First post:-)
Just found out my DSis is a MN regular,AIBU to feel annoyed that she didn't tell me since I was the one to introduce her to MN in the first place! Feel peed off, she isn't even a mum yet and I am!! I know it's a public forum but still!

You're acting like a twelve year old.

Grow up.

If your DSis being on MN annoys you, step away from MN, leave her to it (since you don't post).

Again, whinging about her posting here/skinny jeans/hair dye is utterly pathetic. She hasn't done anything wrong.

I have 4 sister and only my 15 year old sister dont have kids.

We are not bitchy to each other we have different styles and different parenting but we support one and other

SlinkingOutsideInFrocks · 23/01/2012 04:32

You're not the only person to feel like this, but most people get over this sort of stuff - same hair colour, same jeans, etc - in early teenage-hood.

I actually thought this was going to be the sort of thread where the OP totally knows she's being U, and is really taking the mick out of herself for the way she feels and then everyone comes on for a few light-hearted japes and all is well with the world. So to read that you were 100% in earnest was amusing, to say the least.

This stuff Does Not Matter. Why don't the two of you just try being friends? Works well for many, many, many, many siblings. And is a hell of a lot less effort.

If this is for real you need to grow the fuck up.
Someone is on a wind up here Hmm

CuntWorm · 23/01/2012 06:20

I wish my sister was on here. She is onfucking netmums and quotes the site like a bible

catinboots · 23/01/2012 08:13

Eh? You what?

Honeydragon · 23/01/2012 09:14

Oh Cuntworm, I'm so so sorry Sad

Would you like us to send in a Mnet crack team and do an extraction?

SparkyTGD · 23/01/2012 11:48

This thread is hilarious, am crying with laughter at your link Honeydragon and post by ValorMorghulus

"aren't that many non mothers with demented bitches for sisters" Grin

OP, if you don't even usually post then how is it a problem Confused

There's enough room for everyone, even people with multiple identities, trolls, sockpuppets...surely enough room for you & your sis Grin

BackToBligg · 23/01/2012 12:54

My sister is on this thread and she. didn't. even. tell. me.

AgnesBligg · 23/01/2012 16:24
Wink
ImperialBlether · 23/01/2012 16:44

I don't get this. The OP introduced her sister to MN and is flabbergasted and insulted that she is on here?

M0naLisa · 23/01/2012 16:53

Maybe she didnt get married 6 weeks after you to spite you, maybe YOU got married first so that YOU wasnt left on the shelf after your sister got married.

S'true my cousins have done this. Younger one getting married in april, older one got engaged AFTER younger one and MARRIED before as she didnt want to get married after younger sister.

Sooooo sad!!!

Fems96 · 23/01/2012 16:57

Well I am the younger sister and only 25 when I got married so hardly worried about being left on the shelf! I just can't believe how noone can see how utterly unreasonable she is to have done this,like would she ever like to get something of her own,just once!

ImperialBlether · 23/01/2012 17:00

Is the font on here bold or is it me?

GinSlinger · 23/01/2012 17:09

it's the sister wot done it, Imperial. She had the temerity to post on an internet forum and the font went bold in disbelief

2rebecca · 23/01/2012 17:10

It was bold, I got confused by that. You seem confused as to what you want. On the want hand you don't want her copying you, on the other this post is about you feeling aggrieved that she doesn't tell you everything she posts. It sounds as though you both need to grow up a bit and put a bit of distance between you.
I've no idea if my sister posts on here, I doubt it as she has no kids and more social life than me, but if she did I wouldn't expect her to tell me about it. If she wants to tell me stuff she phones, emails or texts me.

fruitshootsandheavesupafurball · 23/01/2012 17:12

copying is a sign of flattery, or flatulence depending on your auto correct options

2rebecca · 23/01/2012 17:17

I disliked my younger sister copying me, but dealt with that by just not telling her what I was up to. That meant that she developed her own tastes from about 18 when i left home. If you didn't want her going on mumsnet and know that she always copies you then why didn't you just keep quiet about it?
I think sometimes you have to choose between a sharing everything type of relationship and keeping a bit of privacy. You can't have both.

Rindercella · 23/01/2012 17:25

"She had the temerity to post on an internet forum and the font went bold in disbelief" Grin Just too funny for words

CuntWorm · 23/01/2012 17:27

Honeydragon Not sure if she would so well here, I mentioned you can swear here and her exact words were

' A site for mothers shouldn't have swearing! What if the kids read the dirty words!'
I didn't mention the bumsex she might of fainted

She wouldn't cope, bless her

KurriKurri · 23/01/2012 17:31

If you extend the logic of her needing 'get something of her own' you wouldn't allow anyone else on MN, and you'd be on here all on your own, talking to yourself.
And then lurking and wondering whether to be daring and answer your own posts.

That's quite surreal actual

Where shall all the rest of us (who aren't you, but have illegally wandered onto your forum) go?

NoOnesGoingToEatYourEyes · 23/01/2012 17:36

OP why did you introduce her to MN if you didn't want her to then go on and use it?

mrsjay · 23/01/2012 17:38

maybe shes bitching about her sister who has thrown a wobbler cos she wont play nice Grin she doesnt have to tell you anything she is a grown up isnt she ? she can post whatever and wherever she likes anon and in private

BoneyBackJefferson · 23/01/2012 18:27

Fems96

"In fairness to me I would have been posting but I have been busy actually being a mum to a new baby,unlike her!and before u ask yes I'm still busy with my baby but she has riled me into posting!"

I would say that you are to much of a martyr to post much.

mrspepperpotty · 23/01/2012 18:43

This thread is hilarious
