My last thread was deleted because I was not being "civil" enough, I don't actually think it is a subject there is much room for civility in, but I will try!

My last post was to try and answer some questions about me. Here they are

I think I have answered these.

No I am not a strict vegetarian. I don't buy milk or dairy, but eat it in other peoples houses,

no I don't fly,

foodmiles, well, I take them into consideration, but they are not the only indicator of the environmental impact of food. Tomatoes grown in a heated greenhouse 2 miles away might have more environmental impact than tomatoes grown outside in Spain, and flown in.

I have 2 adopted children, 1 is an adult no longer living at home I currently have 3 foster children, but that is likely to change this week

Yes I have a pet, it came with one of the adopted children.

No I don't smoke

@Kelcat9494

Oh is this the same poster from yesterday talking about wanting clean air for her dog and kids? I commented saying I don't care about her dogs or children and I still stand by it now Grin
no, this is not the same poster talking about dog and kids, you have got me confused with someone else

I am here, on and off, in between bouts of housework

Housework, that’s another task to fit into the 8 hours a day you have free. So that’s eating, sleeping, shopping, errands, showering, caring for children, caring for pets, walking 10 miles and, judging by today, pissing about on MN for hours. All magically fitting into 8 free hours per day.

What’s the secret OP? Do you have a time turner? You’ve been suspiciously silent in response to all the questions asking how you are actually fitting everything in but I would love some tips.

Haha @mosquitofeast STOP gaslighting people!!

If someone says they remember you posting something, and add a SCREENSHOT of it....!

I mean...seriously?

mosquitofeast · 28/07/2020 18:43

@OlympicProcrastinator

On your other thread OP you were a disabled blue badge holder and a foster career. But now you leave your adopted and fostered kids and walk 5 miles to another job?

Righty ho 👍

no, You have got me confused with someone else

LastRoloIsMine · 28/07/2020 18:44

WHAT ABOUT 5HE SCREENSHOT!

OlympicProcrastinator · 28/07/2020 18:44

They give blue badges to people who can walk ten miles these days then?

Because you were a disabled blue badge holder on your other thread.

Mydogisthebestest · 28/07/2020 18:46

How do you work 16 hours a day, work on a project for slave children, walk to and from work, do your house, eat, sleep and shit AND be a foster carer/adoptive parent to five kids?

mosquitofeast · 28/07/2020 18:46

@Indecisivelurcher

Air pollution is a attributed to 40,000 premature deaths a year in the UK. Many of our designated wildlife sites are 100x over their critical loads for air pollutants.
Exactly. But people think their personal comfort and convenience is more important. Or they convince themselves they are too busy to walk,. Some people need to drive, some people don't but the culture we are in says thats ok, drive as much as you like. There are consequences though, for everyone

Yesterday I watched my five year old drop and egg on the kitchen floor, despite me watching it happened he denied denied denied.

Literally what the OP is doing.

@LastRoloIsMine

mosquitofeast

A number of us recognise you from yesterday's thread and are wondering why you posted about different numbers of children and how now they are fostered but yesterday they were contraception fsilures? Oh and how's your dog?

I never mentioned a dog? You have got be confused with somebody else
OP posts:
LastRoloIsMine · 28/07/2020 18:48

Nobody cares about driving OP.
We are all just waiting for you to explain away the screen shot Grin

DeltaFlyer · 28/07/2020 18:49

Didn't the dog have asthma too?

mosquitofeast · 28/07/2020 18:50

@JuanNil

Yes, it was OP that said she had the contraceptive failure. A PP said : "If the OP was worried about pollution she/he wouldn't have had five children"

And her response was "Contraception failure. Not that it's any of your business Mr/s Snoopy"

Included complete with typo.

no, and it doesn't matter how many times people say this. I never said I had any contraception failure. I never said I had nay birth children. I never said anything about asthma or a dog, and I never called anyone Mr/s Snoopy.

You have got me confused with someone else.

@GinDaddyRedux

No, no -

You keep gaslighting people @mosquitofeast telling them what they must have got "confused" by.

I was on the board and read the same thing.

you didn't read it written by me, because I didn't say it.

No, you may not, you have absolutely no idea why people may need to use their cars

LastRoloIsMine · 28/07/2020 18:51

Screen shot from your thread yesterday.

mosquitofeast · 28/07/2020 18:52

@DeltaFlyer

In your other thread you claim to work on a project about getting children freed from slavery into education. 2nd job? Hmm
No, part of my main job, and I also foster freed slaves too
OP posts:
Mydogisthebestest · 28/07/2020 18:52

I’ll try again.

How do you work 16 hours a day, work on a project for slave children, walk to and from work, do your house, eat, sleep and shit AND be a foster carer/adoptive parent to five kids?

rhowton · 28/07/2020 18:54

Mind your own business! 🙄

mosquitofeast · 28/07/2020 18:54

@Mydogisthebestest

You didn’t answer me about hypothetically using my car instead of public transport to reduce the risk to others as I can’t wear a mask.
I didn't realise you wanted an answer, you are not the people I am talking to, as I said, some people drive for safety reasons. That is not the same as driving for no reason.
OP posts:
OlympicProcrastinator · 28/07/2020 18:54

no, You have got me confused with someone else

No I absolutely haven’t. The only person who is confused about what bullshit you have spouted on your various sanctimonious threads is you. Liars always fuck up because they can’t remember what they’ve said.

ClickandForget · 28/07/2020 18:54

I also saw that thread and you did indeed say contraception failure and you said the pollution was unfair on your dog

I saw that too. I have OP highlighted as well.
First time I've posted in this thread though. I don't know why people are engaging. It's better to ignore.

LastRoloIsMine · 28/07/2020 18:54

Thanks for the laughs OP.

MN you need to remove this thread the OP is ridiculous.

mosquitofeast · 28/07/2020 18:55

@JuanNil

So tell me... was this not your thread?

*AIBU

To ask drivers not to

drive between the hours of 8am and 8pm as your stinking petrol fumes badly affect my small children's and dog's lungs. Thank you in advance for your consideration.*

no, not mine, never seen it. You have got me confused with someone else
