Long time lurker but finally tackled my commitment issues and joined the vipers nest Hmm
I have found myself saying to my DH constantly:
"Well on MN this happened..."

"Yeah didn't finish housework because there was this thread on MN...."

"....oooh I don't know....let me check MN"

Well just wanted to say hi really!

since finding AIBU I really HAVE found myself in certain situations where before MN I would have been pissed off or irritated but now I do stop myself and think AM I? AIBU? (usually I am a bit)

I don't actually pause life to check every teeny thing on MN. I value your opinion but there is a limit!

You didn't finish your housework!? what the hell were you think!? Hang. Your. Head. In. Shame.

Hi TakestheMNbiscuit

DH LOVES a good AIBU, he always answers 1st before hearing the responses.

If google doesn't give DH the answer he is looking for he will ask me to check MN.

Its the future Grin

I don't think YABU.

Your DH is BU to expect the housework doing

LTB! Lazy fecker Wink

I said "yabu" to my mum last week, out loud! Made myself a bit scared!

wherethewildthingis · 13/11/2013 15:19

Though she was BU

TakestheMNbiscuit · 13/11/2013 15:19

I just knew I was going to love it here! I figure as long as the house is presentable and babies fed then I'm not addicted, right?

I would LTB but quite like the income he generates ;)

Presentable house? Blimey youre doing well.

As long as the cupboards are shut and the chaos doesn't fall out I'm happy!

SmiteYouWithThunderbolts · 13/11/2013 15:21

YANBU. Or if you are BU, so am I. If DH and I disagree about something, he gives me the look and asks if I'm going to start a thread on MN to ask "a bunch of internet weirdos" to resolve our issue.

TakestheMNbiscuit · 13/11/2013 15:21

Lol wherethewildthingis i too do this! And clearly the other person is always BU....

*wonders why I didn't stumble upon this haven before

By presentable I mean I won't be appearing on any tv shows regarding my home - although currently I complete only what I can between changing babies and consulting the wisdom of you lot ....
