I used to think that I was a good writer. But, since joining MN, I have to face the sad realisation that this is untrue. If I comment on a thread, it dies, and if I start a thread, no one answers! I give up. I know I am a good reader, I will stick to that from now on....

It's always the strangest threads that take off. If I am posting something playful or daft it is a magnet for angry, literal minded people who think I'm mad and don't understand my OP and I end up in a head slapping, why did I bother position. Like when you make a play on words and everyone demands to know what you meant and you wish you had never bothered.

I ask simply for advice quite a lot and I am philosophical, either the readers are around who can help or they are not, and if they don't then never mind.

It's better to be a thread killer. Oops sorry if this kills the thread.

Thumbtack · 30/05/2013 08:41

I have seen the tendency to pull apart someone's post green

In can be annoying, especially if it was lighthearted. I think some posters get away with it more than others, but to me, that is what makes it such compulsive reading iyswim.

This thread won't rip you to shreds. It's a nice thread .Smile

Morning all, just off to have my eyebrows done and pop into school for a bit. Later I shall be dyeing my hair a rather glorious shade of red.

I feel the need to share something with you. Before I confess I must warn you that my children are now grown up and that I have only been on Mumsnet since Christmas. You MUST take this into consideration before reading on.

I have never seen an episode of Peppa Pig. I know nothing of its dynamics and dare I say it??? I seem to have missed the marketing for it.

Should I youtube it when I come home later??

amazingmumof6 · 30/05/2013 08:51

blue never seen peppa pig either.not interested.
don't waste your time.
if you want to watch something brilliant, watch Horrible Histories!
new series is on I'll get back to you with details later.

oh I'm stubborn. this thread will make it to 1000
