be jumped on and all that to get me going again, so technically, the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth - I was dead twice. And I was swizzed - SWIZZED I say cos there wasn't one scrap of white light, or a tunnel, or an angel with a harp or a loved one smiling or anything! very disappointing in fact. And then I get home to find that all three sons still at home and DH have been peeing happily all over the seat and the bathroom floor but not one of them has managed to pick up a lovely lemony disinfectant wipey thing and bloody well clean up after themselves :| or wash a pot, or do any laundry. I wouldn't care but my youngest DS, age 4, knows perfectly well how the washer works...

LoopyLoopsTootyFroots · 19/08/2011 22:34

Apparently you must only tell someone they are MN royalty if you want to mortally wound them. It's like the kryptonite of Mumsnet.

LoopyLoopsTootyFroots · 19/08/2011 22:35

Oh my God! What happened? (Not the cleaning btw, the incident that led to the lack of cleaning).

AgentZigzag · 19/08/2011 22:36

Shock at you making it back to us rowena.

Glad you did.

AgentZigzag · 19/08/2011 22:37

Well I always thought of you as royalty loops

Grin
ThePrincessRoyalFiggyrolls · 19/08/2011 22:38

Rowena Grin - well obviously not about the dying twice thing but you know

BD - what the fuck is that? and SWI? still don't know. Am not royalty but have been here regularly in different guises for a good couple of years and never come across that - must be on the wrong thread Grin

LoopyLoopsTootyFroots · 19/08/2011 22:40

Prepare to vomit...

Baby Dancing
and
Shagging With Intent

Call for vomiting emoticon please MNHQ?

OP posts:
LoopyLoopsTootyFroots · 19/08/2011 22:41

And yes, I am ignoring you Queen Agent.

OP posts:
DilysPrice · 19/08/2011 22:42

That's very exciting rowena - you are Mumsnet's very own Buffy The Vampire Slayer (she died twice). Don't do it again.

BD is baby dancing
SWI is Shagging With Intent

Both mean fucking with the intent to procreate

MmeLindor. · 19/08/2011 22:44

Rowena
Oh, scary. What happened? glad the paramedics were on the ball

I wouldn't mind being called MN royalty, but no one has ever done so, or moaned that I have been treated differently from newby posters.
