To think these women are arseholes?

[Flypaperforarseholes]

Spent the weekend away with a group of women (most of whom I don't know) for a friend's birthday.
10 of us in total, 2 of whom (including the Laura, whose birthday we were celebrating) I have been friends with for 10+ years.
Shared a twin with Nora, on Sunday morning, before going to breakfast, we packed ready to check out. I then stripped the beds and collected the used towels together.
We went down for breakfast and Laura laughingly asked if I'd stripped the beds yet. It is a bit of a standing joke amongst us because it's something I've always done in hotels. One of the other women, Paula, asked what it was about and I explained. She was quite taken aback and asked why I felt the need to do it/don't I like to relax etc. She drew it to the attention of the whole group and took to calling me Mrs Mop for the rest of the day. A bit irritating but didn't bother me really.
This evening, a message from Paula came up in the watsapp group which had been set up at the planning stage of the trip.
"Thank you for a lovely weekend, girls. Laura, do give me flypaperforarseholes number, good help is so hard to come by these days. LOL!"
A few laughter emojis and "LOL"'s from some of the other women. Nothing from Paula or Nora yet.
Am I BU to think these women are arseholes?! It hasn't bothered me massively, in large part due to the fact that I found Paula a pretentious bore of a woman and thus give a minimum of fucks about what she thinks of me but I'm surprised that this such a small thing seems to have become quite the focal point for her. I'm assuming she doesn't realise I'm on the group chat because I haven't actually messaged on it. These women are school mum friends of Lauras and I don't want her to get caught in the middle so haven't replied...yet.

Thanks user, I knew your finely honed sense of humour would enjoy it

OK I understand. And if you have no desire to see Paula and chums again, I s'pose it doesn't matter.

What a coincidence!

They strike again

Never seen such a fuss over the completely wrong thing on in a thread.

Op didn't go around everyone pulling them out of bed and stripping it only her own and her friends bed in the same room the friend who she has been away with many times the friend who knows her.

Paula laboured the point like a stupid teenager looking for 'likes'. Then went one better by carrying it on once they were all home

Paula sounds totally up herself from ops posts and needs telling she isn't above anyone, neither op nor chambermaids.

Laura stood up for her friend against 3 harpies her own friends told her what the others were saying about OP.

I completely fail to see how op asking if these ignorant women were being rude turned into a blood fest against her for something she does that isn't hurting anyone on here, she isn't demanding we all do it nor is she saying we are all bitches for not doing it. Jeez chill nobody needs to strip a bed they dont want to really they don't.

And so many people commenting on only the first post and not ops other posts R T T.

I wonder if Paula feels she isn't quite part of the group, or that she isn't really liked much. That sort of insecurity can lead to a person grabbing an 'in' joke and labouring it, often against someone she sees as a bit outside the group, ie, someone more vulnerable.

Despite that, she doesn't sound too nice a person as it stands, and I'm certainly not advocating taking the understanding stance.

She's not got much to do with you directly, luckily. If anyone mentions her to you, you can say vaguely "is that the silly, insecure who makes jokes against people?", but you're probably too nice!
