'We've deleted this thread because Maui'

Mumsnet Gold! Had me properly howling. Well played MNHQ, well played.

Wish I'd seen how the thread panned out though! Wink

No no, they didn't ORDER a new sofa. They were finally getting close to agreeing on a sofa.

Oh I saw that, had to look twice as I thought I had read it wrong. 24 weeks pregnant and needed to pee at the time was very proud of my pelvic floor for holding up!

memyselfandaye · 31/03/2016 16:25

squeegy You got it wrong. She was pleased to announce they had ALMOST agreed on a sofa! Grin

Oldraver · 31/03/2016 16:28

How do you pronounce Maui ? In my head it goes ..Mooow-you-eee

Penguinepenguins · 31/03/2016 16:29

OMG the sofa debates continues how will I sleep tonight!!!

lorelei9here · 31/03/2016 16:29

oh she's real

has no one else been unlucky enough to meet this type? She says things like "Daahlling, have you lost weight?" - with appraising glance - every time she sees you because she thinks it's flattering.

Alongside - Is that bag Lulu Guinness - with a hurt look when i say, get real, it's from Debenhams

and "those diamond studs MUST be real" - nope.

oh and a cheese that I don't normally buy because it's too pricey was referred to as a "poor man's version of.." actually I don't recall the posh cheese name.

So yes, she exists and no, I will never ever be stupid enough to let her in my home again, though frankly I'm amazed she deigned to enter such a small flat. In reality I think she thought I was just occupying one tiny flat in Daddy's large portfolio.

lorelei9here · 31/03/2016 16:30

PS I didn't see the the thread or deletion message but from now on my short code for raging snobbery will be "because Maui". Grin

Ah memyself, thanks. Still, it's a relief to know they've almost agreed. Grin

SqueegyBeckinheim · 31/03/2016 16:41

It rhymes with wowee.

I don't know if she's real or not, but much like Fox Mulder, I want to believe.

Floggingmolly · 31/03/2016 16:45

Thanks, YesThisIsMe. That explains a lot...

Ginslinger · 31/03/2016 16:46

I'm just saying that I haven't seen Hully for a while - she used to do a good line or two

MrsMainwaring · 31/03/2016 16:46

Whaaaaaaat , she's finally chosen THE sofa ???
How did I miss that ?

Notimefortossers · 31/03/2016 17:00

Or the badger cam one where the DH was sanding his knob. Or the one where the pfb mum wanted to screen birth on a loop at her dd's christening

Good Lord I'm gutted to have missed those!! The poster who finds the links to these threads for me will be rewarded with Chocolate

The twins thread was in the name of heyhailey. I remember specifically because I posted 'All credit to heyhailey for not name changing after all the Maui comments!' Grin

I thought the phrase coined to announce the impending sofa decision was 'I can finally reveal'

Notimefortossers · 31/03/2016 17:02

lorelei9here Are you actually saying you've met the real Hailey?? Or just that type?

OP posts:
lorelei9here · 31/03/2016 17:03

OP - I missed those too!

just the type Grin the Hailey I met was already married. But honestly, there is a type and I do think there is an excellent chance Hailey is real.

Notimefortossers · 31/03/2016 17:10

I've met the type too and I think she was real and highly amusing Grin

OP posts:
PixieChops · 31/03/2016 17:11

She also said it was the dog turd sofa (which a previous poster had made a thread about) this isn't true but I really hope that's what she wants

HappinessLivesHere · 31/03/2016 17:16

Knew which message you meant before I read the thread!! Absolutely LOVED it!!

maybebabybee · 31/03/2016 17:18

Maui woman reminds me of young South Kensington mother whose family own a chain of hotels who couldn't be arsed getting up in the morning to take her DC to school.

Notimefortossers · 31/03/2016 17:18

I think 'Because Maui' is going to become a bit of a thing. Grin

OP posts:
Penguinepenguins · 31/03/2016 17:22

I have had an experience of someone who was reffered to as a "me-me"

She would say things like "your looking so healthy" when you put on weight and what a lovely home please do show me upstairs" when it was a flat Hmm she was a complete nightmare and would expect everyone to drop everything for her but would do nothing for anyone else. Incredibly clever and pretty (she thought she was stunning) and generally very very annoying she drove me nuts! She would come to the house with one cheap bottle of wine and take anything left and drink (lots) the good stuff - I nearly wrote about her on another post yesterday!

Completely and utterly unaware of anyone else and frightfully annoying.

I feel a bit sorry for this girl Haleigh though, yes she seems unaware that she can be annoying (not so unaware now I guess) but she is very entertaining - and a part of me actually feels very bad if this is a real person because I would imagine this is incredibly upsetting to discover what people really think of you.

The flip side is maybe she will become a better person which will help her DH to be (I don't know why I'm convinced he will be called Tarquini Smythe spelt Smith

I am gutted mumsnet deleted it! And do want to know about the wedding even if it's fake I don't care it's just marvellous reading

lorelei9here · 31/03/2016 17:26

Penguin "The flip side is maybe she will become a better person which will help her DH to be"

er, no, the help he's getting is half her fortune when they divorce!
