To be fed up of over analysis on MN? (Lighthearted)

[FrangipaniDeLaSqueegeeMop]

Examples

"My teenager doesn't tidy his room and doesn't care he's messy"
MN over analysis response "He's probably being bullied at school, or has autism"
Actual issue: Teenagers are lazy beggars

"My husband hates cooking he won't even make beans on toast it's so annoying"
MN over analysis response: "What was he fed as a child? Maybe he has an eating disorder? Or autism?"
Actual issue: he's useless

"I'm so daft, just spent 30 minutes looking for the car keys, turns out they were in the milk shelf of the fridge and the milk was in my handbag!"
MN over analysis response: "This is a sign of early onset dementia. Or autism"
Actual issue: everyone has a brain fart now and again

It's amusing and annoying in equal measure

My DH didnt put a x at the end of my text.

MN : LTB. Hes gaslighting you, are you sure hes even your husband.

Reality. He forgot. Hes a bloke.

OP you seem inordinately worried by strangers on the internet. Do you normally overreact to small things? You are probably autistic and you sound like a stepmother as well tbh.

Yes, I also hate the way its assumed by some that some thing you're idly pondering on mumsnet is in fact deeply troubling to you and you need to get a grip, get off facebook, learn to handle your emotions, seek therapy, get new friends!

We step mothers are the worst

The ones I find personally irritating are the 'woo' ones that run something like 'The lights have been flickering on and off and my earrings disappeared from the bathroom shelf and then reappeared in exactly the same place the next day!'
Woo thread participants: 'It's a poltergeist/the disturbed spirit of the man who used to live there and DIED/your granny coming through -- but if it's bothering you smudge with sage/call a priest/tell the spirit to leave!'
Actual explanation: You have dodgy electrics and are mildly forgetful about small objects.'

"I'm a step mum and don't want to look after step kids in the school holidays" - why should you? Not your kids or your problem?

"I'm a step mum. I want to go away without the step kids" - you're the devil. Kids are part of your family and should be treated all the same.

Omg! cross post but lol.

@FrangipaniDeLaSqueegeeMop even though you put ''light-hearted'' in your thread title!

Some people just won't allow you to be light hearted. I'm sure they attempt it (however successfully) themselves sometimes.

Not your point, but when did all men and MIL’s stop being “narcs” and start “gaslighting”?

🤣

Perhaps you should all go for some counselling.

My favourite one just recently..

OP: I sent a needy text omg I'm never like this ever!

MN: you're clearly either batshit crazy. You have unresolved past life trauma. Or autism,

Irl any of us can occasionally get a bit unsure and send a needy text without any underlying problems.

My DS16 just smacked me in the face and called me a vile bottom feeder because I asked him to rinse the bath... should I take away his privileges?

MN: disgusting behaviour, you deserve better, take away his privileges for life

Vs

My DSS16 just smacked me in the face and called me a vile bottom feeder because I asked him to rinse the bath... should I take away his privileges?

MN: you seem to be enjoying punishing this poor defenceless child. Have you considered that your controlling, domineering and abusive behaviour is the root cause of all your problems

Sometime it's amusing😂
Most of the time it's pretty eyeroll worthy and that's it.

It's always autism, mistress or pornhub behind everything 🙈

Me and DH had a row because I wanted to watch the antiques roadshow on tv but he was watching gardener’s world.”
Response:
“Clearly your dh is controlling and abusive. You should get your ducks In a row.

Were you the OW?

BinocularVision 😂 This drive me mad, I used to try and rain with them but people want to believe the batshit crazy options.

Along similar lines are the ones where the OP has found an item in a place they don't remember putting it, or discovered they've accidentally left a door unlocked - but are sure they remember locking it, and half the replies are about how there's definitely someone living in the loft/wall cavity, rather than the OP having a lapse of memory.

It's the double standards that get me.

Man walks around a place he's staying at half naked making people uncomfortable; its abuse, he's a pervert, he's exerting his dominance and putting women in their place. A woman does it and it's her right! Don't shame or oppress her by expecting her to dress appropriately!

🙄

Omg yes!!!! I get this!!!!

Op: I’m dating someone thats really rude to me.

MN: maybe he’s not rude maybe he is autistic.

I posted the exact same thing on another thread that was deleted saying I’m fed up of everyone suggesting autism on MN for every little thing and got told maybe I dislike autism and see it as a “dirty word” wtf no I’m just fed up of seeing any negative behaviour immediately passed off as autism on here! No some people are just rude!

If it's person over 45 it's dementia. Always.

OP: My partner put his arms around me in bed and went in for a cheeky grope. What should I do.

MN: this is sexual assault. Has he raped you before? Call the police. Leave him.

Tuckedinbelly

Yep see that a lot as well!

3Britnee yeah I've often pointed out soundless standards on MN and been called sexist, misogynistic, minimising toxic masculinity, being a male apologist, and victim blaming. All for pointing out double standards

I was once told to get off a thread because men shouldn't be on MN and are the scourge of the earth. Err for starters I'm a woman, but even if I wasn't, so what??

Yes, because people simply cannot be lazy or stupid or horrible anymore. They must have an undiagnosed disorder. They must have special educational needs or be narcissistic or have anxiety.

OP: “my mother is driving me round the bend.”
MN: “be grateful you have a mother, mine is dead.”

I mean it’s sad and all, but if a thread is that difficult then there’s always the option not to read it.
