and double points if you are wearing boden

brilliant!

"Boden is overpriced cheap clothing, if you buy it you're an idiot. If you post on Mumsnet, you're a pretentious yummy mummy wannabee... and an idiot. That is all.

I have one boden 'piece' ..love saying 'piece' so therefore am an idiot..I am also a cbbc watcher and a werewolf

MaryZed · 15/10/2012 17:30

I post on Mumsnet, I may quite well be an idiot (though not a yummy mummy wannabee and I don't think I'm pretentious), but I have not only never worn Boden but I actually don't know what Boden clothes look like.

I don't think they sell them here.

garlicbutty · 15/10/2012 17:34

Boden - nope
pretentious - arguably
yummy - Hmm
mummy - nope
wannabee - yup
idiot - definitely
Mumsnet - interminably
Daily Mail - occasionally

5/8 or thereabouts. Not bad ... going to the Idiot Corner now. With beer.

ScrambledSmegsEvilTwin · 15/10/2012 17:35

Ooh, interesting that a Daily Mail reader is spouting about MN idiocy on there.

Wonder what Nancy66 would make of that?

[hmmface]

CockyPants · 15/10/2012 17:38

I hate boden. Am I an idiot?

clippityclop · 15/10/2012 17:40

Happy idiot here too. I'd be worried if I ever had the desire to read the Daily Mail.

MaBaya · 15/10/2012 17:41

My kids have Boden jim jams. I am on MN regularly. But I DONT read the DM. So I am clearly not THAT much of an idiot.

EnjoyVampirebloodResponsibly · 15/10/2012 17:43

Christ on a bike, you've got to be a gold plated nobber to post on the SSOS at 00.07 in the morning.

FWIW I have Boden shoes, and I liked the Helena photos.

MissBeehivingUnderTheMistletoe · 15/10/2012 17:46

I do not wear Boden meself but I confess THAT I AM A BODEN ENABLER and probably an idiot

MarmiteParenting · 15/10/2012 17:50

Have only just joined MN and until this thread thought Boden was a make of cafetiere/teapot (Blush is that bad?)

so I guess I am a wannabe idiot?

CountryBelle · 15/10/2012 17:57

Im wearing my cosy boden bodywarmer and im here. Dont have any chn yet. Im quite happy to describe myself as a yummy mummy wannabe.

StrawberrytallCAKE · 15/10/2012 18:18

Shit I forgot that the first post I ever posted on mumsnet was in style and beauty asking about clothes for the 'yummy mummy' I got totally flamed and had to change my username sharpish. I had no idea of the negative connotations that phrase had, I am a true true idiot.

Abzs · 15/10/2012 18:20

I am quite often an idiot.

nowrinklesonamelon · 15/10/2012 18:57

Shove up a bit I have a 3 year old Boden wool jacket that I just love each year it comes out with my jeans and boots mature idiot--

MissFoodie · 16/10/2012 10:34

I'm wearing my Boden Rainy Day Mac - love it, am always asked where it's from (i'ts plain black)

Curtsey · 16/10/2012 11:15

I never heard of Boden til I started posting on MN
I post on MN
I occasionally sneak guilt-laden peeks at the Daily Mail
I am TOTALLY yummy but I am a mammy, not a mummy

WHERE DO I FIT IN THE LINE

teta · 16/10/2012 11:43

I'm definitely not a yummy mummy,i'm just an old mummy who really doesn't understand mumsnet obsession with Boden.

Northumberlandlass · 16/10/2012 12:49

I have the odd bit of Boden (no crazy patterns, ALL bought in sales & Ebay).

Am I an idiot? Definitely.
Do I post on MN? Obviously
Am I a yummy mummy? hahahahaha er.... no

Do I give a fuck ? What do you think Wink

Dollydowser · 16/10/2012 12:52

I am wearing a Boden dress. I post on Mumsnet. I give myself a hard time and call myself many things but never do I call myself an idiot.
