I have read a few topics on here over the last week after being shown this site by a friend.

One thing I have noticed that there is a lot of posters having problems with:

Neighbours
In Laws
Cats
Parking
Schools
etc etc

and come on here to talk about it/let off steam BUT not deal with the issue for fear of "upsetting" someone.

As long as your in the right give them a "talking" to, dont be a doormat or you will always get walked on.

(This is a wind up isn't it? Shall I give my list of the usual suspects?)

My doormat is bone-idle and just lies around getting filthy. Right, I'm off to give it a good kicking.

Huskyflodynamo · 07/09/2010 13:21

Lovely. I will go and give my skunk smoking, thuggish neighbour a good talking to for when he is smoking the hardcore shit and it blows through my kitchen window.

Then I'll tell him you told me to.....

AnyFucker · 07/09/2010 13:22

my fucking doormat trips me up too, especially when I come through the door with shopping bags in my hands

it has a grudge against me, I swear

I think I will take it outside and beat it to within an inch of its life

thefirstmrsDeVere · 07/09/2010 13:24

I cant have a doormat. My dog abuses them.
I am deprived.

VinegarTits · 07/09/2010 13:24

i kicked my doormat out for washing once a week and having a cheesy cock

cheers for advice

come on which regular poster are you? lets think of some that like winding us up Wink

AnyFucker · 07/09/2010 13:26

abuses ?

your dog shags the doormat ?

I am rather fond of my doormat, even though it is trying to kill me, but I wouldn't go that far...

Lynli · 07/09/2010 13:28

Thankyou that is good advice: It is you're, not your.

I had a cat who like to shag towels - we had to give him a dedicated wanky-blanky in the end.

CherryChapstick · 07/09/2010 13:29

Why do the trolls always find one person to fire their poison at? Is that the way it is done in the playground?

tethersend · 07/09/2010 13:29

You hear that, Justine?

Get packing- you're finished.

Leave the doormat, though.

a dog I had used to shag cushions

but only pink cushions

it was a bastard getting the stains out, so I just had to wipe them on the curtains in the end

CherryChapstick · 07/09/2010 13:38

But dogs are bloody colour blind!

newwave · 07/09/2010 13:43

Cherry, what poison? at whom? silly comment.

No I am "not a usual suspect".

As for the "dont come back" that wont happen unless you own this site.
