I've had it. I've caved. I'm sick of being nice to idiots and bullies, i'm sick of not being able to tell them them to go fuck themselves. So here I am.

ShortandSweet, I don't like the site layout, find it harder to navigate, the profile pictures, the tickers, not being allowed to use bad language. I prefer mn for loads of reasons. Usually the very reasons netmums users don't like it.

RumTumTuggeress · 26/08/2015 16:21

beardsrock everything has to be candy coated over there or else the NM SWAT team rush in with their sparkly fire extuinguishers eliminating of us of all any straight talking with their confetti.

Angry no one can be that nice all of the time, surely?

I feel a lot of head tilting goes on over there.

wickedlazy · 26/08/2015 16:24

They can though! That's the scary part. Some people choose to have a smile on their face, every single day. The effort of that would wreck me. Surely you're allowed to show emotion? It's all very Bree Van de Kamp putting on "the mask" so she always has the upper hand/no one can hurt her.

RumTumTuggeress · 26/08/2015 16:25

Their still referring to me. How cute. Think they have a crush on me Smile

Can you link? Lol

RumTumTuggeress · 26/08/2015 16:28

Wicked they have ways of trying to get a reaction and I always fall for it. Behind all that terminology and etiquette are some major vicious bitches.

How do I link?

Welcome you atrocious cunt Grin

I've just had my hand slapped over "there" for directing people to join here, I may have also bypassed the swear filter a couple of times Wink

RumTumTuggeress · 26/08/2015 16:35

Yeah I got round it. Didn't go down to well. See it's so much more lax here. I can say 'fanny' Grin

Welcome Rum... Infact Rum is always welcome in my house usually accompanied by coke and ice.

I seem to remember joining nethuns years ago but havent ventured to the sparkly side for a long time.

wickedlazy · 26/08/2015 16:39

Copy and paste the www. bit at top of browser window. I know the type you mean .

RumTumTuggeress · 26/08/2015 16:40

Ha! Nethuns. Perfect way to describe them. Maybe netnuns would be more suitable though Wink

I am on yet another warning over there. Much better here, welcome, you won't look back.
I can say 'fanny here, made me laugh, you will fit right in

Hello and welcome to the Wine and Cake!

RandomSocks · 26/08/2015 16:42

You can say lots more than "fanny" around here. Welcome and Brew for you.

DCITennison · 26/08/2015 16:42

Oh god, please don't post the link.
It's tedious, really.
It's a fairly frequent occurrence that we have these threads, the vast majority of posters really couldn't give a hoot where you used to post or why you left etc etc.

SuffolkNWhat · 26/08/2015 16:43

The thread is in Wine Bar if that helps anyone

RumTumTuggeress · 26/08/2015 16:43

Have I pasted that correctly or do I do it for each page?

OP posts:
DCITennison · 26/08/2015 16:44

Oh, you linked. Lovely.

This thread reads the way I imagine NM, so hopefully you'll feel at home.

RumTumTuggeress · 26/08/2015 16:45

DCIT I posted it as someone asked for it. Just trying to be nice. Not too nice though :)

OP posts:
RandomSocks · 26/08/2015 16:45

No need to do it for each page.

Grumpyoldblonde · 26/08/2015 16:45

Hmm, so 'clicky' over there. I gave up on the site after the 'J-cub' thread.
