Unless your brother in law is trying to lease an Audi campervan from a crazy chinese lady in order to transport logs for your woodburner, which you need to heat the sudocreme for your cat, whilst you sit with your disco slipper clad feet up and sip a cup of chamomile tea to calm your nerves after having attacked a burglar with a set of suspension forks because he was trying to steal your supply of powerful laxatives, to fund his pilgrimage to the grave of Joe Cocker, then probably not.
Brexit.
Yip, the epic that is Brexit in/out shake it all about.
Thanks Matt.
Joe Cocker is dead?

Oh sorry, that's not what I meant. The Brexit thread is awful. I was just making sure Brexit got a mention on this thread too, so that no thread avoids Brexit.
I am not sure which impresses me more about perchy's response: that he thought about what he wrote so quickly, or that he was able to type it so fast.
Probably both.
This is my kung fu and it is strong. 😉
What was perchy on about? I didn't understand any of it.
He missed Magnetodog, so I'm afraid it's a 'No' from me.

We all miss Magnetodog 🙁

Yeah but missed Backdoor to Centreparks parks, wifi wife, plugged bar end, allotment boundaries with Kylie on a Friday
so 5/10
Perchy is really very quick witted.
I wonder sometimes if he has multiple log ins, poses a question as one person then answers a witty retort in the same thread as another.. 🍯🍆
.. and celebrity TV presenter gossip/praising. That's the new and exciting discussion topic. This thread could never beat such thrills.
I don't really speak emoji .
I don't know whether I should be offended by this or not?
Surely PuddingGate was the best thread ever?
No Badger/Stan's, no baby robbins, no octoporn and no rainbows or unicorns. Perchy covered so much and yet there is so much more. Reminds me how entertaining this place used to be 😉
Give me a break....there are only so many memes and tropes that you can shoehorn into a single, continuous, narrative sentence.
I'm doing the best I can here.
Penis Beaker thread on MumsNet beats this place hands down.
Louise. Just saying.
And what's Magnetodog?
Perchy's post also completely avoided any mention of bicycles!
And what’s Magnetodog?
The stuff of legend. Sadly missed.

Entirely in keeping with the forum then?
One word ends all discussion......Picolax
Picolax, idave, that key ring bloke, so many greats
I feel another issue is now worthy of an entry in the STW museum....The Great 'new forum' debacle of 2018!
I seem to remember the stalking gym girl thread kept up the mystery and anticipation because it lasted weeks. Plus (I think) it had lots of top tips from (was it?) Sir Hora.
Messiah's nettle thread is also a worthy contender. Missed.
Sudocreme Cat
Picolax
Louise
Badger
And please may I apologise for the Brexit thread. Sometimes you have no idea what you started...
I wonder sometimes if he has multiple log ins, poses a question as one person then answers a witty retort in the same thread as another..
Yes, I do.
Just a tribute
Magnetodog! Brilliant! Thanks for the link.
Sudocreme cat all the way for me. It just kept giving.
Hora/'My Old Man'.
The Tune Association thread.
Something to do with Seagulling.
Describe an album cover.
Change a movie title.
I like the Arkose thread for the enthusiasm and respect shown by both the owners and the designer.
A couple of the depression threads changed my life.
Fred's architecture threads.
Too many to think of.
The Kaese (sp) thread ended up being significant and sad, not great but one that should be remembered.
Yes, I do.
....and these ridiculous shoes are hurting my feet.
Rachel
Just thinking about him and a few others we've lost.
Mr Barnes is often In my thoughts.
Change a movie title.
Yeah, that was ace, the remove a letter from the movie title.. or the replace a word to make another movie..
I sat in many a conference call s****ing to those threads..
Hey. This is all getting a bit sentimental.
It's time to say something funny or stupid in order to raise the tone!
I think the upgrade has been fab.
(in response to "say something stupid [s]or funny[/s]")
For me Magnetodog was laugh out loud funny and still raises a smile. RIP Magnetodog never forgotten.
I also am quietly proud of the irony of the Chamomile tea meme which, whilst not as epic as Matt's Brexshit thread, exemplifies why some people just need to calm TF doon!
Messiah’s nettle thread is also a worthy contender. Missed.
I totally don't remember that one, remind me?
I think the upgrade has been fab.
What?
To Thunderbird 2 ?
Virgil?
Is that you?
This thread would be better with links to all the other threads for those of us that missed them
Surely the 'epic flounce by Surfmatt' thread has to be a contender: it was toe-curlingly awful watching someone declare their 'awesomeness' in such a gloriously self-destructive manner.
This thread would be better with links to all the other threads for those of us that missed them
I bloody bored. Let me give it a go...
Messiah’s nettle thread is also a worthy contender. Missed.
If that's the one I think it is, I think it's best forgotten.
Long ago there was a thread about tea making that I appreciated by how very self aware and meta it was. Plus Chipps replied to my comment about teasmaids and kept the analogy going wonderfully.
Might just be me cos it doesn't get mentioned as often as the ones above (or at all) but my favourite was McMoonter's "what do I do with these storm blown trees" one. Pretty much followed closely by every other thread McMoonter has started, ever.
Lots of amusing threads but my favourite which is still going strong is the "What is the last thing you made" 100% positive and inspiring.
"Argh, my eye" has got to be a contender.
Just using the unscientific 'what is the first one that springs to mind' method was the "You have taken my sport away from me" rant someone launched at Superstar Components.
Thirty-three tooth narrow/wide was a particular highlight for me too - and the fact that a few people were genuinely taken in by it for a bit.
wifi-wife. It's for things like this the internet was made for.

Honourable or maybe dis-honourable mention for Fatsimon's shagging thread!
If you're going to read any of the ones I posted, may I suggest "nettles"..
I didn't see that film thread first time, but I preferred the one where you remove one letter from the title, give a synopsis and let people guess what it is.
I lol'ed at:
There's a ghostly papermill in the field at the end of my garden
and particularly
A really really horrid man from Monte Cristo.
As Cougar said up there^^ (still can’t get quote to work) Argh, my eye is brilliant. I also love Gifs you can watch all day and the Lings cars thread.
What is the last thing you made, thread.
I know piss all about Brexit, or TM cricket, but I can whittle a spot of wood so it's nice to have a thread I can contribute to.
Really love seeing all that folks make. It's very inspiring.
Always love the weekly weekend riding pics threads too.
the one where you remove one letter from the title

Indoor / outdoor boyfriend?
Just tread through the wife signal. That has, quite frankly, made my day!
I used to like the Photos thread, but amongst it it got a bit “that’s shit”, “why is it?”, “the people in it look staged”
and so on.
Some wonderful photos in it though.
Been some good "Can you help with a Photoshop" ones too... the bakery tricycle one springs to mind...
Kayak's shed thread and mcmoonters pool / studio build?
Indoor / outdoor boyfriend?
Ah yes, another thread that reveals [s] the [/s] one of the freak(s) among us.
It’s like Desert Island Threads. “You get the complete works of Binners.”
Something about removing a wasps’ nest from the loft sticks in my mind.
Probably a stupid question, but is there a thread about headsets?
I lol’ed at:

I don't get the first one? The second is brilliant.
Can anyone bring up 'meeting Dave in the woods' thread from geetee1973?
please
Probably a stupid question, but is there a thread about headsets?
A thread about head-what?

Yeah! but you didn't like to say so as not to offend the culprits (some of them regular posters!) 😆

I can't find it,but way back ,essel (of gruntfuttock fame) posted a photo from a sea fishing trip asking what people thought this object out at sea could be.
Some of Jamie's photoshop posts were coffeeoverkeboardtastic.
