Mumsnet helped her LTB in real life.

Love DMC and This Country - Hoping the new series is as brilliant.

I don't find her funny at all. Watching her on Never Mind the Buzzcocks, was painful. She sounds rather disparaging of mumsnet apart from one post that resonated with her.

It seems like she is saying everyone else's views are shit, but the one she understood, was the good one.

She mustn't have ventured over to the extremely supportive Relationships board.

imagine thinking the relationships board is supportive

Ace.

does anyone remember the thread with the woman who was in her 60’s maybe 70’s & she had hidden money for years and had a flat and it was empty and she was going to move into it and just be free?

i always wonder how she is.

Was this the one where she was going to be completing on Good Friday (a bank holiday) then disappeared/ the thread was deleted?
If it's the one I'm thinking of it was obviously fake.

(Yes the OP's article has DMC referencing it).

There's also a Radio Times feature on the new show. Mentions DMC in an NCT class. I wish she'd been in mine!

Also I vaguely recall that Mumsnet have copyrighted the phrase AIBU (?) so have they got a nice hefty chunk of cash from this?!

MaChienEstUnDick · 06/09/2022 18:16

You can't copyright a title.

This looks fab though.

I've been watching This country on repeat for months.
You've been having double dinners!

I loved this country and the seaman stuff on her Instagram over lockdown.

But I think it all went to her head and believed her own hype. Her new insta is dire shit.

I miss the old Daisy and reading other forums I'm not alone. I hope she's got good people around her.

Huh. I have googled as much as I can and found zero reference to any trademarking or copyrighting of the phrase ... but I SWEAR I read something a couple of years ago about it being quietly trademarked or similar. Am I going mad?! (AIGM?)

Aha - just found it on the ipo website as a trademark applying to internet forums.
