MN is a load of shit and all the posters are full of it

[ConnieDescending]

I came here as was fed up of the fluffiness on other parenting websites, the tickers, the over moderation of swear words and forceful opinions, the constant calling for hugs, the 'huns' etc

But you know what after spending 6 months here I'm heading back to those parenting websites where normal people frequent and will put up with the overt 'nicey nicey ness.'

Whats so great about MN? You all go on about it all the time, its freedom of speech, its being able to get seriously involved in debates, etc........well yes there is that but pretty soon the 'parping' becomes duller than the 'big (((((hun)))))'. And what the lack of moderation means we can write 'fuck off'...???

I would love to read a thread without cod being mentioned - fgs, you're like a load of playground kids desperate for attention from queen bee by mentioning her name!

Then there's the food threads where a normal conversation never occurs without 'fruitshoots are crap' or 'lentil weavers' thrown in...........so boring now as is the debate on what is crap and what is not, who gives crap and who does not and usually ends in people saying parp and fuck off. FGS, how anyone can read these threads again and again is beyond me.

MN is a place where you can't say you actually think the SMA emblem looks like a mother cuddling her child without attacks, you can't ever be on the middle ground of something.

On MN the newbies, a term I hate are generally are viewed as a lower species and treated with disdain, people whos opinions are less important or valid.

On MN those who shout loudest, post longest and are the rudest are the most regarded.

On MN, there are a group of mother judging all the other mothers as inferior to them and setting ridiculous standards.

On MN a topic such as weaning invokes 500 posts of pure drivel and arguments

Then there's the new AIBU threads which are just so fucking annoying and pointless.

So I will go back to my fluffy parenting forums where people are pleasant, normal and all are there for genuine reasons.

I will give up my freedom of saying fuck off.

MN is shit

connie sometimes things go a little weird near a full moon.

i like her

See how funny this thread is ConnieD, I totally agree with you MN is a harsh harsh place but it's real. Not simpering, lets love each other even though we would probably knock each other out in real life. I hope you appreciate that it has taken me ages to type this as I ha ve false nails.

Wouldn't you want your friends to tell you the truth rather than lie and say what a nice bird you are, even though they think you are a cunt really.

MT as my favourite ape

i am GUTTED

anyhow what family don't have it's bust ups? - speak as u find I recon and MN is excellent loads of differnt views/people/methods, no one has the right answers but it's fab to take on board other's views and see if they work in with your every day life if thing's you've been doing arn't working - ie my sleeping thread.

connie the only poster that is full of shit is you. If you dont like mn then fuck off and leave us to enjoy it.

yes...some posters are quite funny I'll admit to laughing at a few responses to my thread.

But fgs...the fruit shoot jokes and crocs and parping seriously wear me down..........its just so saddo! The point of ajoke is to know when to let it go!

I was particularly cross when I wrote the OP and had read a bloody annoying thread that just repeated the last million threads I read with nasty insults and flouncing going on.

Just wanted to point out that as much as the fluffy teddies annoy me on other websites...this kind of behaviour on MN annoys me more.

Ha ha sorry but this is hilarious

Read most of thread (F*ck knows why - exhausted and really don't care all that much...).

Echo the calls for real name!! Just because you think no-one would know who you normally are doesn't matter - it is hiding whatever!

but connie most of us ignore thread where we arent intersted
so you dont liek laughin at plastic shoes then either
go adn do somehtign in rl til that thread goes
or post on your own
or post on another one

whast the prob

Same as Flame - what if I thought you were great under your other name and wanted to try to get you to stay? Even though you think we're all full of shit

Most people don't like laughing at plastic shoes?!?!?!

Misread cod's post... exhausted sorry... ignore me

Connie, I want a pair of crocs, I have given my dcs fruitshoots in the past (we're having counselling) but sod Greggs sausage rolls give me a steak slice any day! sometimes you're not in the mood for the silly stuff, so log out and come back another day. Seems to work for me, so far...

no porcupine I dont like laughing at plastic shoes...i like wearing them though.

I cant ignore those threads...they seem relevant to my situation. And as a side note don't you find all the cod is great cod is shit stuff embarrassing and pathetic?

Um, are you going or what, Connie?

Connie, don't you fancy being a sort of subversive from the inside as it'ere tho?? I sort of agree with you on a lot of stuff (the food, the laughing at pple, the complete middle classness of it at times) but you could stay and try and sort of give a different view..........or maybe not? Guess there are more important things....

I'll go when ready cheesy

So its that you like them that is the issue... not the laughing at them.

If the laughing was at 6 inch plastic stripper style heels would it be more appealing?

ConnieDescending you aren't CoD are you? Just an idea from your name. Probably way off, I usually am.

"where you can't say you actually think the SMA emblem looks like a mother cuddling her child without attacks"
now hold on a cotton fricking picking minute, I started that thread and no-one got attacked
where? justify yourself or else I will be forced to conclude that you are talking utter shit
