MN Topics - change a letter (or two)

136 replies

TalcAndTurnips · 30/07/2014 21:09

We've had films and television programmes - now it is time to customise MN into a different beast altogether.

May I start by offering:

Am I being unseasonable? - Bah humbug. Christmas haters sign in here.

General Wealth - A place better-off contributors to post about how brilliant it is to be fecking loaded. Boasting not even remotely stealthy. Share your woes about having to run two homes; how blimming hot it is in the Maldives and how tricky it is to drive a gigantic black shiny car around Bayswater.

Good Lousekeeping - Not everyone hates nits. Share tips on how to make them breed faster and infest as many heads as possible.

Mite Stuff - Similar to Good Lousekeeping, but smaller.

Flounder's Corner - A place to discuss sea-floor issues, including how bloody stupid it looks when both eyes are on one side of your head.

I may have tried this one already. Can't remember. I am old so you'll just have to put with it, I'm afraid.

Antenatal vests/choices - Find where to get flared ones that will go over your bump.

Farting/5:2 diet - Discussions revolving around the 5 cans-of-beans:2 curry-a-day diet that is all the rage amongst flatulence fans.

Have you been this? - Topic for MNers who think they might have had a past life.

The Great Outdoers - Thread for annoying bastards whose house/car/child/holiday is definitely better than anything you've got.

Pens - You remember - those things you used to write with before you got addicted to MN. Lively fountain/ball/quill chat.

Hi all,

Thanks for cheering us up with this! We've moved it to classics.

And can I add...
adult non-diction for the sloppy speakers of Mumsnet.

AmyMumsnet · 31/07/2014 12:29

Or maybe we should have moved this to Mirth Announcements where we share all things which have made us laugh.

I'll stop now - promise!
