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 think Piglet John is the best person to answer this. In the mean time open the windows and consider a dehumidifier.

You should send your SD to private school, even if it means that you can't pay the mortgage. You knew what you were getting into when you met him. Do you resent her? No wonder she plays up and slaps you.

Wont anyone think of the children?????

Marking place.

Nothing to add but making my place

Place marking

I need to see how this ends.

Just use the Watch feature

I can't believe you didn't discuss your children's names, choice of nursery wallpaper, views on macro economic policy and who you would spend Xmas with BEFORE you had children with this man.

Frankly, you sound controlling. You're not your DSC's mother, and never will be. Butt out, OP, and let your DH handle it.

Also, were you the OW by any chance?

Tell them to fuck the fuck off to the far side of fuck, and when they get there, to fuck off some more.

Sharon?

I am nominating this for classics, or possibly an "MN - Uncovered" section

THIS IS A ZOMBIE THREAD...
(The OP had come back, and updated, the cheek of her!)

Childish.

And ageist.

Yeah.

Its just a snapshot.You really shouldn't judge on one incident.

Luis - the problem is no-one knows if you are really nominating this for classics or just throwing in another commonly-seen MN line...

Can't you just quickly poach some pears?

You could juggle them?

TAAT. Very poor form.

Elemental - for a moment, I thought you said "park pom bears" - that's an explosive combination on MN.

My DH is perfect, so bad luck OP

Well, when I did the Mumsnet haircut I looked like Rod Stewart!

Don't take more than two fucking pears. Read the fucking sign. I SAID NO.

GRABBY!!

It's not even a Friday night!
