Another popoular instamum (NSSN) saying under that post that SM is doing life changing stuff while we're sat on our arses doing fuck all

AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

of course we are because we too have the staff/family/endless troop of hangers on to offload the kiddiwinks onto so we can devote our time to bringing the sisterhood down, eh?

De-fucking-lusional

In all honesty I found mumsnet through Instagram... I’d had an account years ago and not been that much of a user. Refund it through Instagram and now use both.

The idea of them all wearing SMUG jumpers so they can ‘own’ MN is filling me with mirth

AtHomeInFrance · 02/10/2018 15:25

Really. MOD is calling out Mumsnet and yet she refuses to engage with any criticism of her sharenting activities!

SpiritLeveller · 02/10/2018 15:35

Oh please let SMUG jumpers happen Grin

wannabestressfree · 02/10/2018 15:42

I commented on the insta and agree with @glagdy. I feel quite protective about mumsnet and the way it's dismissed out of hand as having no purpose...... I was raging this morning.

@wannabestressfree yes, when what really is the ‘point’ of most accounts on Instagram? How is one more valid than the other? And in fact the point of most of them is to make money and flog something, whether that’s for their own product or they’ve been paid. People here on the whole don’t have an ulterior motive.

Mightymousie · 02/10/2018 15:55

An account was swiftly unfollowed by me this morning for a paid ad with Aptimal formula. That was a step too far for me. Follow on milk does nothing but line the pockets of milk companies. Just get off my feed.

Mightymousie · 02/10/2018 15:57

In fact why doesn’t Instagram charge them? Like eBay? How come it’s free to use for those making thousands of £ out of it?

finks100 · 02/10/2018 15:57

Just bought a job lot of ‘fruit of the loom’ sweaters.
Going to print them up with mumsnet slogans.
Will start with MumSnetter...looking for other ideas. Obviously I won’t be launching and Insta page because there is no crossover in usage, thinking of asking Primark to launch them!

MrBull · 02/10/2018 15:58

"Mediocrity will always be threatened by greatness." little pearl of (such humble) wisdom shared by Hirons on that post. Let's remind ourselves it's a post about someone complaining that a few people don't like her jumpers.

Glad to say my business idea isn’t threatened I am really aiming at mediocrity!

EeebyMum · 02/10/2018 16:07

@fink100 I want one with VIPER plz

CH jumps on any chance to witch about MN.

MrBull · 02/10/2018 16:09

@finks100

From that post alone you have great inspiration (these have all been said on that one post alone)

HATER
BITTER
TIME FOR FORUMS
SAD OLD MARE
CUNTY MUM

And my personal fave for my fellow sweatshirt forum users,

TEAM SWEATSHIRT

But remember, #bekind #womenempoweringwomen

SpiritLeveller · 02/10/2018 16:10

I want a VIPER one too. Feel like it should be black with gold writing.

You seriously want people to start paying to use social media? Where does that line stop, then?
Your bitterness is showing in that comment.

ShirleyPhallus · 02/10/2018 16:11

Can anyone explain who SN and NSSN are please?

Please?

SpiritLeveller · 02/10/2018 16:11

How about?

It's not free to use. We pay with our privacy and our eyeballs.

Newtothevillage · 02/10/2018 16:13

Ooh if we're going to do Jumpers can i suggest:
Pom Bear
Sharon
T-Rexing
Penis Beaker
Angela Hernandez

I am so on board with this idea!

finks100 · 02/10/2018 16:14

Great suggestions!
I think Bitter is winning, now should I add the hashtag too...
#bitter #viper #jealous #hater
That’s autumn/winter 2018 sorted!!!
