My life rules

[54321nought]

Things life has taught me

1. Never never never eat white bread, or feed it to children, it just changes to sugar in your body, it is poison!

1. Never never never support slave based industry, eg cannabis, clothing made with child labour, UNNESSESARY TECH UPGRADES, like replacing perfectly good working phones for no reason

1. I'm sure I will think of more. Not much point in going into the environmental ones, like limit meat and diary, and never eat fish, don't drink bottled water etc, much debated elsewhere on Mumsnet

What are yours?

(televised Royal wedding I mean).

@BlueLobelia

My only life rule is that ironing should always be done with a glass of wine and in front of either a film or a Royal wedding.

Mine is that ironing should always be done by someone else.

White bread is poison but are Krispy Kreme donuts ok?
Op didn’t specify within the rules

@canihaveacoffeeplease

I only buy my cannabis from a small local artisan producer. She only grows seasonal, local varieties and the funds from her endeavours help support her baby goat and llama sanctuary.

I have visions of happy, skipping llamas and goats now.

I need to know what happens when you have an orgasm with a black eye now

Rule 1: Always make time for a good murder documentary

Rule 2: Always make time for a good series

@54321nought It's not poison, just carbs. People can make better choices like wholemeal bread, but white bread isn't poison.

What about half and half bread - is that only half poison? What if I have a sandwich with one white slice and one brown? Are muffins, crumpets, bagels, pitta, ciabatta, panini, chapatis, baguette, brioche or tortillas ok? If not, I’ll eat croissants instead.

Don’t take advice from randoms on the internet

3. Always have a book of stamps in your purse.

1. Don't tell anyone you have a book of stamps in your purse.

for me wholemeal is not a better choice...I'd end up living in the loo! TMI? :)

can i keep my stamps somewhere else or does it have to be a purse? I have got a wallet, does that count?

Don't stick beans up your nose
Mind your fingers in the doors
Look both ways before crossing the road

1. No bare penis' at mealtimes.

1. Never put toddlers to nap in wrap nappies and no bottoms.

1. Don't let the kids watch Ryan's World. They'll want stuff and you'll wonder how you failed so much as a parent that you're not a millionaire for raising an annoying kid who opens toys

@Keepitonthedownlow

Why is everyone being so nasty? OP didn't say anything terrible, just a discussion starter and subsequent posters who think they are hilarious are piling on. Weird.

you get to start the discussion but you (and no one else either) don't get to decide which way the discussion goes

YY to Ryans world.

And Tiana. Tiana's mega Christmas hauls youtube show offs have managed to ruin 2 Christmases for my Dcs who could not understand why Santa loves her more.

(I have learned now).

Why is everyone being so nasty? OP seems to make a habit of sanctimony.

It’s tiresome

*your purse.

I am NOT SURE about this. You may need to sign a disclaimer.

White bread is poison? OK then.
