To think two slices of toast is standard?

[Fedupofplaystation]

Been in bed most of the day with awful PGP. Struggling to move.

35 weeks pregnant.

Text DH to request some toast and he brought up one measly slice. He is now huffing around because I had the audacity to ask for a second slice.

Surely, when making toast, two slices is the norm unless a different number of slices is specifically requested from the outset?

2 is standard. Even my 5 year old son has 2 for breakfast.

Wanttosqueezeyou... Are you joking?!

Absolutely. And if you have a four-slice toasting machine it would be prudent to use all four just in case. I mean, if you're going to switch it on and use electricity and all...

(Fyi slices: 1. Butter, 2. marmite, 3. marmelade or jam, 4. anchovy paste)

2, for sure.

And unless you butter it all the way to the edges, I'll throw it at you.

Hmm watching (and taking notes) with interest , I will be laid up myself next week (surgery) so at least I know what demands will be unreasonable.
DH has got the TV sorted and set up the phones so I can contact him. He was very caring "Are you going to be resting upstairs"? but I realise it's so that he can watch one of his marathon epic series binges (Just had to endure the entire back catalogue of The Walking Dead, DS loves it too )

When I had a colonoscopy a couple of months back, I woke up drooling at the thought of white doorstep Warburtons with Waitrose lemon curd and a cup of milky coffee (my last food had to be before 7am then I did "The Prep" )
He gave me one sodding slice
I got my revenge, the downstairs loo wasn't nice

YANBU. Two slices is standard, maybe even three for a pregnant or breastfeeding woman. After the birth of DTs I inhaled four!

My DH has just brought me two slices of burnt toast as I'm feeding my DTs. Sigh.

no unreasonable, but as a prior crutchbound and then wheelchair user sufferer of SPD/PGP, is bed really the best place?

you need to be getting up at least every hour for a little bit, you'll seize up and make the pain worse if you stay sat down and motionless for long periods, laying/sitting in bed can also cause baby to lie the wrong way and make labour more difficult.

DH says he needs a stern talking too lol! YANBU it should always be two unless otherwise specified.

My husband used to bring me one slice of toast too, I used to get a bit upset about it and wonder if it was some sort of comment on my weight. Then I realised he was just odd. Two is definitely standard for an adult.

I assumed wanttosqueeze was joking. Otherwise

I'm going to get in touch with the Oxford English Dictionary and get them to rename it 'twoast' in their next edition in an attempt to stamp out such once sliced miserliness.

My DP would probably be the other end of the spectrum - bring up a massive tower of toast like the leaning tower of Pisa, then sit there stuffing it all himself!

I literally can't remember the last time I had a single slice of toast....I've never thought about it until now!!

Two normal. Has he eaten the other piece?

2 is normal. At my pils the standard is 4!!!!!

Who makes one slice of toast? Toasters come with 2 slots for a reason. Hell some even have 4. Ffs.

He's a mean, toast-miserly, skinflint bastard. He had the cheek to make you pregnant with his toast-denying willy and now you've got PGP all because of him! Bastard!

The correct way is marmite on one, marmalade on the other.

One slice though

Oh I did this to DH on Saturday. I made him toast (see how lovely I am) and ate one slice because it looked really nice.
Then, when he asked why he only had one, I said "well you said- can you do me a slice of toast whilst you are in the kitchen"
I knew he meant 2
I did confess though

That's just not right. I bet if you'd asked him for Weetabix he'd have brought it upside down.

Tantrums you're a bastard

Tbh, I only ever eat a half! It's like a snack: "half a slice of toast and a cuppa".

Do you toast half a slice of bread or toast a whole slice and throw half away, MummyLuce?

What do you do with the other half? Do you share toast? Dirty bugger!

DH and I went out for lunch one day last week, just to a greasy café. We both ordered an all day breakfast, which was not huge, one sausage, one egg, one rasher, beans, grilled tomato and HALF A SLICE of toast!!

HALF A FRIGGIN SLICE!! a whole slice would have been about a whole 5p more surely.

HALF.A.SlLICE so wrong!
