to think it is impossible to have a lighthearted thread on Mumsnet anymore, even if it has the dreaded *lighthearted* in the title?

[Mintyy]

Cos I can't think of one for yonks.

The only ones that people claim to "spray tea over their screen at" all turn out to be silly attention seekers who don't know how to check their autocorrect before posting, or pervy singletons posting to get their sad little kicks.

Please someone show me a good humoured and amusing thread from anywhere on the general boards in the last three months.

This one turned out to be funny

just waiting for my train.

What happened to the au pair in the chalet btw?

Coconutty. DrNick. You've made me laugh and this thread is not for laughing in. I know it's not b/c it doesn't have in the title. How dare you, I'm reporting your posts.

Oh I didn't think that one was funny ZigZag. I thought her dh was a prize arse.

I found the train one quite funny.

I don't usually find the 'Funny Threads' funny though tbh . That's not to say there isn't some very funny women on here.

I don't usually believe the 'Hilarious Typo/Auto correct' ones either , I think most people make them up.

God, laughaminute me

I missed the curry and the psycho stalker. I've not got an eye for the potential funnies. Hmm.

I can't see that you'd ever do a lighthearted thread, Mintyy. All you do is fucking moan on about how bad MN is these days.

Be the change

There was a blood man part 2 recently, didn' t read it though but that was what the au pair said the 4 year old had told her he'd seen. Nothing happened Fairenuff, was just kids winding up the new au pair.

Here's one

Here's another

Those are just in the last couple of days.

It depends.

So YABU.

There is a very funny style and beauty one that turned into extraordinary things that swingers get up to.

I thought my thread about photocopying my arse was quite amusing and light-hearted......and it didn't descend into a bum fight.

Here's another

Yes! The swingers one was funny too, although one person did try to get all serious on it...

Thanks for the update Sparkle.

Fairenuff

They found the bloodman in a museum in London on the second thread... Not much more than that though.

Ach, I knew you'd say that Mintyy

He is a miserable arse, but that wasn't the bit that was lighthearted. They were just a play on words but you didn't specify what kind of humour you wanted.

I prefer a good 'what arses have you had to work with' or 'tell me about accidents you've had' thread. The weirdos posters you get on here never cease to amaze me.

This was hilarious.

Have you got a link please K999?

I'm intrigued as to how the situation came about

I kept meaning to look at that one when it was popping up on active convos Fish, thanks

Ooh yes the ugly objects was so good.

Now I'm laughing at the Kenenties all over again

My latest thread is lighthearted, yet doesn't contain lighthearted in the title. So far it hasn't descended into a bunfight, and seems appreciated by several other posters. But it isn't "popular" either.

Tis the very least I can do for you Fairenuff m'dear
