Mine is a poster who when she was quite young was chased on the motorway late at night by a gang of men who drove dangerously, too close and who behaved in a threatening way. She was terrified and ended up pulling into some services which were deserted aside from a group of lorry drivers. Terrified and crying she screeched to a halt by them, unsure whether she was jumping from the frying pan into the fire. They turned out to be her saviours who chased the car away and escorted her back to her junction with her little car sandwiched between their huge lorries. She had the name of one of the drivers (Alf?) Who she said she thought of often who had been so kind to her and who had shared his thermos of tea with her that had been made by his wife.

I have just passed my driving test but this post stuck with me, even before driving was on my radar.

Anyone else?

The forest story wasn’t a thread, it was a post and RightYesButNo has already posted it again on here (not sure what page because I have my settings to show 100 per page)

Witchofzog · 13/10/2019 14:43

I have just remembered the woman who shouted "Willy Willy Willy " at some builders on a roof to get her own back for them looking at her as she walked past

@Iputthescrewinthetuna I’ve just read that thread. I’m dying to know what the deleted post was and did foxy get out ok?

RainingFrogsAndHats · 13/10/2019 18:42

Not long after I joined MB, there was a thread where the OP was worried about an imminent visit from her vile ILs and their aggressive dog.

One poster wrote "my God, even the dog's a cunt" and the dog was referred to as 'cunty dog' for the rest of the thread. Loved it!

Always makes me smile when I remember it

RainbowsAndGlitterAndUnicorns · 14/10/2019 04:01

Snapped and farted 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Igetknockeddownbutgetupagain · 14/10/2019 11:11

Goldenstarz and whereareallmyhairbands
I still think of that image of tea stirring debauchery sometimes - in a lift, at my desk at work, total random times - and start to laugh Grin

LightandShadows · 14/10/2019 11:34

I still think snapped and farted was fake, It doesn't make sense

I think OP was meant to say snapped and shouted

7Days · 14/10/2019 12:11

I've just had a lovely time laughing at that fashion disasters thread.
OP tries contouring
Admiring 10 year old: Mummy you look like you've drawn Maleficent on a paper plate

Itsrebekahvardysaccount · 14/10/2019 12:20

I need to read the thread mentioned in the first post! Can anyone link please?

spot102 · 14/10/2019 12:43

I've not been here all that long, and one of the early threads I read started with a rant about dolphins and how they weren't as cute as they made out and they participated in gang rape.
It was really random and a real 'what on earth' moment. Felt like there had to be a story behind the rant, but I didn't find out

Witchofzog · 14/10/2019 13:53

@itsrebekahvardysaccount It was on a good deeds thread a few years ago. Possibly in classics now. I will see if I can find it Smile

The lady who snapped and farted. I mean hilarious!!! And wailing in the Sistine chapel

PineappleLumps · 14/10/2019 14:08

@LightandShadows no she said she had IBS as ppl thought she had made a typo but hadn’t.

MustardScreams · 14/10/2019 14:10

If people find Sistine Chapel and snapped and farted funny you should honestly read classics from a few years ago. So so much better, some absolute gold there!

MyCatHatesEverybody · 14/10/2019 14:11

Years ago there was a thread entitled bum sex and wind where the OP was asking whether it was normal to experience lots of wind afterwards.

One of the responses was "didn't they sing Boogie Wonderland?" I still have an inward chuckle when I hear that song on the radio.

MayTheLordOpen · 14/10/2019 14:24

"I put my bags down and shouted "Willy, Willy, Willy!"

themental · 14/10/2019 14:38

The Dolphin thread!!! Yes! I was going to post this but someone beat me to it. I tried to read it aloud to DH once and I was crying so much I had to take regular breaks.

For any who missed it the OP is worth a read.

FizzyGreenWater · 14/10/2019 15:01

And a thread of TripAdvisor reviews, where someone detailed an unfortunate trip, where a prostitute called Dillie turned up at their room, looking for her man Hustler

yes! 'I felt like a failure father' - that thread is comedy gold. Grin

I've just skimmed the dolphin thread, which is one I missed. OMG.

OMG

How is that not in classics.

OP's last post is a triumph of the stream of consciousness:

Ducks sound horrible and someone on here told me not to feed them bread anymore because it was bad for them but now I feel like throwing down whole loaves so they can suffocate themselves lol. I don’t even like animals that much and yet reading that post about that dick that died in the vet after that other poster rescued it on her oar after she was gang raped and nearly drowned and bleeding all over was absolutely harrowing.

I think we can all agree that wasps are just evil and nasty for no reason! PS can anyone who has seen the new A Star Is Born tell me if it’s good ? NO spoilers.L pls

Ohhhhh Grin

DobbyLovesSocks · 14/10/2019 15:44

first page of this thread has me crying with laughter.

The colonel gadafi perm !!!!

Fuzzyend · 14/10/2019 16:06

This is a brilliant thread

If I'm ever feeling down the "Is my hedgehog fucked?" post and subsequent thread never fail to cheer.

Courtney555 · 14/10/2019 16:16

Omg your minge.

Re the poster who was so busy attending her children in the pool changing rooms that she completely omitted to put on her tankini bottoms, and walked into the pool area naked from the waist down, causing her DP to utter those immortal words.

MyMuffinsStuck · 14/10/2019 16:49

Itsrebekahvardysaccount not sure of you mean the thread I'm referring to or not but for the enjoyment of all, I present the Wankee Candles thread (which, incidentally, also has one of the best thread titles I've come across to date!):

My username originated from the ‘supermarket shits and misses’ thread. It made me howl. Just gloriousness.
