As my partner has pooed himself in public, infront of his work mates, after one too many. I am revolted, absolutely revolted..

This thread had me nearly wetting myself!! As a navy wife I guessed he was a matelot right away!! Whenever DH goes on a (thankfully rare) ship's night out, I've found the best idea is to drink lots of wine before he gets home, so whatever state he is in I can see the funny side! Good luck with the wedding!

my friends dh (army) shat himself on a nightout while wearing a kilt, luckily he had a pair of boxers on underneath, he was desperate and standing outside a pub begging for them to let him in but they said he was to drunk and refused.

we only found out a few weeks later that after he got home that night he shagged my friends mum (his mil) who was sleeping on the couch. he was also still "smeary" at this point, so things could be worse smallships.

Carmenere · 21/06/2008 21:21

you mean his mil, who wasn't blind drunk, knowingly had sex with her sil

kerryk · 21/06/2008 21:24

yes, she is not what you would call an ideal mum. she knew that the wife of the couple who stay over from my friend was away that night so she had stripped of and walked naked into there house to try and seduce the man. he sent her packing but her sil seen that she was not left frustrated!!!

my friend and have have split up for the moment but she is hoping to sort things out with him (no idea why) but she has cut ties with her mum.

Carmenere · 21/06/2008 21:27

Ugh how horribly Trisha, I hope your friend sees sense and has nothing more to do with either of them.

Izzywhizzy · 21/06/2008 21:28

Jesus KerryK!

Your friend's situation sounds like one of those letters on the Sun problem page. How awful for her!! And what a total cow of a 'mother'.

ok, it was funny enough that he shat himself at the pub, but to be dressed as an elf. that gave me the giggles i needed today. thanks. still marry him though, just talk about this shitting/vomiting thing and what his limit actually is. good luck.

man, that was funny.

Have you ever dressed as an elf and remained continent though?

okeydokeygirl · 22/06/2008 21:01

If this was a one off and a bit of an unfortunate accident then yes it is a bit funny albeit humiliating. But Smallships, you referred earlier to the fact that he always gets into a bit of a state when he drinks, which is why he rarely drinks. An alcoholic is not just someone who needs to drink everyday, it is also someone that has no control over his or her drinking, even if that drinking is just once a month or less. If someone completely loses their bodily functions and/or inhibitions when drunk, that is a really serious problem. It might be something you can work through but having been there myself (pissed on several times by partner, not to mention the number of times he has pissed in other really inappropriate places after crashing out) take it from me, it is a horrible thing to have to deal with and not something to take lightly. I know it seems funny to other people, and maybe this is just a funny incident, but if not, you are in for a hell of a ride. Maybe he does this more often and you are not aware of it, or it maybe be a habit from the past that he has been able to control. Have a good think about it. Calling off the wedding may be a bit drastic but you really need to know what you are letting yourself in for.

You have made my day and it's only 6.30am. ROFL
DD2 wants to know why mummy is crying.

Picante · 17/01/2009 08:02

Nobody mentioned a nomination for Mumsnet Classics....?

RipMacWinkle · 17/01/2009 08:12

Oh jeez I remember this thread from last year (and I think of it whenever I see smallships name - sorry!!)

Just what I needed on a grim Saturday morning.

Cheers Jacksmama for digging it out.

LilRedWG · 08/04/2010 14:58

DD has just asked me why I'm laughing. How do I explain to a three year old it's because, "he dressed as an elf (not sure why) so i think the pub may have noticed the stinking elf shitting himself in the corner " is the funniest thing I've read for months.

StealthPolarBear · 08/04/2010 14:59

Yes, I think about this every time I see SmallShips

Eurgh. I would. At least in the short term, sounds like he has an issue. That is the sort of thing 13 year olds do - not full grown men.

bibbitybobbityhat · 09/04/2010 14:06

Oh dear, poor SmallShips . She namechanged for quite a long time didn't she, but is back as SS now. But this thread will never go away . I believe it was even nominated in mnhq's "Most Memorable Threads Of The Decade" thing they did for their 10th birthday party.

Heh heh.

Amapoleon · 24/04/2010 23:20

Did you ever find out why he was dressed as an elf?

gtamom · 25/04/2010 02:26

I am on page 5, dying to see pic of elfman but your profile won't reveal itself to me.
