To be fed up of Instamums

[Hmmmmx100]

I followed a few of the more well-known Instamums but got weary of the constant daily barrage of brand endorsements. I can't relate to people on £100k a year in Farrow & Ball houses. I just can't. So I had to unfollow em all, every one. AIBU to feel a bit miffed that these people are using the idea of sisterhood to make money? They're not our friends, they're just there to sell us stuff that we probably don't need anyway.

PM over here as well please! For both bullying insta 'mama' and name of foodbank/saltwater lady.

Ugh...'FODS magical mystery tour.'

He reminds me of someone who used to be a red trouser wearing posho and is desperately trying to find his 'edge,' by growing a beard, being in touch with his feminine side and living in south London, but he can't stop slipping back into his competitive, overly verbose public school mannerisms.

I actually don't mind MOD but FOD annoys me for exactly that reason lang.

Is the Mum with lots of children a victim of dv? I'm getting that from her blog.

Yes Lang I agree.

I think Fod is king of the smug instamummies.

FoD is irritating my nerves since we started discussing him here. I once found him funny and quite endearing last week but I'm increasingly annoyed by his FoDonTour twattiness.

I think the 700,000 and likes have gone to his quiff.

Read the earlier comments on his recent ad. Own up people.

Surely there must be someone here who might know someone who has once worked with him and has tales of workplace smuggery? I can imagine he answers phones sat back in his chair with his feet on the desk and sends long winded try hard witty group emails. He's so horribly familiar.

I think I'm overthinking FOD.

Classy: yes! Total parody! Like the David Brent of smug Lycra instadaddies.

Who is the 12 kids one?! Why can't we say the name?

Total parody! Like the David Brent of smug Lycra instadaddies

Yes

Some of you seem a little over invested in hating these people. I see someone has made an account on Instagram and trolled FOD directing him to this thread.

Really? I doubt he gives a shit.

Narcissists like him don't take heed of the little people's haterz' opinions

Oh he won't care. He will probably be flattered people care enough to talk about him.

Was that you, blackhills?

These people are so self absorbed that they won't give flying shit.

He's a SOCIAL INFLUENCER, don't you know? Cool as fuck.

There's a stream of people already saying that they trust everything he advertises because it's him, so his work is done tbh. It's probably done him more of a favour.

God people are gullible aren't they

I don't begrudge him making money, and tbh being able to spend more time with his family than his previous job, it just all feels so set up now. He started off funny and different, now it just seems commercialised. But again, if it gives them a better lifestyle, then I guess you can see why he's taken the PR companys advice and gone for this.

Lemmings.

Instalemmings.

'We can make you rich, just surrender your name and only answer to FOD, oh and keep that facial hair - it suits the brand'

Over invested Dakota? You are probably right but it's very human I think to love to hate certain people, especially when there's arrogance and smuggery (see Peter Andre threads) and if you throw Lycra, beards and fake family chaos set up for the camera for a group of gushing sycophants then it's a tinder box!
