Mumsnet is a Cauldron of Hate!!!

[iver]

"I argue with people on Facebook all the time but even I'm not brave enough to venture onto that cauldron of hate and judgment mumsnet is the online equivalent of football hooligans going at it."

just found this fb comment on a news link about a thread on here made me laugh

What thread is it about?

the poster who didn't like her engagement ring

"here we go, here we go, here we go!"

Did someone ask about a gift list for a baby shower?

We should make this the official MN mug of choice .

There's me thinking MN is a nest of vipers........

just going for a fly on my broom.. won't be long

It's a cauldron of hate, waiting at the school gate! That's a tenuous link to a song...

mumsnet is the online equivalent of football hooligans going at it.

Who are ya? Who are ya? Who are ya?

It is terrifying looking in, but once you're in it's fine 😎

I think they're right. I find so many posters arsey these days. The amusing ones seem to have left.

I think new tag line should be: mumsnet 'for sneery parents to kick struggling parents'.

I read that one, she was ungrateful and superficial as the 'diamond wasn't big enough for her' her own words. She just didn't like the truth that everyone gave.

I prefer Stockpot of Evil.

slow cooker of spite?

'Judge, all ye who enter here'

My favourite is when someone's got real difficult stuff going on and loads of posters pile in to humiliate them about their poor syntax.

'No spellcheck, no support"

Fillet of a fenny snake, in the cauldron boil and bake....

(ok, I know that's really eels, but it was the nearest I could bet to a coven of vipers with cauldron)

Le Creuset Casserole of Cruelty

Not liking that comma.

These days it's more like a nest of angry wasps. Angry, resentful wasps who bear grudges.

Hubble bubble toil and trouble
Daily Mail readers are wankers
They live in a bubble.

Instapot of insecurity...

I'm not sure if it's a 'cauldron of hate' but it seems to becoming more and more like a cauldron of 'I'm going to put you in your place with a sharp put down even if even if it's a thread on a totally innocuous subject and/or even if you sound a bit vulnerable in your opening post'.

Well all I can say is good. They ought to be in awe of women who can stand up for themselves and ask for help when needed.

To troubled souls, they used to say 'this too shall pass' (?)
Now they say, "don't let the door hit you on the arse"
