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 )

I was thinking HC will be quite pleased, now when anyone mentions vulvas it will be a toss up whether we think of her or UCM

this one HAS to be quote of the week

I have heard that it is good for your hair (semen, that is, not taking it up the arse)

The best ones are nearly always the rudest ones

Shame they are not going to make it onto the newsletter

The Daily Mail are about to run an article about how research has shown that taking it up the arse is good for the condition of your hair...

Well, anything is possible

nomination for this weeks' quote
I won't attribute it as that'd be mean, but it's a brilliant typo and should be recognised:

I shall come to you when I next lose my keys and lick myself out

You beat me to it MrsB.

Have you seen essbee around anywhere?

If we can't nominate anything from that thread everybody loves so much, please can we at least applaud this post-script on Arts and Crafts:

"Then I thought, it's not as if I gave my tortoise a blowjob or anything..... "

Any more?

Bump - need suggestions from the past week.

"is there no end to the things that people will wang up their flaps"

Hilarious

Moondog here on overzealous parental use of sun cover

"Get a grip.It's Scunthorpe,not the bloody Gobi desert."

deffo Moondogs

(I seem to be nominating her every week )

Love Moondog's Scunthorpe/Gobi desert quote!

Here's one for this week, from NQC:

"I'm going to have to learn to enjoy arguing with people whose bottoms I wipe, aren't I. That will be work."

Which thread's that from, Zooey?

I vote for suzywong

"DS1 is preparing a brief on an update and general overhaul of the Suzuki violin method, it's his hobby horse atm, and ds2 is annotating War and Peace from a Gramscian Perspective."

I really like this:

"Bloody hell, you lot aren't exactly the Mary Poppins type are you ? "

because it shows that sometimes the response you get is not quite what you wanted to hear.

(Was from last week mind)

How about this from WigWamBam?

"Depression's like that. It doesn't give a shit what it does, or who it does it to. It's a hateful, crappy illness and if I could poke it in the eye for you (and for me) I would."

this one, munkerpops

It just struck me as a funny and rather poignant realisation about parenthood

Thank you, Zooey - a very good and enlightening read. Just what MN's about, really, in fact!
