AIBU to think this is the best section on MN?

[shakethetree]

Why do people keep moaning about it? - I love it!

If you don't like it hide the bleedin' thing, or even easier, just don't read any of the threads - there's 100's of other sections to moan about!

And if they do we'll blame Harold.

There's some boys already behind the bike shed

Shit. They fancy Harold. They like rebellious types

No Vintage, it isn't. That's what I'm saying. There's some definite double-standards though... also not nice.

Maryz... I think it was aimed at ALL of AIBU. I don't remember everything about the thread but it was a 'pile in' job as they always seem to be and almost everybody was a 'cunt'.

I realise I'm on my own here but is there a worse name to call somebody?

But the only double standards on here that I'm seeing Witch are Sienna's posts, being snide about other posters while stating she disapproves of nastiness.

Why do I feel like a goader is that word? just by reading this thread? I was reported and had a thread deleted within a couple of weeks of joining, so there! Does that mean I'm a goader or a troll? This is all so confusing.

I don't know stay I am mightily confused. To be on the safe side you'd better report yourself and have a hot shower.

Vintage... Do you see no similarity from Sienna's posts to threads started/posted on, to call multiple people 'cunts', without naming the erstwhile posters who've caused the furore? I see it as exactly the same thing and yes, it's annoying whoever does it.

I don't think this thread was started to call multiple people 'cunts'. And the word 'cunt' was used to describe a certain type of poster but not directed specifically at a certain group of posters as Sienna's was.

It's a bit difference.

BIG difference, I meant.

Thank you Harold, I think I'd better use carbolic soap and a wire brush, to be on the safe side.

No, not THIS thread. The myriad others... and there are many.

Fair enough. But how does that excuse Sienna's posts on here?

Can I blame Harold for the Garth Brooke concerts being cancelled here in Dublin? We need someone to blame.

I've not seen a thread specifically aimed at a small group of posters. AIBU is huge. I have seen threads aimed at it as a topic, but going onto a thread where a few people are singled out or inferred as being nasty or whatever is different.

That was my fault.

I goaded him so much he couldn't sing no more.

All sections have people bitching about something stupid and pointless. I think AIBU is more of a symptom than a cause.

Mumsnet is full of sleep deprived hormonal mothers. I think bitchiness and irrational hysteria are to be expected. :)

Not general cunts.

Is it just me or did anyone else just picture a General Cunt in uniform?

Well I blame Harold and Barack in equal portions. In fact I also blame Queen Elizabeth and the Pope.
