Nothing controversial, nothing funny, inspiring etc.
All there are is 10 million threds about the snow (we're talking about the weather people!) and how much we all dislike the new mumsnet...

Is it just me? Where are all the weird and wacky threads?

I ate a banana.

beanieb · 02/02/2009 14:10

I just ate an apple.

Rhubarb · 02/02/2009 14:11

It was screaming, pleading for it's life. But I slowly skinned it alive and then bit into it whilst the other fruit, including the baby bananas, were forced to watch and wait their turn!

I just had tomato soup for lunch and it was a bit too sweet.

And I got a gnarly bit of tomato in my mouth and it kinda spoilt it for me.

So I had to have 3 choccy bikkies to make up for it.

lmao!
i just ate a fried egg.
i wonder if the hisses were actually the egg screaming as it died a grisly (and crispy) death

I'm now torturing maltesers, I don't even want to eat them, I'm just doing it for the hell of it really.

I've had three pieces of home made honey flap jack and it was yummy.

YABVU.

Instead of complaining, how about YOU start something controversial, funny or inspiring.

Nup, didn't think so

Rhubarb · 02/02/2009 14:17

Go on then! I'll go in on the side of ff, just for a laugh!

Rhubarb · 02/02/2009 14:18

Or how about, "I went out and smoked 10 fags and drank 5 pints last night, I'm 6 months pregnant, do you think I should have had some more?"

Did you not see the suicide thread the other day?

If you fancy being even more bored a challenge you could try my thread about the definition of reasonableness

suicide thread not funny, but very lively.

ladycornyofsilke · 02/02/2009 14:20

I just ate a milky bar and I didn't really want it. That's true cruelty to confectionery.

fuckerForAValentine · 02/02/2009 14:20

what about a poll

what is the best fruit?

apples or oranges < yawn >

Rhubarb · 02/02/2009 14:21

No-one ever accuses me of being a troll. Might try and get Morty accepted by the child modelling brigade again.

JollyPirate · 02/02/2009 14:21

Are you a Moldie?

mm22bys · 02/02/2009 14:22

But I like doing my disapproving / sceptic look .

MrsSeanBean · 02/02/2009 14:22

I can start a thread asking why all the unemployed people I know have more disposable income that I do, if you like.

Rhubarb · 02/02/2009 14:23

Here you go!
