When I go to my children's houses when they're grown up I'm going to

Put a nearly empty milk bottle back in the fridge.
Turn on all the lights in the house and leave.
Tell them at 10pm that I need something desperately for the next day that they have absolutely no way of getting in time.

Your turn.

Walk in, simultaneously kick shoes off, drop my jacket and bag in the living room, stamp up the stairs, slam the bathroom door and go for a poop I've held in for hours. With the window shut. And only finish when atleast three people are desperate for a wee. And still don't crack a window.

I will make them lie on the floor next to my bed while I take at least an hour to fall asleep.

BlueSuffragette · 15/10/2022 10:44

I can really relate to some of your brilliant suggestions, especially- damp towels on the bed, mugs and bowls gathering mould under the bed and yogurt lids anywhere but the bin. I'd also eat all of their crisps and shove the empty packets down the side cushions of the sofa. Also use the last of the toilet roll and not tell them. Drink most of their gin and top it up with water to hope they wouldn't notice. Use all the hot water soaking in a bath for hours and then leave a dirty fake tan ring round it and stain all the towels with tan and hair dye.

Lol I love these 😂

I haven't done these things to my grown up children. But I did once go to my daughters house and put new batteries in my grandkids noisy toys. I knew she took them out of the most annoying toys lol

Shit, there's me thinking it's tough now, when my boys are aged 2 and 4😅

hoochyhag · 15/10/2022 10:47

No need! I have grandchildren <evil laugh>

QueenWenceslas · 15/10/2022 10:47

I’m going to draw on my daughter’s mirrors with her lipsticks and fill her handbags up with broken crayons, snotty tissues and other detritus.

Use every toilet - flush none.

Throw spoons in the bin along with empty yoghurt pots.

Sit in the back of their cars and kick the back of the front seats with my muddy feet.

Cover the entire sink in toothpaste.

bcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyza · 15/10/2022 10:50

Put my feet in the back of the drivers seat when he passes his test.

TheFormidableMrsC · 15/10/2022 10:50

I'm going to throw washing next to the washing basket. Leave plates and cups to cultivate things (upstairs). Leave empty packaging in fridge and cupboard. Eat 10 bags of crisps in one day. Leave all the lights on. Stand in the shower for 40 mins. Oh I could go on and on....

Bang on the toilet door as soon as their arse touches the seat and scream as if im being murdered, then ask for a snack when they open the toilet door with their trousers round their ankles.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Parker231 · 15/10/2022 10:51

Hide their car keys when they are already late going out!

mothertrucking · 15/10/2022 10:52

Walk through their house with my shoes on
Eat all the nice foods from the cupboard
Not use the bin for my rubbish
Pee all over the toilet
Leave toothpaste in the sink

SarahSissions · 15/10/2022 10:53

take a 30 minute shower and use all the hot water…
EVERYDAY

HighlandPony · 15/10/2022 10:53

Run the deepest bath in the world using all the hot water then lie in it for an hour shouting “I’m fucking busy in here” at anyone who might need a pee

moistmingemist · 15/10/2022 10:54

I shall take my dirty underwear and leave it on their bathroom floor.

I shall clean my ears with cotton buds and leave them down the side of the bed, under the bed, I'm the settee.

Use as many pots as are in the kitchen to make a meal but not wash them up.

Want something to eat that isn't in their very full fridge or freezer

Bring all my friends over for pre drinks and leave the mess behind and go out clubbing. On my return with all friends we will make pizza and pass out all over the house

Jellycatspyjamas · 15/10/2022 10:54

I’ll tuck dirty socks down every cushion on every sofa, take my carefully washed and folded clothes and put them straight back in the laundry basket and wipe make up on the curtains. I’ll also start a fantastic craft project involving tonnes of cardboard, scissors, glitter and the hot glue gun, I’ll get bored after 10 minutes and leave the debris at my arse and will leave the hot glue gun dripping onto the dining table.

I’ll also want to have an existential discussion about the meaning of life at 11 o’clock at night after they’ve been working 12 hours that day.

goingslightlyinsane · 15/10/2022 10:54

Spit toothpaste into the bathroom sink, up the mirror and sometimes on the floor and then not rinse it so I goes rock hard.

Jellycatspyjamas · 15/10/2022 10:55

I’ll also pick the mushrooms out of my dinner and leave them in a neat pile on the table next to my plate.

whosaidtha · 15/10/2022 10:55

Take my shoes off and instead of putting them in the cupboard I'll leave them behind the door so you can't get in the front door.

FistFullOfRegrets · 15/10/2022 10:56

Sewaccidentprone · 15/10/2022 10:30

Write my name on the side of the door but say I didn’t do it.

@Sewaccidentprone

You have to blame the little brother too, the one who can't reach, who can't write & wouldn't write her name anyway!

ArabellaScott · 15/10/2022 10:56

Interrupt every train of thought forever.

PinkStickleBrick · 15/10/2022 10:57

Turn the heating up to 26 then open all the windows.

Tell them not to leave teabags on the spoon rest and shut the bin lid. Basically any such talk that implies I own their house and they are honoured guests in it ( 18 year ds )

Wee on the floor

Not flush the loo

Eat food and put the empty container back

Eat and entire meal for 6 by myself for breakfast

Eat a key ingredient for a meal for 6 as a snack

Complain my mates kids have bigger houses and them how poor they are

fairtrauchled · 15/10/2022 10:57

Leave the empty cardboard inner from the toilet roll on the holder.
Leave 2 crisps inside a sharing bag
Take all the newly washed and folded clean clothes from the bed and put them on the floor instead of in drawers/wardrobe.
Leave enough milk in the carton to cover a 5p coin
Turn the heating up full in a room then leave for hours at a time.
Put a t shirt that's been worn for about an hour into the laundry basket rather than wearing it again.
Talk incessantly asking the same questions over and over when they're trying to have a phone conversation.

VioletCharlotte · 15/10/2022 10:59

Shove lolly sticks down the side of the sofa.
Borrow their car and leave it fully if McDonalds wrappers but empty of petrol.
Stand under the shower for 20mins, then get out dripping wet, soak the floor, bath mat and all the towels. Make sure to leave the window shut so none of the steam can espace, ensuring the bathroom is full of condensation. Leave my knickers on the bathroom floor.
Leave empty ice lolly boxes in the freezer
Dye my hair using their best towels

I could go on...
