Proof I probably spend too much time on here but does anyone else have posters they still think about every now and again?

Mine is the Australian poster whose son was in the abusive relationship and her many threads about helping him get out of the relationship and realizing she was toxic.

Can’t find the threads at all now but I hope her and her son are still doing well!

Does anyone else have stand out posters or threads that stick in their minds?

Sorry. That ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ was to @Whoknowsohyoudo

This is going to sound odd

A woman found something in her garden, I can’t recall what it was, was it a wallet or a phone?☎️ it was a phone maybe and couldn’t explain why it was there

Me too! I often think of her and wonder how she is doing.

She has an instagram account of that name now

edit: re five years left

Phyllis!!!

A very neurotic funny poster who I'm almost certain was a troll.
She posted loads around 2015/2016.

If anyone remembers please link her threads!! So funny.

Also the poster who replied to her own thread 10 years later. She'd originally posted asking for reviews of a certain pram then came back 10 years later saying she loved it and would recommend it!! I think about that probably once a month and give it a wee giggle!

It was made up

Well shit. I hope I have that kind of time to piddle away when my kids are older. When he said they would see each other during the day but never say anything about the tarps I always pictured them saying hello to one another as they pass then quickly walking in their homes and immediately peeking out of curtains at one another.

@Whoknowsohyoudo If you miss him he tried another "hilarious" thread about a car pool

Got his arse handed to him

Why would I miss him and why would I gaf about another post? I posted about it because it was the first I'd ever read so I remember it well and it was "hilarious". So it was made up🤷🏻‍♀️

Yeah that's a big leap all right. He must've really hurt your feelings😥

MyLeftKnee · 03/04/2024 08:17

Yes, Phyllis! Never could work out if she was a spoof or just batshit crazy. I miss her though.

ShatnersWig was a poster I remember for a while. I found him pragmatic and helpful.

TheLittleRedToothbrush still posts occasionally under that name

BashfulClam · 03/04/2024 08:46

catthiefkeith was a great poster I always liked reading her things. Was she the one who suspected her neighbour had been entering her house during the day just to sit about. Candles had recently been lit, kettle still warm etc? Sadly she passed away.

The Sistine chapel lady- wonder if she cried and screamed at any other works of art since.

A few years ago now, I think. A woman who discovered her husband's affair. She used the name John for him. He sounded like such an awful man. Hope she's OK.

Spywoman · 03/04/2024 18:23

@HoneyWogan I came on to ask about this one. I think it was the BiL who stole it.

On a lighter note, I'd love to know what happened with the PTA fundraising night where OP had won a laptop and somebody (one of the organisers or their family member?) came up with excuse after excuse, having stolen her prize. I think that one got deleted in the end - possibly for being outing.

Very frustrating not to find out what happened to it!

I remember Somerville, she was lovely (I was a lurker back then)

She really was. I'd love to know that she's happy and well and I'd also really appreciate her take on what I've got going on.
