I love it when a new CF story appears.

The cheek of people always fascinates me!!!!

I love it when someone posts their spending and asks for help with a budget. I love how different we all are in what we prioritise (or to put it another way, I’m nosey).

Can't resist a mother in law horror story 🙊

JabbaTheBeachHut · 19/08/2024 23:42

The 'How old do I look?' threads

But only because the replies will range from 25 to 58 🙄🤣

Most of the threads on style and beauty are interesting and full of inspiration for some new clothes.
I don't need much persuasion to buy new clothes..Smile

Gardening. Although it has become rather frustrating of late with all the 'what plant is this?' questions being answered by people with an unreliable app on their phone rather than a pair of horticulturally-experienced eyes, and there's been a slew of obvious AI replies just lately as well.

I quite like the AMA section as well.

A particularly bad CF gets their comeuppance. I suspect that some of these threads are fictional, but I don’t really
mind.

disorganisedbadchaos · 19/08/2024 23:51

The creepy woo/ghost tale ones

BrieHugger · 19/08/2024 23:52

Holidays and weddings, especially if there’s a CF in the mix.

I suspect the odd one might be real, but perhaps I'm too over optimistic? 🤭

I love a good parking or CF thread.

I also like the 'how old do I look' threads for a similar reason to JabbaTheBeachHut. Replies will invariably range from 'older than planet Earth' to '8, max'.

I know you didn't ask this but I hate eye colour threads. Totally pointless and dull.

Topseyt123 · 20/08/2024 01:00

A good old thread about farting.

I've also seen some corkers of threads about the twee euphemisms that people use instead of just calling a fart.

maybelou · 20/08/2024 02:00

I really love the threads that pop up usually on a Sunday that are just 'what's happening j your house right now' - I find them oddly comforting in a 'none of us are alone in this world' kind of way 😁

I like hygiene ones washing towels and bodies such a variation.

Pawsfourtimrstwo · 20/08/2024 03:41

I like the philosophical ones where you can analyse a theory or certain behaviour to death to an extent that you would not or could not do in rl!

I am a sucker for a post a picture of your cat 🐈‍⬛.

miredo · 20/08/2024 07:35

I love threads about seasons, particularly autumn ones. The ones that start 'Happy September! What do you like about autumn?' I like a nice calm thread about autumnal decor, darker nights and slow cookers.
