Just that really. Either a totally off topic question, a hilarious response or just something that made you laugh.

For me it was someone who had posted about her office chair frequently appearing damp and smelling of pee and someone just responded “woah we’re halfway there”.

Did she ever find her ironing board ? Lost track

Thelnebriati · 03/05/2020 22:01

I've just remembered the one where a journalist accidentally copy-pasted the instructions from her editor instead of the goady post s/he was supposed to write, but I don't have a link.

Omg snapped and farted has just made me literally lol, belly laughs and tears rolling.

Thewomeninthemirror · 03/05/2020 22:04

The poster a few years back who said people used to stop her in the street and everywhere all the time to take photos of her baby as she was just sooooo beautiful.

PatchworkElmer · 03/05/2020 22:11

Howling at this thread!

Thurmanmurman · 03/05/2020 22:25

Someone once replied "do you always answer a question with another question, like a fucking wizard"? Can't remember what the OP was about but it made me laugh.

OMG I needed this thread tonight.
Just been on the hedgehog one. Tears are streaming down my face 🤣

Theresomethingaboutdairy · 03/05/2020 22:39

Oh the post that's now in classics. I think it was reasons why posters had ended relationships. And one poster came on and said that she had had to finish with an ex as he insisted on wearing beige socks and his feet looked permanently dead. Actually that whole post had me literally crying.

TheBitchOfTheVicar · 03/05/2020 22:47

One about ridiculous arguments, prompted by the op because she said she'd got cross when she saw her DH eating fruit n fibre for breakfast because she could see he was trying to engineer more 'me time' in the toilet instead of looking after their young DC.

A response on the penis beaker thread, "I'm feeling fruity tonight darling, fill up the penis beaker".

Thepigeonsarecoming · 03/05/2020 23:07

I found most of this thread hilarious www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/3895864-to-dislike-having-showers-with-your-husband-partner?pg=1

But ‘chavy sex pond’ is a phrase i aspire to use in real life now! 😂

"Is it the weather that’s making the high horses gallop around or have they poisoned the water with arsehole again?!"

Thepigeonsarecoming · 03/05/2020 23:12

Ask a post just titled “In” where the text read “ In.my wedding dress..4 dc later..couldnt think of anything else to entertain them..Good for you! Xx”

Thepigeonsarecoming · 03/05/2020 23:13

Also not ask 🤦‍♀️

MovingBriskyOn · 03/05/2020 23:19

And phyllisnights and her amazing baby to be/fajita friday

elQuintoConyo · 03/05/2020 23:43

I remember some donkey's plonker starting a thread to mansplain computers and tech to us little women, when one poster said she just "bashed the keyboard with her tits" Grin still makes me laugh now.

BuzzShitbagBobbly · 03/05/2020 23:58

ClementineTangerine "She said "supersoaker" in every single one of her posts, usually more than once! Was it some old PR stunt by supersoaker or something???"

There was a thread about an office tea round ages ago. OP seemed to have decided the only possible word for that drink was "brew", as well as apparently trying to beat the world record for how many times she could use it in a couple of paragraphs.

One of the replies really made me laugh but I am going mad trying to retrieve it from my memory banks! I blame you if I wake up at 2am reciting it!!

Thelnebriati
The Hugo thread is brilliant, thanks, it should be in classic.

Willow2017 · 04/05/2020 00:16

And phyllisnights and her amazing baby to be/fajita friday

Aaww I miss Phyllis, those threads were hilarious.

GreenTeaMug · 04/05/2020 06:00

Clementine Supersoaker mum was so obtuse!

She described kid as a livewire and said he was not often invited to parties due to this. But she was ADAMANT that the kid could take a supersoaker to the party.

Belleende · 04/05/2020 07:21

There was a Thread once commenting on how toddlers did adult size poos. One poster said that in their house, those giant poos that slipped out and went round the u bend without leaving a trace are called lucky barrys. We have adopted and adapted. We have added mucky larries, which are the opposite of luck barries

Esiotrot87 · 04/05/2020 07:46

The responses on this thread were brilliant:

Poster complaining about having to get up and wash after sex. There was a reply 'For fucks sake its semen not wheelie bin juice' (or words to that effect).

AlexisCarringtonColbyDexter · 04/05/2020 08:41

@Esiotrot87

hahaha! this response is brilliant:

*Have you ever te noihydc before?
I always say don’t knock it till you try it.

I think it’s certainly worth a bash but don’t forget to take a green handbag*
