I learned about it when googling the word "snark." As the PP's comment proves, DCUM is the Holy Grail of snark. |
I was looking for a nanny in 2001/2002. |
Sorry - no nanny posts. You need to go to the OTHER DCUM for that... |
Googling about schools and the Private/Independent forum popped up....this was 3 years ago and still here. |
Googled for a recommendations on a specific daycare. Still here 7 years later. I would never ever admit it in "real" life. |
I ran a search on reviews of certain private and public schools in the area, and a whole bunch of links to threads here came up.
I followed the links and honestly, wish I had never done so. |
Googled TTC information and found this site. I live in the DC area and realized it's a local forum. Fell into the worm hole a few years ago and haven't been able to leave! |
+1 in 2003 |
I love you! |
I googled a question about carbs and one of the questions from this site came up.....been hooked ever since. |
Similar - another VA mom group talked about the "mean girls" on DCUM - kind of like eating chips, you get sucked in. |
article in the WaPo years ago. |
A satire parenting blog posted that some thread on here was showing just how awful some moms/parents can be. That was probably 2013 or so. I left that blog, but I come here more than I'll admit to. |
OMG I was looking for a nanny and asked my neighbor. Hooked ! |
You sound crazy. |
