Is DP UR to have just called all MNers...

[dozyrosie]

... a bunch of mean misery mum bitches. I did immediately jump to your defence, calling him a boring twat for spending every possible fee minute doing some fantasy football carp and may actually lose his beer belly if he played real football. This debate was definitely not started because I have spent most of the evening in MN.

[Joolyjoolyjoo]

My DH makes occasional asides about "Millie Tants" But I notice that if we are discussing something (which car/ holiday/ who is right) he often nonchalantly suggests I post it here. Which surely means that he realises collectively we are the fount of all knowledge

[Trills]

DP says "I thought it was nest of vipers".

Using the correct insult terminology is a sure sign of a secret MN lurker.

[Trills]

It is unreasonable to call all MNers anything at all.

Unless the description is internet-forum-users.

No such thing as a description that fits all of us.

He's probably just :( that you are spending more time talking to us than to him because we're more fun

[Matronalia]

DH is on here somewhere as a lurker mainly but he posts sometimes.

(waves)

He finds the site very useful/entertaining/interesting

Thats jsut reason 976 why he is still my DH

[scottishmummy]

He's a bit fick if that's best profanity he can muster
Dull.lame and big bit bawbag

[crazynannawitchbitch]

I don't have a DH/DP or even a DK...but I sure am one biiiig beatch

[PureBloodMuggle]

imy problem would be that itls just not very clever, least bumsnet, is a little better

but mean misery mum bitches doesn't in anyway connect

even mardy numpties would be better

i would have had to tut loudly an tell him to try harder, however my dh hasnlt a clue bout here

[QuietNinjaZombie]

Jeez why dont blokes like mumsnet? My dh is the same. We've just had a calm and reasonable row discussion that started with me asking a question and him saying have you been on mumsnet? It is resolved now and I won
Honestly you'd think that they'd prefer us educated and opioniated and full of mumsnet wisdom.

[dozyrosie]

More fool the man that takes on a 5 foot woman, weather it's beakinthebeeswax or me :o.
ripstheirthroatoutliveupstairs; twunt is a marvellous insult, I may even use it in my next "debate" with DP.

[beakinthebeeswax]

I will kick his head in!



My DP calls it Bumsnet too. He would like it if he tried it.

@ Peter

for giyadas

My DH asked me what i do on MN told him he wouldn't understand its for
intelligent conversation and insight. (obviously he has no idea about naice ham,jazz hands et al).

[PeterSpanswick]

Well that's exactly what I thought when I first met you all..

You had me at hello..

[AmazingBouncingFerret]

DH doesnt really say anything about mumsnet. He'll notice me reach for the laptop and will do a big sigh, roll his eyes and then say "I guess I can watch what I want on TV then?"

[bintofbohemia]

I wore my dressing gown the whole day yesterday. It was brilliant.

[DreamsOfScream]

I'm starting to suspect my DH is sabotaging the phone cable to stop me getting on here. I think he is a bit intimidated by MN

Well maybe not. But it has been broken 2 days in a row. We shall see if it is busted again tommorow morning! All that has happened is that it drove me to DIY to work out how to fix it when I got the hyperventalating under control so if it was him he is making himself obsolete.

[giyadas]

hey jazz hands! how the solo career [winks]
yep I did the pigeon question. He fell for it at first but he has a tendency to overthink things and just wouldn't let it drop. Very funny for a while but in the end I was sorry I asked tbh.

[ripstheirthroatoutliveupstairs]

My DH has no idea that I spend virtually all day here.
He is coming back from forrin parts on Friday for a whole week.
I will not be appearing as frequently.
OP, your DP is a twunt.

[ThePathanKhansWoman]

Waves to giyadas (we were in a band together y.know)

You didn't do the Pigeon question on dh, did you? ha mad.

[NunTheWiser]

Hello, my name is NunTheWiser and I'm a Mean Misery Mum Bitch.

[giyadas]

DP wouldn't dare diss MN, he has the Fear, and will be on his best behaviour if he thinks I might dob him in.
Also any questions he perceives as odd will get a then a quick glance at the laptop then a very considered reply. (ever since I told him that pigeons get cold this time of year )

[ScarahStratton]

I have trained my family. DDs always say 'ask on Mumsnet please' if they need to know something.

Which reminds me, has anyone used Soap & Glory's new cosmetics range? I'll go and do a thread, S&B scares me. :(

[ThePathanKhansWoman]

Gosh, he's met me hasn't he? .

[YouWithTheFace]

I converted my grumpy Tory father from believing this was some kind of lefty crazy PND-ridden hangout to, um, voluntarily wandering around the site looking, I believe, for biscuits, and inventing stories based on the baby name generator.

My DH reckons viperwolefs are not to be messed with, and his first line of research on the baby is always, "What do they say on Mumsnet?"

[Flisspaps]

DH announced to me the other day that we're you're all basically on a witch-hunt and have double standards.

[dozyrosie]

Well at least his fantasy football obsession limits the trail of fucking carnage he leaves behind him to the desk, and not the rest of the house. Still I think I might just buy a bigger shed, put his PC in there and keep him out there until the odd occasion I actually need him. At least then I'll be able to go on MN in relative peace, quiet and tidiness.
