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”.

Someone posted quite an unusual name on a baby naming thread the other day
One of the first comments was 'are you American ?'

crispysausagerolls · 05/05/2020 22:13

Thread about the queen 2-3 weeks ago and someone made a joke (first or second comment on the thread) about “ma’amsnet”

Just won MN for me, forever.

There was a thread about a wedding and the couple not airing the Liverpool Tottenham Champions League final.

One poster said “they can record it and watch it the next day”😭😂

On a recent thread, when stockpiling went a bit nuts and lockdown rules were put in place, posters were going a bit daft over what was and wasn't an essential purchase. one poster suggested that pet food wasn't essential enough to make a trip for! Another poster replied "What am I supposed to feed my cat, garibaldis?" - has me laughing for hours!

Pixilicious
Thank you for link to SNAPPED AND FARTED I can't sleep and am literally lying in bed with tears running down my face and shaking with laughter after reading that.:)

BadLad · 06/05/2020 03:40

On the Sister Should Get Real thread, there's a slight tangent about the phrase "Real women have curves".

Someone has posted Never heard anyone say that who didn't look like an emperor penguin

That made me laugh.

Purpleneonpinkunicorns · 06/05/2020 04:01

Sorry but placemarking. Great thread op

agonyauntie2020 · 06/05/2020 05:41

Oh god, so many:

On the masochist S&M AMA thread where someone posted "if you're really a masochist why didn't you post in AIBU?"

Many of the answers on the cakecunt thread. Talking of that, cuntydog thread too.

A recent post by some batshit OP who reported her nephew had been sitting in his car watching the OP's elderly neighbour's house at night, in case she put something in the wrong bin, and she said "apparently sending someone to watch your neighbour's house at night is illegal now" to which a poster responded something like "oh no that's illegal now " Just cracked me up.

Snapped and farted, watched it unfold live and felt like I was a part of the giant mumsnet brain connected with all these friendly funny women pissing ourselves at the OP's post (I don't think she understood how funny we all thought it was?)

Hedgehogs and bum-fingering, Center Parcs and bum fun.

I could go on and on. I'm here for the humour.

This has been withdrawn by MNHQ at the poster's request.

AppleJane · 06/05/2020 08:37

This thread is hilarious, going to have to read in secret so I stop getting asked what I'm laughing at Grin

AprilJune · 06/05/2020 10:02

Was the Pombear thread real then?

ClashCityRocker · 06/05/2020 10:58

There was a marvellous thread a few years back around valentines day.

Op had a crush on a work colleague (I think) and wanted our thoughts on a poem she had written him for valentines day. It included the line

'do you think it would be weird
To rub my rude bits on your beard'.

The responses were amazing.

sorryiasked · 06/05/2020 11:46

Oh clashcityrocker I'd forgotten that one! I don't think the OP ever returned tui the thread but there were some great suggestions. ride poem thread Grin

sorryiasked · 06/05/2020 11:46

Rude! (Very rude) not ride

tillyteatowel · 06/05/2020 12:01

What does UCM mean?!

HeyDuggeewhatchadoin · 06/05/2020 12:14

There was this one post called "I've won" or something, the OP wrote an essay to the OW about how the husband was staying with her and she'd won, they were stronger etc etc.

This obviously Scottish poster replied something like "Congratulations, you've won a bag of shite."

Not as funny retelling it but I can't find the thread!

cstaff · 06/05/2020 12:25

I'd never seen that rude or ride poem before. That has to be one of the funniest things ever on here Grin. I've just been crying laughing..

Arewehere · 06/05/2020 13:11

HeyDuggeewhatchadoin That made me laugh, I used to watch Steve Coogan's character 'Paul Calf' years & years ago & that was his catchphrase - Bag of shite Grin and used perfectly in that answer to the twatty OP who 'won'

Coffeecak3 · 06/05/2020 13:19

The OP who's constipated mil was coming for Xmas and wanted OP or op's dh to administer a suppository.

Someone suggested they blue tac the suppository and get mil to keep sitting on it until it's in the right place. Another suggested using the pointy end of an umbrella, preferably opened to shield from splatters.

Fuck off you spud cunt.

Unforgettable. Grin I still use that thread as inspiration to hurl abuse at my Henry the Hoover.
