And “Your minge!”

(I don’t remember fish slice and sex lube, though 🤔)

Today’s MN posters would never believe the “Your minge!” thread. It was the funniest thread ever on this site when we all a lot less cynical.

(I don’t remember fish slice and sex lube, though 🤔)

I'd forgotten "Your minge!", that had me in stitches.

Can't believe Penis Beaker is 13 years old 😱I always think of it as something that came up after I'd been on MN for ages, and that people who joined then are still newbies... But I'd only been here 4 years by then!

Snapped and farted is peak MN. Right down to the ‘I don’t find it funny’ comments.

And given this is a TAAT multiple it will likely be zapped

We live in eternal hope

WallyHilloughby · 22/03/2026 22:57

Someone shouting ‘Willy willy Willy’ at a builder was my personal fave

Morepositivemum · 22/03/2026 22:57

I remember reading ‘snapped and farted’ as it happened and giggling in bed, it was more funny really because op was pissed off that snapped and farted had garnered interest as it just came out of her phone.

Morepositivemum · 22/03/2026 22:58

Ps had heard of the Sistine chapel but not read, day off tomorrow so will read with a cuppa!!!!

Saisong · 22/03/2026 23:01

I remember when all this was fields ... full of wnaky baskets

Strange to think even the Mouldies are mostly forgotten now

Mylovelygreendress · 22/03/2026 23:02

What about the poster whose friend wanted to take her husband on a girls only holiday ?

takealettermsjones · 22/03/2026 23:05

I love super soaker, spoony fucker, and the woman who "made eyes" at the champagne. 🤣

AnAppleAWeek · 22/03/2026 23:05

Who remembers hooting like an owl?

Fillybuster · 22/03/2026 23:10

Cutted-up pear, spiders darking on sheets, penis beaker, quiche, nest of vipers, Cod…the list goes on. Mostly to be found in Classics but generally funnier in the moment. To be fair, some were hilarious at the time (maybe the sleep deprivation helped) . Not really worth trawling unless you’re really really stuck for something to do!

ClairDeLaLune · 22/03/2026 23:12

What is the “Your minge” thread? I’ve been on here for years and don’t remember that! Please could someone link it?

Sadly, the 'Your minge' thread has had the key posts deleted (I think at the poster's request) so if you do a search for it, you only get one side of the conversation, as it were, but I think it was about a catastrophic trip to the swimming pool where her bikini bottoms came off and her husband was frantically mouthing 'your minge! your MINGE!' at her as she stood on the poolside. I think. It was a thread I managed to miss in real time.

I've been here 20 years. TWENTY fucking years. Grin

Found it on this thread (not the original, which may not exist any more) and here is the post:

Found it on another thread. Enjoy!

this has been on here before but it is my most shamefilled moment and i burn red thinking about it...
32 weeks pregnant with dc3 we went swimming, i had put my tankini on at home so i could see if i had a bad bikini line hanging out the bottom of my bottoms.
we went to the baths,dp got dd2 changed and gave me the armbands and rubber ring to 'sort' and so i just took my out door clothes off and 'met them on poolside' i was dutifully inflating the barbie rubber ring\armbands when dp started advancing down the side of the pool mouthing frantically 'wtf are you doing i can see your minge' i was puffing up the inflatables glaring at him as he gestured and mouthed 'your minge,i can see your minge' i looked on the little chair by the poolside and there,neatly folded,underneath the rubber ring were my tankini bottoms.
i don't know why i took them off,but i was stood inflating shit,by the pool while 'family swim' went on beside me.

The thread where the lady forgot her swimming bottoms | Mumsnet

Could anyone kindly link me to the thread where the lady forgot her bottoms. Her husband was trying to alert her. I’ve searched classics.

Poor Julie, I've never forgotten that one either.

Givinguponmyhair · 22/03/2026 23:35

There was one about nachos that I lived but I cant quite remember what it was actually about

Atetoomanynachosagain · 22/03/2026 23:36

Snapped and farted was funny

What about the lasagne and boiled potatoes one?

Lunde · 22/03/2026 23:37

There was the Mexican House thief thread!

I laughed so hard but also felt so sorry for her.
Good on her for laughing about it later.
