It’s the acronyms that get me, I don’t think I’ve seen any other website that uses them as much as mumsnet does. Here are some choice excerpts from their official list.


Like do these things really need acronyms as opposed to just typing normally? That last one for instance, you’re literally one character off just using the full word - which along with acronyms of 6 or more characters rather defeats the point of acronyms in the first place. As does having acronyms that have multiple meanings.

yeah a friend whose helping a relative move to the uk for work was just flatly told by metrobank that the relative couldn’t open an account because she doesn’t speak english (friend was acting as interpreter)

asked to get it in writing but the manager just said “it’s in our terms and conditions”

Aw gently caress my passport's up for renewal as well. Probably too late to get a burgundy one now, I'm going to feel a deep sense of shame at having a blue passport.
