On plastic chairs. Just me?

Please tell me it's not just me. It happened tonight at school parents meeting. Stood up after a nice chat with the maths teacher and there is it, the diamond shaped condensation patch of doom.

I nearly name changed because i am very embarrassed, but fuck it.

No, but i was trying too hard to style it the fuck out to notice anyones reactions. They were probably all in the staffroom giving it "so, how many minge mists tonight then"

Parents evening again tonight. I threw my jacket on every chair i sat down on and windered if any of the teachers had seen this thread and knew what i was trying to avoid.

This thread has been very funny and also reassuring!

No longer will I shy away from my fanny fog / beaver breath / muff mist Grin

It will be easy to identify MNetters from the look and proud grin Grin, or the twist and slide!

Just caught up. Still absolutely awesome. Nearly woke DH up as I was laughing so much I started coughing! Whoops.

ZombieNightOwl · 13/11/2016 22:36

Thank fuck I'm not the only one! Thought it was just because I was so fat! Most embarrassing time was a hot day, wearing cropped jeans and watching my daughters Gym gala! I was so embarrassed I ended up standing for the whole second half at the sides "to get a better view!"

donajimena · 13/11/2016 19:46

I'm also a bit too slim so the angle sitting thing stops my buttocks from hurting!

donajimena · 13/11/2016 19:44

I've been pondering this.. I realised today whilst seated that I don't actually sit on chairs in the way a lot of people may.
I'm extremely tall so in order to feel comfortable I tend to sit at an angle. Hard to describe but I don't plonk my nethers directly on the seat. Purely physiology but it might explain why some people don't 'suffer' ?

knickerbockerglory Is your NN in honour of the thread?

knickerbockerglory · 13/11/2016 13:59

Hilarious and comforting!

SapphireStrange · 13/11/2016 11:54

Elendon, I don't drink, thanks all the same.

Can't get any work done knowing this Thread of Genius is still rumbling on.

I sat on a plastic chair yesterday....I thought of this thread and stood back up!

Well, we know it went viral because journalists across the UK were gasping "Oh, thank FUCK it's not just me!" As of Monday morning, women in meetings across the nation will be faced with yet another anatomy-related dilemma: whether to wriggle on rising from the chair, in hopes of erasing the tell-tale diamond of snatch steam, or to stand up confidently like a professional, knowing everyone else read the article and might be checking the leatherette.

Being a woman gets tougher by the day ...

iwouldgoouttonight · 12/11/2016 20:47

I love you all.

Really thought this only happened to me. DS has continence issues which we often discuss at parents evenings, and then I get up and leave the inevitable diamond fanny patch and I always imagine the teachers muttering after we've left about how it's obviously hereditary.

WankingMonkey · 12/11/2016 14:47

Husband says he gets arse mist also. After laughing at me for 10 minutes asking why I was asking Blush

QueenMortificado · 12/11/2016 14:31

Can't believe this has gone viral!

tiej · 12/11/2016 13:35

Olympia are you really the queen?

theaveragewife · 12/11/2016 13:09

tiej she can't vomit, for she has no bodily functions or secretions that may be considered grim.

tiej · 12/11/2016 13:07

Olympia, are you OK? have you stopped vomiting?

Nopoocrumbshere · 12/11/2016 12:53

Haha that's exactly what I do.Grin

OhtoblazeswithElvira · 12/11/2016 12:02

Fear not Olivia, for it is not sweat, but condensation.

Olympiathequeen · 12/11/2016 10:12

No, never! Never even heard of this! I can't imagine it unless I wasn't wearing pants and even then probably not. I'd have to be naked to leave marks on the chair. That's so grim to think of sitting in a chair where someone's funny had sweated. Going to vomit Shock
