Would this piss you off? DP comment on day out

Day out yesterday, historical seaside town with various lovely view points. DP a bit grumpy all day and not paying a lot of interest to anything. Anyway, at one particular location I asked him what he thought of the view and he said ‘not great really….hang on, it’s just got a lot better now’ just as an attractive woman walked past, and he joked about her bum being the highlight of his day so far.

A bit disrespectful, surely? I told him to shut up and he said I should lighten up and ‘have a laugh’

The weather, what happened?

Tiredandtiredagain · 14/06/2025 07:37

What’s in the agenda for you and your wives today @Tristan5 , I presume it’s another day filled with commenting on this thread?

Just as long as he stays off the Sex forum, it’s a win!

For some reason I’d assumed @Tristan5 was over 60 and retired.

turns out he’s 47. Not sure why that made me chuckle!

It made me laugh too. The thought of any of our similarly aged male friends spending so much time commenting on a Mumsnet sex forum is really amusing 😁

How did that come about? I also thought over 60, a very stereotypical life

I’ve cut the grass
Wifey is pouring me a single malt
I have a curry on Friday evenings

All very stereotypical “older” man type behaviour.

Mind you he’s being wound up by two or three of us and having to respond 2/3 more times than any of us, it’s hilarious.

Do you reckon when he argues with the wives, he is this dogmatic? In which case I can understand why one died from the waist downwards! I think I’d die from the head downwards to be honest.

He may not comment (or at least with the current username), but I’m sure he’ll have a little browse ……. 🤢!

Bit of a MN addict!

On one of his sex forum posts…. He’s a virile man of 47

A self proclaimed “virile” man? Did either of the wives come on to confirm…..

Just read thread

and honestly laughed out loud re the @Tristan5 piss taking. So very warranted!

It's very weird that MN seems to attract these sad little men. Sex is discussed all over the internet, so there must be a really special kind of void for them to be drawn here.

JadeJ91 · 12/06/2025 10:12

Ah yes, my bad!

Please don't read that post and put the blame on you.

Would you have said similar to him? No. You would have probably just said "fine" or something non-committal.

It's not you that said something to deliberately annoy.

The gift that keeps on giving, thanks to all of you!

Just back from Friday night curry with my imaginary wife, to be met with multiple notifications and abusive PMs, thanks - very classy.

My imaginary wife is just pouring me a single malt, we’ll now chill for the evening and be happy.

I wish all of you the happiness that we have together.

Xx

I think there is something seriously wrong with you!!

Is it just me or does the number of male apologists/excusers on MN seem to have shot up lately?

Are they male or female?

A lot of blokes, and women who think they’re hilarious on ‘Tattle’, ‘Reddit’, etc.

Productiveweek · 15/06/2025 14:58

Hooray looks like @Tristan5 has been banned.

And this poster is so easily identifiable that we will know if he comes back under another name

win!

Hi btw @Tristan5 because we all know you’re still reading this thread (and getting crosser and crosser) 😆
