Had another look at that Daily mail website. Had to smile at this:

My kids are lazy slobs:why do I let them get away with it?

then underneath it says:

More Headlines

piratecat · 27/11/2009 07:26

oh have to go Will young is on GMTV

(bothered emote)

blimey

she sounds vair cross

thumbwitch · 27/11/2009 07:38

ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Dozy bint. Does she not realise how patronising and smug she sounds herself, saying the last thing she wants to do is share info with other mothers whose children she is uninterested in?

So glad she's not in my social circle...

I, for one, am glad she hates Mumsnet. She sounds like a dull, smug bovine. Thankfully she is clearly far too busy Doing Important Stuff like, er, writing a pile of shite for a pile of shite.

"Ever heard of the old adage that "every" prison inmate is innocent?"

Yes, but I fail to see the relevance here.

WouldYouCouldYouWithAGoat · 27/11/2009 08:05

can't take her seriously, why do we need to know who justine's husband is?

Who is she?

Just ignore the silly cow.

I love MN. There are times when I get really hurt with some posts to me but on the whole it is the most amazing place and I have had some really good support. Thanks all.

Cheappinkfizz · 27/11/2009 08:19

I'm going to enjoy reading the comments today

southeastastra · 27/11/2009 08:26

Another vote to ban the BD acronym.

Makes my teeth itch.

MaggieBelle · 27/11/2009 08:32

This is the only forum that doesn't go on about 'bd'ing.

Sarah, look at me.

I understand you being cross at the MNetters who were mean to you.

Still, it is not acceptable that you threw a tantrum and were nasty to Carrie and Justine. They were sad when you said not nice things about their website.

I want you to apologise.

Would you like to draw a picture as an apology or shall we phone them?

Good, very well done. Let us go and draw a lovely picture for the nice ladies.

ScaredOfCows · 27/11/2009 08:37

Think we should all visit the article (if we have time of course, what with spending so long on this vicious forum) and mess around with the cutesy green and red arrows. Such a shame there isn't a bit more support for MN reflected in the comments for the it. Most of the comments appear to be from people who are entirely ignorant of MN.

maxybrown · 27/11/2009 08:38

Oh princesstoadstool I had just copied and pasted that one as my favourite reply of all!! Ah that made me laugh, her daughter's little group sounds hideous tbh (oops there I go again) at least if I come on here and decide to hate you all, I can bugger off again to live my real drab life in which I am incapable of making any decisions so it seems Anyway, shall I have bran flakes or porridge, I am scared to grab a box until someone can come back on and reassure me please...panic panic panic

I can't slither far enough down the food chain to comment on a dull load of tripe from a bitter old nag. Allegedly.
