So bored of it.

This is nearly every mum in my area, pilates & matcha, botox and handyman & cleaner recommendations. No depth, no real worries..basic.

Aibu to want to meet funny, down to earth mums with depth and interesting pasts and conversations?

I don't think wearing trainer socks is really coining the market of individuality

true 😆 I agree. I think you kind of missed my point though.

honestly….mumsnet. Is anyone here capable of reading between the lines?

Implying people who like to exercise and a certain drink are not interesting or able to have have deep conversations is quite awful and quite frankly thick as shit

Take it that you do Pilates and drink matcha.

Not everyone is comfortable with blending in. Trends are set by those who don’t follow the crowd. You only need one of the popular to change their car and within 12 months the car park is full of them, necessitating the trend setter to change again, and onward it goes.

If you are happy being part of the flock that is absolutely fine. It’s a safe secure place for the majority. But it is unfair to call out someone, who is not a flock member, thick as shit. You are no longer a teenager.

Some of us like to be different it’s part of our makeup. I spend my working life in a uniform ( scrubs) so in my private life the urge to be different is very strong. Even if I did take part in the flock activities I would definitely not be wearing the “uniform”.
