What was your favourite MN thread of all time?

GetOrfMoiLand · 07/04/2011 11:36

I have just searched for it and can't bloody find it.

It was about 3 years ago, was started by cod and was something like 'what snazzy recipes did your mother cook in the 70s' or something.

It was hysterical.

I also loved the thread where we were invaded by the pram huns, Crap Tips (in classics but sadly useless as the links don't work), Shopping lists, "is that you UCM" and "Linda is a hospital administrator"

Also really loved the lefties threads during the election last year.

And my own "fuck I might be pregnant" saga Grin

As much as I love you I HATE you all

The first thread I ever read on MN was about the mum who was outraged her nanny was feeding the DC dried pasta. I thought I had entered a parallel universe and didn't come back to MN for a few months.
Would love to read it again, if anyone can find it, to see if it was as bonkers as I remember.

Grabaspoon · 07/04/2011 18:49

Haven't read the whole thread yet but off the top of my head.

Block of Poo
AIBU to take super soakers
The MNetter who said her dad had come in and heard her and DH having loud sex and what should she do - she said it was a wind up at the end of the thread.

KnottyLocks · 07/04/2011 18:47

Pag, that may have been TheSecondComing, although not 100% on that.

Pagwatch · 07/04/2011 18:44

Who was it that went swimming and sat by the pool blowing up arm band with her chuff on display?

There was a line when her dh ran at her shouting " WTF ! Your minge!" that makes me cry every time I think about it

KnottyLocks · 07/04/2011 18:37

Links you are my nemesis Bloody hilarious.

LetThereBeRock · 07/04/2011 18:17

The supersoaker thread

The Nanny pasta thread

The thread where the OP wanted her bridesmaids to wear huge hot pink dresses,and carry fairy wands. I'm still hoping she'll share the wedding pics with us.

Twigs and Pebbley shit was fun from beginning to end with a few detours thrown for good measure.

Fellatio's poncetastic Christmas thread was fab.

Thriller wedding dance thread..

And that Gary thread (I loved your haiku, MrsChemist, can't believe it was deleted )

There was some great poetry on a NPD thread that I can't track down.

caramelwaffle · 07/04/2011 17:24

Oh, and Garlic in my bum, thread.

I believed you, Incontina.

Poor. You. Grin

caramelwaffle · 07/04/2011 17:22

Space Time Continuum thread.

Garry thread.

BelleDameSanMerci and KnickersOnMyHead attend another MNetter's wedding thread.

Troll Topic thread.

ShowOfHands · 07/04/2011 17:12

I did. £12.99 from some shop or other. I wear it far too much.

Oblomov · 07/04/2011 17:06

ShirleyKnot mentioned one of my faves - the NCT woman, who said obnoxious things to her NCT group and couldn't work out why they were upset. 'Why have kids if your not going to look after them /i.e. work'. Got deleted. Shame. Was FANTASTIC.
Maryz mentioned my other fave, dh left 2 year old downstairs on her own for a millisecond, oh he is abusive ! = StewieGrifs, " I am a Canadian". Was Fab.

EduStudent · 07/04/2011 16:42

I know, Showy, it was just your descriptions that made it so...beautiful. Did you ever find a non toddler engulfing dress in the end?

Just read oohlaalaas offering. And cried Blush

ShowOfHands · 07/04/2011 16:12

Can I just point out that my search for a dress thread was serious. It wasn't supposed to be funny. Or my search for a replacement evil cat. Clearly me shopping is hilarious. I am very bad at it to be fair.

My favourite is the random acts of kindness thread. Makes me weep.

marmaladetwatkins · 07/04/2011 15:57

Yes it is in Classics.

Sometimes I think about Dillie? and hustler? and falure father when I am out on my own and I BURST out laughing Blush

MrsChemist · 07/04/2011 15:54

I liked the TripAdvisor one as well. Did that make it to classics?

oohlaalaa · 07/04/2011 15:47

This thread

FlaminGreatGallah · 07/04/2011 15:39

Ah I see Mike has already.

In that case I nominate Large Clay Cock and Tiny Wanker.

Pinkjenny · 07/04/2011 15:36

Booble plate

dinkystinky · 07/04/2011 15:34

BobbieWickham's thread where she got stuck in an all saints dress - couldnt figure out how to put it on or take it off - had me weeping with laughter

and the one where Pagwatch found a mystery vehicle on her drive
