Ha, that got you in,didn't it.

AIBU to start a thread to ask everyone who has ever been accused of being Mumsnet Royalty or one of the elite, or one of the populars, or insultingly been accused of being cliquey, quichey, prolific or all the many other insults, to sign in here.

I just want a list to refer to. Cos I reckon there are about a zillion of us, so I just want to prove that it isn't just a few of us who are up their own arses and think the site revolves around them

Whadayathink?

Fanjo, the exact words were "think mumsnet is all about them" here

I just figured that was half of mumsnet Grin

Now see Maryzzzzz I do feel I need to be closer to the top of that list. It is my righful place.

FanjoForTheMammasaurus · 23/05/2012 17:29

mary- yes but I think it was also said that some of us "think we own MN" a while ago Grin

ScrambledSmegs · 23/05/2012 17:29

I'm on the rat-smacking, brookers thread. We've been accused of being a quiche Shock

Why anyone would want to be in a quiche where the primary topics of discussion are cervical mucus and baking (not together) I'll never know Hmm

OhNoMyFanjo · 23/05/2012 17:30

Royalty means you wouldn't fart in presence of, well I'd fart in front of all of you.

TitsalinaBumSquash · 23/05/2012 17:30

Ohh talking of the Wolefs (where do they hang out these days?)

I got sent <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=cat+tshirt+meme&start=106&hl=en&biw=1680&bih=925&tbm=isch&tbnid=uWbhl2l_vbGNPM:&imgrefurl=www.ghettoredhot.com/&docid=xMzwE2X3goTSrM&imgurl=cdn.ghettoredhot.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/funny-cat-tshirts.jpg&w=500&h=465&ei=YxC9T66WNcmh8QOnmIw3&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=332&sig=104038542655636331678&page=3&tbnh=144&tbnw=164&ndsp=54&ved=1t:429,r:16,s:106,i:96&tx=127&ty=54" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this and thought of the original wolef thread.

MaryZapalasaurus · 23/05/2012 17:30

Yeah, but I can't find the exact reference, so might be accused of trolling, Fanjo.

I have to make dinner.

I fear you will let the list go Sad

I might make my own.

Although it too 4 months and countless 'whatever happened to.........' threads before anyone noticed my previous me was missing.

MaryZapalasaurus · 23/05/2012 17:31

They are in OffTheBeatenTrack, Titsalina. You should head over and have a gander.

Pinot is still pissing in the corners.

catgirl1976 · 23/05/2012 17:32

Never Royalty but I have been accussed of being cliquey and a thread hi-jacker

FanjoForTheMammasaurus · 23/05/2012 17:32

They mean it in a nice way when they say it about you and Pagwatch though Hecate

MaryZapalasaurus · 23/05/2012 17:32

I know Hecate.

That's why I started this. I reckon hundreds of us have been accused over the years - we can't all be absolute self-important bitches all the time. Surely by the law of averages some people who are "popular" must be nice [baffled]

One of my colleagues has a wolef fleece. I can barely subdue my mirth when i see it.

TitsalinaBumSquash · 23/05/2012 17:35

My ex MIL requested one for Christmas one year, oh did I larf.

Anyway, so now I has a sceptre and all that jazz, where do I collect my corgi?

Magneto · 23/05/2012 17:35

I have to go and throw my weight around on the internet for a bit now.

DameHermioneRex · 23/05/2012 17:39

It is all about me.

KeithLemonsBangTidyGirlfriend · 23/05/2012 17:41

Fucking hell, some people will do anything ti get noticed!

hurricanewyn · 23/05/2012 17:42

I've never, ever been called royalty or quichy or anything, but I'm a mahoosive bitch in real life if that counts?

FanjoForTheMammasaurus · 23/05/2012 17:42

wow, we made 70 posts before someone came on being snipey!

KatieScarlett2833 · 23/05/2012 17:43

I consider it my civic duty to piss off the proles DameH

One ought to do ones bit, noblesse oblige and all that.... Wink

gomowthelawn · 23/05/2012 17:44

The definition of royalty is: not me. I am of zero importance, to anyone, except perhaps myself. To myself I am hugely important. Without me I'd be dead.

HTH

usualsuspect · 23/05/2012 17:45

I was waiting for the snippy posts

But tbh its usually me being snippy Grin
