to be hunting for that mythical MN beast...

[Thurlow]

the poster who has never discovered something seemingly random that they do which is considered judge-worthy or terrible by another poster?

Leaving aside the traditional topics for conflict - breastfeeding not enough/too long, co-sleeping/controlled crying, formula - which people have very strong opinions about, the amount of stuff I've stumbled across where someone (or more enlighteningly, lots of posters) which is considered weird or just plain wrong by other posters is amazing.

Clothes (not babygrows) on babies. Not washing you towels regularly enough or washing them too often. Bottles for babies over 1. Not washing your baby's clothes before they wear them (that was a spectacular bunfight!). Forward-facing pushchairs. Playpens. Pureed weaning. Wearing shoes in someone's house. Owning a toilet brush.

Is there anyone out there who has yet to come across an odd thread that hugely judges something they do?

I may have had a tiny orgasm over the thought of the towels of Bathsheba

I was convinced earlier we were gearing up for a super Easter bunfight this evening, everyone seemed ready.

I could maybe start an aibu about lateness, that seems to get everyone going.
Aibu that me and my 5 toddlers have to climb a mountain and forge a river every morning and arrive at school 3 minutes after the bell?

Asda is for chavs [bushock]

I shop there as it's the closest supermarket, and its frequented by footballers and such that live in houses worth millions.

Some of the judging drives me insane especially if you spoil your child your making up for a broken home and don't bring them up in a stable loving home [buconfused]
Or everything you buy is tat regardless of price [buconfused]

[Salmotrutta]

You could start it littlemissbunny.

I dare you.

[MooMooSkit]

I never ever knew I was being rude if I wanted a starter and no one else did, thanks to mumsnet, I now know I am a rude selfish piggy twat.

[KatieScarlett2833]

Mermaid, your typos are ace

[catgirl1976]

I always check if other people are having a starter

You get a general consensus don't you? "Are we doing starters or just going straight for mains?". Then, if it's just you wanting a started you don't (whilst hating everyone secretly) and if everyone else does you can go ahead.

That's ok isn't it?

Don't take away my starters.

Note, I care far more about this issue than if people think I am a neglectful mother because DS wears clothers straight off the hanger

[Iteotwawki]

You're meant to wash towels?

Since when? I'm clean when I use them, they dry out draped over a door ready for subsequent use.

[Salmotrutta]

Breast with Soup?

Hahahahaha.

You is funny Mermaid

[littlemissbunny]

Salmotrutta I double dare you [bugrin]

[Salmotrutta]

psst - BEIGE!!!

[Thurlow]

I don't think I have ever cleaned my toddler's toys unless there was crusty food on it. Oh dear.

I got a slating the other day for admitting I wore headphones when pushing my front-facing, non-speaking yet, world-watching DD to the shop. That was a bit of an eye opener.

I do wish someone would start a real bunfight tonight though. I'm bored and everyone is in bed.

[NaturalBaby]

Using the dishwashing sponge/cloth to wipe kitchen surfaces is a crime apparently. I wipe my dc's face with it but haven't dared admit it on one of those threads.

[ThreeBeeOneGee]

It's me!!! I'm the goadiest goadmeister on MN. Just look at my past posts if you don't believe me (well, those few that haven't been deleted).

[whosiwhatsit]

If we are now supposed to dunk our breasts in the soup in restaurants can it at least be one of those cold soups, please, lake gazpacho?

[Salmotrutta]

OK..

PANTS thread started.

I wish I hadn't.

I bet it gets flamed.



Why did you make me littlemiss?? Why?

[KatieScarlett2833]

Lte, I have just been a teeny bit sick over your towel drying system

[Thurlow]

[catgirl1976]

I use those Flash wipes.

They have changed my life but I never dare admit it on here as I assumed they would be Bad For The Environment and I was meant to scrub my worktops with hand-crushed, organic mung beans in an emulsion of sicilian lemon oil and then use the leftovers of that to make 19 meals (in my slow cooker), 9 of which I give to a foodbank or something.
