What was your favourite MN thread of all time?

269 replies

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

What was the one that coined the phrase "chavspirational"?

I stil want some purple Le Creuset, and I don't care if it's not really posh.

the clay cock was really funny and the Penguin thread but the one about the mum who had 4 of here own kids in bed and then was left with her friends tiy baby and no formula was brilliant. everyone on that thread was great.

Supersoaker thread

Bucharest · 07/04/2011 13:33

Oh yes, Slither,I'd forgotten that!

MrsChemist · 07/04/2011 13:31

I believed you incontenentia Smile

I think the supersoaker thread is still around

cybbo · 07/04/2011 13:30

I guffawed and banged my head on desk in equal measure at SuperSoaker thread

remember that?

NowPlease · 07/04/2011 13:30

getorf can you find that zeroes thread? - I can't.

[Sad]

TheCrackFox · 07/04/2011 13:29

Amateur Arse doctor was stangley compelling.

misdee · 07/04/2011 13:26

ballsofsteels in-law threads. i applaud that lady!

IncontinentiaBotox · 07/04/2011 13:25

Um, the thread about the garlic up the arse for threadworm was TRUE

I swear it

I still tingle when I think about it

TheCrackFox · 07/04/2011 13:25

Linda is a hospital administrator - i loved that thread, just so funny.

Another really good trolling thread was something like "how dare my MIL criticise my DD's name". Everyone piled in and agreed that the MIL was out of order, the OP didn't reveal for about 10 pages that the name was "Slither".

sis · 07/04/2011 13:24

4 pages in and no mention of mad tablecloth lady?!

SleepyCaz · 07/04/2011 13:24

The plate stuck down the back of the bog. Was that the bobble plate one?

Hilarious!!

PoledrathePissedOffFairy · 07/04/2011 13:23

Oh god, there#'s someone called kittylouise posting on the snazzy thread - who came up with that as a username??

MrsChemist · 07/04/2011 13:23

And garlic up the arse. Even though many people thought it wasn't true, it was still bloody hilarious.

MrsChemist · 07/04/2011 13:22

Oh and I think it was Reality that linked to a thread recently where someone had called their DD Slithery Ann.

MikeRotch · 07/04/2011 13:22

i bumped it

MrsChemist · 07/04/2011 13:22

The grammer police thread when we were invaded by Bounty.

One that's in classics (I think) where someone was ranting that we were all stuck up lizard bitches.

The pomander thread.

The one about the nanny giving the child ready made pasta.

The one about the child taking a supersoaker to a picnic.

No Mike - have looked under 'snazzy' and it isn't there. Mind you you probably typed it wrong Wink

Didn't you find it last year for the MNHQ anniversart fave threads?

OP posts:
Bucharest · 07/04/2011 13:17

The poo on pouffe one.

Lots of the cookery ones. (or that start out as such)

Another personal fave is the one with the irate dad who wanted to sue god know's who because he had trapped his daughter's hand in a plane toilet door, but it was somehow everyone else's fault?

NowPlease · 07/04/2011 13:15

There was a weird one where the OP was moaning that non of the school mummies would talk to her and her DH said it was because everyone was jealous that their DS was so good-looking.

It was all strange in it'self, but went really random and hysterically funny further down the page cos one poster had a broken phone and couldn't post "o"s so had to use a zero instead.

I dont know how to find it again though?
