AIBU to think that comprehension just isn't a strong point with some people.

I've noticed this quite a lot over the time I have on MN.

Referring to a recent thread re early retirement. The poster quite clearly stated that DH wanted to retire in 14 months (when mortgage paid) and wanted her to retire at the same time. She is 10 years his junior and works part time.

OK, first answer was "So he wants you both to retire in early forties"

Second response "Can you change to part time work"

I can understand this if we were 10 pages into the thread because we don't all have time to read all responses, but come on, the first two responses?

I'm not the poo troll

But would anyone mind telling me a little story about their most embarrassing turd incidents

Newly single, about to go on dating scene. Should I remove my pubic hair?
I have a grey one. Should I tint it?
Mine aren't curly or short, should I perm them?

It's scone rymes with gone

Can you please keep christmas threads in the correct place

OMG! I should of guest the grammer police wood turn up!

LTB. Sweetie; You have a dh problem, not a mil problem. How very dare he defend his own mother- all you did was try to go on a permanent NC by knifing her!? I mean she asked to see you every other Sunday of every other leap year! Meddling mare!

Actually my DS was reading Dickens for fun by the time he started reception, so it is possible.

Ffs wear are youre manors grunt

The answers would be completely different if the genders were reversed! Typical MN So misandrist.

You need to call 101 and report, OP

Still fumming. You lot will be really sorry when I tell Sharon of you.

Go above the class teacher. If she's under 30 with no children, she's not qualified to set your child's reading level.

Go to the head and the board of governors... it's what they're there for.

Good luck and (((hugs)))

Artisan courgette bread and some Quinoa.

LookingThroughTheFog Oh God, the Christmas smarties thread!!

Worst case of RTFT ever.

Well, quite frankly I wouldn't give instant coffee house room! Even the lowliest of tradespeople is given freshly-brewed coffee from my top-of-the-range Gaggia (RRP £970). Mind you, they don't get it in my best china - that's a step too far.

Dear me, won't anyone think of the children? wrings hands

Of course chocolate cornflake cakes are best, but surely if they just want to raise money it'd be smarter just to hand over the cash you'd spend on ingredients?

All my bookcases are upstairs.

You are so lucky to have a dh.

I don't have one and can never have one.

Also I don't have a mother, father, sister, brother, best friend, aunt, uncle or even a neighbour.

How dare you come on here rubbing it in my face!

No no flinging. Lemon drizzle. Gavel.

-might consider cornflake cakes if made with cocoa pops-

"How dare you come on here rubbing it in my face!"

Ewww! I hate it when that happens.

You shouldn't expect your cleaner to empty the waste-paper bins, and you shouldn't allow your dc to put tissues in them. How dare you expect her to deal with your body-fluids!

(This was actually said to me on AIBU)

And I have brown leather sofas.
