Just that, really. Once Covid is over, I know what I'll be doing....

the grammatical errors are annoying, but yes ha ha ha.

PlanDeRaccordement · 07/01/2021 20:37

I only voted YABU because anyone who writes “site” for “sight” is automatically unreasonable.

Trulyatraditionalman · 07/01/2021 20:38

@Changethetoner Not my writing, I assure you 😉

Brilliant! Grin

If anyone would like to declutter any books they'd be more than welcome at my house.

Same applies with money and my bank account

@Changethetoner

the grammatical errors are annoying, but yes ha ha ha.
Also the use of the word bring when they mean take. For that alone I won't be doing it Grin

Reminds me of Sue Perkins parents and their friends playing hide the cheese!

Stripesnomore · 07/01/2021 20:45

I love this

Trulyatraditionalman · 07/01/2021 20:45

For some reason I have a real urge to bring a dusty old Thomas the Tank engine book to my most serious friend's house, and place it amongst a cluster of their very studious biomedical science books Grin

That’s hilarious Grin

I swear someone’s done that to me, with cutlery.

rosegoldwatcher · 07/01/2021 20:51

I am SO doing this!
I have a garage full of clutter - plenty to choose from.

Each Christmas we swap a box of presents with a local family - the rule is that evreything has to be from a charity shop. This year (as no charity shops were open) we did Happy Garagemas instead.

Sorry if I'm just massively joyless but this sounds really fucking annoying.

yep, I would hate it and feel really invaded
Trulyatraditionalman · 07/01/2021 20:53

@plussizejumpsuit It's not for everybody, but I can strangely foresee some joy in finding a random mug saying "I heart Uzbekistan" in my cupboard and wondering where the hell it came from!

So this is why we have all the MN threads about people finding random objects in their house that don't belong to them ...

MsJaneAusten · 07/01/2021 20:55

I think someone’s done this to me! There is a book on my shelf that I’ve always wanted to read but I’m sure I didn’t buy it Grin

SlopesOff · 07/01/2021 20:56

I foresee many threads on here about knickers in laundry baskets, sports bags, sofas, and jacket pockets that do not belong in the house.

I won't be bringing any to place in plain site though, or taking any to place in plain sight.

Have neighbours key, she goes out often, hmmmm.

Eekay · 07/01/2021 20:58

Do they do it with black, lacy knickers ? That's what MNetters frequently seem to find unexplained in their homes.

ImNotWhoYouThinkIam · 07/01/2021 21:02

Its like a more extreme version of "The Bible" that my brothers and cousin have. Said bible was stolen hidden in one of their suitcases after a holiday abroad in 2003. Its spent the last 17 years being passed among the 3 of them, as creatively as possible. Made harder by one of them moving to Australia. Last I heard it had been hidden on someone's dvd shelf. Grin

@imnotwhoyouthinkiam

Amazing.
