to be slightly addicted to AIBU?

[bookforgoddaughter]

I am a (happily) childless (gay) man.

I left a message on Mumsnet because I wanted some advice on books for my god daughter. While on, I had a quick peek at AIBU and have been addicted ever since. I always have a 20 minute browse before going to sleep.

My DCP (darling civil partner -I'm trying to start a new term) thinks that:

a. It is weird that I find it so interesting.
b. I am not welcome as I am not a mum nor female

It came to a head last night when I was crying with laughter in bed over the hamwidge thread. It was impossible to explain.

AIBU and, indeed, am I welcome?

Welcome, you will laugh, cry and get the most amazing advice. Also be shot down in flames sometimes all in one thread.

Do pop into the Drunk Thread on a Friday, we have and go on all sorts of virtual pub crawls.

Do not google anything, that you are advised to

"Do not google anything, that you are advised to"

Apart from dragon butter or munting.

Welcome btw.

The "active" button up there is useful for keeping up with whatever's current. There's an interesting^ thread in Relationships at the moment about a one night stand.

Muahaha welcome, you will never leave

and never click on unspecified links

Of course you welcome!

If you want to get dcp hooked show him the duck thread in classics, or the one about the kid living in the car

I wish I had found mn before actually having dd sprogs take up so much mn time I would have been much better prepared for the never ending newborn stage that's gone in a flash, I would have found breastfeeding a lot easier and I would have LTB a lot sooner!

Oh dear...I'm a bit addicted to AIBU and hadn't heard of the Drunk thread before...I'm afraid that will be even more time looking at this website. DH said it´s a load of shit, then I caught him reading some AIBU (though not as avidly as me).
You are a bit unreasonable to want to start ûsing DCP but only because I think you should be able to have a DH.

I'm pretty new to mums net (Ido have a child) now curious though,where do I find "classics"??

"Do not google anything, that you are advised to" - includes Blue Waffle. Learned this the hard way

Well, as relative newbie myself YANBU. I always click on the "active" link and it almost always draws me to "Chat" or "AIBU". I do have occasional short breaks in the outer flung areas of MN. I'm also male and I have been unashamedly extolling MN's virtues to select associates. I am male and I am proud.

YANBU

YY, YANBU!

YY, go take a look in Classics.

YY, pop in to the Drunk Thread on a Friday night...

As another poster said YABU for being only "slightly" addicted. Other than that - welcome to Hotel California.

MummyB - Classics link here if you want it.
