I'm really VERY new to MN. But v v v into it. But I've only ever done AIBU. It's the first thing I found. It's where I have lurked, the reason I joined and where I have exclusively posted.

I have never explored any other part of the MN site (am I a fool? Are you laughing at me now? I found AIBU totally satisfying up until now)

However, I have just done a post on Style and Beauty. The only reason I even KNOW about Style and Beauty is because it was mentioned in a thread on AIBU, and I checked a zombie thread (incidentally, that was Yoni - it was awesome! Envy).

But I had an issue... a problem... a worry, and it wasn't suitable for AIBU.

So I posted on style and beauty, which WAS suitable. I was honest about the situation. I told them immediately and upfront (well, in the second, clarifying post) that I am neither stylish nor beautiful.

I had some helpful responses. I was grateful. Yes - I'll say it - I was appreciating the comments I received.

But I feel a little bit soiled. Slightly ashamed.... I went to S&B and posted on the internet. Have I behaved badly, and compromised my morals?

Will AIBU have me back again? I WANT to come back again. I WANT to be viper on a Friday and Saturday night. I want to judge and condemn or champion and support. I WANT to make amends. I want it to work! I WILL change. People DO change. (I want Worra and Welsh to cheer me on) Is this an impossible hope?

Also (insert emoticon for woolfish laugh) what else am I missing????

Confused Ermm..

WorraLiberty · 23/05/2015 00:19

This is the beginning of the end.

You can't possibly come back here to AIBU, with your HD eyebrows and Boden dresses, and expect to be welcomed with open arms.

You'll be wearing white linen 'Mummy trousers' soon enough.

I'm sorry but this is bullshit.

You have no place in this topic any more Sad

emotionsecho · 23/05/2015 00:21

Peculiar, very peculiar.

This thread is so manic...

No it cant.

I'm sorry, it's not me - it's you xxx

Fatmomma99 · 23/05/2015 00:49

Get out. And close the door after you. I'm actually apauled. Or should that be aporled? Wink

Kleptronic · 23/05/2015 00:51

I just posted on S&B and I saw your thread. If you get more post than me it's handbags at dawn I tell you. Then there will be NO more topics for you. Grr.

IFinishedTheBiscuits · 23/05/2015 00:52

Aw Jeez. Was at least hoping for a drunken snog.

Fatmomma99 · 23/05/2015 00:52

Worra: Plus, i didn't mean it.. I just took their advice and then left. Please let me back here to rant and give all my opinions, regardless of whether I have knowledge of the subject or not,.... please don't say I don't belong here.. It was only the once, and I'll never do it again.

OP posts:
WorraLiberty · 23/05/2015 00:55

Kleptronic I'm sorry but you'll have to name the designer of said handbags at dawn, otherwise this shallow victim of fashion OP will have no interest in your post.

Don't shoot me...it's just the way it is Sad

abigamarone · 23/05/2015 00:57

I quite like S&B, I've hit the age where I'm thinking I ought to have a 'good' bag. Too scared to work up the courage to post about in there yet though.

Kleptronic · 23/05/2015 00:58

Ah Worra it wasn't about handbags it was about shoes. But at the risk of being barred out of S&B forever, I name the largest bag I own: Radley.

WorraLiberty · 23/05/2015 00:58

X posted OP

" It was only the once, and I'll never do it again."

Are you wearing skinny jeans and a smartly but blazer while typing right now?

Be honest you unfaithful bastard

Fatmomma99 · 23/05/2015 01:00

I get it. I have seen your posts.

I see the wrongness of my ways.

but (mwyahaa) I will name change and I WILL be back and I will conquer you all. Worra and all of you will BOW DOWN before me and I will forgive you, because I have HAD replies from style and beauty! And I know what it is to be there instead of here.

Kleptronic... off to post on your S&B post now (where these won't dare follow - please don't be about mummy trousers)

IFfinished, I'll happily snog you any time, if I'm ever allowed back. But here's x from me to you!

WorraLiberty · 23/05/2015 01:01

*cut blazer

I'm too distressed to type tbh.

The largest bag I own is a Hobby Craft carrier bag.

I only bought some cardboard for my DS's school project but I swear I could have housed a small Afican village in that bag.

Kleptronic · 23/05/2015 01:05

I'm actually wearing a Phase 8 tunic. Right now. In real life. That and the Large Radley means I have to beat myself to death with my own handbag. Again. Fuck. Confused

Fatmomma99 · 23/05/2015 01:10

Lots of crossed posts. I need to rush back to S&B (surely my spiritual home?) to look at Kleptronics's post.

But can I just say... I have a collection of FABULOUS handbags, which would put all of the S&B women to shame (including a hand-made designer one for my 40th, which I don't dare confess to all the cousins who clubbed together to buy me, I have broken, because I put too much crap in my handbags). (big boast about belonging on S&B, not bothering with stealth!)

Right now, I'm wearing lots of things with elasticated waists, and a jumper so full of holes, DH has tactfully suggested I don't wear outside the house ("because you work in the community and people could judge you") and DD has sobbed "you're showing me up". S*B really ISN'T my natural home!

Worra - i feel you are weakening....
