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”.

@Mammyloveswine YES! I am creasing up thinking about that entire thread Grin

In A.M.A a submissive sadist OP. Poster asked if you were a true sadist why didn't you post in AIBU. 🤣
The pushchair never gets old.
Shit on my skirt too. It's an oldie.

I've just had to advance search it to see if it still made me laugh, and it did. Just conjures up a very funny image and was also pretty accurate.

WorraLiberty on a thread on breast v bottle feeding:

Fucking hell nicole, it's like you've just crashed through a window and rolled ninja style into the thread. Grin

Made me grin when I read it when the thread was 'live'.

Did someone say "fuck off you spud Cunt" about a potato once?

helpfulperson · 03/05/2020 12:45

I came on to post the one about 'if you are a real masochist why didn't you post is AIBU' as well.

EmeraldShamrock · 03/05/2020 12:45

if you are a real masochist why didn't you post is AIBU' as well I got the words wrong, it was hilarious. Smile

YOU are the carcass

Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 03/05/2020 12:49

One that stands out is the poster asking about driving a manual but spelt it manuel, the first reply was que?

drinkingwineoutofamug · 03/05/2020 12:54

Recent thread about why poster couldn't take her children to the park but dog walkers could during lockdown
Went along the lines of kids shit in the toilet, dogs can't.
Poster still complained she couldn't take her kids yet dogs on leads....
Poster told to put kids on a lead....

There was a thread once about people being 'precious' about their PFB and how hormones effect you and how different you are with the 2nd and onwards.

Very funny, there were posters saying they'd made their own baby wipes and would gently dry babies bum with a hairdryer at EVERY newborn nappy change till after a few days they realised that was madness. Oh, and a poster who had parked outside A and E the first time they gave their PFB certain foods (in the car) in case they had an allergic reaction.

But the post that made me laugh was a poster saying the night her PFB was born, she spent the night gazing at her, in total awe at how anything could be so prefect and beautiful. She was so stunned by her beauty and said she felt guilty showing off her DD to other parents as it would make them feel bad that their babies were so clearly ugly in comparison.

A few months later she was looking back at the newborn pictures and was confused as it wasn't how she'd remembered and said ' JESUS CHRIST, she looked like someone just beat up Winnie the Pooh! that oxytocin is some powerful shit' 😂

Now is the perfect time for this thread!

Welshmaenad · 03/05/2020 12:59

On a post of mine about my awful in-laws and their awful dog, someone commented along the lines of

"Fuck me, even the dog is a cunt".

He was then christened Cuntydog and it's genuinely how I thought of him from that day forth. It got to the stage where I'd forget his actual name.

Spacecudet · 03/05/2020 13:00

@onedaysoonish I loved that one too. Wasn't there something on that thread about spiders rubbing their willies on the darked on washing? That really made me laughGrin

MarylandMayhem · 03/05/2020 13:01

This response made me giggle :

On the pooed on my skirt at work thread, the poster whose poor Mum had a horrible virus, so bad that an ambulance was called.

And while shitting all over herself and in between vomiting she kept saying to the paramedic 'I'm so sorry Alan'.

Who wasn't called Alan. Nor did they know anyone called Alan Smile

Awful to be that ill but the random 'Alan' was hilarious.

Oh yes, the one with the poster responding to self about the push chair. I literally howled.

That's one of my favourites. I remember her name was Echo Grin

I loved the one where the mother and children made fatballs (lard and seed) for the birds. They put them in the fridge to harden and went out, On their return the DH was home and commented that he had eaten one of the artisan scotch eggs (fat balls) and thought it was very fatty Grin

HighlyUnlikely · 03/05/2020 13:06

‘Off you fuck, cuntychops’ Had me in stitches. Think the OP was complaining about swearing on MN.

Sparklingplasters · 03/05/2020 13:06

I love Mumsnet, “are you on glue”? When the world restarts I’m going to use this IRL

aquashiv · 03/05/2020 13:11

The political ones are brilliant.

Someone will put forward an evidence based counter argument with a response such as he is still a fucking fucker who should fuck off to the farthest place then fuck off some more.

Rachie1973 · 03/05/2020 13:12

I still find snapped and farted brilliant.

Mumthedogsbeensick · 03/05/2020 13:16

The one where the op asked was asking about baby names and wanted opinions on the name Elaine. She got the response 'perfect if you are giving birth to a middle-aged doctors receptionist'

The Hugo thread.

One quite heated Brexit thread. A particular poster turned up to post the same, largely incorrect information, complete with the ability to dismiss everyone who disagrees with them as "rabid lefties" and lots of smiley faces.

Someone wrote
"Oh look, the court jester's arrived."

Loved it.

WorraLiberty · 03/05/2020 13:19

LoseLooseLucy I vaguely remember that Grin

"Is she on glue?"

Never gets old.
