I just had a massive salad

I'm on holiday and had a massive salad. I couldn't finish it.

What MN cliche have you done today?

This has got to be a reverse 🙄

I think you're probably missing the point....it's an MN cliche that a salad makes you full. So the OP is asking (tongue in cheek) what MN cliches we can all think of.

eastiseastwestiswest · 01/10/2023 20:32

Oh I've just realised you meant that as one of the cliches lol sorry...as you were 🤣

I LTB and I'm breastfeeding in public

And my toddler had dressed crab with cucumber, mango, raspberries and home made flat bread for lunch

I’ve moved to a very old house and discovered a door in the kitchen floor - we have a cellar that’s not on the plans. Should I go down there?

I set up an account to find new Mum friends. Met a lovely lady and her daughter.
I gave lovely lady the address of a family party and said bring your daughter (to the slaughter). Gave her a name of a dead relative then fucked off and blocked her.
See? All true 🤔

Then, because I was such a nob, I went home and swirled my bits in a beaker whilst yelling at the neighbours that their dog shit stinks and called the RSPCA reporting an XL Bully even though I know a chavacock when I see one.

I haven't had any dinner yet as my chicken bones haven't grown and I don't have a lettuce thanks to the other neighbour blocking my gate so Ocado couldn't get in.

It's been a right old day!

Cooked a chicken that feeds 7 (it didn't) and have enough leftovers for 40 days (three lunches if I'm lucky).
It was a MN chicken (from Sains)!

Have you got a torch with batteries that will die when you get into the cellar then when you shake the torch they'll illuminate What Is Down There for 4 seconds before dying again?

Does your cellar have stairs that lead you to the top of the house , 'cos if something is chasing you , don't run out , run up .

Have you got a floaty chiffony nightie and high heeled slippers ?

Are you the youngest and prettiest in the house ?
Can you say "Oh look there's nothing to worry about , see................oh "

Can you wait till Hallowe'en to explore ?

Is the A SAFE ?

Free range?

HoogahToogah · 01/10/2023 20:55

I blocked someone because they slightly annoyed me, even though i have to see them everyday

adriftabroad · 01/10/2023 20:57

meant gently... do you have anger issues?

I make a huge salad for the one day per week I work outside of the home. A huge, round, sort of ice bowl sized? Plastic dish with about three bags of salad leaves in it. Olives, avocado, some sort of meat alterative, olive oil or mayo, seeds, pasta or rice, anything else I can think to put in it. Delicious and much more interesting than other things I may take to work for lunch. The only downside is it takes me my whole half an hour break in which to eat it!

HoogahToogah · 01/10/2023 20:59

I was house hunting on Rightmove. Saw a right state of one and my first thought was to immediately tell loads of strangers to look at it

<sharp intake of breath>

You allow your toddler to eat fruit and bread? Empty, empty calories. You might as well let her eat cereal.

PurpleChrayne · 01/10/2023 21:07

I did a tinkly laugh.

Loafbeginsat60 · 01/10/2023 21:08

Cleaned all morning even the skirting boards!

Made soup and slow cooked curry

Went for a really nice walk around castle / woods

And I didn't post any of it on Facebook ! In fact I didn't take any photos because I left my phone in the car 😮

You’re so close, you’re practically psychic!
I have a head torch, a crowbar and a rolled up newspaper.
I look quite like Bett (the Rovers landlady from Coronation St) and I have my curlers in and I am wearing a leopard skin print negligee, so if anything is down there it’ll be more scared of me than I am of it!

I had anal sex at Center Parcs.

I’ve just spat my tea out - this thread is so funny.

I went to a 6am spin class and then did a 10 mile run (the start time and length of run is crucial to the story)
