A) Disagree with irksome people - purely because they are irksome? Not necessarily because they are wrong but I just find them annoying...

B) Quash the overly-enthusiastic endlessly cheerful types by being cynical? Let's face it, nobody should ever be endlessly chirpy. That's just Not On and you are annoying.

C) Remove items that people leave at their arses and put them in a "safe place" - if it's precious or important then I assume you wouldn't just leave it lying at your arse?

AIBU and a right Old Caaaaah?

Am confused, they leave what at their arse? Do you mean wallets etc?

MaidOfStars · 04/12/2013 22:21

Why did you hyphenate 'overly-enthusiastic' but not 'endlessly cheerful'?

Is that irksome?

Sneakymeezer · 04/12/2013 22:23

Yes, the arse is very mysterious and is irking me ;)

Sneakymeezer · 04/12/2013 22:24

misskatamari · 04/12/2013 22:24

My arse generally gets pretty cold - but I have the electric blanket on so it's toasty warm now!

Leave something at your arse = leave your crap lying around.

Not hyphenating things is also very irksome!! You are correct MaidOfStars know all

We only have your word for it Sneaky that your arse is fine.

It should really be "leaving thing lying at your arse"

The "lying" bit is important...

Me: "DS are you going to leave those dirty dishes lying at your arse?" (When he still lived at home)

DS: "yes"
