To ask the most bonkers mumsnet post you've ever witnessed?

[agonyauntie]

After the deletion of various threads on here (you know what I'm talking about)

Just wondered what is the most bonkers mumsnet thread you've ever witnessed or came across?

You could well be right IvanaPee, all I remember is the over dramatic hyperbole shown by the poster over this supposed world ending tragedy.

@stickyblisteredanus I did Willy Willy Willy was just so odd!

I think that 'slithery' was a wind up. Because she goes on to say she considered 'Blood' as a name. I think it's taking the piss out of some of the out there names some people come up with. I remember reading one years ago where the op was considering 'Portley' as a name . That was probably a joke too thinking about it.

One if the first I ever read where the woman wanted to know how to bug her DH! He was being overly helpful and running errands all the time so she thought he must doing it to talk to the OW. I expected posters to say - oh, lovely you’ve got some trust issues or a communication problem with your DH but instead everyone piled in with advice about the best way to bug a car! That’s when I knew Mumsnet was a mad, mad wonderful place...

What was the one with the woman who had a seriously ill child in hospital and another at home, she was clearly full of it and kept making new threads updating on child’s condition? And she had to travel hours a day by train to the hospital or something?? Sorry can’t remember more! There was a Reddit thread about it

Oh and the one about ‘A’ making grown women vomit because they were bitching about her!

That was ridiculous!

The one where OP pretended to be dying and looking for ways to help her dd remember her was disturbing.

What sort of person does that??

coco that one was so pathetic

Placemarking! I'm loving reading these 😂😂

Oh and the one about ‘A’ making grown women vomit because they were bitching about her!

I’d forgotten that one! Didn’t she say something like ‘I devastated them intellectually’?

Cocobean30 that one was a troll, there was an 'Olivers' Army' of posters attached to it. Can only presume that people post those sorts of thread because they are desperate for attention. I do struggle to understand the motivation of posters who become like crazed groupies whipping themselves up into a frenzy on these threads, it becomes a nauseating competition to see who can care the most. I wonder if the posters responding are doing so for the attention as much as the original poster who started the thread, that and the feeling of being such a good caring person feeding into their ego.

I also remember the person making A sick, didn't the poster publicly call a group of them out over something? They didn't overhear something in a restaurant or was that another one?

Is this the babychino one?

I LOVE the first reply!

This one is rather marvellous:

No that's not the babychino one I was thinking of WeBuilt, the one I remember has been referenced in that thread though - it was at Costa and IvanaPee was correct it was to do with marshmallows! Looks like it was originally in Chat so will be lost to the mists of time.

Yeah it was definitely in costa!

Webuilt that Morrison's one is very bonkers. Thank you for finding it.

I think the OP of the Costa babychino thread was wound up about the marshmallow being a choking hazard, and wouldn’t accept the majority of posters saying it wasn’t an issue as she could have easily intercepted the marshmallow before her child ate it

I’m just reading the Willy one and my username has never been more accurate

That was truly bonkers Still, the addition of the Summer Nights video from Grease in order to clarify the actions was inspired.

Ah, that's a shame, CassandraCross - it sounded brilliant. That one I found was OK, but didn't seem as hilarious as people were suggesting

On a thread where a poster was aggrieved at being univited to a wedding at the Dorchester, one poster's advice was to "snitch on them to the Dorchester".

A thread about having difficulty passing the driving test was qnswered with "Can you get someone else to take the test for you? Or have they tightened up on that?"

The thread where fatandembarrassed took a stroll into business class has some mad posts on it. "I wouldn't hesitate to give up my business class seat to a pregnant woman who needed it" being one.

Never mind the most bonkers thread, this is the best thread ever. I hadn't seen most of these truly bonkers thread and have thoroughly enjoyed reading them. Willy, willy, willy is like something from a bbc3 sitcom.

@WeBuiltThisBuffetOnSausageRoll the comment about the sun with no sunhat? Pissed myself!
