Tbf people are allowed to roll their eyes at posts like the above. I do it, a lot of people do. As long as you don’t mention it.

‘Are these mum boots?’

I’m curious about this being a mum and occasional wearer of boots.

Some boots are duly derided and others are not. But one thing strikes me every single time..they all look incredibly similar. So I’ve never really understood the question or the replies Confused

Needtogetmyselftogether · 07/11/2019 10:32

Yeah and I do too sometimes but to be so prim about it is cringe worthy

Any threads about how your partner’s ex has a problem with you just because she’s a jealous psycho ex. When in reality you’ve been together 3 months, moved him and his 3 kids in with you and your 2 kids into a 2 bedroom house and all the kids are bashing the heads off each other, you’re pregnant with his next child and he’s cut his child support to his ex to support you and your DC. Hmm

Has anyone gotten bupropion prescribed for depression. NO! You will never get a yes because it isn't FUCKING LICENCED. and breathe.

I have to say, this has to be an extremely niche one! Grin Ive never come across this thread title before!

Yes, have to say have never understood this either!

x2boys · 07/11/2019 10:54

I don't find the am I pregnant threads as annoying as those that ask which test.did you use to get a positive ,if your pregnant your pregnant no amount of money or different brands is going to make you any more or less pregnant

FadingStar · 07/11/2019 11:24

What Erishkigal said.

And also, trans women are not female, however many capital letters you shout it in. They are biological males who (for varying reasons) prefer to present in stereotypically feminine ways. Stop being so ashamed of it and encourage men to accept a wider range of "men-ness".

100% this. What they're doing is not kind. Not kind to women, children or the men they think they are helping.

I am the other woman (fuck off)
Can you see a line (no)
Find me a bag for £500 budget (again, fuck off)
Screen time rules
Is this packed lunch full of vegetables and quinoa too sugary (FUCK OFF!)

My DC scored 160 on an IQ test. Is this good or bad?

And, yes, all the demonising MILs ones. I find those very dispiriting - and I'm not even a MIL.

fairgame84 · 07/11/2019 11:39

Who is the father of my baby threads.
Totally pointless there is no way anybody can know when you shagged 2 blokes in 2 days.

CruCru · 07/11/2019 12:45

I can’t stand the threads that say “I’m incredibly unhappy with my boyfriend. However, he isn’t abusive, just awful for XYZ ways. Am I allowed to break up with him?”

Yes! You are allowed to break up with your boyfriend for any reason you like.

cockcrowfarm · 07/11/2019 12:49

Child free wedding/ lunch/ whatever. Many adults want a child free night, you are invited and your children aren’t. Get a baby sitter or don’t go, simple.

BuzzShitbagBobbly · 07/11/2019 13:23

Anything with "RG" when related to universities.

Such massive and overt snobbery about them.

x2boys · 07/11/2019 15:01

Yeah and the fake ignorance about Sat results too ,my dd has scored 120 etc on all her sat,s is this good or bad Hmm

x2boys · 07/11/2019 15:04

flopsy, OutwiththeOutcrowd, Fairgame - marvellous posts!

"Trigger Warning - TMI - health related - pictures
My minge has swollen up on one side and seems to be turning itself inside out causing the delicate inner membranes to have turned into red sandpaper. Have a look at this and tell me if it's normal and if you have had a similar problem..."

I am a 34FF

I'm 5'1" with a bra size of 34FF; where can I find a well engineered bra that doesn't make me look top heavy?

Alicewond · 08/11/2019 04:54

“Names to go with .....” Because god forbid siblings names might not match 😂

thatmustbenigelwiththebrie · 08/11/2019 04:56

Anything about cyclists. I just can't read them as they are so full of vitriol and sweeping generalisations.

coconuttelegraph · 08/11/2019 08:19

All opening posts that contain the words "just for fun" and/or "I'm curious"

HotCrossPun1 · 08/11/2019 08:19

thatmustbenigelwithebrie I agree completely, they’re always awful.

x2boys · 08/11/2019 08:19

The names that go with , siblings thing I always assume it's the type of names so if you have an Elizabeth and a Katherine you probably wouldnt,call.your next daughter Lexie-Mae ,@Alicewond?

ooooohbetty · 08/11/2019 08:21

@flopsytheflatcat yes, yes, yes
