To ask what mumsnet post lives rent free in your head?

[mosiacmaker]

Just for fun.

Mine is the woman who posted for advice about what to do about her husband who was talking to their cat really sensually. Not baby talk but like sensuous loving ”ooh your fur is so good my darling pussycat” and it gave her the absolute ick.

Every time I talk to my dog I remember her and chuckle. I wonder how she’s doing 😂

What on earth was that one about?

People are having sex in my hedge!!!!! Doubt it’s real but I laughed non stop endlessly while reading it. Still go back and reread if Im having a bad day.

I'M GLAD YOU ASKED!

OP kept hearing creepy music box music from down the garden, everyone suggested the usual (haunted Furby, neighbours doorbell etc. Because obviously this happens far more than anyone realises) and then there was a sound file and it was very creepy.

Then I think a single rose showed up in the garden, then silence for a bit, then the deletion message.

I don't know why it sticks in my head but it did.

@Dottielottie123 Chickencuddle. I hope she escapes and updates. Even if she has to make more threads to pluck up the courage.

There's another poster called Chickencuddles but I think that's just a coincidence and they're not the same poster.

I think about the hedgehod cake and the lemon drizzle cake almost every time I make a birthday cake or a school cake for the kids. Epic, both of them.

Yes - I do! It was happening in real-time, wasn’t it?

I was ill once and that thread kept me entertained for ages. I ended up on Rightmove! In my defence I was a bit feverish 😄

EMIN with the heroin addicted baby.

I well up every time I think about that thread for so many reasons. But I did think it was cruel that she wouldn't give the birth mother the blanket back, even though the rest of MN disagreed with me.

Before that, I'd come on MN from Google several times to read advice about specific problems, and I got to that one from Google as well (some issue I had with bottle feeding brought me to that post, bizarrely), but that was the one that made me register.

Can't remember what the post was about but the reply from one poster was "bashes tits on keyboard" always makes me laugh

Does anyone remember the poster who 'made eyes at the champagne' when she was a guest at someone's house and wanted a drink 😂. I think about that often when looking at the fizz. 🥂

What was the ‘wrinkle upon wrinkles’ thread?!

I love the " cutted up pear" thread. i often think of it when I hear parent and toddler conversations in the supermarket.

Also I made friends with a woman on here when I was thinking about getting married. We were very similar in so many (very spooky) ways and yet we're clearly very different. I like when I see her old user name. We definitely don't agree on some topics but I do always think it brilliant we share commonality in other ways.

I remember a lovely thread from a woman going to a work training (I think) event and only realising when she was on the train that there was a dressy dinner in the evening. She didn't have any suitable clothing with her and posted asking for advice where she could shop quickly when she arrived. People nearby were offering to lend and deliver dresses. It just felt like an actual community.

The owl thread always comes to mind when these questions are asked😂😂

Was that the one that went along the lines of AIBU to throw lemon drizzle cakes at this PTA mum's head?

There was a thread years ago about a lady who took in a stray dog that then gave birth to puppies. She live posted the whole thing and it was really wholesome.

Another one was along the lines of "what is the most PFB thing you did" and a lady posted that she had adopted or fostered a baby with a difficult start and she was obsessed with the fact the baby hadn't done tummy time. She put the baby on its tummy and danced in front with novelty animal slippers on as entertainment. Always makes me chuckle, along with a lot of other posts on that thread.

Loved Ford Ranger and Sistine Chapel too, and was devastated for poor Pamela.

The cheese in coffee is a myth.

It was really:
Mum of toddler was worried about the toddler getting calcium if she couldn't find fresh milk.
Someone asked if the child liked cheese, because if so, it was a good source of calcium.
Someone else said "pffft, so these lockdown lovers are suggesting we put cheese in our coffee are they?"

And the myth was born. (A poster actually changed their name to cheeseincoffee which just showed they should have RTFT!)

"Could it have been a hedgehog?"

OP: " I've never heard a hedgehog ask for a finger up the bum"

😀😁😂

I always think about the poster called coastsprotectionleague (I think) she was all geared up to leave her cheating husband, had stashed things away like toiletries and upgraded phones ans tech etc before she confronted him, I think she was going to do it with a male friend thay her husband held in high regard. This was all before lockdown 2018 or 2019 I think, anyway I don't think she ever updated on how she was getting on ans from time to time I do think about her and how's she's doing now, if she's met someone new and how the kids are getting on

What was this about please?

Oh yes! I remember that one. It started with a discussion about Muller lights or something then turned into owl hoots. Batshit. Utterly batshit.

It's probably already been posted, but a single sentence by a poster responding to an OP who couldn't get time to herself on holiday.

The respondent had the same experience and had to instruct her family to go away, whereupon they bobbed up and down in the sea staring at her yearningly "Like shit mermaids"

Best observation ever.

Expat's Aillidh. ❤

I can't remember the thread but it was about a man giving the OP the ick and one of the replies was something like "I can hear the windows MS shut down chimes as my vagina seals up" 😂

Omg and Lucky Barry! The poo that disappears without flushing

@Peach0123

I was following the one about the husband crying in the garden, but didn’t get as far as any answers for what was going on. What did it turn out to be please?
