BUNFIGHT HERE

999 replies

beluga425 · 07/06/2018 14:54

Am I imagining it or are very simple innocuous threads descending into bunfights more frequently.

I cordially invite everyone to ready their flinging buns here instead. Needed are:

  • Someone to police the fight (whilst stirring it up a bit);
  • Grammar police to insure everybodies writing proper (your welcome);
  • Someone to ignore the basic points and totally misinterpret the thread;
  • About 50 posters to find increasingly patronising ways of saying RTFT;
  • Someone to be utterly horrified;
  • Punctuation lessons from those in-the-know;;;;;;;;
-Liberal use of these two: Hmm Confused;
  • and a passive aggressive "Wow, just wow" on page 3.

It sounds like you have been drinking and as everyone knows more than a small sherry at Christmas means you definitely have a problem with alcohol.

Do you have a dropped kerb?
Draw a diagram.

Campfire · 07/06/2018 23:39

Do you want your daughters to think it's normal to be afraid of bunfights? Think of the example you're setting.

LuMarie · 07/06/2018 23:40

Oh I should have said that I already have three, they're called XENON (in capitals), Xpimping and Xendrakelynn Sophia Eva Adeline Ava Whoopi Grace

So something that matches with those

Bookemdannoplease · 07/06/2018 23:41

Oh while I'm here forgot to ask for a name for my new parrot as I'm totally incapable of thinking of a name. Well I did think of one 'bird' does anyone like it? Have been losing sleep thou thinking it might be sexist? Or Kermit cos she's green. Or maybe thats only a good name for a frog? Think it's a parrot? Shall I post a photo or do what most people would do and google it? Ooh-am I on the wrong Fred? (ooh wot about Fred? or could that be shortened to Ed? )ConfusedHmm

Xylophone is a great great girls name-added bonus that they will be musically gifted too.

user4569734 · 07/06/2018 23:43

You need to call the police and change the locks (husband stormed contacted row). Leave him now.

Cutyourshakehole · 07/06/2018 23:43

@lumarie
You are so younique. But your kids WILL open each others mail with those natchy matchies. It WILL cause arguments. In fact, it’s abusive tbh.

Thesearepearls · 07/06/2018 23:44

WTF is going on?

I am gluten intolerant. You vile bitches with your buns. You don't know what you're doing. If a bun touches my skin I come out in hives. Mind you - none of you can aim straight so i might live through this thread

user4569734 · 07/06/2018 23:44

After

Cutyourshakehole · 07/06/2018 23:45

Someone nearly died of that.

Bookemdannoplease · 07/06/2018 23:46

Just a loada bunts.

Bookemdannoplease · 07/06/2018 23:48

Good buntar! Think I need some kip..... Don't let the bed buns bite... Z@zzzzz

itsBritneyBeach · 07/06/2018 23:49

My DH who's not on mumsnet and has no relevance to the situation, says you should cook buns properly, none of this feminine shite! Oh what is he like GrinBlushGrin time for a large glass of Wine in the bath whilst he watches the Football we might even have sex later! Then I can start a thread about all my SHAGS. he can touch my buns GrinWink

I have made myself cringe massively

LuMarie · 07/06/2018 23:49

@Cutyourshakehole Thank you! Younique, I genuinely like that:)

Here are some flowers for you (picture of flowers)

I wanted Xylophone but my SIL heard me say that and so she named her DPJ (private jet) Xylophonée. She's jealous of me because my wedding cost 500k and I wouldn't change a thing.

Bitch did steal my parking space though.

Bookemdannoplease · 07/06/2018 23:50

I'm on a roll not a bun. Will let you know the outcome of my decision tomoro. Thanks for all yr help. Its been most illuminating. GrinGrin

BlackBeltInChildWrangling · 07/06/2018 23:54

OP, you need to grow (throw?!) a pair (of buns).

Bookemdannoplease · 07/06/2018 23:55

lumarie was goin to bed but didn't want to read and run! As for yr sil she is bu and u should ltb and call yours xylophenilia the first-ha haaaa that'll teach her. Sending you FlowersFlowers cos they woz on bogof

Stoic123 · 08/06/2018 00:20

Everyone’s buns OP? Hmm Frankly, you sound a bit grabby

lisasimpsonssaxophone · 08/06/2018 00:20

Thesearepearls are you really gluten intolerant though? I’ll need to see a doctor’s note signed in triplicate, and a stool sample, and then I’d like you to eat this donut, and if you drop dead immediately then I might believe you but if not then I think you’re just looking for attention tbh.

LuMarie · 08/06/2018 00:24

Just as aside, for more fun read this fred and then catch up on a few others...

I'm full of such CF responses now, I have to keep deleting!

This one though, "Ask the next person a question", if you're laughing now, go over there and join in. I lost it at the following insightful exchange...

"What famous person would play you in a film about your life?"

"The fridge."

Thesearepearls · 08/06/2018 00:38

I’m sorry, this thread is triggering.

I’m going to ask MN to delete it. It’s not like I’m a snowflake millennial- I can cope with really really hard stuff. Like washing dishes.

It’s this flagrant bun-throwing WHEN YOU ALL KNOW I’m gluten-intolerant

LuMarie · 08/06/2018 00:51

I am clutching pearls @Thesearepearls in solidarity, because no one cares about my PARKING SPACE.

I've tried to make this about me and my parking space drama repeatedly even though that is nothing to do with the thread.

My ducks are in a row people. Ducks in a row.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 08/06/2018 00:55

Is that you Phyllis?

beluga425 · 08/06/2018 01:11

Knock twice for yes and once for no...
