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 ?

Other parenting sites are available

You get all sorts on here really. But I do think the nasty, spiteful posters and the ones always looking to take offence have driven away a lot of the interesting, witty, imaginative and clever posters. It used to be more fun on here.

bonfireheart · 31/07/2018 16:27

Of all the things on MN, I finding posters starting threads about M&S the oddest - some posters are obsessed with what is just a shop selling clothes that you can easily ignore.

SlartiAardvark · 31/07/2018 16:27

The empty-headed don't have a care in the world.

And don't usually contribute much to a thread apart from trite memes.....

Wink

I get along by assuming that 90% of people on here are lying "Billy 2 Shits" who come on to massage their own egos or because they're honestly too stupid to work things out in their head & have to ask someone....

9% are here to visit the Zoo & knock on the glass to wind the denizens up (that's me!!).

And the last 1% are valuable and wise contributors, treasure them if you can find them!!

Singlenotsingle · 31/07/2018 16:35

Well a lot of us are new on here. No good saying how it used to be. Atlast let's hear some of this witty, clever stuff from you then?
Actually, I read MN because a lot of the threads are very funny.

Atlastatlastatlast · 31/07/2018 17:24

Why so confrontational single? I've been on here for years and I've just noticed a change in recent times, that's all.

ShirleyPhallus · 31/07/2018 17:33

People just play up to get attention don’t they

When 98% of posts get totally ignored it’s a bit more fun to post something confrontational and get a reaction

Oysterbabe · 31/07/2018 18:14

Rectal haven? You mean center parcs?

Berniethecrabisthebest · 31/07/2018 18:21

oysterbabe mn did teach me this about centre parks 😂

There are some odd people here but that’s what makes it so funny.

Atlastatlastatlast · 31/07/2018 21:19

We need Hullygully back and laqueen and arabesque and posters like that.

Berniethecrabisthebest · 01/08/2018 09:36

notumbongo yes I agree there funny I read most threads for a laugh. I directed my mum to the preppers threads because I knew she would find them amusing while also.thinkin wtf

Hi @Berniethecrabisthebest . Regular on the Prepper topic which has been going for a good long while now.
Happy for anyone to ask anything on my recently revived AMA.
I find all kinds of stuff on MN amusing and ridiculous too.

Pengggwn · 01/08/2018 09:46

I'm batshit. Not just on MN.

Sunflowersforever · 01/08/2018 13:04

It can vary so much on here. Sometimes I've been challenged and changed my mind, so can be useful.

Would agree that there are some nasty gits sometimes, just here for the hate. But, that's like everywhere....

Berniethecrabisthebest · 01/08/2018 13:24

I do worry some posters survive in the real world

ThreadKillerMary · 01/08/2018 13:25

Did anyone say "you sound unhinged" yet?

LeahJack · 01/08/2018 14:03

Because MN (like many other places) moderates and encourages members to stick to a broadly left wing liberal ethos in the hope that posters will believe that these are not only normal, popular, common and mainstream views, but that they will also believe that they are the correct ones to have which provide social cachet and try to emulate them. HTH.

BIWI · 01/08/2018 15:18

@LeahJack have you been on MN for very long? This is not a moderated site. Never mind having an agreed ethos.
