His parents are the two most annoying people in the world. Yesterday we were there at their house. His mother constantly went on and on about sorting the carcass out, his father was attention seeking, coughing and spluttering good everywhere while we were trying to eat, the pair of them kept coming out with ridiculous stories that made them sound like twats, going on about how much money and jewellery they had and how spoilt she was by insisting that FIL and DH buy her new jewellery every Christmas and then to top it off - his father let DD outside after I'd specifically said she wasn't to go out but he opened the door in a cocky manner and let her out in the snow with no shoes on!!!! So I lost it, told MIL that she was the carcass, asked if they were so rich why is their house a disgusting grovel and told them that if they undermine me with dd again they'll be banned from unsupervised contact. Now, nobody (including dh) is talking to me.

You all sound quite well matched, based on your Op.

RunRabbitRunRabbit · 22/11/2015 19:37

If you go apeshit in someone else's house then you are automatically in the wrong.

If they are mean to you in their house, you take your children and leave their house.

If they are often mean to you, you don't go to their house.

YABU for letting it build up to an explosion instead of dealing with it earlier. Why on earth would you willingly go to her house after the SS incident? Why would DH want to go there? Confused

YANBU to hate them.

Sharon?

MistressMerryWeather · 22/11/2015 19:39

told MIL that she was the carcass

I don't know why but I can't stop laughing at that. :o

'YOU'RE THE CARCASS!'

Sorry OP.

Only1scoop · 22/11/2015 19:39

Say that again
Eh ....what?

hiddenhome2 · 22/11/2015 19:40

Ha, ha, is this a dry run for Christmas? Grin

MrsWembley · 22/11/2015 19:41

Well, OP, as annoying as they sound, you come across as an absolute delight! A complete hoot and the best of company!

Hmm

YWNBU to think these things of others, but YWBU to act the way you did. Time and place, you know; always remember, politeness costs nothing and there is always a time and a place that is better than the one any impulsive behaviour chooses.

LaurieMarlow · 22/11/2015 19:42

Wind up surely?

WhoTheFuckIsSimon · 22/11/2015 19:42

You're the carcass!

No, you're the carcass!

Grin

Why do you still see them if mil reported you to SS?

doceodocere · 22/11/2015 19:44

Oh dear. You sound as bad as each other.

steff13 · 22/11/2015 19:44

Is this one of those thread based on a book or a movie. I don't get those.

DuchessDaisy · 22/11/2015 19:46

How can you break a fridge by putting lollies in in?

cedricsneer · 22/11/2015 19:46

wha...? stuffing lollies in fridges - you need some anger management. weirdest thread.

Tirfarthoin · 22/11/2015 19:47

"You are the carcass"
"No, you are the carcass!"
not sure that argument is every going to end well.

MrsJorahMormont · 22/11/2015 19:47

You're the carcass!

No, you're the carcass!

Simon I can totally imagine that exchange in my head :o

Tirfarthoin · 22/11/2015 19:47

ever

ExasperatedAlmostAlways · 22/11/2015 19:48

Na

Tirfarthoin · 22/11/2015 19:49

Haha cross posted the "you're the carcass" argument Grin

Katarzyna79 · 22/11/2015 19:49

is that all that happened seems melodramatic to go off on one, unless more to it?

MistressMerryWeather · 22/11/2015 19:50

Don't worry about your family not talking to you OP, I will.

What exactly did she say about the carcass that vexed you so?

Did she want to make stock from it?

Katarzyna79 · 22/11/2015 19:51

duchess daisy: "how can you break a fridge by putting lollies in?" loool (I was thinking the same)

Enjolrass · 22/11/2015 19:51

Got to be honest. I wouldn't be speaking to dh if he called my mother a carcass.

Mainly because I would be laughing so much.

Hepzibar · 22/11/2015 19:51

I am the on,y one who hasn't got a clue what is going on here?

I don't understand the opening post?

WTF is a carcass?

WTF is going on?

Enjolrass · 22/11/2015 19:52

What kind of lollies do you keep in a fridge?

Hepzibar · 22/11/2015 19:52

Lollies in the fridge - whatever next.
