The most shocking thing you've read on Mumsnet..

[PricklyPear1234]

Just that really.. (Kind of lighthearted/maybe not!)

Just read the OP's posts from beginning to end, and wept - What a wonderful, selfless, caring lady.

It actually became (in)famous as 'penis beaker' - but I would also have accepted 'todger tumbler' or 'nubbin schooner'

Rather than a particular thread, a pattern.

OPs saying 'I don't drive' after a long description of their complex set of personal problems that wouldn't exist if they could drive.

Poo Crumbs

On a serious note, posts on the sex board that are or verge on child sexual abuse and those clearly getting off on their stories involving children. I hope mumsnet has contacted the police about them.

The food threads where people seem proud of never feeling hungry and only consuming a coffee and and a salad all day. I’m always shocked at how many people seem to have disordered eating.

I don’t know how to share a thread so have copied and pasted this:

Neighbour bought a trampoline to look over our fence 301 replies

LazyJayne · 12/10/2022 03:45

“Have had issues with overly friendly neighbour since we moved in. The original divider between our back gardens was a low hedge, and she would come out and talk to us every single time we were out in the garden. And boy, can she talk. She also used to lift her DC over the hedge without asking to play with our DC (who is years older and not interested).

Eventually, we put up a 6ft fence on our side of the hedge. I’d tried to warm her up to the idea of this beforehand by saying we were thinking of getting a dog and needed a fence to keep it in.

When we put up the fence she initially made few jokey comments about how it was harder to talk to us now, but she solved this problem by placing a step on her side and continued to pop up whenever we were out in garden.

My husband then planted bamboo along the fence which shot up over the summer and is now about 8ft.

Last month, we saw from our bedroom window that a large trampoline had appeared in her garden. We assumed it was for her DC and thought nothing of it. However, they don’t use it, she does.

When I was out in the garden a few weeks ago, up she popped over the top of the bamboo, laughing hysterically, and shouting ‘see what I’ve had to resort to! hahaha!’ I said something along the lines of ‘oh yes haha, is that a trampoline for X’ and she said it was originally but he wasn’t interested so she’s going to use it for exercise instead.

So far all her exercises have coincided with us being out in the garden.

We’re now back at square one and whenever we’re out she appears over the bamboo, laughing and shouting.

My husband is very non confrontational and says the bamboo will keep growing and eventually she won’t be able to see over it, but I think this will take year as she must be hitting the 20ft mark at full jump height. We would also start losing light if we let it get that high.

WIBU to tell her directly to give us some privacy? Is there a gentle way to do it that won’t hurt her feelings that we’re missing?”

Edited: because I copied twice.

About 15 years ago I read about a poster who'd had a child with her very abusive long term partner. It was really distressing. When I questioned why she'd done this, given the history of abuse, I was attacked for it not by her, but by another poster and told I'd "probably no idea what abuse was about" but I did, first hand. I think I stayed off the site for a good 10 years as a direct consequence.

Luckey Buoy springs to mind!

Gosh this is amazing @FatherJackHackettsUnderpantsHamper.
i wonder if the poor lady ever got anywhere? Maybe a sol Voter would take it on a no win no fee type of basis if they thought she had a strong case? Or the info could be given to the police and let them investigate, possibly with a claim for compensation attached? I’ll be thinking about this for a while!

The OP who often washed their moon cup in the water that came through the toilet when flushing! Even public toilets 😱 After all the comments she did say she would stop doing this!

Lol. At This comment comming up under a discussion about American cheese

Oh my goodness, I’ve just read this for the first time, and I’m not ashamed to say my eyes are soggy.
A truly amazing and inspiring woman and her DH. Absolute stars 🌟🌟

Well thank fuck in more and more places choking someone is illegal.

Any man who finds it sexually arousing to choke a woman is a sick fuck, who should be in jail. And that includes your partners too.

Not any specific thread, but I'm always shocked at the folk who don't understand/cannot accept the concept of fact and opinion not being the same.

We can have multiple differences of opinion but we cannot change facts.

The man might be doing it because the woman finds it pleasant and asked him?

Of course clear boundaries need to be set at the outset.

(Not my thing, I'll hasten to add).

One that I can't forget is from Christmas a few years back. A woman kept finding women's jewelry in different places in her OH's car. Think the hidden ashtrays, etc. She shared pictures of some of it. It started out that she thought he might be cheating, but there were things she found that raised concerns over where and HOW he was getting the jewelry. The suggestion was there that he might be a serial killer. MNHQ deleted the thread as the OP was afraid she'd identified herself. Every year, about this time, I wonder what ever came of it, and if the OP is safe.

Wasnt it a milk bottle?

The threads that have made me laugh in horror:
The one about someone posting asking if anyone's DH "windmilled" their Willy.
Husband weeing in the milk bottle at the side of the bed at night.

Ghastly thread:
The man who pretended his wife was dying of cancer, they had one primary aged son son. A mumsnetter set up a justgiving page and people donated in their hundreds. All turned out to be totally fictional and I believe thread was removed.

So many stories on stately homes.

The poster who didn't see anything wrong with saying she didn't know whether she'd save her dog or her own child in a fire.

Some people don't own toothbrushes and don't make sure their DC brush their teeth.

I’ve only been on MN a year or so but my favourite ridiculous thread was the woman whose cat was stuck in their neighbours house. She had posted crab sticks and ice cubes through a gap in the window and then thought it was unreasonable when her neighbour wanted her to pay for damages.

ALittleTeawithmilk - This has made me hysterical! 🤣 I keep envisaging Hyacinth Bucket bobbing up and down over the fence on a trampoline!!

😱😱😱

@Random30 Are you trying to police what other women find sexually exciting? That you actually have any say on what another woman should be able to do in bed and if you don't agree with a certain sexual act, between two consenting adults, that it should automatically become banned?!
