To ask what the funniest thing you've read on Mumsnet is?

[OohOohMrPeevly]

There's some really funny people on here and some stuff has me smiling for days. One I read recently was about the names small children called their parents instead of Mummy and Daddy. One poster wrote that her DC called her DH "Daddy" and called her "Not Daddy" - still makes me smile.

"I LITERALLY just twatted a spider". Think it's in Classics.

I was desperate to see the sinister Easter bonnet but there’s no picture of it on the thread is there??

It's on the last page Queen

Have not RTFT but does anyone remember the thread where the husband found a human skull in the back garden and told the police but decided to put it in the dish washer to clean it up before the police saw it. It turned to mush in the dishwasher.
Eventually it transpired that it was from the long forgotten cemetary next door as they found further skulls and bones at a later date.

Long, long time ago I read a hilarious thread about a hamster that had gone missing. It was in a cage, on a shelf above the cooker and the OP was worried that it had escaped and fallen into the stewpot (I know, doesn't sound funny!) - Anyway, she said it would have been a quick, silent death, RIP Popcorn the hamster. At which a poster pointed out that popcorn would have made a hell of a noise falling into a hot pan.... It turned out to be a spoof thread (in the days before trolls!) and the poster was 'Greensleeves'; i don't know if she's still here.

And the OP whose NDN accused her of having an 'army of flies' which she'd send to annoy NDN...

Can't remember the thread titles. Might be before 'Classics'.

Just googled and read the ‘screaming at the Sistine Chapel’ one everyone is mentioning - and it really is hilarious. Even before I got to the screaming bit I was laughing. Her poor husband. It’.s so comedic that it would make a good telly comedy sketch!

I liked the one where Mother was making a volcano hat for her child. The photos were great.

The one when the op advised us all that we needed to microwave our dogs.

It was obviously an autocorrect error, but the comments were hilarious.

the pomander thread,
hamster stew
cube of poo

Slowly reading through, but I think the one for me was a lady who was so proud of making her own stock - she put the colander in the sink to drain the bones etc and had a colander full of bones and no stock - to be fair, that may have just been a comment in a thread - but blimey its stuck in my head!

Excellent thread OP!

Penetration man was the best so far, it's in the classics.
Another on from a poster who said her son calls his Willy a long Virgina

This is the style and beauty thread that's been mentioned a few times:

Expectation vs Reality of new purchases

It's a corker!

'Overheard on the bus' comes to mind.

The watermark on the letter. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lsnowe sadly DH really ought to stand for Dick Head in far too many of the posts we see.

ha I'd forgotten about Overheard on the bus. And there I am on the first page. Going to treat myself later to reading the whole lot..classic, we need another one of those.

A Fairisle jumper. I was aiming for Sarah Lund Scandi chic.

I missed and hit Sarah Ferguson holidaying in Balmoral in 1983

Sorry but

From the fabulous TossDaily

Anyone mentioned cunt for the butter yet?!

Another one from the clothes thread:

Had my hair cut day.
Expectation: gamine pixie chic
Reality: Lego character

howls

The fat match from the clothes thread proper made me laugh.
I feel the need to resurrect that over something Dd said to me a couple of months back.

There was a thread quite recently, I think it was about Henry VIII but it all got v confusing and somehow ended up involving Katie Price, does anyone else remember it and where I might find it.
It was most unexpectedly funny.

savage min min

just so funny

Penis beaker

and so many other have had me in laughing till I cry

Me and my sister have just been howling at the clothes thread. I thought I was going to pass out trying to read "fat match" and she was almost sick with laughing.

Definitely worth a read if you haven't been there yet!

Writing a shopping list for DH earlier, I remembered the MNer who'd put 'loo rolls' on a list for her DH and he'd come back with about 87 bread rolls and said 'This was all they had'.

therattlebag it was worth starting this thread just to discover that expectation vs reality one. Thank you

The ‘Penetration man’ thread, with the guy who had a sex briefcase was outstanding - I think it was the fact he worked in Asda or something that floored me (not that there the slightest thing wrong about working in Asda, but you’d have to read the thread to know where I’m coming from 😂)
