tell me your parents' irritating habits. My mother resents everything about me, always has. I am at "home" on a lovely family visit.
I have just offered to cook dinner and said I will do it when i finish some work. So she goes into the kitchen and starts slamming things around and huffing and puffing that her cooking isn't good enough and she'll end up having to do it anyway because I'm too important and too busy with my career. I said politely and reasonably that she had no basis to say that and I would do it if I could have half an hour to concentrate on the work I'm doing. So she has spent the last 25 minutes walking back and forth moving the ironing and the ironing board to a new location as close to me as possible and huffing and puffing about how SHE has to do IRONING while SOME people are JUST TOO IMPORTANT TO NOTICE THINGS LIKE IRONED CLOTHES.
No Mum, I don't notice your ironed clothes. I wash and iron my own. I have been doing so since i was 5. I will cook your dinner in a second.
Just let me slit my own throat first...........
