I’ve committed a MN crime (actually 3 or 4)

[EltonHoratio]

I’ve just stumbled across a MN crime I wasn’t aware of. I’ve recently name changed but have been active on the site for a couple of years.

I’ve “stalked” someone on Facebook! To put into context I have had a look at someone’s FB profile, well the bits they choose to be public. I haven’t camped outside her house and bombarded her with texts, emails, phone calls or any other of the truly horrifying acts of stalking. Before I get shot, real stalking is horrible, I do not condone it in any way.

Does anyone else check people out on facebook or am I a truly bad person for doing so?

Other MN crimes I’m guilty of include occasionally arguing with my husband, not spending every penny of my earnings on my step children and not thinking teachers are all that hard done by. AIBU? Anyone else guilty of MN crimes?

I can’t be the only one??

I don’t think looking at someone’s profile counts as stalking tbh.

No I didn’t either, but appears some do.

What? We all do that. It's not a MN crime. You may proceed with your nosing - just don't accidentally like anything... 🙈

I'm a disgusting fatty 🤷‍♀️

'Stalking' is repeatedly looking, making false account to befriend, getting friends to filter back information etc.

Having a look isn't stalking.

Everybody does this I think, particularly ex,s it's just curiosity .

My children are having frankfurter hot dogs for lunch and I have no fucks to give

The Disney one?

I’m pretty sure one of the main reasons Facebook exists is to cyberstalk people. I’m always looking up Exes or old classmates, people I once worked with. It’s totally normal.

I have a toilet brush. I also call it a toilet brush not a loo brush.

We also take our shoes off in the house and I leave my laundry out all night.

I have an upstairs and a downstairs toilet, and I have a toilet brush in both of them. Shoot me now!

Nothing wrong with looking at someone else’s Facebook profile. That’s what they’re there for.

I also argue with my husband, have no step-children to spend any money on and I am a teacher. I tend to go with: unless you’re in the profession, don’t even try to understand what it’s like. I’m not a nurse in the NHS so I don’t claim they’re not that hard done by. I know they’re working really hard and I respect them for that.

Have you ever seen that Catfish program? There are some real crazies out there.

If you are doing that sort of thing, you need to stop.

Lol, is that really what you took from that thread? Goodness. It's not quite what people were saying is it?
This just goes to show that whenever you read an op, there's often another side to it.

@arethereanyleftatall no that’s not all I took from the thread! How very narrow minded.

Oh, I didn’t realize this was a TAAT.

It’s not a TAAT it’s a total different subject. *sigh

I brushed my child's teeth after cereal. Got shot down for that particular piece of horror.

Maybe the people who said that on the thread are a bit dim? Doesn’t mean MN is one homogeneous place with set rules

I also have a loo brush, do not reverse park, eat ready meals, and couldn't care less about animals shitting in my garden.

@BlackCatSleeping you know one poster who left her washing out at night got Bat Darked doncha? Is that what you want? Cos that's what'll happen.

And yes sometimes I have a look at people's facebook profiles. I thought that's what they were there for - for people to look at?

Yes,i’ve Looked at people’s Facebook., left washing out overnight, and have a toilet brush.

Haven’t succeeded in making a chicken last 2.4 meals though.

If people don't want to be stalked they should lock the profile down. No can see anything on my page unless they are friends.

I sometimes leave washing out all night. The last time I did it, DD1 (who is now also a MNer) warned me about spider willies
