Aibu saying people on mn are batshit crazy. The world is gonna implode after britexit. Porn makes men rubbish at sex. If you make a comment disagreeing with an op post when you are in the minority you are a troll. Has everyone lost their common sense? Why does everything have to be do extreame ?

Because it’s the internet and everyone feels safe to let out their inner drama queen.

liz70 · 31/07/2018 12:12

YABVVU and entitled. Troll off. Reported.

TheQueef · 31/07/2018 12:12

We live life on the edge.

Mumsnet is hardcore.

Childrenofthesun · 31/07/2018 12:13

YABU. Both the things you've mentioned are valid concerns.

Berniethecrabisthebest · 31/07/2018 12:13

Why is this reported sorry ?

Aibu saying people on mn are batshit crazy

Yes. It isn’t a homogeneous mass.

liz70 · 31/07/2018 12:15

"Why is this reported sorry ?"

It isn't. I was taking the piss out of the things mentioned in your OP. #online humour fail

You don't have to be crazy to post here, but it helps.

IceCreamFace · 31/07/2018 12:16

YABU. Brexit has the potential to be a massive disaster if you listen to anyone with any expertise you would know this. Lots of people on mumsnet (including me) are fine with partner's watching porn. Others aren't - maybe they're partner's have had a problem with porn and it has made them shit in bed. I don't see the problem.

liz70 oh sorry Grin

I think you are being really inappropriate - don't know what that is meant to mean here, but it's what everyone says.

geekone · 31/07/2018 13:31

@Liz70 I got it Grin

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 31/07/2018 13:34

Yanbu.

I still love it though.

CharltonLido73 · 31/07/2018 13:56

Why is everything "batshit" on MN? Why do people talk in clichés on here?

akkakk · 31/07/2018 13:59

Because posters on Mumsnet fall into one of two categories:

  • minority: genuine people there to help each other and use it as a means of sharing ideas etc.
  • majority: people who feel somehow bigger by having this persona online where everything they say is authoritative, and where they are always right - you will notice from their wording that it is always absolutes - they extrapolate their small insignificant experience into patterns that define the world

ignore the second group and there is a decent bunch in the first - humorous / intelligent / lovely people

Lethaldrizzle · 31/07/2018 14:02

Bat shit crazy is offensive to bats Wink

Stirner · 31/07/2018 14:04

I'm not sure about "bat shit crazy" but the hypocrisy and double standards on here are astounding.

SavannahSky · 31/07/2018 14:04

I agree op!

Leesa65 · 31/07/2018 14:05

What Akkakk said

liz70 · 31/07/2018 14:58

"Bat shit crazy is offensive to bats"

True. Very chiropterist if you ask me.

Oysterbabe · 31/07/2018 15:06

Porn did make my ex rubbish at sex though.

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 31/07/2018 15:12

There are some batshit posters I agree. But on the whole I think it's fairly balanced.

Seasawride · 31/07/2018 15:15

Welcome to mumsnet

EuphoricNight · 31/07/2018 15:17

It's the internet in general op.
If you think MN is batshit you clearly haven't seen any other sites full of really batshit people.
MN is tame in comparison.
