Would love to find mine again - it was about Liam Gallagher and I'm pretty sure it was in a thread about the Ariana Grande Manchester concert. A poster said he has been wearing that anorak since 1993 and he won't feel the benefit.

Can't really say why I love it so much but it still makes me laugh out loud and we often quote it as a family, like when teen ds wears his coat at the dinner table.

Something like “I can’t get my head around weasels.”

And “off you fuck then cunty chops” - my fave line

Crappygilmore · 08/04/2019 21:12

She's a cunt for the butter always got me laughing

FenellaMaxwell · 08/04/2019 21:14

I don’t get why people think snapped and farted is so bloody funny. Confused

Praiseyou · 08/04/2019 21:17

On a thread about farting, a poster wrote how she was woken up by a really bad smell and woke her husband because she thought there must be something dead in the room. He responded with "that's you, you smelly bastard". I still think of it randomly and it makes me laugh every time.

We are fairly juvenile about farting in our house Smile

Thanks for the link to the michaelangelo one. Was crying at that the first time and it still has the same effect now! 😂

Does anyone have a link to the one where the DH ate the fat balls??

NoImNotSpecial · 08/04/2019 21:34

Mine was from a thread discussing 1970s things where the OP said she slept in a nylon nightie in nylon bedsheets with a nylon bedroom carpet, and finished the post with "It's a wonder I didn't spontaneously combust!".

clandestinenetwork · 08/04/2019 21:34

@FenellaMaxwell I feel the same about penis beaker and getting 'darked on'.

But, each to their own...

FenellaMaxwell · 08/04/2019 21:39

Fat ball-

There was a brilliant early CF thread about parking and a neighbour came to OPs rescue with ‘Oh do fuck off dear!’

Also a recent thread complaining about how few days her DCs were in school this April and one MNetter mused on how disappointed OP was going to be when she found out about August.

MillicentMartha · 08/04/2019 22:02

The one where someone had accidentally spray painted a pigeon.

‘Is that you, Paul?’

Namechangerextraordinaire1 · 08/04/2019 22:02

I don't think I've ever really seen anything hilarious, but whenever I hang my washing out in the evening I always grin to myself about it getting darked on and can well imagine my neighbour clutching her pearls at it

TheGigglingGazelle · 08/04/2019 22:06

Another vote for 'snapped and farted' from me, specifically the bit where the OP got a bit indignant and said 'What? I didn't fart AT him!', that had me in hysterics! Grin Grin

TheGigglingGazelle · 08/04/2019 22:08

Oh and a special mention for 'DH drank my mooncup water' Grin

clippityclop · 08/04/2019 22:19

Crying here at the memory of the fat balls one, and the T rex in Asda. Happy days.

LipstickHandbagCoffee · 08/04/2019 22:19

The dp who ate the lard and seed bird balls,and enjoyed them...

The mil who wore white to the wedding to upstage bride and the groom was too scared to challenge his mum

Woman who was getting a pasting for complaining about neighbours pram in communal hall...til she posted a photo that changed dynamic of thread and won her unequivocal support.in fairness the pram was like a Sherman tank

The reveal about poster who was pretending she was MNHQ had more puppets than hobbycraft and it all unravelled,spectacularly,very convoluted

The kylie perfume scam seller bought the Kylie perfume on mn,(back when there were sale boards .immediately resold it on mn at profit. And it was all yea but No but, see but

All the pram huns and their shady dealings

cricketmum84 · 08/04/2019 22:24

Thank you @FenellaMaxwell that's brightened up my Monday evening 😂😂😂

@cricketmum84, I think it got nominated, it may have made it. It was brilliant!

gggrrrargh · 08/04/2019 22:42

The Balonz thread had me crying with laughter, the OP played it perfectly.

plominoagain · 08/04/2019 22:45

The one where I think some one came to mumsnet to offer IT advice ( possibly with good intent but oh dear ) and someone came back with

“ And I thought I just bashed the keyboard with my tits “

I HOWLED . And have been known to use it at work .

BarbieJellyBabyBrain · 08/04/2019 22:47

The Balonz thread had me crying with laughter, the OP played it perfectly.

Yes, Balonz could have turned out to be not that funny, but the beauty of it was how poker faced the OP was. And the way the thread unfolded, with people trying to work out if Balonz was a typo, and totally confused by the deadpan OP - it was such a good one!

MrsBadcrumble123 · 08/04/2019 22:50

The whiny tinker post just had me and my husband crying Grin

moonbabyandthebeast · 08/04/2019 22:57

This has been posted on previous simelar threads but it makes me laugh every time. A poster had found an old mobile and was trying to figure out what the original message was that would prompt her response of "yes, with a wooden spoon". Someone suggested "and the dish ran away you say?"

dollybird · 08/04/2019 22:57

Oink glitter. I have no idea what the thread was actually about, I just remember finding this incredibly funny. Was a few years ago now.

FangsTasticBeast · 08/04/2019 23:03

I’ve just read snapped and farted . Have to say a poster saying “dogs her name you pigeon” was quite funny
