...to think that if I want to be unreasonable and post about it in AIBU

[SoupDragon]

and that others have no right to whinge?

yes! I mean no, umm what was the question again?

Oi! I wasn't whinging!

Merely being facetious.

You can be as facetious as you like my sweet! - In fact, why don't we have a topic called 'I know I'm being facetious but...'

Did I say it was you? [innocent]

I do not think it is unreasonable to start a thread about the unreasonableness of Mumsnetters since the introduction of the unreasonable threads in an unreasonably facetious manner, so much so I think I may have to start an am I being unreasonable thread about this.

oh don't be so farking reasonable!

I always get facetious and pedantic mixed up.
What is the definition of these words?

No, I don't think you are being unreasonabl. But is it unreasonable to expect that if you are being unreasonable that other people may be being unreasonable by suggesting that you are being unreasonable by asking if you are being unreasonable?
