As in... tickled you.. have a wry inwards smile.. dare I say it have a silent chuckle? I don’t drink tea and so have never spat it out Smile

There are tons... one from this week is from a thread where the teenagers had drunk all the milk at 2am leaving none for the OPs morning tea. What tickled me was a different poster empathising and saying that in a different thread the other OP had retaliated by “aggressively hoovering” outside their teen’s bedroom door.

Aggressively hoovering. Love it.

When @JesusInTheCabbageVan posted I am here my child at 7.49pm (or was it 6?)

There was one the other day about how Canesten for athletes foot is the same as Canesten for thrush and someone suggested they should market it as Hoof and Foof. Grin

There was a thread a while ago about sexual predilections ( think it may have been posters colleague). Which warranted a post of "fucking shit in a Pyrex dish" as a future statement of incredulation.

Makes me smile when I use it mentally. Not brave enough to say it out loud.

That post earlier of the man with a penis like a chipolata was very funny.

babbaloushka · 11/02/2021 23:15

Said her exBF would curl up like an anaemic fetus after sex.

The one where the OP was hassled getting ready to go in to the swimming baths with her DC. DH was already in the pool.

OP walked out pool side with DC where her husband hissed at her across the pool..

Julie.. your minge!!!!

She had walked out with no bottom half on.

It stuck in my head and every time I think of it I crack up.

Disclaimer - her name may not have been Julie.

@whereisthejoy

Hilarious thread someone started about how awful they looked in their passport photo - a mum came along and said her baby looked like a criminal potato in his Grin that absolutely killed me (maybe because we had just had our then 6 month old's passport pic done and I could apply the same description to that!)
Criminal potato 🤣🤣🤣

There’s a fantastic thread in classics about the OP who had a couple of people shagging in the hedge at the bottom of her garden at night. After lot’s of suggestions of appropriate playlists, the OP started up one song and the neighbours complained about the noise. She then told them the reason and they got very involved in the whole saga trying to work out who the couple were, etc. A number of poster’s said it might actually be badgers or fox’s or some other creatures and the OP said something like I’ve never heard of a badger who asks for a finger up the bum. 🤣

Thank you for this! I’m in bed trying to stifle my laughter and not wake the toddler!

Snooks1971 · 11/02/2021 23:19

Thank you everyone, I keep rereading your posts, I remember so many (but had forgotten) and the new ones too! Sooo need a laugh x

"Who are you? The Grammer Police? [sic]"

And the thread asking what to do with three mangoes, and quick as a flash someone hecate says "juggle them" Grin
OP was not amused in any way!

I think the potato baby may have been mine Blush
DS looked like a potato until he was about two, poor soul.

barbedwired · 11/02/2021 23:20

I think it was a do you believe in god thread.
Some one replied, Jesus loves you and everyone else thinks you're a cunt.

Thickos on Trip advisor - a few posts in someone said she thought Thickos was a Greek island 😂

In response to the woman who screamed in the Sisting chapel someone said "have you considered a visit to the wailing wall?"

wellthatsunusual · 11/02/2021 23:24

Someone said a few months ago that Dominic Raab looks like he would jump out of bed and do karate chops after sex. I can't look at him on TV without picturing it. Which is, frankly, traumatic.

showmethegin · 11/02/2021 23:24

SISTINE!

This is brilliant

Oh god, I actually screenshot some of my favourite MN replies. This one is from October 2019 on a thread where a lady complained her partner went mental at her for farting in front of him, and these two replies had me dying of laughter. I'll even tag the posters in for acknowledgement! @ilovetolurk @whoisitnowralph

There was a thread ages ago in Baby Names where the OP asked if there were any names that Hugo could be short for. There were some hilarious responses - Hugoesthere, Hugotthelove, Hugoslavia and Hughgogirl were my favourites Grin - but the OP didn't appreciate them and got a bit stroppy and then flounced, whereupon someone quipped 'are you still there OP or did Hugoaway?'. It still makes me laugh now.

VetOnCall · 11/02/2021 23:36

*Hugogirl, not Hughgogirl!

Snooks1971 · 11/02/2021 23:37

@DaftSkunk

There was a thread where a poster was asking for reviews on a pram, and then replied to their own thread a year later 😂
Yes! Also in Classics I think??
