Ive changed my name as im peeved off. I asked for a genuine bit of advice about dd2 school, and i got abuse. Everyone is so unfriendly and jump down ur throat. Its very clicky in here and they all stick togethet. At least on netmums u get a fair hearing and gd advice, its crap here.

People come on here for an ego trip and im sick of it. Have a bit if respect and decency for peoples feelings!!! Grrrrr wish it was properly monitored

Hello! Have I stumbled onto the Drunk Thread?

TheInquisitor · 12/10/2013 00:15

talk about spelling and text speak,

Now this I actually love about Mumsnet. I tend to spend more time over here nowadays and whenever I venture back over to Netmums, I find the appalling lack of spelling and grammar completely off putting. It's all full of text speak! Drives me mad.
At least over here I'm around like minded spelling and grammar Police. Grin

HereComesHoneyBooBooDragon · 12/10/2013 00:16

I'm sober, if that helps?

Tiredmumno1 · 12/10/2013 00:16

Olivia you haven't gotta worry about me as I am orf to bed, can you all hold off on the cheering until I am actually out the door. Thank you Grin

Goodnight all Smile

As am I. Sadly.

PrincessFlirtyPants · 12/10/2013 00:17

I was annoyed I missed the last one, I read the whole thing when it had reached 1008 posts and then couldn't post to clear up an accusation that I knew was untrue! Grr!!

No one has a clue about my name or this thread?

PrincessFlirtyPants · 12/10/2013 00:18

Oops, sorry that was to HoneyBooBoo

YouTheCat · 12/10/2013 00:18

WARNING - THIS IS LONG AND HAS BIG WORDS IN IT.

Hellogals or OP or whatever it is you are now on here as...

READ UP, AND READ UP GOOD...

I am, quite genuinely, trying to help you here OP - that is what will now be called 'PLAN A' and will come first and it does pre-suppose you are actually genuine (which I am, as that is my nature, assuming you actually ARE & until proven otherwise - OLIVIA, PREGGERS OR OTHERWISE, CAN YOU AT LEAST ENLIGHTEN US IF OP IS GENUINE IN REFERRING TO A THREAD OF HERS VIS HER DD BEING BULLIED??? ) - and if I am wrong, then please avoid 'go' and go directly to jail 'PLAN B' further below.

So here is PLAN A in all it's MN glory for you - If you genuinely felt you were abused on here vis a subject as important/delicate as your DD being bullied, then I can only apologise for that (on account of being one of the 2-3million users here and, de facto, ALSO one of the ones you have slated collectively - albeit WHOLLY mistakenly since clearly it was NOT all of us... not least as we still don't know what thread you're referring to?).

STDG has it right, and I have both the battle scars of being dumb enough to post on AIBU to prove it; but also the TOTAL privilege of having been able to help a few people I could see were in genuine need - and then the even BIGGER 'gift' that some of the 'collective' (I.E. some of the group that is 'ALL' MN'ers) of the folks have given me. THAT help being AFTER I may have helped others, and also - very literally - being life-saving.

So, if you've had a rough ride; I'm sorry and would genuinely urge you to post again so that we - WE - CAN help.

NB: PLEASE IGNORE THE BELOW IF 'PLAN A' APPLIES/IS ACCURATE.

*AND....here is PLAN B for IF the above does NOT apply.

If you are on a piss take, then please take the bus with destination 'Fck You' on the front of it RIGHT back to any other site you wish to visit. Ditto, do NOT have the audacity to clump us all together (we are nearly 3 million people FFS???) in the way your OP* did.

Please KNOW - to your very core - that I may well be dead right now and my DC without a Mother were it NOT for the precious people here who came to my aid and just as I did in turn prior to that with other people in need (although I DON'T think I saved anyone else's life as MY MN posse have pretty much saved mine

Lastly (IF Plan B applies) - it is not 'click/s' but 'cliques' to which I THINK you were referring. In Plan A - I would be doing ALL I could to (genuinely and with good intent) help you towards a literacy class. But if it IS Plan B - then please know that as well as being deeply offensive to ALL of us, you are as thick as shit.

Kindest regards,
AM

reelingintheyears · 12/10/2013 00:21

Meh, you get piles anyway Olivia.

Fact of life. Angry

ScarerStratton · 12/10/2013 00:24

Oi oi, what's going on here, then? Have you narsty meanies been bjullying again? Hmm

Tiredmumno1 · 12/10/2013 00:24

Stratters it's all Olivia's fault, honest.

YouTheCat · 12/10/2013 00:25

My twins gave me the most horrific piles. It was a baptism of fire into parenthood, I can tell you.

Auto-rocking chair/thing is your friend - appease one twin while you deal with the other one.

Tiredmumno1 · 12/10/2013 00:25

Crap I really am off now.

Hugs n stuff (couldn't resist) Grin
