To hate the cliquey vomit-inducing threads on MN?

Because they put me right off the whole of MN Sad.

Maybe it's because I don't generally use MN for 'chatting'; more for getting advice and opinions on parenting issues, health issues, etc (have namechanged btw as am a longstanding and cowardly MNer). But I do click on 'most active' when I come on here to see what's going on, and the clique arse-kissing and 'in' jokes between some MNers make me cringe and really put me off the site. It's like the school playground mum cliques but worse - because at least there the people really do know each other.

And yes I know threads about a thread are against MN rules blah blah but I wanted to moan about and am happy to be slated for doing so - so there Grin

I just think some MNers should get over themselves and go off and start a new 'love-in' site somewhere else. The End.

I am disappointed we haven't figured out who's been bullied. Was it you, Cheaptrick?

Driftwood999 · 08/09/2011 21:25

So, so picked on.... I rest my case.

The shop by me sells hairless rats. I hate them but i just couldn't stop watching them - the same way you watch a car crash you just have too!

sjuperwolef · 08/09/2011 21:27

Well, it didn't predict the Battle Of Big Hole at Big Hole River near Montana on August 9th the following year, did it Hully?

Hullygully · 08/09/2011 21:28

That's because the name was just too rude to repeat at the time

Empjusa · 08/09/2011 21:28

Cheaptrick · 08/09/2011 21:29

I was not bullied by you nice people but that evil Sarahstratton turned me into a zombie and came after me with her looting stick.

She is fucking scary and Babycham42

SuePurblybilt · 08/09/2011 21:29

Driftwood, I genuinely don't understand what you post. You case was that people on this thread had been bullied? But didn't/couldn't give examples so now you think you've been picked on? Which is proving your point how?

That's like saying Asda have sold me a stale loaf of bread, and to prove my point, I'll just nip in and buy it.

Or are you tongue in cheek and I am missing the joke? It does happen all the time

It's their tails that stop me

But I am sorry for your pain

Empjusa · 08/09/2011 21:30

They have lovely soft tails, with lovely delicate fur on them. Grin

Eeek! To be fair our boys would do that given half a chance, which is why they aren't allowed anywhere near each other.

Hullygully · 08/09/2011 21:32

SLIT ITS OWN THROAT?

Are you sure it wasn't a narsty film you saw?

Cheaptrick · 08/09/2011 21:33

But can you image the hairless rats - they are big and pink and hairless you can see their skin move Shock

Empjusa · 08/09/2011 21:34

"But can you image the hairless rats - they are big and pink and hairless you can see their skin move"

They are kind of cute in a strange way. I prefer hairy rats, much more cuddly! Though baby rats are hairless, and gorgeous!

SuePurblybilt · 08/09/2011 21:34

I'll bully you. In fact I will upset you.

I saw Farrow and Ball tins HALF PRICE today and didn't buy them. I bought Homebase's own.

Mwahhahaaaaaa

sjuperwolef · 08/09/2011 21:34
