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

Anyone remember the one where mn were testing a thread for someone and ended it then everyone else came on and started doing < triptych > etc. at the end of sentences and it got very very silly?

Psammead · 07/04/2011 13:10

One of the first threads I read was on AIBU and was about a woman outraged because her cleaner kept piling up her magazines instead of spreading them out attractively. Anyone remember that one?

I remember howling at bag'o mash when she posted it.

GetOrf, have just re-read the bag o'mash thread - it's still funny Grin

TrillianAstra · 07/04/2011 13:07

cattleprod that was ShowOfHands looking for a maxi dress I think, it was wonderful.

AmazingBouncingFerret · 07/04/2011 13:05

TunaPastaGate reminds me of the poster that was outraged that her nanny? CM? gave her DC M&S raviolli for lunch instead of homemade.

cocolepew · 07/04/2011 13:03

The Thriller wedding dance.

FlamingJamie · 07/04/2011 13:02

Cattleprod - it may have been hully and her "plain blue dress" search

omnishambles · 07/04/2011 13:01

Mine involved thunderduck and her poinsettia - hilarious. In chat though and so sadly passed.

Also pirate sex and warhammer.

JarethTheGoblinKing · 07/04/2011 12:59

And there was one in style and beauty where one of the MN regulars who doesn't usually venture into that topic was looking for a long draped dress. The way she described her search was hilarious! Can't remember who it was though...

Cattleprod · 07/04/2011 12:55

The one where a woman had some old broken sex toys, and wasn't sure if they were allowed to go to landfill.......

BOF's pouffe - 'I'm sorry, DD's shat on it!!'

The smug thread was lovely - it's where SycamoreTree became vile!

poorbuthappy · 07/04/2011 12:50

I post the same thing on these types of thread...

Olympic horses, and still no one has ever found it. I remember roaring about a poodle going round the baggage reclaim (note: it was the description which was funny, not the general premise of a dog going round and round and round...)

Also what happened with the poster who had to do the choreographed dance at her mums wedding? Was it her mums wedding? I can't remember, although I think it was Thriller...

Also the thread about the eptopic preg where MN saved that woman's life...was brilliant.

BringBackGoingForGold · 07/04/2011 12:47

Psammead, the filthy text one must have been hilarious!

Iklboo · 07/04/2011 12:47

Poor Woofa & having his dingle-dangles removed. I cried laughing at that one.
