For telling some -dimwit-- fellow poster that pregnancy tests are not reliable indicator of pregnancy 4 days after you wee on them and that the reason its yellow is because it's full of dried piss..

Also that the only way to describe a 'metalic' taste in your mouth is to say its tastes unsurprisingly of metal.

Banned from a mothering message board.. i am semi embarassed !

sorry, i just need to clarify, rhubarb, am i the poster who's got something on you but has changed her name?
I'm asking this not to perpetuate anything, but just to reassure you that i have nothing "on you", and i've never interacted with you before, but i was startled by your response, and can only assume you feel i was behaving in a malicious, personal way towards you
the reason i said pot etc was because you said the posters all had a superior complex and then called them a mob, which is (and forgive me, it was intended in a jokey-ish kinda way) "superior" behaviour

If you stay here are a few rules:

Correct punctuation in your thread titles at all times or the Pendantic Police will get you.

Never start a debate about religion, or classes of people, or 4x4s, or private schools unless you want to stay up all night.

Swear freely.

Never start a thread in the "Am I being unreasonable..." titles, because the answer is, yes you are.

Anyone got any more?

FreddysTeddy · 01/05/2008 17:08

Yeah, you were very harsh to minou and I couldn't understand that either.

Think you should give her a (((((HUG))))))

vicky1985 · 01/05/2008 17:08

Thanks Rhubarb

Rhubarb · 01/05/2008 17:09

minou - I have had problems in the past with posters using things they know about me to intimidate me. And I use the term "mob" when speaking of a few Mumsnetters who seem to be ganging up on one poster. Which has often happened on Mumsnet too.

I don't mean to sound superior, but I do find myself wading in to support the one I feel is at a disadvantage.

MrsMattie · 01/05/2008 17:09

Ah, I see you're all hugging and hunning. Lovely.

minouminou · 01/05/2008 17:10

i think there's more to this, and i think rhubarb may be worried about my identity, so is there any way to reassure her?

expatinscotland · 01/05/2008 17:10

and no textspeak.

Rhubarb · 01/05/2008 17:10

Sorry minou - I did think you might be a name-changer. I'll give you a friendly nod!

FreddysTeddy · 01/05/2008 17:11

Sorry. It's not funny, I know it's not.
minouminou · 01/05/2008 17:12

OK, fair enough, but i've always used this name on MN, and have never joined other forums, and i certainly wouldn't intimidate anyone in this manner, as i'm with you....real name and all that

minouminou · 01/05/2008 17:13

what? no hugzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz?

Rhubarb · 01/05/2008 17:14

minou.

Never admit to feeding your kids fruit shoots and sausage rolls.

Rhubarb · 01/05/2008 17:23

(I was once banned from a nameless parenting site for putting a pic of my dd on there. She's in my profile - can you believe they actually banned me for showing her to them???)

honeybehappy · 01/05/2008 17:26
