Thought I would create a thread for all the everyday irritations that are too petty to share but get your blood up. Whether your oestrogen and agreeableness has deserted you or you are just generally feeling a bit pissed off with things- I feel it’s always better to get it off your chest. And in that spirit-I will begin…

I have a lovely relationship with Vinted (I buy too much shit on here) but it really gets on my nerves when people:

  1. post photos of shoes with foot cheese evident all over the soles (ick).
  2. soneone posts something with a stain saying ‘it will come out in the wash’. So wash it you dirty gopper.

Also ‘DH’ stop leaving your dribbling toothbrush and bog blocking shites in the loo for me to tackle. Fucking beast.

That is all today.

Possibly…..

Frigging flies in the house. Especially the one bastard that I just can't get rid of in the lounge. It's been buzzing around me for 3 days now.

@Bolloxtoitall agree with you about the bog blocking poos/turds 🤬🤬🤢🤣🤣
My son does this but he's very good at unblocking the toilet now.
I refused to do it and waited for him to get home 🤣

shellyleppard · 16/06/2026 10:58

Waiting for a delivery/collection but no specific time given....but just had an email saying I'm number 9 on the collection list!! Whoop whoop!! 😁 🤣
Also my son went on his first holiday. Assured me he had dealt with all his dirty washing on holiday.....came back with a bloody suitcase full 🙄🤬🤬🤬🤬
Second load on right now.

Arthritis because I wanted to go for a long walk. The weather, because I'm cold. Vet bills. In fact, fucking everything. 😡

dh is updating his phone contract. I DO NOT NEED A RUNNING COMMENTARY about how shocking the vodafone website is, or how difficult it is to understand the contract variations, or how he now needs another password. If you need to speak out loud when you're on your computer please go into another room!

Oh and in the space of my writing this he's told me twice that he thinks he's saved £17.

My response "Ah that's nice dear". What I wanted to say was "I'm not f'**ing interested"

Edited

Are you me lol

Ah! Yes - yea olde info dump about stuff I couldn’t give a shiny shite about. This includes protracted conversations on anything contract/white goods and Which recommendations/ your electric car and tariffs (the fuck) and the sense in putting the white good on in the early hours re cheap tariff. Also never wanting to buy a carrier bag and preferring to juggle the shit to the car on point of principle…

Oh yes and switching off lights.

So weird.

We are not poor/up against it.

He doesn’t mind trading his car in every few months with the cost that involves!

The AIBU board!
So many women just accepting that their men - do not clean, do not bathe the children, do not..., do not....
And these women all work FT jobs and/or pay most of the bills.
How did we end up here and why are we propping up pointless men?

Colds are shite. Fuckers.

Yes, yes re the laissez-faire attitude of tradies re your time. My experience is they have a very keen sense of their own and always crack our the door at 3/4pm no matter what time they deign to turn up…

Also Next sizing. Make it make sense you twats.

Next sizing. Half their essentials t shirts are M L XL - the others 12 14 16. All seem completely random in their actual sizing and cannot get the same top online as in store. Completely and utterly random.

Waiting on a plasterer to board my bathroom wall. Was told yesterday “first thing in the morning.” Now it’s “we’re not sure.” Angry Hardly has an emergency job before coming who even has emergency plastering jobs?! All tradesmen grind my gears.

This bloody cold. Sick of it.
