Mine is technology Angry

First - have been trying to download a new game to PlayStation, first disk was fine. Second disk I keep getting a message when it’s 90% done ‘An error has occurred’. Thanks. Helpful.

Second - laptop is being a bastard and just not doing what I want it to. Which is RESTART for cryin out loud.

Third - MN won’t let me upload pictures for some reason so I had to do my edits, email them to myself then upload from my laptop. All because I’m so invested in a thread about floor plans Grin

Also my sons annoyed me earlier but they get a pass for now as they’ve been in bed a few hours Wink

Every single fucking thing, thats what. I am so so so irritated, by my mother (not her fault, dementia), my elderly neighbour, who is lovely but I just find it difficult some days, mumsnet, my rose wine, my teenage son - I could go on, but I would bore you. I think I shall go and have a bath.

My husband....

Congrats wilson.

DH. We're looking for a house. It's urgent. We need a particularly large place. We're in an expensive area. Yesterday I found something in (under!) budget, on the street we currently live on, with the number of rooms we need, with a whacking great attic/loft space to boot, and DH basically decided he didn't like its face. I know enough about the North Lewisham property market to know that this is a fucking one in a decade property, and he is.not.budging. Grrr.

The way my neighbour parks his car. We have a driveway each, but they have 2 cars and I have 1. So what does he do? Parks one on the drive and one on the road opposite my driveway (not his) so it makes it very difficult for me to get off my drive.

Person who has complained to our landlord that we have .... one bird feeder. We’ve been told to remove it. Said person isn’t even a resident, they are just travelling through.

I'm pissed off that Dp has gone food shopping and hasn't bought any nice snacks for the 2nd week in a row!

Hysterical media. Hysterical mumsnetters. Mumsnetters delighting In fanning the flames.

moomoogalicious · 16/04/2021 20:57

My ds because he's broken his phone a week after getting it.

LindaEllen · 16/04/2021 20:59

My stepsons bedroom. None of my business, but when I've just had to go in there and remove 8 of our 10 towels, 16 forks, 4 mugs, 8 knives, 6 bowls and 4 spoons I could just about give up.

His room can look however he wants it to look, but fuck me, bring the things back that the rest of us need to use.

FWIW he's not actually allowed to eat in his room (because he does the above) so I'm not sure how he's managed to get that much past us.

Twat on fb market place

My kitchen tap exploded off

AdelaideK · 16/04/2021 21:06

Annoying kids playing football outside my house and not their own houses.

KurtWilde · 16/04/2021 21:07

My dogs. Normally they're ace, but there's been some random cats fighting and yowling over in one of the other gardens and the dogs have been going ballistic barking and wanting to go outside to see what the fuss is. Even now the cats have moved on, my dogs are still being arseholes. And I'm just trying to eat my dinner and watch the last couple of episodes of The Boys Sad

The cricket season starting back up

CrazyTitsLiz · 16/04/2021 21:13

Constantly feeling sick (10 weeks pregnant). I just want to feel better now, please.

Besom · 16/04/2021 21:15

I couldn't get the lid off a pot of black peppercorns to refill the grinder thingy. So I took a knife to it and the lid shot off and I exploded them all over the kitchen.

Montysauras · 16/04/2021 21:16

My husband. I have no more to add.

DonLewis · 16/04/2021 21:18

Other people's incompetence. It's everywhere I look.

itisthecause · 16/04/2021 21:19

To much to do and no energy!!

MrsHuntGeneNotJeremyObviously · 16/04/2021 21:19

I ran a bath and the water smells like fish. I have no idea why. But that will be yet another thing I need to sort out tomorrow. Am fed of my days bring commandeered by stuff I need to fix, especially as no fucker answers their chat function or phone - looking at you British Gas!

MrsHuntGeneNotJeremyObviously · 16/04/2021 21:20

Also I have to press the post button twice on MN to get it to post, which is disproportionately irritating!

dementedma · 16/04/2021 21:21

HMRC who are absolute cunts.

Fibromyalgia which meant I slept for 3 hours this afternoon and now wont sleep tonight. Again.

Passthecake30 · 16/04/2021 21:23

My kids who won’t do anything but stare at electronics and if I suggest they do anything else, assist me or pick up their stuff and roll their eyes like Kevin/Perry Hmm

Passthecake30 · 16/04/2021 21:24
