What comment have you read, maybe a long time ago, that you still remember?
I still remember one MNer insisting a 4 year old should be able to walk a mile in 12 minutes. Mine are obviously slackers.

Thank you for sharing the Take a Break tips link!

I have genuinely learnt so much from MN. I have never literally pissed myself (thank you antenatal class leader) nor spat anything on the keyboard (smartphone) but I have actually lol'd and cried with laughter so hard I couldn't speak and just handed the phone to DH by way of an explanation.

"Your minge".

There was a thread on S&B where a poster said she'd tried wearing a cape but it made her look like a cluedo piece. I still laugh at that at random moments.

The Gadaffi one has just had me crying with laughter, and I couldn't even explain to dd why it was so funny. Grin

"That won't work for me" and "if someone tells you who they are, listen" have served me well.

@RedHatsDoNotSuitMe - honestly I loved your sage advice and have been known to trot it out to friends with varying degrees of bewilderment.

I may have it put on a teeshirt:

           *Bored? Kids at school?   Dishwasher loaded? Go on! Have a Wank!

God I love this thread laughing myself silly.

stayathomer · 28/01/2019 22:38

I am saving this thread!! Talk about a tonic!!! (Only three pages in so far!)

TheLittleDogLaughed · 29/01/2019 06:44

“Your minge!” I still laugh about that loads.

And the phrase “dressing gown of doom” that came from a hilarious thread about man flu has stuck in our household and been passed on widely.

And I remember a poster who’s MIL insisted she should have a specific room dedicated to ironing.
She posted “why should I have an ironing dungeon” Grin

Glorious addition last night. Throwing cold water in your drunk partners face could kill them. 😂

KickBishopBrennanUpTheArse · 29/01/2019 08:09

The thread that actually made me cry laughing was Marmalade's lemon drizzle cunt thread. Especially the poster who told her to "Punch the cake!"

I think because I could imagine it playing out in any primary school in the country!

The one that had the biggest impact was EMINs thread. I read it when I was researching fostering and it made me finally pick the phone up. I've been fostering for four years.

TheLittleDogLaughed · 29/01/2019 08:27

I read the EMIN thread last night, it really moved me. What an amazing woman.

TeddyIsaHe · 29/01/2019 08:43

EMIN was incredible. That thread has stayed with me.

On the note of lovely threads, Somerville meeting her now dh is my favourite thread of all time.

midsomermurderess · 29/01/2019 12:10

TeddyIsaHe It ws lovely , if a little chick lit.

captainpantbeard · 29/01/2019 16:05

"There was a thread on S&B where a poster said she'd tried wearing a cape but it made her look like a cluedo piece. I still laugh at that at random moments." And now I will too, that's ace.

dms1 · 29/01/2019 18:27

Loved the ‘stuck in a coffee shop because I’m too British’ thread. Was almost blinded by non waterproof mascara because I cried so hard with laughter. The OP put down a troll brilliantly.

ReaganSomerset · 29/01/2019 19:14

@dms1 can't find it. Did it make it to classics?

ReaganSomerset · 29/01/2019 20:56

Oooh, thanks very much! Just settling down to read it with a Belgian bun and a coffee. Grin

perfectstorm · 29/01/2019 20:57

Ppppick up a Penguin!

Anyone else remember that? The two-timing arse, being sent on a fake date at a penguin sanctuary by his altogether two sharp GF?

From memory, another MNer went along to report on events when he was stood up. Was so, so funny. DS was a baby, and he's now ten, so must have been forever ago now - any old-timers recall it?

SpongeBobJudgeyPants · 29/01/2019 21:02

On a thread, something about not being able to leave a certain place for some reason. Some wit wrote, "Where are you, the Hotel California?" Still makes me laugh now, when I think of it, randomly.

SpongeBobJudgeyPants · 29/01/2019 21:03

I remember that one Storm. Must have been post 2011 tho, cos that's when I joined.

themueslicamel · 29/01/2019 21:29

The next door neighbours who stole Mexican house was the one for me!

pictish · 29/01/2019 21:42

Think that one is possibly my ultimate too. Mexican House Thief. Gobsmacking.

PIFilm · 29/01/2019 22:39

Ok, what’s the Mexican house thief?!

IamFrauBlucher · 29/01/2019 22:41

Just wondering. If you don't have a loo brush how do you push recalcitrant floaty turds round the u-bend?

@UbercornsGoggles I assumed we were cutting out the middle man now and just shitting directly into the dishwasher.

I remember one of the threads on penis size when the sex topic appeared, and the arguments on best size phallus for stimulation/enjoyment.

One poster wrote about an ex's huge penis and that it was "like being fucked by a t-Rex" and another poster saying thicker and shorter was best and ideal was to fuck a doorknob.
