Seen on MN- a pitcher on the walls!

Just seen that one 😁

CrocusesFlowering · 03/07/2026 22:45

Saw one yesterday - ’part of the parcel of having teenagers’.

'As much as he could of done more there's no way this bloke should be taking the wrap for this'
(from a post about the Southport taxi driver).

Chersfrozenface · 04/07/2026 09:22

Is taking the wrap like taking the biscuit?

BrickBiscuit · 04/07/2026 09:36

'I don't need posters like you licking me while I'm down.'
Probably a typo rather than a malapropism or anything (and tempered by being from a thread with tragic circumstances), but a rather good double-entendre.

Just seen a "chess pool of bacteria" on the Squishy thread.

'Keep your nib out'

'Keep your nib out'

Stop writing about it 😉

Allseeingallknowing · 04/07/2026 18:57

How very rustic!

'Keep your nib out'

... followed later by 'Aye nib out love'. Am I wrong and it's actually a real idiom?

DeanElderberry · 05/07/2026 09:48

Presumably a minor variant spelling of 'neb'.

Someone’s had an anterior motive for doing something.

Whosthetabbynow · 05/07/2026 17:03

Someone’s boyfriend isn’t at all screamish

Just saw leaving primary school described as a writer passage. That's amazing.

I saw that one too! 😁

JuliettaCaeser · 06/07/2026 16:24

Going to the prom is a writer passage. I mean I eyeroll at right of passage but that is next level!

AlbieJiggered · 06/07/2026 16:44

The engine will have ceased up...

Casterophise about what might happen.
Tripple nationality.
I can’t phantom why this wouldn’t be a direct conversation.

From the post about Farage’s resignation one of his fans said “CLOSE ARE BOARDERS”.
