What's the weirdest thing a guest in your house has done? (Lighthearted)

[ToddlerSwim]

DH had a close childhood friend. They were in their early 20s and friend had come over to hang out (just for the evening not to stay over).

DH was still living with his parents at the time and they were all in the living room chatting when friend randomly gets up and announces "right I'm going for a bath" and just goes off and has a bath in their house.

It's such a small thing but so bizarre. What odd habits have you seen from house guests?

Putting the "poo" in "shampoo".

Or you can boil it in bleach. Er. So I've heard.

workman from my housing association came to do a gas safety check, He was full of a cold and had tissues with him and kept blowing his nose, he then asked if he could use my bathroom and I told him yes. After using the bathroom he left as he had finished the job.

Went in the bathroom and he had peed all over my toilet seat, not flushed the toilet so it was full of pee and all over the floor he had left his soaking wet tissues that he had blown his nose on, Rmember gagging when i was picking them up because they were all soaking wet

I knew someone many years ago that had been in hospital for a few days, on her release she rung and asked if she could stay at mine for the night, at the time I was out shopping with my mum so stated I’d call her when I got back in.
Arrived back home to find her stood on my doorstep in the dark, slightly shocked, I took her in and all was fine. The next day came and went as did the days that followed. She stayed on my sofa for over a month in all, barely washed, my living room absolutely stunk. My kids completely bemused as to why she had taken to living on our sofa. I hadn’t known her that long before arriving at my front door but didn’t like to say no. What made it even more odd was every time I was asleep she would raid my freezer and cook shit loads of food apparently to feed everyone but I think more so she had a massive free plate of food.
Finally got rid of her in the middle of one night when she yet again called paramedics for no apparent reason. They came and collected her from my living room completely unbeknownst to me and I saw my opportunity to never have her back again. Never received a penny for food from her or anything else for that matter. Turned out she also had a habit of turning up at the hospital too for no apparent reason……..there really is nothing as queer as folk 🥴

Not as bad as that but lived in a shared house.
A bloke came round who was good company, funny but, always something a bit off about him as well. No warmth or compassion.
I saw them out and locked the door. Luckily checked as he'd left on various electrical things (definitely him) such as the hob and a toastie maker (which he'd plugged in and left open.) just a bit unsettling as it was known the only door in or out was the kitchen

To teach her a lesson? I assume they were annoyed with their daughter’s tidying standards so they thought that if they threw everything down the stairs she’d have to put everything back in its place.

A friend was staying over as we were going out and she lives out of town. She arrived in the morning (I wouldn’t be home from work until 5pm). This was fine & she came to my work to borrow my housekey. She then told me that she had to rush to mine as she had arranged for a hairdresser (that I didn’t know) to come to mine and colour her hair. When I got home she told me that I should boil the (MY) towels as otherwise the colourant might stain them (of course it did). I was furious and told her so. I haven’t invited her to stay since.

Ex boyfriend's mother decided to machine wash my delicate underwear while they were staying in our flat. Still fuming twenty years later.

There needs to be either a "wow" or "WTF" reaction

If this wasn't my story I wouldn't believe it.

One New Year's Day I had two friends over for drinks. Nothing rowdy we were merry and had a great night. After they left I went to the bathroom and down by the side of the toilet was a shit.

I have no idea which of them it was. I have never shit to the side of the toilet. I make a direct (s)hit 100%of the time. Who knows what position you need to be in for that to happen, but somehow it did.

It was exactly like that scene in the movie Ted.

I never said anything. I mean, how do you bring that up in conversation.
Grim 🙁

Had the same thing with MIL. DS was in hospital and I was staying with him. DH invited his in laws over which annoyed me in itself like he couldn't take charge of our other DC and the house without help. I had a separate small laundry bag of cashmere, woollens, delicates etc. She chucked everything in the wash all together I can only guess at boiling point. Wool items came out like felted dolly clothes. I don't think delicates survived in any form at all.

OMG!!

When you know she's coming to visit why don't you just remove all shampoos and shower gels out so she'd have to flush

This would drive me mad. I'd lurk nearby and offer to help her if I didn't hear a flush. Sod privacy, how unhygienic

Why??? Did you ever ask? Was she planning to take it with her when she left but forgot?

Mil she can’t even be here for 10’minutes without having to go and have a fag outside flicking her butts off into the ground. Not just once place either she has to wonder around like lady of the manor around the whole garden so you never know where you might find them. Got her an ashtray and she still won’t just sit there fuck down in place to smoke. We don’t even smoke at all.

we don’t have bins in our house either for the whole period pad thing, was always raised to nappy sack them but grew up in a house that had bins everywhere and it’s left me with a complete ick for inside bins. One bag is used in the kitchen and taken out nightly/when full which ever comes first.

Poor girl, I bet she was/is mortified. I have always made sure to have bathroom bins with lids and would simply empty them without saying a thing, that is what they are there for after all. However I guess everyone is different. My mil has always made our Dds so uncomfortable about such things, then wonders why they are awkward around her 🤷‍♀️

Bit of 'Colin from accounts'?

You think it's weird when men need the loo? No. You are the weird one here.

I'm so sorry all of that that happened, that sounds awful x

That happened to me, @Gabitule!

We had a group of friends come to visit when we bought our first house. My DH and a friend stayed up drinking Whisky after everyone else went to bed, both fell asleep on the sofas drunk 🙄

I had left our bathroom mirror light on so DH didn’t wake me up by turning on the light when he came to bed. The drunk friend woke up and staggered upstairs, saw the light, thought it was the kind of thoughtful thing his wife would do, stripped off and got into bed with me 😡

I woke up to find myself pinned under a 6 foot something, hefty naked man’s thigh and a confused looking DH standing next to the bed. He had to peel the friend off to release me. Drunk friend started muttering about leaving him there, he “would be fine”. I think he thought he was still on the sofa.

We gave up and went to try and sleep on a single bed stored in the cellar under a sofa throw.

Next morning his wife woke up, saw he wasn’t there and went out for an early morning run for several hours, thinking everyone would want a lie in. She assumed he had slept in another guest room because the last thing she had said to him was “don’t get drunk” so he knew she would be cross with him if he came to bed stinking of booze.

She was a bit more than cross when she came back late morning to find a very tired me still in my PJs preparing brunch because her naked husband was still asleep in my bedroom. I didn’t fancy getting an eyeful of her husband’s family jewels if I went to get my clothes 🤮

yes, we quietly opened the door to the room, saw him there, then one of the men went in and covered his naked bits before waking him up 😀

It was definitely a female when Judy Finnigan told the story.

The cheek of it!

I had a guest oil the hinges on my doors.

I sleep like a log so slightly squeaky doors didn't bother me in the slightest. I do however object to pools of dripped oil in my carpets.

Annoying, presumptuous and definitely not appreciated.
