AIBU? Neighbours demanding money for McDonald’s

[Radishey]

We live in quite a small but nice street, mainly detached with decent sized gardens. We have a whatsapp group that the whole street is on, barring one family LOL. But we won’t talk about them.

Anyway, DH is the one who reads the group most often and has now got into a massive fight with the neighbours over a group-buy of McDonalds food next week.

Why is the size of your house relevant, nobody gives a fuck if you live in buck house or balmoral luvvie but I wouldn't mind a MaccieDs right now

I last had a Wimpy in Taunton about 10 years ago. They still did Lime Milkshakes, and I had a Brown Derby

There’s a Wimpy not too far away from somewhere we go quite often and we always go there. They still do lime milkshakes and Brown Derbys, although they’ve swapped the nuts for mini fudge (I think) pieces. Ooh, and you can buy bottles of their ketchup and burger sauce now. I bloody love a Wimpy.

There is a wimpy in suffolk.

@TitianaTitsling I'm up for that. I'm not sure Id still fit in the uniform now but Im willing to give it a try!

I have no garden at all, I might have to make do with a Subway“

Dont understand Subway. Hugely overpriced sandwiches, all bread and minuscule fillings, unless you like loads of iceberg to bulk it out, for at least 5 times the cost you could do them at home( aware that I’m channelling Meera Syal who could make it at home with an aubergine. Though not now, obviously).

They’re very bready sandwiches?

I did wonder if the OP was going to Maui on her honeymoon.
Or alternatively whether it was a McDonalds stealth advert which backfired as everyone apparently prefers Wimpy. But Maui is looking more likely

@SillyCow6 to the same tune "A naice naice house
A naice naice house
We live in a vairy vairy
naice naice house

It's semi-
deeeetaaached
And we have a big garden
And we're not renters...."

I am afraid I might shock you now, because I am a renter

So now PBP also stands for Pretend Burger Palava.

I think Wimpys are mainly in Somerset and Devon these days.

Am I the only one childish enough to have sniggered at the post mentioning an orgy to be followed by one where someone 'only has a semi'

Anyone in Portsmouth, Wimpy Southsea is now delivering 🙌

Oh no silly am going to have to rethink my planned WhatsApp invite!

That Wimpy is beyond gross. Stinks like piss when you walk in there and it's so over priced

Why is noone (including MNHQ) asking the right questions, Does the OP have pampas grass in their decent sized garden and is that why one family don't talk on the whats app group?

Fucksake. Now I just want a cheeseburger and fries.

Strawberry bloody milkshake....! I dont even care that they always taste like banana every other suck.....

This thread has messed with my mind....

@LouMumsnet did you at least ask her for a comment on the way out of the (very expensive) door

I’m thinking of turning this into a book, I need some inspiration though as to what the one set of excluded neighbours did to offend. In my mind I’m thinking they ate Burger King....

@Thepigeonsarecoming the thought was they were 'renters'...(shudder.......!)

How do you know it’s a PBP is my question?

@Taddda oh my gosh, it’s more horrendous than I thought!!! (Changes book classification to a horror novel)

@Dullardmullard IP address or email account I would think

But were they all shouting BALLSACK while ordering McDonalds.

And anyway, I thought there was a Mumsnet rule about diagrams when discussing neighbors especially if the houses are on a cul de sac and detached.

Not aimed at you @SofiaAmes just my favourite diagram of all time

@Thepigsarecoming with MN track record I don’t think so. I think it’s trotted out as an easy excuse.

@Thepigeonsarecoming that was too sorry

*@Thepigeonsarecoming no offense taken....I would post it on my NextDoor.com neighborhood website as many could use that advice, but C** is a banned word in the USA.
