The eagle has landed.

Perhaps not classic, but an honorable mention

PurpleEglu · 16/01/2010 15:28

Definitely the garlic one

JollyPirate · 16/01/2010 14:59

Way back but there was a wind up thread about a MNers husband who had a fantasy about kitchen equipment. Thread title was "well it's just not normal is it". Was way back and I laughed myself silly.

in my pants

heQet · 14/01/2010 22:28

Oh yes, I second the garlic one! here

caramelwaffle · 14/01/2010 22:26

IncontinentiaBotox - nevergooglegarlicbutter or Garlic in my bottom.

AIBU - Jan 2010

Or is it far too rude

CiderIUpAndSetIFree · 22/12/2009 16:45

I nominate this one:

Can we have a thread about ways in which your partner initiates sexual intercourse

Was this one of the original jack-russelling threads?

There was one about TOAST catalogue models that was really funny until it suddenly turned sour. I cannot find it anymore so assume it was on Chat. I am pretty sure the name of the thread was just "TOAST".

An oldie but a goody I thought, lots of funny things in it, I especially loved the claim that carrying a bottle of water around meant you were obviously pregnant because pregnant women drink a lot...

There was a thread a year or so ago called 'Competitive Northernisms' or 'Northern Top Trumps' or some such, that was just a bunch of us northern MNers competitively firing northernisms at each other. It were great (see what I did there?) Would you be able to extract it from the Chat archives and put it in here, or is it really and truly dead?

drlovesmincepies · 01/12/2009 23:19

this one please the name change thread.

JustAnotherManicMummy · 24/10/2009 00:38

Bounty night

MNHQ I think it is very remiss of you not to have this in classics . Please would you take steps to rectify as it has been referred to several times recently in a nostalgic fashion.

Many thanks

PS "Slutty wants to bang you" is still in chat and it will disappear unless it is preserved for posterity. I know you were busy with Gordon's biccies around that time but it has been 10 days now and you never write, never phone... you don't send me flowers anymore

squeaver's trip to her parents opens the floodgates for MNers around the world

JustAnotherManicMummy · 13/10/2009 21:20

May I nominate this thread please.

Started with emailing filth to the PTA, has quickly desended into spam emails and Mr Elvis of Nigeria. Is most amusing.

BennyAndJoon · 23/08/2009 21:16

Please please please put this in clasics. It isn't funny - but it shows what MN really can be worth, i.e. a life

I was just coming to nominate the same thread,Vitally Important Housekeeping Tip - or things I learned the hard way

DailyMailIsFarFromPerfect · 21/08/2009 18:58

\link{http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/other_subjects/811037-Vitally-Important-Housekeeping-Tip-or-things -I-learned-the-hard?pg=1 is this still the place for new nominations...cos this one is a good one}

WildSeahorses · 19/08/2009 13:38

For all the zombie plan obsessives out there, please can we have this thread in classics

FritesMenthe · 16/08/2009 09:31

what do you do with mangoes/

MyNameisJane · 11/08/2009 19:21

This one is still in it's infancy but I like how it's taken a turn towards krakens and judginess

HecatesTwopenceworth · 09/08/2009 09:39

popsycal · 17/07/2009 21:04
