They are currently going all armchair detective over those four young lads missing in Snowdonia, posting complete untruths mostly. It reminds me of the Nicola Bulley threads there. I live in North Wales and people go missing in Snowdonia often, sometimes they turn up alive sometimes they don’t. The weather can change in a heartbeat especially at this time of year and the most obvious explanation is that they’re inexperienced and have misjudged their surroundings.
Might have known they'd all be slavering and dooming over that situation. Poor boys.
 
'Hiding a surgical abortion' is a prime example of why I hate the mumsnet acronyms with a passion. I spent the whole time reading it like 😲 wondering why the duck someone was posting about having sex with their brother and then having an abortion. Only to discover that the poster was using DB to mean dear boyfriend

Unless it's just me who got confused and everyone would automatically know they meant boyfriend when it normally means brother haha

Nah, MN protocol dictates use of DP for that.
 
Great one in AIBU about a woman who's had the Police looking for her. A few posters have pointed out it could be a death notice, but thats not stopped the usual over invested hanging on for updates. Someone has called it out half way through but other poster appears to think they're owed an update. It's all a bit batshit.
 
That Redtoothbrush’s husband sounds bloody insufferable, plotting maps and expertly speculating about caves and water levels. She’s about the same ‘My DH says…’ as though we must all listen in awe to his expertise!
At least she's found something to distract her from being a world authority on Iceland, volcanoes, Brexit, the economy, UK politics, US politics, the war in Gaza, the war in Ukraine, nuclear weapons, education, feminism, aviation and covid. Woman must spend about 19 hours a day on Twitter to reach that level of expertise.
