AIBU to want an interesting AIBU thread in the AIBU topic?

[BrigadeOfLannisters]

Something about weddings perhaps. Or mad neighbours.

Or leaving a preemie while you go waterskiing.

Share your memorable AIBU topics if you feel like it.

I honestly can't remember, it was all a bit chaotic. I'll have a peek through my PMs and see if I can put anything together.

Beesimo's last thread started, I think, as a rant to those who didn't respect her Traveller Ways. She then forgot she was a Traveller and went all Yorkshire Farmers Wife circa 1952. Flour'n'aprons'n'lambs in t'Aga.

Everyone who challenged this was a stonking Racialamist and then Bee flew off to Ireland. Seconds later Bee's daughter came on, with a strong family posting style, and slagged us for upsetting Ma.Then a whole saga about Gran-gran, the Jackys, Appleby Horse Fair and some electric gates continued for hours. It is one evening ost to MN that I will never regret

I still wonder if she ever climbed over those gates. Before I remember it was all made up.

I loved Beesimo's homespun wisdom and her tales of country life in the 1890s, complete with happy gypsies with a strong moral code and slaughtering livestock singlehanded.
It was all aybagum and rather wonderful.
She flew off to Ireland in tears in the end because mumsnetters were mean to her, though Beesimoslass did come and try to defend her.

xpost Madame, though it seems I missed loads, has anybody got a link?

No, she was deleted. In fact, was she banned?
I forgot Beesimos' Lass was called BeesimosLass. That was a master touch.
It's a shame it has gone as there were lovely bits dropped in that were lost in the frenzy. Ironing for the male cousins and Gran-gran's shell suits being two stonkers .
I liked Beesimo very much.

I adored her and hate that she isn't real. :(

The best bit was the amount of work she put into it. There were threads for weeks about wildly differing subjects, up would pop Bee saying 'Ee, to fettle it right put t'wood in t'hole' or 'A rabbit's never skinned until it's skinned twice'. Such wisdom.

I wonder if she's still around under a different name and persona.

Where was the I AM CANADIAN bit? I can't find? Link? Page reference?

Tortoise, thank you for explaining the coat bit, NOW it makes sense!! What a clusterf*ck :o

Tortoise, weren't we chasing some man-hating free jerker nut job all over MN a few weeks ago? The one who resurrected years-dead threads spouting idiocy such as "you go girl, rah rah, birth that baby all alone on your kitchen floor". Lunatic. Not an AIBU but maybe I should have started one - "AIBU to want TheRealDeal banned for spouting dangerous nonsense"

Free jerker?
Bloody iPhone. FREEBIRTHER!!

I wanted Bee to be real too.

This is the I AM CANADIAN thread; it's near the end. It's not all that funny per se, but just the thought of all the outrage behind it and only being able to express it in caps. :o

There was also that "stream of consciousness" one about spilt wine, dead bees on the windowsill , someone (another woman??) called Sharon? Denise? ........ that was rather splendid in a surreal way. And hilarious.

I can't find it

Ooh I remember that one Salmotrutta, it was wonderfully odd.
There was also a truly bonkers one about secret satanic handsigns/messages in hiphop/rap music, with Beyonce being one of the culprits AFAIR.
It went on to a second thread and I stiill couldn't work out if it was a wind up or serious.

I miss Beesimo too (yes, I know she may have been a bit wacky!) - her kids had "quarters" and she had a marvellous nettle recipe for skin..............

Oh the Sharon/spilt wine one was hilarious !

Here it is...bonkers!

Oh thanks Cheerful - I tried searching and failed miserably!!

It's deliciously bonkers!!

I know it's not AIBU (again, sorry OP) butnothing beats BitOfFun's shat-upon pouffee. To quote CheerfulYank, "shat" is quite possibly the best word in the English language! :o

Fur coat , one was fab.
I am a canadian, was also a corker.
ohhh how we long for a good old AIBU days.
these days all you get is namby pamby nonsense that has no real substance.

Is the thread about the person who's partner wanked onto her essay still around?
