Irrational Judgy Pants thread.

[FretYeNotAllIsShiny]

I've got new neighbours. I really doubt they are my kind of people. They've got a glittery toilet seat.

What makes you hoik up your Irrational Judgy Pants?

I couldn't agree more.
Do not want to think of the last big push at work.
We should start calling it the last big rectal examination or some equivalent horror that men have to go through.

Oh yeah.there isn't one.

Why do some women think "big push" refers to childbirth? It can just as easily connote the final part of an expedition or a mountain climb.

Grown women that use those stupid dog/rabbit filters on FB.

Buthewas hahahahaha

Constance yes! So stupid.

I really had my judged pants on the other day with two children about 7 or 8 both dresses in full army combat gear complete with helmets and partially covered faces playing with guns at a national trust property. They weren't naughty but I don't like to see children playing with guns and it just seemed a bit much for a stately home! The other was a really noisy family in s cathedral. Neither the adults or the kids knew how to behave in a church.

I am incredibly judgmental over many things, most of which I'm pleased to say have been posted already.

• hyphenated first names
• gendered slogans on clothes and clothes that say "I love Mummy/Daddy"
• Little Prince/Princess On Board signs in cars
• shortened words like chippy, sarnie, cuppa
• pierced ears on babies
• brutally short hair cuts on little boys
• nursery graduation ceremonies with mortarboards and gowns
• glittery nails
• toilet based swearing, especially terms like "shits and giggles"

I'm sure there's more

Yy to the nursery graduations with mortar boards and robes. One near me had shiny, gold ones!!!! Is this Hollywood? Awful.
. My wee boy recently finished nursery- they all had smart clothes on, had a sing song and received a book and pencil.case. Perfect.

Nursery and primary school graduations. Arghh!

I am appalled that DS's nursery are holding one for the first time this year. I am boycotting and taking DS out as he would hate it even more than me. I think other parents might feel the same as last I heard only one parent had RSVPd.

I can't see why you'd want to speak to them on Facebook. Do you think they can see it

I lost my son a few weeks after he was born and then his father killed himself a year later on the 1st anniversary. That was 30 years ago, but each year, on that day I write a message to them both on Facebook. I know damn well neither of them will see it, but it is my one indulgence. That one message on that one day to show that although my life has moved on, they will always be part of it. If I didn't have social media I'd write a letter, but I do have SM and it allows me to share that message with the few other people in my life who remember and miss them too.

Sorry to derail.

I nearly posted this actually . And it's always people who are quite pretty to start with I can't help notice

Zee
I remember you from the CG thread and wanted to say hello as read your story to start with (thread one)

You do what you like in Facebook

This is a shallow thread for petty gripes cxx

I'm good at shallow gripes as well

Generally about other people's parenting.....children running around in restaurants, not saying please or thank you, parents who don't want other adults telling their kids off when they are being little shits.....

Parents who boast about free range children (makes me think of chickens)

The govt going on about hard working families ( makes me think of sending the kids up chimneys and what about single/childless people? Don't they work hard too?)

Those couples who can never do anything apart - you are so dull

And the classic, vague Facebook statuses and the incessant checking in - one person checked in at the Hospice when she went to visit my dying mother and again at the fucking crem on the day of her funeral. Oh and on the day she died this person wrote a totally self absorbed post about losing her dear friend who she hadn't seen for a fucking decade and got lots of her disciples with their poor Hun shit.

Thanks stop and hello to you too

People who wear leisure wear but aren't going to the gym.

Adults using #goals, eg, # relationship goals, # squad goals, are you Taylor Swift
Sparkly princess / mummy's lil dude on board type stickers.
People using #proudmumma / mumma bear.
"Love you lots like jelly tots" makes my eyes twitch.
A "cheeky" anything, especially on a "school night".

North face down filled jackets worn in an office on a summer day.
And those adverts (seem to be on less now thankfully) with the gyrating pole dancing builder, and suit jacketed man in shorts and high heels, waving his arse at the camera. I wouldn't want my DCs to copy that behaviour, its not appropriate for kids to watch and think of as fun -its an adult, late night way to dance...I know its judgey, but this advert brings out the Victorian grandma in me!!

People who take photographs of art usually in churches abroad. Effectively they ignore the request not to do so which is always displayed. I also really HATE people who go around a main art gallery - again usually in Italy or somewhere - taking a stupid photograph of every painting AND the accompanying information. It us utterly moronic to look at the art through a camera lense. Some of them even video. Argh

...is

Oh and the "mess with my son and I'll bury you where no one will find you or I will always be my son's first love" posts.
They just make me think I'll be reading about that person on a mumsnet MIL post in years to come then...

Definitely feeling judged here as I have

Glittery loo seat (and bath mat with glitter & shower curtain with glittery ribbon border and glittery mosaic bin, soap dish, toothbrush holder) - bite me, I like sparkly things!
Red faux-vintage bread bin, caddies etc in kitchen. Kettle etc are "retro" style too.
Sticks in oil
Fairy lights
"Live Laugh Love" (one of the panels in it is duck egg blue too!) and XOXO thingies
Candles, lots of them
Massive L-shaped sofa.

I judged the couple in the supermarket earlier who let their small child push the trolley round getting in everyone's way, culminating in her ramming it into my toes and them tutting at me for not jumping out of the way quickly enough. Twats!

Oh how could I forget #BOYDONEGOOD every Christmas, birthday, anniversary.. Boy? He's fucking 46 .
Christ, I'm a miserable bitch

Anyone who uses "his" instead of "he is".

Completely irrational but it makes my teeth itch
