Nanny wouldn't get it

I'm sure you'll feel my pain, I wanted Nanny to give me her phone (it was on the shelf), so I could make important phone calls.I have a social life as well Nanny!

However, she refused, as she was 'busy.' As far as I can see cooking a chicken isn't as important as me. That chicken's already roasted, but I'm still here and I have needs that far outweigh a roasted chicken. Time is biscuits Nanny!

WIBU to cry and not talk to her. She's acting all offended, I've told her she's dead to me until I want some sweets.

'Somewhere,' not 'and somewhere'

Well. That escalated quickly.

Mneh. I don't like these threads. Forced comedy, parents thinking about how to word something online to get 'likes' or posts on a forum. That's my personal opinion though. No reason to be proper dicks to the op.

Indignant's a remarkably complex word for a toddler...

The thing is I am in the majority, this thread is yawn..NEXT!

It's just weird. Being nasty to someone when they've done sod all wrong. And then seemingly gloating about it, as though it's witty and clever to be spiteful to someone who hasn't hurt anyone. It is not.

StillStayingClassySanDiego my understanding is that you don't get deleted for pointing out that someone has in fact posted like a twat; you get deleted for saying that they are a twat. So you're okay to attack unpleasant statements, just not the stater.

But that understanding may be out of date.

I can still remember being two and screaming at my dad for 'red toast', then being sat on the stairs (presumably a naughty step) continuing to scream for red toast. I wanted raspberry jam on bettered white toast, cut into soldiers. Each offering my dad brought wasn't quite the right combination so I just continued to scream.

My brother told me bollox do I remember stuff from when I was two, but I've checked with my dad and this actually happened. I can even remember the pain of continuing to wail, wanting to stop, but stubbornly persisting with the idea that continuing would bring me what I wanted.

It didn't.

Never got red toast. I had to learn to explain in a full descriptive sentence what I wanted to eat.

Reeeed toooooooooooast

Buttered white, not bettered, as in margarine on wholemeal was just never going to cut it.

You're only in the majority if you have no idea what majority means, can't read and haven't RTFT.

ReginaBlitz, you sound exactly like a spiteful 8 year old - "I've got more friends than you have, so nerrr". Only you haven't.

I would have enjoyed this thread, it demonstrates the very worst of mn that anyone who doesn't like this type of thread with the full and absolute power to ignore it or not read further than OP instead choosing to unleash vitriol designed to prevent others enjoying it. Very sad that Martha and her ilk feel it necessary to spoil others enjoyment so needlessly. OP Flowers
