Crackers you've read on MN

Just a bit of fun. I've read some really awful threads on MN, then there in the comments is that poster that says something hilarious. I've got a few stored in my head.

In relation to a cheat going to the OW - "they think the grass is greener on the other side because it's covered in bullshit'

A post about partner being friends with the opposite sex, someone told a story of their other half getting 'mentionitis' about another woman who turned out to be cheating

And my favourite, a poster had took back a guy after a few break ups to which someone responded 'that's like fishing shite out the toilet- just flush'.

Anybody else got comments stuck in their mind for any future reference that fits or just me Grin

Thanks for this thread - it's made me laugh out loud and cheered me up. So many threads are antagonistic and gloomy these days.

I loved 'Colonel Gadaffi' - I only have to think about it and I laugh out loud.

Not quite the same, but my favourite ever Mumsnet thread was Elderly Korean Lady. Gives me a warm glow just thinking about it.

Can anyone link the Angela Hernandez one please ?

ImnotCarolineHirons · 25/11/2020 22:25

@LunaNorth oh god yes that thread was great. My next name change may be KeyboardTits Grin

Dear Reader, I urge you to not read this thread while eating a Hob Nob.

BearandaSpare · 25/11/2020 22:45

The fat balls one was so funny, when he thought they were artisan scotch eggs and didn’t wonder what the twigs were for 🤣

WarmSausageTea · 25/11/2020 22:45

3rdName, the thread is somewhere in Classics, but the OP has since deregistered, so all their posts have been deleted, and the thread itself is like Swiss cheese.

Someone being described as 'an awful cunt for the butter', I could definitely relate.

TR888 · 25/11/2020 22:58

I remember a hilarious thread about random substitutes in supermarket home deliveries. One poster ordered raspberries and she got raspberry-flavoured condoms 😂.

In another supermarket thread, people were having a laugh at the text messages you get to let you know your shopping it's on it's way. One poster had a message saying that their delivery man (who was Portuguese) would soon be arriving: "Jesus will be bringing your shop at X time" - cue remark: "only in Ocado".

Charmkin trying to do links in her 'what do you think of this dress?' thread.

Someone said ' snurk, she can't do links and no one likes the dress'

Hilarious thread

Bloodybridget · 25/11/2020 23:05

I remember a year or so ago, a brilliantly typo, "boil in the vag rice"!

Bloodybridget · 25/11/2020 23:05

My own not so brilliant(ly) typo there!

Nicknacky · 25/11/2020 23:06

cattenberg I lived on a bus route as a child. My sister told me that hand gesture meant “hello”. I said “hello” to all the bus drivers.

Bamboo15 · 25/11/2020 23:09

I can’t believe fat balls has only been mentioned twice!

GreenClock · 25/11/2020 23:11

Loving this thread!

Hailtomyteeth · 25/11/2020 23:16

The awful cunt for the butter was two respectable Irish ladies, I think.

Love the dining table sitting there like a cunt.

HeIsAVeryBadBoy · 25/11/2020 23:18

Somebody calling Michael Buble a 'slimy, Christmas cunt' is up there with my favourites.

Mrsfrumble · 25/11/2020 23:19

Fat balls might be my all-time-favourite MN thread. Every so often “artisanal scotch egg” will pop into my head and make me snort.

Jacob Rees-Mogg ejaculating dust is going to have the same effect.

I remember this! Wasn't it Jesus in the cabbage van?

Howling at the parents doing wanking hand gestures Grin

friskybivalves · 25/11/2020 23:34

Can any old timers link to the Yoni one which amazingly I saw unfurl in real time about 100 years ago?

ImnotCarolineHirons · 25/11/2020 23:37

Yes there is a poster who still has the name JesusintheCabbageVan Smile

MrsMarrio · 25/11/2020 23:44

Some of these have made my day! So glad I made this thread

I'm now delving into the depths of old threads to get the context of these beauties!

Loving the Christmas parking sign

There was a hilarious thread about an op whose ex had fed the kids badger and one of the replies was along the lines of “maybe it came from the sett menu” that I couldn’t stop laughing over

GlummyMcGlummerson · 25/11/2020 23:53

These are BRILLIANT!!

I've got about 20 in my head of course but can I remember a single one? Can I fuck

MaddeningtheUnhelpful · 26/11/2020 00:01

The one where there was an Irish lady, I think it was a bin situation. Anyway she put out Officer Olaf Grin loved that thread
