To have no time for 'nonsense' anymore

[scoobydoobydoooooh]

People expecting me to travel thousands of miles to attend their destination wedding.

People putting their name on waiting lists for designer handbags that cost thousands of pounds.

Pamper parties for 9 year olds.

Any other grumpy old ladies like to list the modern day nonsense they can live without?

I think this might be the Best Thread Ever

Yes x a zillion to snapchat filters - especially on middle aged (usually) women. Stop it you overgrown arse. Just stop it.

Instagram. Stop that too.

Being offended. Stop it before I give you something to be offended about.

Facebook posts - "I bet 99% of my friends won't share this...". Well you got that right you unreconstructed tool.

People who 'walk' round the supermarket half hung over their trollies. Stand up you fuckwit - or is your back broken?

"You got this" - Say what? What does this even mean?

Jacob Rees Mogg.

Z lister so-called celebrities, constantly in the tabloids. Plastic boobs,Botox, grannies trying to look like their granddaughters. The EU.

Haha! I didn't know what it was supposed to say Lweji! I think the "kicking men in the balls" bit confused me. I had no idea that was a pornographic act.
Must stop doing it.

Sorry, I mean b**lls

I don't know they do and don't censor on here so thought I'd be safe rather than sorry.

I was so shocked at prn that I didn't even notice blls.

Personal attacks and racism (and a few other isms). That's it.
No nonsense here.

People who don't know how the @ works on here. If you put the @ on a shortened version of the person's username, another poster might end up getting the notification email.

Also people who don't know you can opt out of notification emails.

The way people ask for money for everything now. PayPal, Go Fund Me, Monzo links. Awful.

Haha well I'm talking about the weirder side of porn obviously, plus a few girls I'm in a WhatsApp group with seem to suggest a lot of men enjoy being treated violently in bed which surprised me.

I'm tired of being called weak or fragile for talking about my emotions. I'm tired of being told that the abuse I suffered was irrelevant because of what I am. I'm tired of pretending that's hate isn't hate because it's directed at the right people. Fuck all of that.

Putting a random name when you're sarcastically complaining about a stranger's behaviour e.g. calm down Sharon

People who insist on entering shops when others are clearly wanting to exit. It's easier to let them out first. You won't die if you have to wait two seconds.

People who think getting up stupidly early makes them superior even though they can't function after 9pm.

loopytiles
'People wanting to arrange ordinary social things like going to the pub or lunch months in advance!'
^^
Yep definitely this! We have family friends that we have to book in for a meet up literally months in advance. They only live about 30mins away.....it drives me mad! Maybe it's just with us though as they did cancel last minute once because they had to clean out a cupboard

I'm generally fairly different strokes, different folks. That being said, if Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, et al disappeared tomorrow I'd throw a party.

Spending a few hundred on a handbag can be worth it. I spent £250 on mine ten years ago and I've been using it every day since. I understand that it's not always feasible to do this, though.

Those smug, high achieving bastards with their top jobs, member of the board for blah blah charity, marathon running, pta stalwart etc etc. Lie the fuck down. Have they never had their day ruined by wasting it on mumsnet?

Agree with competitive busy-ness. These people live an unexamined life, and never stop to look at anything, let alone read. What is this virtue in being "busy" ? It's such a modern put-down, too, implying that the other person is an unoccupied waster.

Harking back to beginning of thread and the hatred for the term "reach out", I was watching News last night and the number of people who were using the term (as in "Theresa May must reach out to the British people..." was laughable. I remembered that meme of if you're not in the Four Tops, the phrase is not for you!

Competitive business gets right on my tits. It's not a sin to enjoy yourself!

People who say they are food “prepping like a boss” by putting a few pieces of chicken and broccoli into a couple of Tupperware boxes.
People (usually women) “prep” 3 meals a day 365 days a year for their families and have done since time began. THIS is “prepping like a boss” if you want a stupid term for it.

People who are too special for the ordinary life most of us inhabit. We go shopping, they 'source', we play with our kids they 'make memories' we have plans they have 'goals' we are decent people they are 'living their best life'

loads of sex scenes in film and tv where the woman is bored or having a terrible time while the man barely notices

the #myworld nonsense

no cappucino ever being hot enough at a coffee shop unless you ask for it as hot as they can get it and then they tell you it will burn the milk (it never tastes any different to me even if I boil the bloody milk)

I've noticed a new phrase lately

"living your best life"

Wanky bollocks in the extreme

I’m sure we’ve already had it but detoxing and anyone who believes in that shit.
Your body is perfectly fucking capable of detoxing otherwise you’d be dead. Nothing you stick on the soles of your feet will suck it out. It’s a con and I resent your act of superiority when I tell you I’m not doing any of that shit.

#making memories

THAT'S NOT HOW MEMORY WORKS YOU CRETIN
