Right, I spend too much time on here and it's always the same old stuff, so this is my definitive list. If you'll all just agree to agree with me, then we can just shut down AIBU.

BF/FF BF is a little better for your kid, but some can't manage it. Do what you like. And I won't judge you for it.
Parking Disabled more important than Parent and Toddler. It won't kill you to walk the length of the car park if you are able-bodied
Greggs/Fruitshoots/McDonalds Won't kill your kid if in moderation.
4 wheel drives Whatever
Children at weddings Close family and breast feeding babies should be there. Others should be according to B&G wishes.

Bridezillas Yes to all of them.

Christmas family arrangements Just alternate between different family members one year and the next.

The Mardy one has spoken. I can go and do some work now.
Gavel.

Put the heating on when your cold, off when not. It truly isn't rocket science.

Children's parties If over 50% of the class invite the lot.

BLW?

Mardymwahhaha · 14/10/2011 12:38

Jenai I don't even understand BLW. Do what you like. I'm old enough to have weaned from 4 months when it was recommended. Kids seem Ok to me.

My DH/DP/DF does no housework / has all the lie ins / doesn't help with the kids / plays on / goes out drinking til all hours.

Answer: YANBU, leave the bastard.

gobbolinothewitchscatinboots · 14/10/2011 12:42

What about benefits?

Mardymwahhaha · 14/10/2011 12:42

caramel nobody has disagreed with me yet. I think even if I can't shut it down, we could reduce traffic by approximately 82.3%. There will always be the rogue thread that can' be easily categorised.

Likewise, Mards Grin

Girls dressed like (apologies in advance) "mini-hookers"?

What's with all the wedding AIBUs at the mo btw - I keep wanting to post on each and every one telling them to fuck off to You and Your Wedding.

coraltoes · 14/10/2011 12:43

Any male related AIBU: kick him in the nads, YANBU

Mardymwahhaha · 14/10/2011 12:45

Benefits to be paid to the deserving
No to mini-hookers

Anything else? I really do need to get some work done.

Oh oh oh I have a seasonal one:

Hallloween (American import etc etc)

[hgrin]

Mardymwahhaha · 14/10/2011 12:46

"Likewise, Mards"

Mards! I've never been called Mards before. Quite like it.

coraltoes · 14/10/2011 12:46

For the remaining threads that slip through your net...

Any use of "no is a full sentence" and "what the actual fuck" results in a cliche card being shown. 2 and you are on the bench.

Or am i getting carried away

Mardymwahhaha · 14/10/2011 12:46

Hallowe'en That's easy. If the house has a pumpkin outside then it's OK to trick or treat.

Mardymwahhaha · 14/10/2011 12:48

Nice thinking coraltoes

Where do we stand on benefit fraud though?

Report or not report?

Mardymwahhaha · 14/10/2011 12:49

BTW Christmas dinner Aunt Bessie's are not acceptable. Make a bit of an effort for once. But OK to buy a Christmas pudding.

OP posts:
bluegnueboo · 14/10/2011 12:49

[hsmile] Not at all Mardy.

Mardymwahhaha · 14/10/2011 12:50

Right, that's all sorted. See you later.

OP posts:
bluegnueboo · 14/10/2011 12:50

Benefit fraud. If you have proof report, if not mind your own business.

caramelwaffle · 14/10/2011 12:53

No. No. No.

I like "No is a complete sentence".

only disagrees with coraltoes, therefore Mardy's 100% agreement record stands
