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 love the tattle thread. Let’s face it there is a lot of shite posted on here and some nasty posters who just want to kick people when they’re down. They make fun of those people on there. I’ve been sucked into some troll posts on here before but that thread notices them straight away and it’s like a realty check.

I go to the 'trolls' one quite a lot, sometimes to find interesting threads on Mumsnet, sometimes to get their take on certain threads here. They're not a great bunch though, very cynical and judgy, think they're better than people here. I'm sure they're mostly wrong about people's motives here too.

The problem with the Tattle thread is they don't seem to know what's going on elsewhere on the site. For instance they slag off MN for being arseholes about Meghan or Kate Have they ever read the Royal threads on there? The Tattle sub on Reddit is a good read though, when they are not all falling out.

Watching us watching you watching us watching them watching us watching you ...

Now I've got an ABBA ear worm.

Might go and watch Alan Partridge, now.

I give zero shits.

I really, really don't think anyone is jealous or insecure about their own dress sense when they make fun of unusual outfits worn by others

That's just not a thing

Edited

It certainly isn't. I roast the hell out of the Kardashians' horrible outfits, and while I might not mind a little of their money, I am not jealous of them in any way, and certainly not of their ugly, trashy appearance.

Sunquest · 05/04/2024 22:41

I said 'DELETE THREAD' not reinstate.

PossumintheHouse · 05/04/2024 22:45

Of all the recent threads to have been resurrected...

I'm bloody glad it's this one. 😂👀

Quick nobody move. They might not notice.

Well that was 10 minutes of my life I won't get back! Carol McGiffin though, that was a strange name to see in the sea of weirdness😂

That was a great computer game.

They’re currently going after a particularly nasty poster who is ranting about cyclists from her Range Rover, so I can’t muster the energy to care. Appreciate the heads up, OP. I like Reddit.

I looked at tattle once. I can't believe people have the time to be on a web forum, discussing another web forum.

Their lives are either extremely enviable or extremely sad, and I don't know which. But fuck me, how boring and pointless.

Same goes for any MN Reddit boards. Don't care if anyone like that wants to laugh at me.

Yet here you are on a web forum, discussing another web forum.

Oh the irony 🤣

And yet….here you are.

I love how people have takes so much time out of their apparently busy days to prove how little they care about it.

HussellRobbs · 07/04/2024 12:59

Many of the mntrll posts are very accurate though.

Sometimes I’ve gone on there to see if an irritating poster is irritating others too.

JamieFraserBackAgain · 07/04/2024 14:08

They are indeed.

Although to be fair, it would be accurate here too if it was allowed.

PigeonEgg · 07/04/2024 20:07

Also the humour there is like the humour of Mumsnet old - harder to find nowadays here, everyone seems to take everything so seriously.
