Mumsnet Talk: Quote of the Week - Suggestions Wanted

[AbbyMumsnet]

Hi all,
We thought it would be fun to include a "Quote of the Week" from Mumsnet Talk in our weekly newsletter, as a sort of celebration of all that is LOL funny - if not slightly surreal - and unique about Mumsnet. Please post your suggestions here. (And do try and keep 'em clean )

\link{http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk?topicid=1375&threadid=182359&stamp=060619143559\Legendary poo thread.}

it should def be "is this Pate?" "No its a cube of shit!"

Keep 'em coming - although I'm loving the square poo.

not sure how risqué the newsletter gets, but my vote is definitely for

minge maintenance is meant to be a minimal intervention process

"When I see their little shining faces and strong bodies,exuding energy ,and then see what they are fuelling themselves with,I want to take said cheese strings and garotte their parents"

I rather like that one.

I do like ArseBiscuits.

Probably not what you're after...

Someonme said on Lemmingswifes' 'my marriage is over' thread something like:
"guilt achives nothing but uses up a lot of emotional energy"

I think that should be posted at the top of every thread on MN!

"Not even if pliers were attached to my nipples and a live rat trapped under a bowl on my stomach with a fire on top. "

Moondog

Californifrau (again) on Tuesday, on putting off an overenthusiastic HV:

we began weaning on ficticious parsnip and progressed to several other fantasy veg

Whizzz on the babybot thread:

"Always sniff before you kiss"

another vote for 'is that you UCM' - been crying with laughter here!

sorry, it's this thread

ucm, defo

Loved the cube of poo... Cappucino on the trivial happiness

"this is so funny

'women today say nothing makes them happier than clean laundry and a good sneeze'

ffs"

and SD with

"Oh, I just say "I have no idea. She's my third." when people ask how old she is."

its got to be the first two posts on ucm's fishy ladygarden thread i'm afraid (sorry ucm). that was funniest thing i've read in ages. (not your problem ucm but the failed name change etc. sorry again!)

The UCM thread IS a classic but I do feel slightly for her, to make her humiliation even more well publicised.
this isn't funny but it struck a chord with me,
"what I mean is if your life IS going to school etc etc
then you must dress nicely or it's like you are on an eternal waiting for godot moment"

cod on the Education thread
I can't believe the school gate is a fashion parade
(HEAVILY CORRECTED BTW)

Without the editing it's an even better quote of the week, hc (will convince newbies that cod speaks another language )

if oyur life IS g oing to shcool etc etc
then you must dres snicely or its like you are on a n eternal waitign for godot moment

yep, the real patois there Jan

I was thinking that that was amazingly well written for Cod. Also that I agree with every word of it (not doing a face anymore as I seem to be agreeing with Cod all too often these days...).

Wahay, the moondog one won!!

Thank you, thank you whoever put the link up to the UCM thread....was having a cr*p morning, dh away on business, dd got awful virus but that thread.....oh, still laughing out loud now. GOD BLESS YOU!

I was stil laughing about UCM in bed last night
