WE KNOW WE'RE UNREASONABLE BUT...

[TequilaMockingbirdy]

what things really really annoy you, but for no reason? Like you know it's unreasonable but you still get annoyed.

DP switching the router off at the wall pisses me off no end.

At least he closes drawers .Be grateful . My DH never closes anything-drawers, cupboards...Drives me nuts

peanutbutterandbanana "DH going to bed before me. This really grates. I love having five minutes in the bed all to myself and DH really spoils it when he takes that pleasure away."

I can't help wondering whether it's occurred to you that your DH feels the same way about having five minutes in the bed all to himself. I can imagine you both trying to beat each other to bed to get that precious five minutes and your bedtime gradually getting earlier and earlier.

It seems to me that you should take it in turns as to who goes to bed first each evening.

peanutbutter yasooooonbu to be miffed at dh going to bed before you. You are a saint to put up with that. I now have to rush off to make sure I don't meet the same fate.

Grunt and Amanda - yes, I think DH and I have a secret but unmentioned race to see who can be first in bed. It wouldn't be the same if we organised a rota . I am just now in the middle of finishing off my online supermarket shop (but keep popping back to MN). I know that DD2 has taken refuge in our bed (from all the spiders that apparently inhabit her bedroom) and I LOVE having DD2 to snuffle up to but if DH gets there first he moves her. Now that really does nark (or is it knark?) me.

Dammit - he's just come into the study muttering those irritating words.. 'I'm going up', so he's beaten me to it tonight. Really annoyed now.....

The Race For Life. Actually, anyone making Nguyen a big deal of running anything less than a half marathon.

Ooh, such rich material on this thread. The one about the tub of butter and the putting back of the paper flap under the lid - whyyyyy? -just throw the fucker away!

My MiL goes a step further - she actually retains the flimsy fucking flap of useless paper and throws away the LID?!?! Every time!

When driving and I very kindly flash to let someone join the road from a side road and they spend about six hours going, "who me?" or don't notice because they're too busy being thick. What do they want, a fucking red carpet and an engraved invite??

Also, people who are feeble fucks about getting onto a roundabout (all people in my county except me) so a massive and completely unnecessary queue builds up. Get some bloody gumption, people.

People who are fussy about dishwasher loading (sorry, going against grain of thread here, I realise, but bear with me...) NSDH I'm looking at you with pain and sorrow as you take everything I've happily stuffed in machine and reload it, slowly, painstakingly, taking several million hours, all the while sighing, tutting and head shaking. Weirdo.

Loud sneezers give me the rage.

I sneeze, and you know what? I manage to do it without bringing the fecking roof in!

You CAN control your sneezes DM and DH, you choose not to. I refuse to believe that anyone can sneeze totally out of the blue, without that tell tale tickle first. AND COVER YOUR FECKING MOUTH!

OMG the going to bed thing... it used to be: me quietly floating up the stairs, almost swinging like monkey up stair rail to avoid creaks, having planted night time glass of water ages before, in a constant vain attempt to have five minutes of peace and quiet in bed and to read my book. But every time, he who can't hear me say "can you switch the kettle on" when in the same room, suddenly developed supersonic, magic hearing and even as I tiptoed upstairs, I would hear the doom laden sounds of lights and telly being switched off as he instantly followed me up

Mine would be......When waiting to turn into or across a long line of traffic, and I've spotted my gap about 10 cars away, so am relaxing and deciding what to do for supper, then some fecker flashes me when I'm not ready, and expects me to react in a split second and zoom across when I was actually quite happy waiting for my moment.........

Oh gawddd I'm one of the loud sneezers. In fact mine is a really high pitched squeak at the end of it, people call it 'Tequilas mouse sneeze'

I wish I could help it I've tried, it's so embarrassing in the pictures especially.

Ha ha ha mrs!

I have a home sneeze and a "company" sneeze. The home sneeze is the loudest sound I can make and I really bloody enjoy it, too. Perhaps because I'm terribly restrained and polite normally ahem. Then my public sneeze (wouldn't want an autocorrect on that phrase, would you?!) is a kind of muffled, whispered pale shadow of a sneeze. Trouble is when you forget and do the private sneeze in public, shit that's embarrassing.

DP has just done the most bloody annoying thing of all and I'm sat here silently fuming.

I had a sudden (and naughty) craving for oven fries and mayo. Asked him did he want any, he said no. So happily made myself some, lots of mayo happy Tequila. Sat down to eat them. He comes fecking over and starts helping himself to them. As one was going into his mush his hand was already reaching for the other. Picking the best ones as well. Using all the mayo. IF YOU WANTED TO EAT MINE, WHY DID YOU NOT LET ME MAKE YOU YOUR OWN?

It really annoys me. I had about 5 fries and just shoved the plate over to him.

Ah yes, tequila that is a common occurrence here too. Oven chips, nice dash of pepper and salt, bit of ketchup, OH already having disdainfully refused a portion of my crappy junk food, then stands next to me in kitchen, even before it's plated, picking off the chips in a faux-absent-minded way till most the chips and all the joy are gone [angy]

PS not sure who [angy] is - wasn't she in a gloomy Rolling Stones song? Appropriate emoticon fail then!

You need this tequila :o

Print it out and hold it up whenever you are eating!

Aaaand he's just left the plate in the sink.

I will seek my revenge....

YES bogey I think I will after this mayo-fry farce.

One thing I've just realised, when women think having PMT gives you an excuse to be a bitch, in particular to partners. You know it's coming, you know you're going to be moody and probably a bit unreasonable so control it instead of taking it out on everyone!

I've thought of a new one. Tab opening thingimijigs on packets of biscuits. They're always near the top, so when you tip out all the biscuits, they're UPSIDE DOWN in the tin :(

"Nicknames" on birth certificates. A good friend plans to name her DS Charlie and that is what she is putting on the birth certificate. Makes me twitch.

I didn't even like Samuel that well when DS was born (I do now) but couldn't bring myself to put just Sam down.
