Hi all I logged into this site last year to discuss my son, (who now is settled with my first darling grandchild, she is lovely). Then came back bout my "father" but cannot get people to understand what is going on. I watch u all bitching about stupid stuff and would love to say " ugh hello there is other things going on in the world than MY CHILD IS NOT TALKING TO ANOTHER CHILD AND I WANT TO BEAT HER MOTHER. Get a grip people. I dont give a shit if your child hates billy across the road and he has not been invited to the party , get over it , I dont give a flying fish if your nannie does not live up to your standards, do it yourself for gods sake, what I do do give a shit about is how fucking malicious you lot are and how we "newbies" dare not post again for advice

pssst I think Hob was being sarcastic

Hob - how are you gorgeous children?

Olifin · 12/05/2010 00:06

He does thinker!

Oh OP, why start a thread like this? Honestly - you're not going to gain any sympathy this way.

You sound very much like my Sister.. she's a very angry bod and comes across as very ranty on message boards (but she's much more used to Netmums etc) but she's not like that really.

Each to their own, OP

David Cameron's nice.

I'm so sorry that you feel as if you didn't get the right answer to your thread justsue. Maybe you did get the right answer though, it's just not the one you wanted to hear.

Lay off the rest of the people on here though, we all have problems, you may see some of them as insignificant but if they affect someone's life in some way and there's a person on here that's willing to spend the time to chat to them about it then the world's a bit of a better place.

Is it a full moon?

Thediaryofanobody · 12/05/2010 00:09

Couldn't agree more toccatanfudge I hate the whole my shit stinks more than yours attitude, people can have serious problems in their day to day life but come on MN for light relief.

justsue · 12/05/2010 00:09

ok, I give up your right unltd, YOu remember my threads earlier and they are now of no consequence cos they are a year old.

Hobbgoblin: patronising not a good look

Thinker: do what you like

For the rest I am a very chilled out person so laid back that I could be blown over, but entitled to a rant and rave like the rest of you

GypsyMoth · 12/05/2010 00:11

rant and rave about WHAT though??

hobbgoblin · 12/05/2010 00:11

Hi Tocc - they are splendiforous thank you! How are you?

I have been so busy I have actually had whole days of not being here. Imagine that!

unltd · 12/05/2010 00:11

chilled out person

IMoveTheStars · 12/05/2010 00:11

To quote Ross:

your = your
you're = you are!

Thediaryofanobody · 12/05/2010 00:12

Ranting and raving is fine when you need too but moaning about bitchiness will bitching is a bit double standards.

thinker · 12/05/2010 00:12

Belledy chocolateyfluffyfun Do you really fancy david Cameron He has a belly button face, like Karen off Shameless and David Walliams.

belledechocolatefluffybunny · 12/05/2010 00:12

Chilled out? Really? Have you read your first post? Go on, I dare you.

Thediaryofanobody · 12/05/2010 00:12

Sorry meant WHEN bitching not will.

GypsyMoth · 12/05/2010 00:12

jareth she'll tell you off for pointing that out!!!

SirBoobAlot · 12/05/2010 00:13

So do you only ever have serious conversations? MN is an invaluable resource, but more than that it is a community, and the chat that goes on is just as important as the serious advice. I think its a real shame if you can't see that. I also think its a shame if you honestly value your problems above someone elses; there isn't a "tally value" for concerns or fears. If you're concerned, worried, angry, sad, whatever, its the same emotion.

Everyone has just as much right to share this, discuss it, and receive the support and information MN is so fantastically full of.

And remember, everyone was a newbie once

belledechocolatefluffybunny · 12/05/2010 00:13

I don't fancy him, he has an honest face, there's a sort of peace in it, like Obamas.

toccatanfudge · 12/05/2010 00:13

you know what tipped me over the edge a month or so back just after I'd seperated from exH.........no nothing to do with all of the "expected" stuff........it was the fact that I got the lettter for DS3 starting nursery in September and discovered that he'll be starting at 8.30am instead of the 9am I was expecting and planning ahead around.

It totally screwed me up for a few days.

One persons mountain is another persons mole-hill.........and vice versa imo

MrsRhettButler · 12/05/2010 00:13

what a funny thread...

there's a flouncers corner you know, or preferably if you're going you could just go quietly? thanks [not usually this mean emoticon]

toccatanfudge · 12/05/2010 00:14

hob - good to hear it - I still remember your threads

SirBoobAlot · 12/05/2010 00:14

And yes, you have the right to rant and rave... But ranting and raving about other posters ranting and raving? Kinda an oxymoron, there...

justsue · 12/05/2010 00:15

LOL, IM NOT HOBGOBBLIN whoever he/she is I am me, I am not a angry person just frustrated at what my life is throwing at me. Of course I care about other peoples lives, For gods sake I am looking after my father who put me into care because "I have five children and only four are perfect". give me a break guys, i may come across wrong but dont mean to

belledechocolatefluffybunny · 12/05/2010 00:16

See sue, that would really piss me off. I'd be incredibly angry at that.
