Many of you will know I was on earlier and we all got a bit worked up.......but I like to think it was quite fun.

They're not taking it with the same good humour on netmums!!

It hasn't been deleted, the link has a space in the middle so doesn't work.

Confuzzled you have never used your creuset

tommypickles · 03/07/2009 20:55

And all of these opinions from people who earlier said you shouldn't judge people based upon one thing you know about them!

It's really dull, I wouldn't bother trawling through it

daftpunk · 03/07/2009 20:57

tp...i didn't see your earlier thread so not sure what your problem is?

Confuzzeled · 03/07/2009 20:59

Mango, No, it looks very expensive and I already have a stack of casserole dishes that will no doubt get broken at some point. It's in the cupboard with the 3 boxes of crystal glasses I'm sure will also get used one day

MangoJuggler · 03/07/2009 21:02

farking ell they are brilliant things confuzzled, can you do a search on amazon and link a similar one here? I'll buy it off you if it's a biggun

Confuzzeled · 03/07/2009 21:09

Wow, not cheap are they, wish I could remember who gave it to us. It's a 21 cm casserole dish, thanks for the offer to buy, but may actually try and use it, none of mine can go in the freezer and microwave as well.

MangoJuggler · 03/07/2009 21:10

Dang

but hey, it'll take the most awf abuse, you will LOVE IT

OrmIrian · 03/07/2009 21:12

tommy - I'll have you know that we can cry and sob and wail just as well as those netmum people And take umbrage too. And flounce! Oh hang on you are damned good at that already

Confuzzeled · 03/07/2009 21:12

It's been in my cupboard since July 2003.

daftpunk · 03/07/2009 21:15

has she gone already?...crikey that was quick

SerendipitousHarlot · 03/07/2009 21:17

Oh.. I have read both your threads now OP.... and have come to the conclusion that you're rather a knob.

HecatesTwopenceworth · 03/07/2009 21:22

You know what? I am sure the people who choose to post on netmums are exactly the same as those who choose to post on here - some intelligent, some, erm..., some text speakers, some pedants, some take-it-on-the-chinners, some ott sensitive how-very-dare-yous, some really nice, funny, fab people and some stirring bitchy shits...

I am sure it is as diverse as this place.

I tell you what though. One of the things I see people criticising is the delete-happy mods..but it's no different here these days, is it?

And tbh, netmums, mumsnet, babythingie - who gives a shit? People find their 'place' and settle down there.

daftpunk · 03/07/2009 21:27

how to you wave in a friendly manner?

Alestorm · 03/07/2009 21:27

And also what Hecate said.

hear hear-was about to post similar.

HecatesTwopenceworth · 03/07/2009 21:33

You do it with a big smile and you put your back into it!

Instead of the limp hand raising with stony face that is the 'acknowledgement'.

I admit to being a MNetter and a NMer.

They both have their places. Mumsnet is v.funny and v.sharp. It is also v.brutal and can be v.picky (I fully expect to get for all the v.s i am using).
There are quite a few members on NM who would be torn limb from limb on MNs and they need somewhere they can go.

Some people need the huns and hugs. Some people prefer the 'get a grip' approach more favoured on this site.

The thing I find hardest about NMs is the amount of 'bloody asylum seekers getting free cars and living in mansions' and 'its pc gone mad' posts. And just as you get stuck in to a good argument the thread gets pulled.

But its not half as cynical as MNs. I suppose I feel more at home here because I was bought up as Cynicalist (like a methodist but with more ).

I like to pop over to NMs though. Some people have been really lovely to me over there and I can be a bit needy

Lilyloo · 03/07/2009 21:56

Lol is this a new way of trolling then, openly admitting it and having us follow them on other internet boards

great idea

Rollergirl1 · 03/07/2009 22:06

I think you're all being a tad harsh. She's just trying to stamp her mark. A bit too hard. Hardly a crime. And i'm sure you've seen it a million times before.
