MN at Christmas?

[MudAndGlitter]

This is my first Xmas here so I dont know what usually goes on but is it always this weird/bitchy/spiteful?
Everyone seems to be getting really worked up over small things and admittedly some bigger things.
It's like being back at school!

christmas has a very strange effect on mumsnet.

very entertaining nonetheless.

Just don't mention Aunt Bessies roast potatoes and you should be fine

bit like the eastenders christmas special.

Christmas wouldn't be christmas without a MN drama

I've stopped watching the soaps since joining mumsnet! It's a lot better entertainment on here.
DP mumsnets vicariously through me and we spend hours laughing at some threads.

I'm with you Mud I am new (October-ish) and I love it. I am waiting for threads like-

Guess what shit I had for Christmas!
I will never speak to MIL again.
Christmas Dinner Drunken Disaster

And many more

I can't wait to see all the ungrateful moaning ones because a MIL dared to get her grandchild something.
Of course I may have to start one like that if MIL buys DS a teepee again like last year!

Yes, there will be me and you Mud doing all the moaning.
