Read the Damn Post! AIBU

526 replies

HairsprayBabe · 27/04/2017 12:17

This really gets my goat and I probably need to chill the fuck out but I find it so annoying!

Someone will post an AIBU e.g.
DD (9) has done X,Y & Z, I think she is old enough to know better DH disagrees and she is just a kid still WIBU?

Followed by a flood of posters - How old is DD? What age is your daughter? etc....

Sometimes the answer to the question is in the thread title FGS [facepalm]

Some threads are long, I get that but at least read the blinking OP before responding! AIBU and this is something I shouldn't care about?

I've got your goat OP

If you stuff £5K in used notes in a brown envelope and leave it behind the Dyson Airblade in the ladies loos at Birch service on the M62 eastbound at 11:47 today you will get the goat back

If you contact the police then the goat gets it

shagged you vile cunt Angry

I am a professional in this area and I know that your goat is in fact the only surviving member of the 3 Billy goats gruff and is using you are his beard to troll hunt on this thread.

BenadrylCucumberpatch · 28/04/2017 11:00

I haven't RTFT so don't know if this has been suggested yet or not.

OP, have you thought about getting a Goat?

Palmtree · 28/04/2017 11:25

Come on, which one of you is really on glue?

You or the goat?

HairsprayBabe · 28/04/2017 12:00

Benadryl I should get a goat! What a fab idea!

DD is on glue hence NC

OP, you sound hysterical - do you have form for overreacting? I don't like my DH's goatee either, but it's just a beard, fgs! I can see past it coz I luffs him. You'll be telling us it's because it's ginger next.
NRTFT but there must be a back story to this. And I bet this will end up in Classics too!
YABU

HairsprayBabe · 28/04/2017 12:04

Soz for the drip feed, but DH is actually my 3rd husband, married DH1 for the money when he was 88 and he died of old age. Divorced DH2 as he was financially abusive and wouldn't let me fly first class to Maui while he sat in coach.

DH3 is a saint, although I did find this pill down the side of his bedside table the other day. Any ideas what it could be?

Have you tried a penguin bollard on the goat?

and if your SIL wants more than three roast potatoes at a festive meal, then you should send her to 11+ tutoring or she'll never get into grammar.

SumThucker · 28/04/2017 12:24

Lick the pill. If it's triangular shaped with an S on it and tastes of mint, it's definitely a Viagra.

Get your DH's belongings out and change the locks.

C0untDucku1a · 28/04/2017 12:25

I know youre joking maybe half joking but id probably definitely marry for money next time Grin

TheDevilMadeMeDoIt · 28/04/2017 12:26

What does the pill look like? Is the goat smiling?

caz323 · 28/04/2017 12:29

That'll be the Horny Goat Weed.

Emmageddon · 28/04/2017 12:56

Is this still going? It's obvious the OP is a PBP (is that the right acronym?) and all this goat stuff is covering up the fact she's skint and has a gofundme page, to finance her wedding in a Welsh castle - it's on her profile.

ILikeBeansWithKetchup · 28/04/2017 12:59

Someone needs to start a new thread before the next episode airs as this thread is getting close to full.

Hairspray can you start a new thread please?

Has anyone suggested that the goat may not be NT? So assumptive.

Teatowelfairy · 28/04/2017 13:53

Fuck off Warmest. Goat's have a hard enough time as it is without your goatist and goatsphobic diatribe!

I've reported your post to MNHQ, hopefully it will be deleted before some poor goat's traumatised.

SumThucker · 28/04/2017 13:59

Can anyone give me the gist of Warmest's deleted post?

I've seen the link to the Talk Guidelines but I don't know anyone who's actually read them.

ILikeBeansWithKetchup · 28/04/2017 14:03

I blame the teachers.

My best friend and SIL are TAs in the school and I believe every piece of gossip word they say.

I haven't checked with the school yet but I am fuming.

SumThucker · 28/04/2017 14:15

Then take it up with the Headteacher, ILike, instead of seeking validation from random MN'ers. Talk about first world problems! Hold still while I hand you a grip.

ILikeBeansWithKetchup · 28/04/2017 14:19

I can't speak to the head. No one lets me through the door . It's like Fort Knox at that school.

I once complained because I saw a child picking a daffodil out side and NOONE DID ANYTHING. It's such a shit school.

And the newsletter is littered with errors.. Littered I tell you.

I didn't get my Oxbridge degree to demean myself by being a SAHM and no one ever getting to know I have an Oxbridge degree.

ILikeBeansWithKetchup · 28/04/2017 14:19

I am very sorry if I appear to be me- railing but it really gets my goat too, OP. I feel you.
