Anyone got a link to it? 😂 I can't find it

Not for my, just vulgar and crass.

KittyCollar · 22/04/2024 08:53

Just read it. No, not remotely funny. (Not my sense of humour)

PeatandDieselfan · 21/04/2024 21:15

but the farted bit was really bizarrely placed and was funny, especially as you don't really fart when you are having a disagreement

Yeah I remember laughing out loud, it just was so unexpected, even though you knew it had to be a typo, it sounded like she could fart at will and didn't consider it to be an unusual thing to admit to.

It wasn’t a typo. She said she had done kind of digestive issue and got gassy when stressed or something. I can’t remember fully and can’t be bothered reading it again.

I’ve just had a read through it again😂😂 it’s the fact that the OP just carried on with her mundane story and came back with updates. She really didn’t understand why everyone was commenting on that particular bit. Bless her, I wonder how she’s doing

Yes that’s what made me laugh. She employed the same “ just ignore it” approach to a typo fart as many people adopt for a real fart.

It was very funny. You’d have to not have a sense of humour - and what made it even funnier was that the OP didn’t really acknowledge how funny it was BUT did later mention she had IBS - all of which obviously left one vaguely wondering if it hadn’t been a typo at all!

Felt very sorry for the guy involved with dll those uptight martial arts enthusiasts.

Just me that found it funny then 😂

No! I was helpless with laughter, tears streaming, the works! 😂

No, made me laugh out loud! But I think farting IS funny sadly.

I never saw that thread but OMG.

I would love to know where they both are now…..

OnHerSolidFoundations · 22/04/2024 06:47

Guess she's dumped him by now. That was 6 yrs ago.

CellophaneFlower · 22/04/2024 06:37

Is it just me that pictures the bf as Ethan Krum from The Tourist 🤔😂

Yep. Shame really, classics used to be full of genuine posts.

Agreed. It's been interesting, watching the general change in sense of humour over the years. There's a study in there somewhere.

surreysarah · 22/04/2024 04:42

Snapped and farted gets me every time. Currently in hysterics after reading this thread!😂

Josette77 · 22/04/2024 03:39

That thread is one of my favorites!

I will read it on my death bed so I laugh.

I liked the poster who thought that because Harry can be short for the name Harold that Barry was short for Barold. Still makes me laugh now. I think someone has Barold as their user name.

There's an Animal Crossing character called Barold.

HoobleDooble · 22/04/2024 01:39

All I know is that, thanks to MN, I can't see hear or speak the words 'Lemon Drizzle' without adding a silent 'Bitch' on the end. Pom Bears, rinse mince and javelin arse still make me smile.

SuzetteDeFarcey · 22/04/2024 01:27

I thought at first it was snapped and shouted. But then you have to ask why would autocorrect change shouted to farted?

It’s not meant to be an autocorrect fail, just an unnecessary detail.

SwordToFlamethrower · 22/04/2024 00:48

I woke the baby up laughing at it!!!!! Husband is furious!

tinkerbellesslagoon · 22/04/2024 00:44

Even without the ‘snapped and farted’ bit it’s pretty bonkers

Biggybigbiggles · 22/04/2024 00:35

I just read it for the first time and full on laughed out loud 😂

Imbusytodaysorry · 22/04/2024 00:28

I’ve just read it.
I haven’t laughed so much in ages

I think the OP did mean to say what she said “she snapped and farted “

SnowFrogJelly · 22/04/2024 00:23

Barry is short for Balonz

SnowFrogJelly · 22/04/2024 00:23

Really? There were back in the day, but I rarely see a very funny thread now.

The rozzers are coming was v funny

Surely Barry is short for Benry?! Grin
