    So this "mumsnet"

    I have heard several mentions of this website in the news as of late as if they are some sort of authority on anything, now call me a cynic but to me it's nothing but a collection of dribbling knocked up slappers who should be spending the fucking day cleaning the house and not online talking about wedding dresses.

    Or am I just too cynical?

    I'm not always this cynical. I am usually worse...

    Speaking as a mother. Roughly translated to "talking out of my arse".

    Nail, head. What 'Care in the Community' started, the internet completed.

    Fukayama was right: history has indeed come to an end, though not through any triumph of ideals. It's been smothered under a tsunami of electronically-mediated dribbling and outright cretinry.

    The only thing left for a man of any moral cultivation or decency is to construct his own doomsday device and do to humanity what a loving God should have done around 1973.
    We need people who look to the stars, holding the nation and the world in their hearts but at the same time we need down-to-earth people who can do serious and trying work.

    In a definite sense, a country's power and prestige isn't only a reflection of its economic power but also a reflection of its people's quality and morality. Moreover, I think the latter is actually more important in the long-term.

    Watch yourself though, they may be 'mums', but they are militant (and, I believe litigious) cunts with it. Cross them at your peril.

    I hate that phrase like the fact you weren't smart enough to have it scraped out in the early days means your say is worth twice anyone elses

    My dear chap, one can never be too cynical!

    I hear all the members of mumsnet beat their children nightly with bamboo sticks.
