About not listening to the middle-aged male groomers in disguise? Pulled?

For the avoidance of confusion, latecomers may wish to be aware that the deleted thread was about whether everyone who posts on this forum is quite who they say they are. It was suggested that the LTB brigade are really bitter middle-aged men. Hence why there are suddenly so many men apparently "outing" themselves here. Geddit?

BitBewildered · 07/10/2013 00:02

Balls. I've missed something haven't I?

CakeExpectations · 07/10/2013 00:05

Really should be going to bed, but Wisey's post earlier has me craving some old DB magic. May have also had Wine

You have impeccable taste, Wisey

nopanicandverylittleanxiety · 07/10/2013 01:49

Ha ha. This has just totally cheered me up.

GuybrushThreepwoodMP · 07/10/2013 06:52

Cog and AF are now just posting that they are men as an evil ploy in order to GAIN CREDIBILITY so that they can then post an insincere LTB to someone who's husband doesn't deserve it in a pointless attempt to sabotage a complete stranger's perfectly healthy relationship! MWA HA HA!

CogitoErgoSometimes · 07/10/2013 07:13

I am not a bloke... I am a dumpy middle-aged woman with a piano fixation :) But then again... I would say that, wouldn't I?

Strong whiff of testosterone in the air this morning!

Anniegetyourgun · 07/10/2013 10:14

I don't believe you. Any of you. Even the ones who say they are lying.

And those blokes witches in Mumsnet Towers, they're just as bad. Deleting threads all over the place. You've got to ask yourself: what do they have to hide?

Boosterseat · 07/10/2013 10:16

oooh a conspiracy!

Its them lizard people again, slithering all over the place Grin

LittleMissGerardLouiseButler · 07/10/2013 10:29

Ooh do you think it's really Justin and Oliver at MNHQ?

CogitoErgoSometimes · 07/10/2013 10:31

Mumsnet Towers is riddled. Surely everyone knows it's Justin 'Slugger' Roberts at the helm? Weston-Super-Mare Cut-Throat Shaving Champion three years running. Sends that very nice woman out to do all the interviews while he lurks in the shadows. Must be true. I read it on t'interweb... Confused

Christ alive, I spend one evening talking to DH about Downton Abbey and everyone is outed as middle-aged men trying to turn women against their perfectly lovely husbands.

I mean, it's totally normal to refuse to allow your wife to wear shoes and demand that she clean your bollocks with her toothbrush, isn't it?

Anniegetyourgun · 07/10/2013 10:47

Of course it is, VeeAndTea. He paid for the toothbrush, after all.

SaskiaRembrandtVampireHunter · 07/10/2013 10:50

And why would she even want shoes? She'd only wear them on her feet.

VeeAndTea · 07/10/2013 10:54

Exactly!

Just last night the wife and I were talking and I said to her "you're a lucky lady, not many men would eat that atrocious dinner you just cooked". I mean, fucking swan roasted in kumquats* followed by gold-leaf chocolate mousse. You'd think she'd make a bloody effort!

*I just like that word

Anniegetyourgun · 07/10/2013 11:04

Kumquats? Fuckin' forrin muck. She'd be wearing that dinner if it was my missus.

TheVermiciousKnid · 07/10/2013 11:17

Ah, I'm glad you're all finally showing your true manly colurs! At last, some good, common sense advice.

KateSMumsnet · 07/10/2013 11:17

Morning folks,

Thank you to those who brought this thread to our attention. We have to say that TSSDNSP, and technically this is a thread about a thread. But seeing as you're now talking about....we're not really sure what you're talking about, we're going to leave this as it is.

However, if the thread starts to skewiff, we will zap it.

Boosterseat · 07/10/2013 11:29

I missed the memo about cleaning bollocks, surely giving them a good old scratch dislodges the dirt and I will hoover it up later? fucking excellent wife i am

Brings a whole new meaning to Dyson ball cleaner.

Anniegetyourgun · 07/10/2013 11:30

Morning Kate! Or should I say... Charles?

VeeAndTea · 07/10/2013 11:32

Morning KarlMN, nothing to see here, move along

CogitoErgoSometimes · 07/10/2013 11:33

To quote Monty Python (and does that out me or what?) 'this is all getting very silly...'
