Threads that have stayed with you

[Cinnamonkie]

What threads have you seen on here that have lodged themselves into your brain?

For me it's the lady who was gifted a periscope by her dh which was completely random and hilarious.

Also the lady who upset a crow and never came back! Assumed she and her dog were eaten by the crows.

The threads by Fifyfomum how sorry I felt for the children but Karma has been served as they started posting antisemitic things on what was then Twitter and has to appear in court next week

The one who was trying to persuade her partner’s girlfriend that she was unreasonable for not getting rid of her dog so that boyfriend could have her home to have his children 50/50 and so she could basically pay off his debts

Ah I'd forgotten about the electrician! Wasn't the OP suspicious about what she'd seen on the Ring doorbell?

Smelbow!!!! 😁

Yikes! I,ve just read the link to the OP Savernake one, that is really scary 😱.

I can’t remember the names of posters. I recently NCd but been here a while.

One where OP was being filmed in the house and she and her DS left and then found out her DP wasn’t who he said he was.

Another where the OP found a mobile on their remote, rural garden. Police came for it I think but no further updates (that I remember).

I still remember the thread about the couple who had an acquaintance invite themselves to stay in spite of getting a firm 'no'. The acquaintance still turned up and lots of fun ensued including discussions of siege equipment to fend her off.

Mine was the woman whose husband was driving her potty about Glastonbury - the lineup, the secret acts, how commercial it is now. Even though he hadn’t been for years. Did he go this year?????

35 weeks pregnant, how to put baby up for adoption one... she was terrified how she'd manage, fantastic, calming advice given re both options, she kept the baby and seemed to be coping well

One from ages ago where the OP was being horribly horribly gaslit ans abuse by the husband and was slowly coming to the realisation that he was hideous. He would do awful things like keep her up all night after she had to breastfeed their baby, making her have sex with him and not letting her 'finish' until he said. It was really frightened me and I hope she managed to get the fuck away from him.

I think of the unresolved toilet paper rationing thread often. Who was it????

A thread earler this year about an allotment purchased with a property. The buyers were trying to evict a woman who was not cooperative at all. I always wondered what the outcome was.

Could someone either link or explain the penis beaker thread? I've seen it mentioned on here over the years but couldn't find it after a search and it's intriguing me as it's been mentioned so many times on here

I'm "fairly" new, but the thread by the lady
whose partner "threw table and chairs" when asked to do his fair share at home.
This was shocking to me, and I'm neither young nor naive.
Hopefully she managed to get rid of that arsehole out of her life.

There was a poster called MyOtherCarisaPorsche whose husband had a serious life threatening heart condition or a burst aneurysm. He was in hospital but had to be transferred urgently and he might die during the transfer. She was getting no answers about his treatment and worried sick. One of the posters was a thoracic surgeon who knew the hospital her husband was at and basically told her who to phone and what to do.

The thread continued and her DH ended up serving but had a complete personality change due to the trauma he'd been though. The poor women was also prividing daily chikdcare for her disabled grandchildren and trying to look after her own health and her husband.

Thoracic surgeon poster really helped her with medical advice but her family life was falling apart as her DH was just becoming unbearable and more and more bizarre with his spending habits snd strange hobbies.

I don't know what happened to her, she sounded wonderful but totally taken advantage of.

It went viral several years ago and a new influx of people discovered MN

Seoladair's threads, although I believe she's still here under a different name. @AcrossthePond55 oh how lovely to hear she might still be around. I think of her too, she was up against a terrible witch and fighting for her child and to lead her own life. She was amazing.

I think about this one all the time too, the posters name was ‘thumbwitchabroad’ or similar but I can’t find the threads anymore. Her situation made me so sad and I always wonder if she and the kids ever made it back to London

It feels like there is a thread like that out weeks!

There was one about a woman complaining about her partner and his carrier bags. Something about he had them folded up in his pockets and wouldnt let her have a bag when they got to the checkout ? Bonkers.

If I remember correctly, the son did break up with the nutty girlfriend.

There was one where the next door neighbour made the DH cry and she never found out why but suspected an affair with the NDN niece or something. Hope that OP got closure.

Betty's Beets Thread 4 is the most recent update from her, I think. The sister of the neighbour who had co-opted the garage from the OP was still around and moaning about the OP and her husband actually enforceing their ownership.

The woman whose daughter was doing Gcse exams. Her family invited them over but deliberately kept quiet about how they were all recovering from the norovirus. The poor child had to do all her important exams while constantly throwing up in a bucket in a separate room. When the OP told her family,they berated her for trying to make them feel guilty. My blood still boils thinking about that poor OP and kid and her ignorant, selfish family.

The women who had the two from the flats behind having sex in her hedge. She’d not lived there long I think, and her dog wouldn’t pee on its own or something odd so she was at the bottom of the garden and heard these two regularly. Then her neighbour got involved too.

I laughed and laughed.
