Having just read through another parent and child parking space thread I thought it would save much time if we just had a list the same way we do with the topics or acronyms

Parking in the wrong parking space make you a bad person
Going out to work makes you a bad person
Staying home makes you a bad person
Giving your child fruit shoot, McDonalds, Greggs makes you a bad person
Getting your child's ear pierced makes you a bad person
Breast feeding makes you preachy and smug a bad person
Bottle feeding makes you a bad person
Sending your child to a state/private school makes you a bad person
Home schooling your child makes you a bad person
Claiming benefits makes you a bad person

I am sure I have missed loads but at least that's a start.

If you involve yourself with the school / PTA / PC you're a PITA.
If you're not involved, you don't care about children and you're a bad parent.

If you stand at the school gates and have the nerve to talk to other parents, you are DOING THE WORK OF SATAN and should be shunned. (And you're a bad person too, obv).

It's official I'm a messy cow after spraying pepsi everywhere at the pombears comment above. Grin

Ooooh, this is great. I am bad in so many ways.

Going to parents evening makes you a bad (pushy) person
Not going to parents evening makes you a bad (neglectful) person
Reading the Daily Fail makes you a bad person.
Not being up to speed on what the Daily Fail is up to so that you need to check lnks when people post them on MN makes you a bad person.
Preferring dark chocolate makes you a snob
Preferring Dairy Milk makes you a chav

Oh, and using the Thanks emoticon means you have gone over to the Dark Side and there is no hope for you.

pointythings · 28/09/2011 22:17

Ooops.

Thumbwitch · 29/09/2011 12:09

love this!

Ummmm

spending too much time on MN makes you a bad person
not replying to everyone who answers your OP makes you a bad person
not thanking everyone who takes time to offer you their fabulous advice makes you a bad person
Asking AIBU and then flouncing/stropping when everyone says "YABU" makes you a bad person
Not reading the whole bloody thread, especially when it's less than 50 posts, makes you a bad person
Using creepy wee brackets makes you a bad person

Thumbwitch you're getting it wrong re the creepy wee brackets - they are wannabe HTML tags. If we put them in [these kinds of brackets] they would be the emoticons we would really love to have. All 10 million of them.

Spelling out 'BUMSEX' in MN emoticons makes you a bad person
Spelling out 'BUMSEX' in MN emoticons means you are incredibly creative and therefore a good person.

Admitting you are on MN means you are brave and a good person
Admitting you are on MN means you are betraying the sisterhood and so are a bad person.

poipntythings - no no no - the [ ] are for emoticons-we-wish-we-had-but-Tech-won't-do-for-us [sulk] - the creepy wee brackets are for asides and actions-not-speech type things such as

Very definite difference in usage there.
