to feel let down by mumsnet

[cantbedoingwithit]

A friend has been raving about mumsnet and said that i should join as it is "like talking to friends who are supportive, friendly and who give sound advice." I have been lurking on mn and have been reading lots of threads and have been put off from starting a thread myself because i found some of the replies really quite un friendly (to say the least) and some sound quite rude. I realize that mn prides its self on being a 'no nonsense' type of forum and life isnt all flowers and fluffy clouds, and that sometimes the truth isnt always 'nice' but i was quite shocked at some of the 'un sisterly' comments.

If she had any of those problems, Yap, she would have got support.

And anyone saying she wouldn't ,doesn't know MN.

ABF, my Zebra Snail was called Hagrid.

We LOST our Pleko. Actually lost it. It is quite high on my list of shit that has disturbed the fuck out of me.

that jardin is a real cow. Just sayin'. I hate being on threads with her. she is not funny. oh no. never. ever. ever.

ever. ahem.

DS1 had a plecostomus called Lord Zed and a red tailed shark called Billy.

HoneyDragon,have you looked down the back of the tank?
DP found two fish that had disappeared when he couldn't understand where they'd gone.
They must have jumped ship!

YANBU, Feegle!

So are all of you on this thread talking about fish then? Maybe that's why I don't understand it.

MNHQ seem to have given up on this thread.

so, is OP a PBP with a grudge?

Oh thank you so much Sanity

I did tell him he was a self-serving bastard but he denied it! Pfffft

I've told him he can see to the Boss' nighttime awakenings (of which there are many) and we've agreed I'll leave the depravity until next time...

How do you know that Sinister

love this thread. and Sinister how DO you know that? I don't understand vests...why don't people wear lovely big jumpers in the winter? Or are these people wearing them in the summer too? (I'm way too interested in this, aren't I...)

Yes, aren't their arms cold? Or their torso too hot?

Hello! how do you know? I'm nosey

ToysRLuv maybe they wear long sleeved vests? And long johns underneath their trousers?

Umm.. yes, that's a good point.

You wear layers to keep you warm,not just big jumpers,vests are very sexy warming under a tee shirt and a big fluffy jumper.

Okay the second thing is meant to be a fluffy cloud how does talc do her pics

Carp is bony btw

oinkment when you were in Asda did you notice any T-rexing?

Sorry to leave you all hanging on the Asda fig roll issue.

Asda did get back to me - they said if I don't like their fig rolls I should probably just not bother buying or eating them , and then rather snippily (I thought) suggested maybe I'd be better off with a much gentler M&S fig roll if I couldn't cope with the figginess of Asda's own. And then they went on about their wide range of fresh and frozen fish. It was a bit weird to be honest.

(I don't know what T-rexing is and I have a strict policy of never googling Mumsnet things I don't know about so sadly I may never find out)

oink Google it.

it is possibly the funniest thread
