Mocking MN posters

just thought I'd point out, there's a whole subreddit dedicated to MN users mocking threads / posters from this site

Thought I'd point that out to people who may be unaware

I'm shocked I tell you
shocked
to my very core

I just can't get on with reddit and find it crap. Even if they were mocking me which they wont be because I am great, I wouldn't be able to find it on that site with all the links and distracting pictures.

Reddit MN Trolls?
It looked pretty dead last time I looked.
That wasn't set up to mock mners though. It was for a saga that I think we are not supposed to talk about.
I didn't realise there was another one.

This will vanish in seconds
its like some weird mumsnet curse
like black magic

In fairness there are posters who post shit all over the internet (not just MN) which has a certain amount of comedy value.

Exactly. And they usually keep the same user names. Tbh, it saves a lot of time sometimes giving certain posters sage advice when it's often bullshit (thread pulled today which was a case in point, and eventually deleted after reams of helpful advice / bunfighting among other posters)

Ohhhhhh it's back << waves to the redditers>>

I dunno, HQ don't seem to stay late at The Towers necking gin anymore.
I reckon we can discuss all sorts without getting in to trouble.

And a load of other places. I can't bring myself to care. It's a bit sad in a stalkery way, people seem to have a lot of time on their hands.

It’s the internet. There’s a subreddit for every thing you can possibly think of. There’s probably a sub subreddit taking the piss out of the MN subreddit.

This made me megalol!

I like it, it's GoggleBox for MN.

So?

Pagwatch · 04/04/2024 19:59

I’ve not been on here for years but someone sent me a link to a Reddit talking about me
its just nonsense

LordSnot · 04/04/2024 19:59

I used to love Mumsnet Madness on Twitter. There's a lot of shite posted here so of course lots of places laugh at it.

NecessaryNC24 · 04/04/2024 20:00

So so many people have a problem with women having an opinion, debating intelligently and god forbid being MOTHERS (mostly).

As IRL , you have to realise they just don't matter. And they're making tits of themselves quite frankly.

CaptainCarrot · 04/04/2024 20:00

To be fair, a lot that is posted on MN is worthy of mockery.

I love the idea of being a MN bod of olden days <becomes misty eyed> Sitting around a deserted office at 9pm on a Friday night drinking warm gin, headphones on, munching on leftover buffet items from a meeting earlier in the day. Every now and again shouting over to the other poor sod who'd drawn the short straw of late night modding "Sandra, can you deal with this returning poo troll, love, I need a wazz"

Didn't I read this thread the other day?

DearSilverGirl · 04/04/2024 20:02

Useful reminder that this isn’t a private group of friends. Reddit piss takers are the least of your worries.

Ditchi · 04/04/2024 20:02

Threads from various forums including mumsnet and Reddit etc get discussed on different forums, because people post a lot of shite or funny things online. It’s the internet stuff gets shared everywhere, mocked, laughed at, read, don’t post anything online you’re not happy with the whole of the internet potentially seeing.

There's a place called tattle where they take the mick too. Often of the style and beauty bit, I can only imagine its jealousy

gamerchick · 04/04/2024 20:04

KezzaMucklowe · 04/04/2024 19:56

I like it, it's GoggleBox for MN.

I watched a YouTube video once of a bloke who deliberately trolled Mumsnet with a couple of threads. People were sending him PMs, it was weird.

I'd love to know why people outside find this place so fascinating.
