The long lasting chicken meal and other MN legends [light hearted]

[Thisismyfinesthour]

Most MN know that a chicken can feed a family of 6 over several meals. What is your record?
Our chicken fed 8 of us when the kids were young for two meals. We sent it to the chip shop after the stove broke down.😀
Other MN legends - washing being darked on because it was left out overnight.
Any that you've heard on MN inthe respect if your heard them said irl you know the speaker is an MNer?

How rare ,so you didn't get the outraged joy suckers demanding the fun stop ??

Showing up to remind about the tiny Korean woman in the garden.

Omg thanks for the link to the *trex shouted at me in the super market " I've not had a good laugh for ages.
However there is talking of a Sharon and Asda and and starting at fruit and veg and throwing wine down the wall ? But the kinks in that thread dont work.

Oh the days when people were allowed to be silly on here

@InconsideratelyThoughtful @PinkNailPolish2026 what the thread refered to the t rad one ?

It was genuinely fun. I can’t even remember the premise now, I think it was that someone had come back to the wall of her listed home being partially demolished, it meandered all over the place, the OP’s Spanish grandmother turned up, there was a mysterious Chinese lady, we were on tenterhooks…

Mitmoo was the super soaker thread I think? Which poster did her name in a thread out of the flower emoji?

My finger did hover over the toggle 😜

They clean it in the dishwasher! It sterilises, after all.

I made that up. But people do put their cat bowls in the dishwasher. Yuk!

The one where the poster meant to call her toddler a whiny tinker and actually said tiny wanker instead- I think it was in a full GP waiting room 🤣

No is a complete sentence.

So many

fat balls
Terrys bulge
chicken
penis beaker
cancel the cheque

wasn’t there a spit cup by the bed as well , and someone’s dh drank it

or was that part of penis beaker

Lemon drizzle bitch was brilliant - PTA member complained bitterly about an OP’s LDC (I think this sold very quickly at a school fete, unlike PTA bitch’s offering)

Bupcakesandcunting’s itchy vag, which she did try to name change for

I can’t remember the poster, but the bollicle was very funny

Anything by the incredible late CatThiefKeith 💔

The Suzi Quattro comment was gold

Also someone who had a haircut who said they looked like Richard III??

😂 Very funny

That pic of Terry Wogan gets me every time

😅
His little face

The lady who asked for pram/pushchair recommendations for flying (I think it was) and ended up replying to herself with advice quite a while after as there were no other suggestions.

Someone pointed out…you do know you are replying to yourself!

Fat balls really tickled me as did Suzy Quatros fat nan!

The drug addicted baby made me cry!

Ah yes, I say “are you on glue” sometimes!

That show pineapple had me doubled over in laughter.

For weeks.

This one in the things children say made me laugh until the tears rolled down my cheeks and I couldn't catch my breath.

My cousins DD (now an adult with children of her own) was asked what she was going to do when she saw her Grandfather at the weekend?

She replied "I'll hold his ears and bang his head against the wall until he bleeds".

I was trying to find this one the other day. The OP username was echo and they replied to themselves around a year later, someone then responded with is there an echo in here? 😂

Thats the one. It really really made me laugh!!

That one was hilarious. Sadly the poster didn’t add to the humour.

Please someone else remember Mitmoo or I will think I’m going mad!

Another classic! 😂

cutted up pear

Additionally, any meal must also be carefully listed with one or more of: "healthy", "home made", "from scratch", "fresh" or similar, lest complete strangers instantly judge you as a complete slattern feeding your kids ready-made microwaved roadkill.

e.g: "we had chicken and potatoes with salad" must be >>>>> "we had home made healthy chicken stir fry and new potatoes prepared from scratch, with a MASSIVE salad".

You get official bonus points if you sneak in a comment about "UPFs" in a derogatory tone, and/or pretending you have been avoiding them your entire life, and not just since the term came to wide public awareness a while back.

This is the one where poster asked about a pushchair, and answered herself some three years later. There’s a cracker of a comment, about 12 in.
