Hit me with your worst/most ridiculous/most likely to start a bun fight AIBU opening post.

Rules are:

  1. it has to be your own idea, so no using current threads
  2. no troll paraphernalia - mn rules.
  3. keep it light hearted. This is just for fun, because i'm bored and because you know there's a part of you that would just love to write it for real to see what reaction you'd get. But wouldn't because you're sensible and wouldn't want to annoy mnhq.
  4. I don't want the responses, just the opening post.

A virtual Wine in it for the winner. Grin

AIBU to deeply admire Liz Jones?

AIBU to make my step-children sleep on the patio because they breathe too clearly, which insultingly mocks my asthmatic real DD? I'm sure they do it on purpose...

AIBU to allow my daughter to drink the bath water after I may have done a little wee in it?!

Didactylos · 08/08/2013 19:41

AIBU to be angry that my neighbours have painted their untrained staffordshire terrier red, (when the shared fence is green!) and they hold loud parties and smoke while parked in the disabled parking space under the windows of my boxroom. It is destroying my enjoyment in planning my childfree wedding and writing the poems for the invite

AIBU to pierce my 2 day old baby's belly button? She'd look so cuuuute!

aibu to not remember why I choose such a stupid user name?

MammaTJ · 08/08/2013 19:44

AIBU because my DP will not wipe his own backside. I am a SAHM and do all the cooking and cleaning, all the washing and ironing. I do every bit of the housework. He works full time but gets home at 6.30 each night and barely even acknowledges our 10 DC.

When he goed to the toilet in the mornings, just before he leaves for work at 7am, he shouts for me to come and wipe his bottom.

AIBU to think this is the one thing he really should do for himself and refuse to do it for him.

not one bit of this is true, except that I do have a DP

PoppyWearer · 08/08/2013 19:44

AIBU to have pulled into the only parent and child parking space and parked there for five hours (even though I don't have DCs) because the PERFECT cash-grabbing poem for my adult-guests-only-and-all-guests-must-wear-orange wedding invitation has just popped into my head and I need to write it down.

(Bridezilla emoticon)

(I've made this one up, I hope that's obvious.)

TheFantasticFixit · 08/08/2013 19:46

Frusso - oops!

runningonwillpower · 08/08/2013 19:46

Yonionekanobe · 08/08/2013 19:49

AIBU to write to Kate and Wills to demand that they do not use the name George as it is the second middle name of my precious second born 's hamster?

PissesGlitter · 08/08/2013 19:49

Am I unreasonable to say my heart always leaps with joy whenever I see a thread about weddings or MILs, but always sinks when I see one about parking?

YouTheCat · 08/08/2013 20:14

AIBU to say that people should only post in AIBU if they are being really horribly unreasonable so I can have a good sneer at them? Grin

Thepowerof3 · 08/08/2013 20:16

AIBU to BF my own GC with my out of date Stilton flavour boob milk?

GetStuffezd · 08/08/2013 20:17

AIBU to ring my 24 year old son's boss and explain he won't be in today as he's hungover a vair poorly little boy?

PervyMuskrat · 08/08/2013 20:17

AIBU to think that my MIL should respect my toaster settings when she's in my house looking after DC for the weekend whilst DH and I go out on the piss. Oh and the cake she brought with her was full of coconut, when she know I hate it Angry

Not true at all that, oh no...

HugAndRoll · 08/08/2013 20:24

Aibu to be pissed off I'm not losing weight? I only eat 5 bars of chocolate and a pack of biscuits a day, surely I should be 3 stone by now!!

HugAndRoll · 08/08/2013 20:25
