MN obsessions

[RoughWinds]

Why is MN obsessed with fluffy socks, why not just socks?

Also see new pyjamas, posh chocolate, warm coats, good quality yet inexpensive anything.

Can we use some new adjectives.

I miss when the only thing naice was ham.

It's obsessed with class, moralising over things with no moral value and being "attention seeking". They're all connected.

MN is obsessed with asking stupid questions, then accusing people of a pile on when they tell call OP out on their own....double standards, toxicity, selfishness....the list is endless.

MN is obsessed with asking stupid questions

Would you prefer too cold coats and old pyjamas?

Halo-polishing about existing on 'massive salads' and 'tons of veggies'.
In a similar vein, disdain for jarred sauces.
Saying 'only on MN' to anything one doesn't happen to have encountered before.
'Welcoming' newbies with 'Interesting first post OP.'
Snobbery about 'plastic tat' for kids
Accusing those with anxiety or hidden disabilities of 'making it up for sympathy'.
Intolerance of non-typical romantic and sexual setups.
Judging SAHMs and stepparents regardless of whether they've done anything to deserve being judged.
Sneering at people who let their kids believe in Santa past the age of about 3.
Calling people snowflakes for promoting kindness.

Well, you did ask.

MASSIVE SALADS with every meal. And fucking crusty bread.

Moaning. About everything. Years ago somebody said AIBU should be renamed 'Petty Gripes' and they were not wrong.

Using twee, silly insults such as, 'did you mean to be so rude?!' or 'are you on glue?' as if anyone would say that in real life 😂

The obsession over posting salaries is really quite amusing, very often not relevant to the thread at all
' we both earn six figures and I am teeny tiny because I live on a fart and a prayer' . yeah right ok what about offering advice to the OP because nobody cares what you earn and we're all millionaires online.

Toilet brushes....

We own / they rent.

How much do you earn/How much do you owe on your mortgage/What's in your pension pot.

What is the point in them? What difference does it make what anyone else's situation is? Just end up with a really long list of nothing interesting.

Why is mn totally obsessed with feeding a family of 93 over the course of one week from the leftovers of one chicken?!

Portion size and the amount of protein in children's meals, especially packed lunches.

Totally agree with the labelling of all toys bought by their in laws on birthdays and Christmas usually as "plastic tat"

As if their child only has toys crafted from the wood of ethical forests.

It's also very popular to hold the opinion that fabric softener is " vile" and makes all clothes slimy and repulsive and that in fact any "cheap" perfume or scented household product is obscene and causes most normal people such a severe migraine if they get a whiff they actually feel sick and have to lie down.

Only the devil uses a tumble dryer. Sheets you can stand against the wall in November are preferable to ones that have been in the dryer.
Air freshener is evil- open a window. Who cares if it's blowing a blizzard outside.

fucking crusty bread

very true, AND an excellent username right there for anyone who wants it.

Oh yes, heaven forfend that your bread isn't crusty.

Also, meats and cheeses. No.

Haha yes always the brisk no nonsense comments to open all the Windows and doors for 2 hours every day even in the depths of winter you don't need foul scented candles or God forbid a Glade plug in just expect your heating bill to double.

Jarred sauces are bloody horrible tbf. Every single one tastes the same-like theyve had thousands of unripe tomatoes jammed in.

Hot choc - it’s a drink not a way of life.

Looking down on what other people buy their children around Christmas.
Looking down on things being too 'American'
Grimm's rainbow
Certain toys having to have their manufacturers name in the description.

And mentioning lot of other threads people barely remember like naice pears, cutted up beakers and balonz ham.

Announcing a name change.

Hiding your husband’s hobby (cycling...)

Yeah if you want to be a different person wtf tell everyone you've name changed.....again nobody cares

It can’t just be bread and butter. It has to be LASHINGS of “proper” butter. not envy.
