Come and help.

Fruit shoots? Disabled vs parent parking? The nhs? Mcdonalds? Skanky benefit claimants and their 100000000000 offspring? Boden?

Come on people, I need to get this anger out!

I have private healthcare - why the fuck should I contribute NI to pay for YOUR NHS?

The thread about smoking in the station doorway is currently getting good and fighty...

There is a sweary quiz on Buzzfeed at the moment and it taught me a new swear.

JIZZ LOBSTERS.

I find it very cathartic wandering around the house and yelling 'JIZZ LOBSTERS' as loud as I can.

AchyMcAcherson · 30/09/2014 16:49

Have a look at the 'blister on vagina' thread. One reply & it's snarky one about the correct anatomical names. I reckon it's going to kick off. You could wade in on that one nice & early.

ithoughtofitfirst · 30/09/2014 16:50

I've done my bit on the smoking thread.

AchyMcAcherson · 30/09/2014 16:51

Oh and Chazs, you have a loo brush?!!

Vintagejazz · 30/09/2014 16:54

I have a sign on my car saying 'Holly-Mai on Board'.

Fact: I hear the ToryNHS is going to charge a cash-up-front levy if you want a female obstetrician to treat you because it takes so very much longer for women to learn basic things than men, and they have to cover the additional insurance costs because they just seem to screw up diagnoses all the time. Not to even mention dropping the babies!

You don't want to fight. You want to laugh. Watch this:

Don't ger me started on poor parking.
As nobody knows me here, I can reveal that I wrote an irate message in lipstick on the driver's window of a car I had to park next to on Saturday. There were clearly marked spaces, but the driver zoomed in and left the front tyre over the line for my space, with masses of room on the other side.
As we were bith in the same make if car I felt fully justified in telling the driver thar they should learn to park properly as they were giving drivers of our make of car a bad name.
I was a little worried about repercussions, but as my model trumped the other by a way, I thought "what the blazes"!

Ummm .......what's controversial about

  1. Boden?
  2. Loo brushes?

(am honestly not trying to encourage your flightiness, just curious)
(although feel free to have a rant if it'll y'know, release some of your anger issues)

AdamLambsbreath · 30/09/2014 17:48

I've genuinely no idea about Boden.

Loo brushes . . . run it through the MN search engine and prepare for disbelief

ChazsBrilliantAttitude · 30/09/2014 17:48

Depending on your perspective
Loo brushes are:-
a) a functional item for cleaning the loo; or
b) germ ridden festering sources of plague that shouldn't be given house room

There was quite a heated thread on this point a while back.

AdamLambsbreath · 30/09/2014 17:50

There are loads. I just followed my own advice and searched 'loo brush' . . . wow.

AchyMcAcherson · 30/09/2014 17:54

It's a minefield isn't it? I have those disposable ones. What's the thinking on those?

I wash tea towels in the same wash as my DH's boxers AIBU?

AchyMcAcherson · 30/09/2014 17:55

Oh FFS. (Or DFS as my stupid phone wants to say)

Thebodyloveschocolateandwine · 30/09/2014 17:56

Mil has brought a breast pump and wants to have my new born overnight!

I always make a point of parking in the P&C spaces and have no small children.

I read and belive the daily mail. It's ace.

Fuck off
.

reallyneedmoresleep · 30/09/2014 17:57

Wow; so the gospel according to MN is that possession of a loo brush = foul, skanky chav???

What if I used a loo brush whilst wearing Boden?

LoveTap1664 · 30/09/2014 17:58

+1 for the Daily Mail

I didn't even try BFing DS, straight onto the bottle for him, straight onto the vino for me

AdamLambsbreath · 30/09/2014 18:04

Explain the Boden please

I don't even know what it is

Thebodyloveschocolateandwine · 30/09/2014 18:05

Breast feeding is so yeuk. Think it's disgusting in a public place.

Co sleeping with boys makes them gay you know. It's in the daily mail
