It's doing my fucking head in!! All I want is a nice evening reading threads!

All I'm getting is bloody Coronavirus garbage!!

There is a topic for coronavirus, I've hidden it! But almost every fucking thread I go on is a corona virus thread in disguise!

AIBU to just stay away from Mumsnet until it's all over! Or is it just me getting pissed off?

I love Dr Pimple Poppet but would have to draw the line at eyeballs.

Sparklingbrook · 07/03/2020 00:23

The puppy sounds like a seal!

Have none of you heard of sods law? You do know all these hand wringing hypochondriacs will survive and live to see the puppies going down the stairs whilst we'll all be dead? That'll learn usWink

But why would you bother with Gorka when you can have...Joe Varney!!

Never mind that - why would you have Joe Varney when you could have had naughty dreams about....

Think yourself lucky. I’m married to a preppier.

Exactly how preppy is he? Surely he can't possibly be any preppier than this delightful fellow, can he?

Stan!!! Ooomph!

LaurieFairyCake · 07/03/2020 00:57

I have NEVER bought hand sanitiser in my life

I have no idea what it's for. If I touch shit, I get somewhere and wash my hands.

Apparently the average person gets 7-10 colds a year.

I get ONE. Maybe. I'm self employed- I've had 2 days off work in the last ten years. I don't get that sort of illness.

Cheekyfuckerslastnerve · 07/03/2020 00:58

I fancy the coral shorts and white shoe wearing types thanks. Said no woman EVER.

Silvergreen · 07/03/2020 00:59

I'm almost expecting style & beauty to become overrun with face mask fashion. 🙄

Stan!!! Ooomph!

Did that do it for you? Grin

Reg Varney was the very first person in the world to ever use a cash machine, in 1967. So famous AND wealthy!

itsallthedramaMickiloveit · 07/03/2020 01:05

I do love Reg.
I was born in the 90s but my Dad was obsessed with all the old comedy's. So for over a decade I thought the TV only existed for OFAH, on the busses, open all hours.

But Stan will always be number 1!

MadameMeursault · 07/03/2020 01:08

How much loo roll have you got?

TheMaddHugger · 07/03/2020 01:12

💨goes to hide this thread for mentioning the coronavirus ✔Ughhhh.

Laurie “ Apparently the average person gets 7-10 colds a year.”

That’s worrying. I thought it was 3. I’d be well pissed off with that many. I’m an obsessive hand washer though....

managedmis · 07/03/2020 01:40

It's awful isn't it

1forAll74 · 07/03/2020 01:41

I am not stockpiling, and my local co-op has most things that you want.. all except some cat food flavour that my three cats like. Does this mean that cats are now stockpiling too ?

Jennywasafriendofminee · 07/03/2020 02:52

@itsallthedramaMickiloveit Do you know you can say Covid 19 to the same tune as the word Eileen in the song come on Eileen....

I can't believe you have put this into my head, now I'm all...

Covid 19
I swore I'd be clean
But sanitizer
is nowhere to be seen

Ah bog rolls and beans
Scary news on our screens
No sanitizer
Makes us all want to scream

Covid
19
ta loo rah yay
Covid
19
ta loo rah ya

I'm away to look for the thread about the guy who cooked up roadkill for his kids, kittens on stairs isn't cutting it.

Grin cracking up

Thankfully, a thread with a sensible approach to coronavirus bollocks. Grin

Not full of people who have stockpiled enough bog roll to build a massive igloo.

I've been curious about why there seems such a fascination with bog roll too! I have visions of people having filled their houses with so many bog rolls that there is no room to actually live in them.

So they won't be able to self isolate. When asked why they will be forced to admit that they panic bought so many bog rolls (and packets of rice and pasta) that they are now having to live in tents because the house is packed to the rafters.

Comtesse · 07/03/2020 05:07

MN is full of germophobes at the best of times so when there is an ACTUAL germ to worry about the anxiety clearly spikes. Yes i know it’s serious but a sense of proportion would not go amiss.....

TKAAHUARTG · 07/03/2020 05:44

Go to pedants corner. There are no coronavirus threads and they will soon knock that off of shit out of you. Cya.
