For my ndn.
Elderly man died in November.. Same week we moved in. Never actually saw him.
He owns a huge mahoosive and loud ddog..
Which the family took away and by the looks of it struggle to manage him.
As in struggle to manage to get it to stfu.
They are obviously clearing and cleaning the house to sell. (fingers crossed)
They bring Brutus (nc so not to bark- shame the twat)

Shall I buy them a pineapple to help things along?
Possibly bake some bread and hope the smell filters through?
My head can't take it any longer..
Proved today the woman there (dd /dsis?) was cleaning the sills as it threw itself against the glass trying to eat me. She didn't flinch. Didn't move it or acknowledge it's behaviour is ott...
What thing do you want to assist with irl but sadly can't?
Have a car towed?
Cut a lawn in a jungle garden?
Rehome a ndn's ddog /dcat /dc?
Remove vocal cords from a singing ndn?
Post your vents here....

I loved that thread and really wanted the stunt washing up area

All these newbies don’t know about stunt pineapples 🤷‍♀️

I've been on Mumsnet for 8+ years.
Never heard of a stunt pineapple.

To be fair, the whole post is absolutely bizarre.

I've read the OP several times and it still makes no sense whatsoever.

Any chance you could come back and re-word it?

I thought you were meant to put a pineapple upside down in your shopping trolley if you are trying to attract a mate

God, yes, that was deeply odd, from what I remember. There was an entire ‘for show’ washing up area, with artful wooden-handled washing up brush and expensive washing-up liquid in a nice bottle? Neither of which could ever, obviously, be used. I think the ‘for show’ stuff only came out when there were visitors? Though what happened if helpful visitors started washing up using the ‘for show’ equipment I don’t know — did the OP smile graciously over her horror, like an 18thc host at a guest who took a slice of the rented pineapple? Or lunge at them, teeth bared?

No idea what the pineapple is about but i suspect they haven’t got probate granted yet so can’t sell, seems they are prepping the house to sell as soon as they get probate granted

They’re clearing their dead dad’s house while trying to manage his dog. I’m sure you’ll get a deserved “fuck off” if you turn up on their doorstep smirking about how quickly you want them to sell.

This.
And re Proved today the woman there (dd /dsis?) was cleaning the sills as it threw itself against the glass trying to eat me.
How close were you to their house for it to dk that?! @Easterbunnygettingsorted

Wait with the what now? Confused

Bears... Beets....Battlestar Gallactica makes as much sense as the OP!!

For some strange reason, the person who supplied the balloons and chair covers for my wedding insisted we have her fake, pink plastic pineapple in the middle of the top table. I've never worked out why. Could it have been a stunt pineapple?

MrsMoastyToasty · 27/03/2025 17:40

I think this is a stunt pineapple.

This thread reminds me of the film The Break-Up with Jennifer A and Vince V and the 'show lemons'
