Or am I just being a miserable, grouchy bitch?

OMG!! If only things like this were optional, not compulsory.

Fuckyoumenopause · 04/04/2020 21:47

I'm quite new to mumsnet and I'm so glad I've found my tribe of fellow grouches. I'm keeping you lot Grin

In fact let's organise a clap of appreciation and celebrate our grouchiness! No....?

@Fuckyoumenopause.. I’m in if there’s whooping too?

Ethelfleda · 04/04/2020 21:52

Sunshinesky thank you for perfectly articulating exactly how I feel.
Fuck.
I’m even more of an introvert than I was before... just, how?

@ofwarren I'm gonna try and remember to take the bloody thing off next time! 🙈

I went to the early hours at Tesco 2 weeks ago and they clapped there and gave us flowers. It's getting silly!

Fuckyoumenopause · 04/04/2020 21:55

@mascotte Whooping, whistles, foghorns, glowsticks and a bit of gangnam style thrown in for good measure!

😂 I would be mortified @Greggers2017

Highonpotandused · 04/04/2020 22:00

Very chavvy song choice.

Highonpotandused · 04/04/2020 22:00

(S Club 7 that is)

AllTheseThingsThatIHaveNotDone · 04/04/2020 22:17

The very most I will contemplate is watching Gio and Georgia do their quickstep. The Strictly singers mangle it mind.
That said, at the beginning of the routine Gio is doing the chin up, cheer up, musn't grumble, SMILE bollocks that would lead most to smack him in the chops or snarl rather than quickstepping.
On top of that I have still not forgotten JoSClub for being a mean girl in the BB house.
Dancing on the doorstep would be full-on cringe where I am. It's probably bad enough I subject them to Strictly full blast each Autumn.
Song choice sucks...Now if it was Here comes the Hotstepper, I might reconsider Wink

@AdaStarkadder
We can have an alternative Metal As Fuck Lock All Your Doors And Turn Everything Up To 11 session that lasts from now to whenever normal service is resumed Grin

That's an excellent idea! Grin

sohypnotic · 05/04/2020 13:33

Referring to S Club 7 as music is offensive.

I could get behind the Rammstein idea though, with some Till Lindemanne style pounding of the thighs with own fists as "dance moves"

Bee128 · 05/04/2020 13:45

I’m quite happy for others to do it and I could watch from
My window but no chance or me being out dancing in front of the neighbours I barely know 🤣🤣

RabbityMcRabbit · 06/04/2020 11:14

I've found my people here @SapphireSeptember-Metal rules!Grin

MulticolourMophead · 06/04/2020 11:23

Another one who'd get behind the push for Rammstein, along with DS. Grin

And Till Lindemann has apparently tested negative for COVID 19, but is improving. Good.

SapphireSeptember · 06/04/2020 17:09

Metalheads of Mumsnet, unite! 🤘🏻 We will raise our Devil horns to the sky while blasting some Rammstein (or whatever you prefer.) Grin

Yay, I'm glad he's getting better, I was very worried for Mr Lindermann for a while. Smile

Ruby Commey steals every scene. She epitomises strahlend.

I wish MN had a like button. I’ve never felt better about being a grumpy grouchy old bitch.

Or about my taste in music for that matter.

May have to take a CD player into work on Sunday to join in the metal moment...

RealBecca · 06/04/2020 19:44

Just another sad twat wanting to go viral on Facebook.

AdaStarkadder · 06/04/2020 20:13

Brutal! Keep the faith, metal sisters ... Grin

SapphireSeptember · 06/04/2020 23:35

@AllTheseThingsThatIHaveNotDone Yay, thank you for those! Sonne makes me feel really emotional for some reason, it has even made me cry once or twice. I also agree about Ruby Commey, she's amazing.

@AdaStarkadder And the same to you my friend. 🤘🏻
