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.

"You're depressed and living off takeaways? Why don't you batch cook?"

DustyMcDustbuster · 26/01/2019 23:22

I just scream-laughed at this reply to this beaker

You've just had sex so I assume you are on fairly intimate terms. Even if you have an acid fanjo and his sperm is nine tenths itching powder, surely you can use the bathroom at the same time? You can wash your fanjo in the bath and he can scrub his cock in the sink.

The one where a guy left his wank-tissues on the OPs side of the bed to clear away and she said she was not "Dobby the jizz elf!"

DustyMcDustbuster · 26/01/2019 23:23

What was snapped and farted about?

Slapdasherie · 26/01/2019 23:25

That thread with Suzi Quatro’s fat nan is my favourite on here.

There was also someone who had a pixie cut and dyed her hair red and ended up looking like a fat match.

@justasking111 thank you, these have me in tears of laughter 😂😂😂

DareDevil223 · 26/01/2019 23:27

Slapdasherie

The post in that thread where the lady had a perm and her BIL shouted out 'Bloody hell it's Colonel Gaddafi' actually made me cry real tears of laughter.

‘You don’t need his permission to leave’.

For some reason I had genuinely thought I had to persuade my ex DH that us splitting up was the right thing to do! and him disagreeing had some sort of power of veto. Grin

Thanks Mumsnet!

alphajuliet123 · 26/01/2019 23:29

"Just have your cake and fuck off"

"Well, I am the ringmaster of this particular circus"

Think they were on the same thread, about an interfering mother in law who the poster had had to move nearer to, but I can't find it.

OftenHangry · 26/01/2019 23:30

Oooh. The one where veganism helped OP's eyesight amongst other things.

Some of yours are having me in stitches here😂

WunderBlah · 26/01/2019 23:33

The OP who imacced the baby's head was quite funny.

coffeecow · 26/01/2019 23:33

A fat match.....ffs GrinGrinGrin

So many to choose from, but two that stay with me are
Run like your tampon string is on fire
And
I’ve never heard a fox ask for a finger up the bumGrin

treaclesoda · 26/01/2019 23:34

I've just remembered one. The poster who insisted that water is toxic and that you should never drink it. And if you're thirsty, it's completely in your imagination and you shouldn't have a drink because you don't actually need to. That was entertaining.

Clionba · 26/01/2019 23:35

I'm crying here about the Colonel Gadaffi remark!! GrinGrin keep them coming!

WunderBlah · 26/01/2019 23:35

NEST OF VIPERS!

That one really stuck didn't it Grin

Social services get paid £1000 per child they take away

Sophisticatedsarcasm · 26/01/2019 23:36

Someone on the Call the Midwife thread claiming that going dairy free would cure sickle cell disease.

WunderBlah · 26/01/2019 23:41

There was a lot on the dangerwich thread about the mythical healing properties of food. mkay.

JaneJeffer · 26/01/2019 23:44

Someone saying they had seen a Montessori School Child on Board sign on a car and Cod asked "was it a wooden car?"

DareDevil223 · 26/01/2019 23:47

@Clionba

Here is the link to the thread. It's worth reading in full as it's hysterical but don't do what I did and read it at work. I kept snort-laughing out loud.

The horror of you do not have a bathroom bin. I don’t and I don’t need one. One poster said if she had to go back downstairs, the the bin, after using the loo to change her sanitary pad before going to bed it would wake up her child. So after her child goes to bed her and her partner must sit and hold bladder/bowel till they go to bed as nipping up to the bathroom and back down wakes the kid? It amounts to the same thing. Still I don’t need a bin ffs!

nakedscientist · 26/01/2019 23:54

Great thread.

For me the best ever was the OP talking about putting her bag in the "fly space" on the bus and someone sitting on the "fly seat". People started mucking about and saying funny things and she said " why is everyone going on about flys?" That was a great laugh.

OhDearGodLookAtThisMess · 26/01/2019 23:55

Colonel Gaddafi and Suzy Quattro's fat nan have officially made me cry laughing (silently - it's late after all).
