Whether it be something that made you laugh out loud, a brilliant piece of advice or a good kick up the arse - am interested to know if one comment from a stranger can really make a difference.

On the "If you fart in the bath..." thread:

"I have recently switched from thongs to large pants. It would appear that thongs act as a very effective 'fart muffler', whilst large pants allow my cheeks to rub together in the style of a grass whistle."

I know. I still look out wistfully for that poster.

butterflyballs · 14/05/2015 22:23

Momagain - thank you! I feel very at home here :)

Earlier on the MNer being tutted at in Costa thread:

I'm premenstrual, so I would be in police custody by now.

Actual tears at the wooden spoon response. Just brilliant Grin

CrystalHaze · 14/05/2015 22:33

I am genuinely crying with laughter at the wheelchair fight / 'Are you in Scotland' one Grin

ShootPeppaPig · 14/05/2015 22:35

Aggressive jam tart eater is by far my favourite, I'm crying!

StitchWitch · 14/05/2015 22:42

Somebody sent me an absolutely brilliant link for my son, to some fantastic resources for the Welsh reasoning tests. I think they had helped develop the materials. I've managed to lose the link, and I had to get the thread deleted as I totally outed myself in the course of ranting about my son's treatment in class, so I no longer have access to the material but I remember it was brilliant (unlike my usually-excellent googling skills).

From the name forum: " 'Evangeline' makes me feel like I just ate two cream cakes, and regretted at least one of them."

Just thought of one, the poster who replied to zombie thread in pushchairs which was several years old and hadn't got any responses with a detailed review of the pushchair...

Only to be told that she was the OP of the post and talking to herself several years ago

Snoozybird · 15/05/2015 07:35

I remember a thread entitled 'bumsex and wind' and someone's response was "didn't they sing Boogie Wonderland?"

(sincere apologies for mentioning bumsex but this reply still has me howling years later)

GemmaTeller · 15/05/2015 07:50

omg, its 7.45am and I'm crying with laughter reading this thread.

'eaten three jam tarts in anger'

Sometime today I will find the opportunity to call DH 'cuntychops' Grin

LuckyLuckyMe · 15/05/2015 08:04

Still laughing at these.

'And you say the dish ran away'? GrinGrinGrin

I've eaten three jam tarts in anger. That'll show the fuckers GrinGrinGrin

Tanith · 15/05/2015 08:26

There was a thread in News started by a poster called ScottishBloke, who claimed to represent the viewers of Babes TV or something.

Some of the replies he received were pure, comic gold Grin

TenerifeSea · 15/05/2015 08:26

I have adopted 'cuntychops' and 'wankbadger' into my daily foul mouthed repertoire, as has my partner. When the dog is being naughty, we also call him a tiny wanker.

FinalFatmester · 15/05/2015 08:28

this thread reminds me why I'm still sticking with MN despite seeing a lot of shit on here lately.
There are some classic funny one liners, but the one line that has stayed with me (not my thread) was when someone was probably talking about dealing with toddlers and got the reply 'Toddlers are cunts'
It really made me laugh and I mutter it under my breath whenever dd has a tantrum!

TheLastPickleInTheJar · 15/05/2015 09:35

'Tiny Wankers followed by Musical Little Shits with Leanne' Brilliant Grin

FarFromAnyRoad · 15/05/2015 09:42

Sitting here tears streaming down my face - it's to call, of course, but 'even the dog's a cunt' probably takes 1st!

FarFromAnyRoad · 15/05/2015 09:43

ffs.....Can't concentrate for laughing!

TheLastPickleInTheJar · 15/05/2015 09:48

There were some great responses on the 'Sean, Daniel or Balonz' baby names thread.

"Balonz have more fun"
"I've reached a decision, on balonz, I'd go for Daniel"

" 'Don't pop the balloons, Balonz', 'Don't lose your balance, Balonz'. It's going to be tricky but worth it"

I've just read the thread again Grin It turned out to be a wind up but it was great fun!

Elledouble · 15/05/2015 09:52

"Take your head out of your arse, it isn't a hat". My partner and I now use that regularly.

This thread is ace. I've got the baby in the sling and I think I'm wake him up with all the sniggering. And it reminded me to do my pelvic floor exercises, so that's good.

WienerDiva · 15/05/2015 09:55

Oh sweet mercy! My dd is telling to stop laughing because she's trying to watch a film.

I loved aggressive jam tart eating.

I frequently use now "boiling my piss" and "cockwomble" all thanks to MN.

Pagwatch · 15/05/2015 10:08

' Take your head out of your ass, it isn't a hat' is my favourite line from Pitch Perfect.
