The hatred and bullying of Jack on that website baffles me, ok she might not always be 100% truthful, but they take it so personally like she's stolen their cycle obsessed six figure earning husband.

I read this when I was up in the night with the baby, yeah it sounded a bit suspicious as he’d cheated before BUT everyone on there goes straight into hysterics!

People were suggesting (at nearly midnight) that she should get a cab to his work to see if he was there. Then when she said she had a toddler and a baby, some people were saying go anyway and take them (?!) and others were saying send a note in a taxi and ask the driver to pass it to him if he’s there 😂

And after she got the poor guy to take selfies of himself at work of which he sent multiple they were still goading her saying they were probably taken at a different time or he's only gone into work as he was about to be caught out etc. Mental.

I assume Cod is part of the ‘hierarchy’ who can be as bloody rude as they want and get away with it because they‘ve been there a long time and everyone thinks they’re ‘so funny’ and ‘tell it like it is’. Much like AnyFucker and Bluntness.

I got really worried some months ago when I was reading as I actually agreed with what Bluntness was saying 😱. Either one of us must have been having a brain fart.
 
Ah a good bun fight going on in AIBU right now about ugly women. Someone compaining that good looking women need to be responsible for her lack of self esteem.

This type of thread intrigues me, they're as popular, almost, as the 'show us your wealth' threads.

Does anyone else think the place has really changed since the first lockdown? I know that AIBU was always a shitshow but the rest of the site was interesting, tolerant and you could have a really good read/conversation about stuff. It's like the floodgates opened and a mass of stirrers and bitter nasties waded in. Every section is oozing with arguments and disagreements for the sake of it. There's no nuance or understanding of anything, it's as if the general IQ got flushed down the toilet. It reminds me now of a tabloid comments section.

It’s never been sunshine and roses on there. Edited to say there has always been unpleasant ganging up and tragic cliques. I preferred it when the site got bigger. Fewer ‘oh helloos’ from the FB groups. Look at my house in the snow. Of duck off you big show off.
