Forgive me mumsnet, for I have sinned...

[AlternativelyWired]

Lighthearted!

My sin: I went to a Wetherspoons whilst on holiday in England. Not once, but twice The food was great and I have 3 children with very restricted tastes in food. I'm the same so the menu suited us all. I feel bad about going there knowing the mumsnet consensus on the guy who runs Wetherspoons but it met our needs. I am a Catholic and feel like I need to say a few Hail Marys as a result.

What are your mumsnet sins?

No idea @BarbaraofSeville but someone started a thread ordering us all to cut our grass because of her hay fever.
I think when the grass flowers/goes to seed there'll be more pollen, possibly. And that's the reason it's better for the bees, I guess. 🐝

Big brush debate is baffling and hysterical 😂

Pick up bog brush, clean shit and rinse under the water that is flushing - squirt of toilet cleaner before you clean shit.

This should eliminate mini shit particles.

Store in bog brush holder with toilet cleaner also in the holder.

If it has crusty shit on it, bin it and buy a new one.

It's a literal pound 🤦🏻‍♀️

I'm on holiday and need to catch up on all your sins. You are a very unholy lot indeed from my quick perusal. I shall have to dole out suitable punishments.

I like men (a lot of MN'rs seem very anti men)

I've never drawn a diagram to describe anything a neighbour has done.

I wouldn't know most of my neighbours if I fell over them ( I live in an apartment building)

Have no idea what Weatherspoons is (not from the Uk) is that a sin?

I rarely clean unless it really needs it.

I leave the washing out for ages and the world hasn't ended...yet.

I don't believe that every person I've ever had a disagreement with in my life is an abusive narcissist who is gaslighting me and who I need to go NC with immediately even though I have been gaslight by a former friend (confirmed by a psychologist) that being said I think terms like narcissistic and gaslighting are very overused on MN.

I'm a feminist as in I believe in equal rights for both men and women but I think there are times when us women are our own worst enemies.

I have no idea what to do with a chicken (besides eat it) and don't know how to make it last forever and a day. Not even Jesus could do that which is why he went for the loaves and fishes.

I actually use public toilets and store toilets if I need a wee. I even allow my thighs to make contact with the seat and I don’t hover.

I’ve caught no diseases yet.

I brush my hair with my son's stickle bricks when I can't find my hairbrush.

I never wear cotton knickers. They have no stretch and go baggy round the bum. I prefer stretch lace and l am still alive.

I never wear linen. If you even look at it, you get a crease on the section nearest your eye

😂😂😂

I love this! 😂😂😂😂😂

I could be a trad wife.
My cats are kept indoors only.

Genius! :)

Me too, and if I need a poo. I dont have MN hangups about what happens in the toilet.

It's either that or you sit next to me on the bus stinking of poo. You decide.....

I leave my washing out overnight. Sometimes purposely hang a whole load out at 9pm to stay out overnight because I'd rather get darked on than run the dryer if it's the last night before rain.
I cannot feed my family for more than a day with a whole chicken.
We don't eat massive salad.
My kids have screens.
I got rid of my toilet brush and I'm going to buy another as I cannot get my toilet as clean anymore.
I don't answer the door if I'm not expecting anyone because mobile phones exist!

I like a 'spoons.
My kids were formula fed.
I have a toilet brush.
I wash towels once a week.
Bedding gets changed whenever I actually remember it needs to be.
My washing gets darked on.

I'll stop there 😅

I hate 'popping' my 4 month old in his pram and going for walks. Hate walks in general tbh - they're so boring!!

Oh, and I also have the TV on for background noise while I'm home with my previously mentioned 4 month old 🙈

I think most step parents are doing the best job they can. sometimes the actual parents are piss takers and sometimes the kids are playing adults off against each other.

i don’t think bio is a derogatory term, just a statement .

im not a step parent and think blended families must be difficult to navigate

(not sure if they have loo brushes though 🤔)

I am just back from a Hollywood wax. A repeat booking, and booked in for the next one.

I have always taken dc to Macdonalds from when they were tiny.
It's clean, warm and cheap.

I freely admit I love Mcdonalds. A big Mac is the food of the Gods and a Big Tasty (without bacon) is a burger that can stand up to any designer burger anywhere. IMO.

I like my Mil , love a good spoons breakfast and I drink lots of wine !!

I love net curtains, I buy my clothes in primark and I let my animals sleep on my bed and I adored my ex MIL she was hysterical

My version of looking after the 7yo niece when her parents went out last Friday was letting her stay up until midnight, putting on the Parent Trap then giving her unlimited iPad screen time and ordering us ginormous ice cream sundaes from Deliveroo.

She was a nightmare the next day due to lack of sleep.

I have six children and they all have wanky names!!

Aaaahhhh.... I bet she loved it. :)
