I love those threads but they seem to never come up now or I miss them

You know the fake AIBU where it's a fictional character the OP pretends to be

Can we have one? Can I try and guess your fake aibu's for who you are?

@minisoksmakehardwork it sounds really hard leaving everything but perhaps you'll enjoy the city. Are you hoping to find work there? How are your family taking it?

bit early for the bloody tax office needs us to come and sort out our payments for next year, but I am 9 months pregnant and not so d h has forgotten to book accomodation. perhaps he is grumpy as someone told him the baby is not his

hlob · 30/11/2018 21:32

@BlackeyedGruesome well I can understand your DH being a bit pissed off if you did cheat on him with a deity... in all fairness

Ooooohhhh. 😁

I know I am not AIBU, but wanted a feedback from different perspectives because DH says I am BU.
2 of my toes fallen of while watching Hollyoaks and he wants me to go to A n E. I feel fine. Just picked up my toes and put them in a freezer because that preserves them so my DM can reattach them tomorrow with hemp thread (my fav antivaxx site has first aid info. Proper, not like what doctors try to tell you so you hurt more and they get more money for treatments). DH is freaking out, screaming at me that I am crazy, but buzzfeed test I've done said I am not. Why can't he understand I am fine? Should I ltb?

minisoksmakehardwork · 30/11/2018 21:39

@hlob. My family are pushing the move at the moment. My friends don't understand as I'm the oldest of the group, but you know how it is. As you get older you have responsibilities.

I'm sure The City will afford me many opportunities I wouldn't have here. Education, a job. Maybe a family of my own one day. I worry a little about leaving my friends behind. But they'll still be there. Won't they...?

Petalflowers · 30/11/2018 21:39

AIBU Gone camping with some friends, but they forgot to supply tents, food etc and want us to do challenges.

Plus he won’t get much sleep with all hrndoom visitors I understand areontheir way to see your DC when it born. At least your MIL is not insisting she ought to be present at the actual birth. Have you booked a sympathetic midwife who is in agreement with an epidural?

minisoksmakehardwork · 30/11/2018 21:44

@BlackeyedGruesome, I'm sure all will be forgiven when people learn of the birth of the baby. By some at least. I hear one of those prefects has been in the job a bit too long and is a bit of a bigot. Heaven forbid your beliefs aren't the same as theirs.

hlob · 30/11/2018 21:44

@OftenHangry ring 101 just to be sure and log it

@minisoksmakehardwork if you live in a soap opera then yes they will always be there. They may never phone you or visit. But you can walk right back in in a few years time and all will be as it always was

OP posts:
Ngaio2 · 30/11/2018 21:46

That should be random visitors

hlob · 30/11/2018 21:47

@Petalflowers well that sucks, are you meant to eat bugs? 💐

Ngaio2 · 30/11/2018 21:48

@blackeyedgruesome. Any preference re baby’s gender?

Ngaio2 · 30/11/2018 21:52

@oftenhangry whatever you do will be quite reasonable as long as you don’t call an ambulance. Think of how a call out costs the NHS and how many suffering ingrown toenails outdoor need to wait another 5 hours I agony

minisoksmakehardwork · 30/11/2018 21:53

When I'm older I might take a trip back with the family. I'm sure the city slog will lead us to need a much deserved break. I just hope I can get back with them.

If not maybe one of my old friends will pop up for a visit. They might be lonely. It's pretty tough having not having the same capacity of mind as others.

OftenHangry · 30/11/2018 21:56

@hlob oh I would never!
I haven't even called 999 when there was an armed gang of squirrels robbing our tv and all the furniture. I wouldn't want to be a burden to underfunded police. They did have guns but I held onto my bathrobe and stayed upstairs so all is good.

OftenHangry · 30/11/2018 21:58

@Ngaio2 I wouldn't call ambulance. Ever. They are all on it. Just make us think we are ill so they can pocket money. Third toe fell off. Dh is screaming. Still don't think IABU. Should I just pack my stuff and leave? He is really hurting my feelings with all the "You are crazy! Go to a doctor!" thing. So controlling.

hlob · 30/11/2018 21:59

AIBU to think that making a hedgehog curl into a ball, spin and fight for the entertainment of children is actually animal cruelty and the RSPCA should get involved?

OP posts:
OftenHangry · 30/11/2018 22:01

@hlob are you new to MN? 🙄
They are just having a bit of fun.

hlob · 30/11/2018 22:02

@OftenHangry not new actually. But really? They get bloody squirrels involved too. What kind of message are we teaching our children?

OP posts:
Sunflowersforever · 30/11/2018 22:06

I've never seen a reverse in MN Confused Feel like Ive culturally missed out

OftenHangry · 30/11/2018 22:09

@hlob you are just no joy, are you. Must be fun living with you. It's teaching children that fighting for your life is ok and blood isn't anything to be afraid of. Obvs 🙄
End of

hlob · 30/11/2018 22:13

@OftenHangry they draw blood??? Why isn't the RSPCA all over this?!

And you seem to have a fetish for blood what with your two toes hanging off 😅

Feefeetrixabelle · 30/11/2018 22:15

Aibu for taking my role as my villages nanny and protector of children by murdering anyone who don’t in my opinion deserve to live? It’s not like I’m the first mass murderer round here and I’m definitely the most honourable one

hlob · 30/11/2018 22:16

@Feefeetrixabelle well what are they doing that makes you think they don't deserve to live? I need more details before I could possibly comment on that
