Don't get me wrong, I think that there are some lovely, really supportive people on here as well.

Is it just me though who thinks that there is quite a lot of bitchiness and nastiness that goes on here on a fairly regular basis?

Habbibu.

Fanella · 28/05/2008 14:44

lol habbibu, very good.

Squack · 28/05/2008 14:46

Yes it's full of bitches...we have to have somewhere to post!!

It's also full of witty, interesting women willing to lend you an ear when you need it.

You need a sense of humour to post here, without one you walk into a nest of vipers.

lulumama · 28/05/2008 14:46

either have the courage of your convictions and say who you think is nasty and do it in your regular name or don;t bother

and the barking dog thread was absolutely bonkers. and not in a good way.

LadyThompson · 28/05/2008 14:47

Other thing is, you've got to allow people to have a different pov to you cos otherwise, WHAT IS THE POINT of coming on here? For instance, someone was a bit rude about people who have private maternity care the other day. I found it irksome - both the view and the way it was expressed. Did I think she was a bitch and stomp off? Erm, no I didn't.

Can I recommend icklewicklefluffybeaniesandhuns.com?

Squack · 28/05/2008 14:47

the dog thread was ridiculous and a good example of why some shouldn't be allowed pets.

hunkermunker · 28/05/2008 14:48

Sheikh

I got halfway through the barking dog thread a while back and wanted to shoot the dog myself.

expatinscotland · 28/05/2008 14:48

How about going away then?

Don't like it, there are plenty of other places to go.

Pinions · 28/05/2008 14:49

Bit like real life really.

LadyThompson · 28/05/2008 14:49

I hear Yahoo Answers is very benign Try posting there instead

KayHarker · 28/05/2008 14:50

MN is poo, and full of bitches and wnakers.

I know because AIBU told me so.

VictorianSqualor · 28/05/2008 14:51

I didn't see the Dog thread, I remembered that
therearesomepeoplewhoaredogloversandsomewhoarent and stayed away.

chocolateshoes · 28/05/2008 14:51

I think some people have got too much time on their hands tbh

onlyjoking9329 · 28/05/2008 14:52

am i looking in the wrong places i have never experienced any bitchyness on here, i have however had massive kindness and support from mumsnetters, just a thought but it might be that you get out what you put in?

madamez · 28/05/2008 14:53

There's a lot of stupid bucketheads on here for certain. But then laughing at them brightens up the day, and provoking people into a really good flounce or threat to tell their mummy/lawyer/imaginary friends on you is what the internet was invented for.

Squack · 28/05/2008 14:55

Madamez you are my fav poster atm, slightly frightening, but favourite.

TigerFeet · 28/05/2008 15:00

OP: You are a bitch

MN: No, you are a bitch

OP: You are the bitch queen of bitchland

MN: You are the biggest bitch of all the bitches, the uberbitch

off to find a thread about a dog...

Pinkjenny · 28/05/2008 15:01

What barking dog thread?

francagoestohollywood · 28/05/2008 15:02

don't have a clue what this thread is about but saw hunker's dog post and LOL

brightongirldownunder · 28/05/2008 15:04

What would the world be like without bitches? Come on, I love the fact that people can be totally honest on here, as you have been! All the other sites are so boring. Imagine if all we discussed was the price of bread (which I have to say is shocking)
I look forward to my little catch up everyday Down Under (when you're all asleep).

LOL, Hatrick, I bet you can't do it.

NormaStanleyFletcher · 28/05/2008 15:09

deja vu

Habbibu · 28/05/2008 15:09

Yes, lets goad hatrick. Hatrick, I've always thought you're a lovely sane rational person. So stick that in your pipe and smoke it.
