I'm glad I'm not the only one that's noticed.

There is a great thread about the s*m whale for sale in Tesco at the moment.

BlueFolly · 31/08/2016 21:23

I recon it's cos of all the threads that've been in the Daily Mail recently. I think it's attracted a different style of mumsnetter. Fucking DM sad face on me right now!

i have been posting quite a bit on mumsnet recently and have found myself swearing a lot more and I feel like I've found my feet a bit. Its very fucking liberating. Everyone should bastard try it.

It's fucking annoying, I agree, do these people not read any threads before they post, so don't realise you can swear? Or have they rocked up to try and set an example?!

Ratley · 31/08/2016 21:41

Well, I don't swear, never have.
For the most part its unnecessary, however, if you are a sweary person, you are a sweary person and so why only put half the word. Unless you aren't actually a sweary person and just want to fit in despite being a bit uncomfortable with it.
In short either don't swear, or swear in full the stars are a bit pointless.

ALemonyPea · 31/08/2016 21:41

Finally! Thought I was losing the plot.

If you can't type a swear word without stars, then don't type one.

MissBeaHaving · 31/08/2016 21:43

My guess is the banned members from the dark side ,they think they might get kicked off if they use bad language here.

We love a fucking good swear hear,don't be shy!Wink

Ginslinger · 31/08/2016 21:43

If you don't swear just use normal words and leave the stars at home.

MissBeaHaving · 31/08/2016 21:43

*here even

Mooey89 · 31/08/2016 21:44

Fuck me I'm glad I found this.

I can't even work out what they are trying to say!

Mummyshortlegz · 31/08/2016 21:45

It's getting right on my cunt

meridithssister · 31/08/2016 21:45

Maybe a few new recruits from the fluffy side.....

Rrross1ges · 31/08/2016 21:46

Tesco are selling sperm whales? In the fish aisle? You'd definitely need a 10p carrier bag for one of those fuckers.

It's all the users having to log in. At least one of those is a total bitch hiding behind her anonymity.

ParanoidGynodroid · 31/08/2016 21:58

I've seen so many of these today, too. Can't be arsed working out what they're trying to say half the time.

The S*m whale is hilarious!
