The Official TFK Father's Issues Thread. I don't know how they do it

[myboyblue]

Happy to give that a critlcal 5th like.

Proof positive you should never take the monitor out of the room

[flattythehurdler]

Baby monitors are up there with the leaf blower as the most pointless thing ever invented.
If they’re quiet, they’re either asleep or dead.
If they’re properly crying, unless you live in a mansion, you’ll hear them anyway

[Fagan_ODowd]

You live in a mansion

I love checking in on this thread in the morning to see what minor ailment has cost a tfk Dad 15 minutes sleep the previous night. This morning the child who ate stale biscuits.

[flattythehurdler]

You could hear mine crying in the next district.
And I don’t.
I live in a townhouse.

[Fagan_ODowd]

Don’t be silly, that’s a mansion by any reasonable standard.

[Fagan_ODowd]

@flattythehurdler

What is?

Your house, what do you think we’re talking about?

[farmerinthecity]

I live above a bowling alley.

And below another bowling alley.

[flattythehurdler]

As usual, I have no response that can’t be bent to make me look like a prick.

And Fagan might hear them crying from outside.

I think FOAD is the response you’re looking for

Its the video ones I was referring to Flatty. Its when they’re quiet is when they’re at their most dangerous.

Dont feel bad for being better than others Flatty.

I’m sure Joseph fritzel would find himself nodding his head in agreement.

So you live in what might reasonably be considered to be a mansion but you don’t want to admit it.

[flattythehurdler]

Would FOAD cover it?

If you visualise these posters all sitting round a table eating cup cakes and drinking frothy coffee you get even more enjoyment from their little exchanges.

Ms Locke was asked by her SIL to get a baby monitor as a gift to their new born as the one from Aldi that they got wasn’t working/good enough. Asked her where was suggested to her and she said Mothercare. Told her she’ll get fleeced but she didn’t want to disappoint.

She’s now €110 lighter. I explained that she got mugged off, good and proper and she said she now truly knows the meaning of that saying.

As an aside her bro and SIL live in an apartment in leafy north Dublin

[balbec]

But he is living in a kip in Manchester. You on the other hand live on the Fingal Riviera.

As you well know, new parents are a fertile ground for these cunts. Those Angel Care ones with the heartrate monitor are the biggest sham going. However, peace of mind doesn’t come cheap to new parents and they’ll all learn in their own time.
