Aibu to point out that 'Mumsnet' is currently trending on Twitter/X because a labour MP has (rather comically) reported it to the police?

Dawn Butler has reported Mumsnet as a whole to the police, for talking to each other and Having Views she does not like.
Mumsnet is currently trending on Twitter.

@Sunbird24 thats a good point. Maybe bring it along, and I’ll bring a bbq, if we all get organised, could turn it into a bit of a party. There is going to be an awful
lot people there. Wonder if someone could do some music? (Please not whamageddon).

No because that would be elitist (Count) and non-secular (Christmas). But the rest sounds right.

Good points. I unintentionally misobserved Tentacula as a Count because Tentacula was wearing a cape and had fangs, when if I'd read Tentacula's 60,000 Tumblr blog posts (conveyed through the medium of interpretative dance GIFs overlaid with emojis) and memorised them I would know Tentacula is obviously sexless because that's how Tentacula feels on the inside.

Apologies to Mx Tentacula the Winter Break Octopus (who arrives all year round anyway or boys would only be born once a year)???

She's defamed the entire user population of mumsnet as 'nasty, vicious' and 'inhumane'!

That might be to do with the pigs in blankets thread ...

Just seen Mumsnet compared with 4chan and Kiwi Farms - if you know anything about either of those websites you'll know that this is a despicable comparison. Xmas Angry

Talking of despicable any good hints on the best way to clean out the drain in the fridge?

Rightsraptor · 21/12/2023 21:24

I was just thinking how I'd love to escape all this bloody Christmas prep and now I can! Because I'll be in a cell - yay! No peeling sprouts for me. Thank you, Dawn.

What time can I expect the door knock?

She's not actually in government, nor responsible for the mess this country is in, whatever you might think of her.

No she's not, she's supposed to be the opposition, but how the hell could anyone seriously consider voting for her if this is the batshittery she displays !!

There's a drain in the fridge?

A soft brush or an old toothbrush, preferably the brush on bendy wire may be better.

ATerrorofLeftovers · 21/12/2023 21:26

Bless her heart.

I could do with three meals a day planned, shopped for and cooked by someone else and an hour a day for exercise - never seem to find time to fit that in, ever.

sometimes at the bottom at the back of the inside of the fridge or it may be different depending on model

That’s much better (and what is this concept of a “boy” you speak of)?

Love it! I am a proud gender critical person.

Maybe they will ask for our extradition

Actually I've got some time tomorrow- do you reckon they'll pay for the train tickets - might be able to squeeze in a shopping trip and west end show after the dreaded police interview - who's coming?

#I'm a pink toothbrush, you're a blue toothbrush...

But that's probably not allowed..

Yes let's decide how we vote not on what's best for the country but whether someone shares our prejudices. That'll go great.

Not transphobic but staunchly gender critical. I personally believe that there are male and female bodies. There are differences and are not transmutable.

Anyone from Style and Beauty available to suggest an outfit for my arrest.
Possibly stripes or arrow print?

Stripes.

Suzi Quattro's fat nan tried arrows and that outfit was very unforgiving.

An inch east of Glasgow on the Ordnance Survey Map of 1899 is a small cairn which is the secret entrance to an underground bunker. I have filled it with penguins in the event that some of you manage a break for freedom.

(I am now being informed by my chief that it was supposed to be Penguins, not actual penguins, as you might be in need of a high glucose refreshment, so I've bollocksed it up there but you can stock up on biscuits in the corner shop on your way. Oh and please bring some fish for the actual penguins.)

Go armed (with sarcasm at the very least). Go silently. Godspeed.
