To want to rebel against strong opinions on Munsnet?

[Doogle2]

I know it's my own fault for being on here too much but I am really amazed by some of the things mumsnetters get worked up about. This week alone I've wanted to;

1. buy another toilet brush so I have 2 in the house.
2. give my son a biscuit at 9:59am which, as you are aware, is BEFORE 10am.
3. Have a glass of wine at 4pm instead of 6pm! So am I unreasonable to do all three in one day just to amuse myself and imagine the pearl clutching that would be going on here?

Yanbu. You and me both.

YABU at all!

I'm with you all the way, Doogle2.

Some people just choose to have very strong rules about certain issues (what dc's are fed or housekeeping drudgery) to make them feel like they are top of the class. It's like the ten commandments, as long as I don't give dc a biscuit before 10am I am a good parent. And anyone who does, isn't.

Combined with the inability to see that everyone is not you, nor would they want to be.

Going along with this theme, I also used to regularly feed my son horse burgers from Tesco when I was really skint! Social services should be callled!

YANBU at all, I'm well aware that a couple of things I've done with the DC's this weekend would get me my arse handed to me on a plate on here...

Hope you put "munsnet" on purpose

Whoops - I see autocorrect has got me again. I am sure that will also set the cat among the pigeons!

I was already guilty of thoses offences before I started on here . I am clearly a wrongun!

YANBU, was brought up in a throughly working class household, some of these ideas are foreign to me

I get a perverse pleasure out of Doing Things of Which Mumsnet Disapproves.

yanbu. Is it too early for ?

I don't care what you all do. doesn't bother me one bit. Other people's choices are for other people to worry about. I just carry on doing what I want to do.

Try it.

Tis very liberating

There do seem to be a lot of people on here who are very easily shocked, horrified even at the most banal things. Makes me laugh though. No doubt there are some who would be horrified that ds and I are still in our pj's at 1.30pm and have no intention of getting dressed at all until bath time when we'll put on clean pj's

I think folk take so many things too deeply. Sometimes I would be & or about something too, but only for 5-10 seconds. Real feelings but not entertained long enough to come share on MN or want to talk at length about it.

Acceptable - your Sunday sounds fab!

Yabu to give a fuck-a-roo. :)

YABU if you think that everyone on MN has the same rules or expects others to follow their personal rules.

YABU on No. 1

I don't care either way on No. 2

YANBU on No. 3 - in fact let's have a glass now

I used to hand wringe about all sorts because of MN, then I had an epiphany and realised that MN is very different to the real world, and most people just muddle along, doing the best they can.

In RL, if I gave DS2 a bit I cake when he was 9mo, no one would bat an eyelid. Here, it's tantamount to child abuse to some people.

Acceptable I can go one better. We are also in PJ's. All day. I doubt there will be a bath. Or clean PJ's. That will be tomorrow morning.

Slattern.

I love PJ's. I do not get dressed unless we are leaving the house. And even then if its just the school run, that gets done in my PJ's... as I don't get out the car!

What Mmsnet are you on? All the Mnetters I do wholeheartedly embrace and do everything you say you want to do in your op?

You have clearly fallen in with the wrong crowd
