When I'm angry with him I confess to having:
Hidden his keys
Put out of date food in his lunchbox
Taken the loo roll out of the bathroom
Not told him his Mum has rung...knowing he'd get into big trouble for not ringing back!!!!

Refuse to move the wet towel he's dumped on his side of the bed.

When I am angry with DH I try to express my feelings calmly and directly to him.

Reading this thread is making me feel very old indeed.

I am very ashamed to say that when DH was being an utter arse on polling day I voted Lib Dem, just because he is a rabid tory and hates them.

ExDP once hid my chocolate, so I filled his coat pockets with rice Grin

Hobnob that's ace. Have you confessed to him yet, or are you saving that for a special occasion? Grin

I password protected the sports channels as his team were playing an important game and I was out of signal when he realised so the increasingly irate messages made for an interesting read.

To this day he can't see the funny side.

Dirty socks next on the floor next to the laundry basket might have once found their way into his pillowcase.............Grin

Flask cup which he brings home and leaves next to the sink every night withour washing it just finds itself bing put in cupboard unwashed as the friggin fairy didn't come along and do it Grin

Talkings fine but when you've banged on about it or long enough,actions speak louder than words Grin

It's all done in jest. Humour helps Wink

socks no I haven't told him, I just secretly smile about it when he's being a knob.

Wait until he is in the shower then flush the toilet or run the cold tap. The water gets hotter. Or I wait until he is in the shower then throw a cup of cold water over him.

When I was young and foolish Grin I squirted breastmilk into his coffee and did unspeakable things with his toothbrush.

I have also given him a two fingered salute behind his back, more than once.

Nowadays, I find it is far more effective to just tell him exactly why I'm pissed off.

Unfortunately, I tell him for so long and in such great detail that he ends up offering me his arm and inviting me to draw the blood I appear to be wanting from him Grin

I have sent myself flowers and then phoned him to thank him, and when he denies they are from him, I just tell him to stop being silly. That always gets him a little worried.

ExP was a royal shit.... I 'forgot' to tell remind him that the clocks had gone back until he was fully dressed and on his way out of the door.
If he irritated me, he wouldn't listen to what the problem was so I just used to stop washing his clothes until he noticed. Sadly, very effective!
