I just saw a thread where someone admitted to watching tv ( ITV no less) in the day.

Is a fruit bowl working class then? What do MC people do with fruit?

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 13/04/2018 15:31

Mc kids are fed fruit intravenously so no need for a fruit bowl.

I’m very upset by the way MN has come down in the world. I have a piano, you know, I don’t want to mix with daytime telly-watchers and people who wear pyjamas to Tesco’s.

Mookatron · 13/04/2018 15:33

I mean, I have cake forks

Thoth · 13/04/2018 15:35

Arf@ nethuns being MC!

I'm glad MN has a broad spectrum of society, makes it interesting, doesn't it?

KaliforniaDreamz · 13/04/2018 15:35

Do you allow ketchup on the table?

THAT is the question...

MissMorkansAnnualDance · 13/04/2018 15:35

I'd say it's come down a class or two since the OP started her GF thread.

Don't worry (the real Vladimir) nobody will confuse you with the OP who doesn't gaf but clearly likes to play the gf.

Thoth · 13/04/2018 15:36

Cake forks? Mookatron, netmums is that way ==>

BiddydeBint · 13/04/2018 15:38

God, are white upvc doors common now? I'm considering getting a new one. I can just stick the hose on it when it looks grubby, and it will wash down, all nice and clean. And it won't swell and stick

Mookatron · 13/04/2018 15:40

My cake forks are definitely MC, my MIL gave me them and she was always trying to make me MC. Lovely woman who very nearly managed to hide her wince when my mum said 'toilet'.

I think the OP is a long time poster. I recognise the style. Thought she had defected to twitter though.

Bluntness100 · 13/04/2018 15:41

I also think the name thing is a bit close. I'd change it if I was you. I thought the original had changed names the other day to an abbreviated version.

Did uou not know or did you do it on purpose?

Thoth · 13/04/2018 15:42

Sorry, cake forks are completely Hyacinth Bucket territory! (Lmc)

KaliforniaDreamz · 13/04/2018 15:43

TK Maxx sells cake forks and the like. make of that what you will...

Mookatron · 13/04/2018 15:44

Well. There you are then. OP is right.

VladmirsPoutine · 13/04/2018 15:47

How might one issue a cease and desist order to MN!! I might just actually follow VP round the boards just quoting that, actually:

"I hereby issue you an order to cease and desist!"

umpteennamechanges · 13/04/2018 15:49

I'll have you know I have a copy of Country Livinf magazine and Waitrose magazine on my coffee table at the moment.

Not middle class. I say...

mimibunz · 13/04/2018 15:51

People will admit to anything on MN. Remember the Sistine Screamer?

PickAChew · 13/04/2018 15:51

I have cake forks chosen by ds1. He thought they were cute.

Elendon · 13/04/2018 15:51

Putain! Merde!

I have a toilet brush.

I shop in a shop for my groceries.

But I love that joke that when the fruit bowl was filled in a working class family the immediate question was, who is sick?

Lweji · 13/04/2018 15:52

Do you allow ketchup on the table?

THAT is the question...

DS uses a special type of ketchup that floats.

turnipfarmers · 13/04/2018 15:54

I'm watching ITV and I've still got my pyjamas on whilst my children Chavette and Chelseigh are tarting themselves up to make memories.

Elendon · 13/04/2018 15:54

Do you keep the ketchup in the fridge?

That's the question.

PinkCalluna · 13/04/2018 15:55

MN I don’t know what it was like in the days if green fields but I’ve been on MN for more than a decade and it’s never been only MC in that time.

OhGood · 13/04/2018 15:55

I just bought more leggings. I don't have enough leggings.
