To think MNers need to see this today

It's been a tough week at MNHQ and the gin cupboard is almost bare. Am I wrong in thinking long term MNers will feel better for seeing this and remembering what a helpful lot we can be.

Ha ha, I just knew it would be the bat. Ah the good old days.....

PandorasXbox · 13/08/2017 23:31

Feel better now after that ILoveMillhousesDad?

DonkeyOaty · 13/08/2017 23:31

Pfft to cancel the cheque/PB/Maui. That's proper newbie stuff.

Oldies would say SW brownies/Tatiana/Original Tech Steve's moved to NYC/CAT me you cunt.

zukiecat · 13/08/2017 23:33

I had forgotten the bat

I can't remember the story behind it either

MovingOnUpMovingOnOut · 13/08/2017 23:41

Or river of sweetcorn.

I never found it particularly funny but each to their own.

MovingOnUpMovingOnOut · 13/08/2017 23:44

I only remember Pacific because... I was IHaveYourToaster Grin

In RL not weird threads where kitchen appliances get held hostage by Prince Philip Chaos' Mum had borrowed it without asking if I recall correctly.

PandorasXbox · 13/08/2017 23:45

I didn't care for river of sweet corn either but super soaker otoh still makes me laugh..

PerkingFaintly · 13/08/2017 23:46

Yy, the Chaotic toaster was away doing a charidee gig.

It came back.

With tales to tell the young utensils, one assumes.

mawbroon · 13/08/2017 23:51

I remember the bat! Can't believe I have been here since 2005 Shock

Wnaky baskets anyone? Grin

AtSea1979 · 13/08/2017 23:56

I remember the bat. I've been here since 2004. Can't believe I'm still here with you nest of vipers.

JigglyTuff · 14/08/2017 00:01

I bloody loved the supersoaker thread. I can remember exactly where I was (sitting on the stairs while DS was having a bath) while furiously posting on it.

Never liked the ugly bat. And I truly have never googled dragon butter

Eragonsegg · 14/08/2017 00:14

Booble plate was one of my favourites, Brian and His yoni massage and the thread in classics about bonus of being a teacher!

AtSea1979 · 14/08/2017 00:18

I googled dragon butter and blue waffle and all the other awful things I was told never to google. I still need brain bleach now.

PandorasXbox · 14/08/2017 07:33

Me too jiggly, although for some reason it didn't infuriate me, I quite liked TM and her bloody mindedness 😲

HoofWankingSpangleCunt · 14/08/2017 07:41

Cube of poo made me cry with laughter. That and the threads about all the bonkers things for sale on ebay. Dodgy taxidermy anyone? Shiney's penguin thread....oh so many happy memories.
I once started a mildly funny thread about Morph Pornos in homage to Tony Hart when he died. Think Morphfucking, Morphfelching etc. Well it made me and a few others laugh at the time.

SymphonyofShadows · 14/08/2017 07:51

My favourite thread is about urban legends in adult fiction from about 5 years ago. Don't read it alone at night though!

Ginslinger · 14/08/2017 08:45

Cunting Sainsbury's - that made me laugh at the time.

derxa · 14/08/2017 08:50

Please explain the bat. Is it some code or another?

Ginslinger · 14/08/2017 08:55

it was the mumsnet equivalent of being rickrolled - the link got put in a post and then the bat appeared - boom

IfYouGoDownToTheWoodsToday · 14/08/2017 10:58

Anyone remeber the first TripAdvosir thread.

Something about prositutes a plastic chair and "foreign food" iirc, blooming hilarious.😂

I do miss some of the "oldies" NOT moldies

IfYouGoDownToTheWoodsToday · 14/08/2017 10:59

Trip advisorHmm

SymphonyofShadows · 14/08/2017 13:57

People nc'd after penis beaker etc. because it brought floods of new people in and they felt like they could be outed in RL as some of the previous posts made them identifiable.

derxa · 14/08/2017 13:59

I'm not an oldie. I feel I'm one of the permanently bewildered.

SymphonyofShadows · 14/08/2017 14:02

I seem to have a knack for missing the big events. I was away for NYE carnage and Jeff for instance.

RandomDent · 14/08/2017 15:22

I namechanged after the hacking stuff. I couldn't re register and went off MN for months. It drew me back though. Grin

Some places are great on here, like the staff room. I might just stay on there.
