Best ever thread titles - help please!

JustineMumsnet · 23/06/2008 09:19

Morning all,
I'm just penning the foreward of our Toddlers book and want to try and give a taste of Mumsnet in all its glory. I was thinking that a good way to do that using the best/funniest/most bizarre thread titles. I've got a brain like a sieve though and can't remember any - can you help? (Please!)

what was the one about the hamster in the garden (or a dt's poo)? that had me in fits every time...hang on....

umberella · 23/06/2008 09:22

Multiple births: D'y ever wonder if that's a hamster in the garden or just a DT's poo? [groin]

umberella · 23/06/2008 09:23

I mean, groin???!!!

Boco · 23/06/2008 09:24

ALL the 10/10 vegger titles are genius.

daftpunk · 23/06/2008 09:26

deffo...the "i love rocket and roll put another lime in the fruit bowl baby" was pure class! lol

HeadFairy · 23/06/2008 09:30

the 10/10 ones are great, "kale and peas softly with his song anyone"?

WigWamBam · 23/06/2008 09:36

"Help!! DD has done a wee in her patent leather kickers ......."

Which, of course, everyone read as something else

OverMyDeadBody · 23/06/2008 09:45

"Does anyone else make Shredded Wheat?" had me roffling

ranting · 23/06/2008 09:48

Yep I think the shredded wheat one summed mn up nicely. Had visions of organised mothers all over the land grating wheat (along with fingers) into a bowl.It's one of those threads, you've just got to open, just to see if someone actually does.

The Cunting Sainsburys one

Somehow I reckon that one won't make it into a book

WWB I did misread that one (Kewcumber is trying to arrange a MoFo's meeting, did you see the thread?)

BlueDragonfly · 23/06/2008 10:38

was going to suggest the cunting sainsbury one

but seeing as we are talking toddlers it has to be one from the cube of poo thread! I can't remember the title off the top of my head but its something like "is that pate...no IT'S POO" (well it is in my head lol!)

Behaviour / development: I can only sleep when I touch you mummy and if you walk more than two paces from me I will scweam and scweam and scweam til snot fills my cot and I drown....

peasholme · 23/06/2008 11:01

Bird in my loft! Bird in my loft! was always my favourite. but I killed that thread and I never did find out what happened.
Agree with the 10/10 titles. Top notch.

fryalot · 23/06/2008 11:01

I think that the cube of poo features in "memorable poos in inappropriate places"

Kindersurprise · 23/06/2008 11:10

My favourite one was Cunting Sainsburys, not sure if that is the one that will get all the buyers of the book to log onto MN though.

The 10/10 ones are genius.

Memorable poos is great, as is the thread.

And I loved the one about someone doing something small that stayed with you forever, LL started it I think.

the macaroon incident is a good one

have been searching for the cube of poo thread (the original one) and Caitlin Moran apparently quoted it in an article, maybe its linked there?. i haven't got time to look now (viewing a house -hoorah!) will search later

BlueDragonfly · 23/06/2008 11:23

oh! what about the hamster thread> that must have had a funny title

TooTicky · 23/06/2008 11:27

All the 10/10 ones obviously.

Miaou · 23/06/2008 11:47

Darnit, WWB beat me to the patent leather kickers one

I love the 10/10 ones!
