Ive had to learn to be tolerant as i sit watching my dd at her classes.. a lot of parents..a lot of small babies and toddlers squashed into an observation area with nothing to do but tantrum and talk Shite

This woman is making me murderous.. she's sat so close I'm tilting my phone screen to write.. she's been slurping rattling crunching slurping a freeze pop thing for 10 mins.. whilst noisily flicking through a magazine and making phonecall.
Horrible whiney voice

I'm wishing a plague of boils erupts on her bum

She's having a drink making a call and looking at a magazine.

Chill out.

Ginslinger · 12/06/2017 17:33

she's being noisy and invading your space - kill

punicorn · 12/06/2017 17:36

Start talking to yourself with a mad look in your eye - she'll soon move away!

roundtable · 12/06/2017 17:38

Fart and burp repeatedly.

Make sure you lift the bum cheek closest to her.

Grin
mumblechum0 · 12/06/2017 17:38

Making phone calls in public never acceptable if over 30 seconds.
Slurping ditto.

Kill.

I went to a mum and baby group earlier. Wont be going again

BandeauSally · 12/06/2017 17:43

Elbows. Pointy elbows. Jabby jabby.

tccat · 12/06/2017 17:54

Kill her

WellThatSucks · 12/06/2017 18:09

Agree with pps, your only option is to kill her then leave her bloody corpse suspended from a light fitting with a sign around her neck listing her crimes as a warning to others.

Nikephorus · 12/06/2017 18:28

You need to talk to the voices in your head - the ones telling you to stab someone - "Please don't make me stab her" "I don't want to keep doing bad things" "Don't make me hurt her"... The fun you could have. Okay so you could never go back but even so Grin

Andrewofgg · 12/06/2017 18:32

I hope the boils aren't contagious.

PhyllisNights · 12/06/2017 18:41

For goodness sake, OP. Wish a plague on a murderer, not some innocent person who is unknowingly irritating you in public. If you don't like it then stay at home.

I can't wait to give birth and take my baby to classes. I'm looking forward to making friends with the mothers.

Grin you do realise it doesn't actually cause a plague when you wish it in someone. Don't you? It's not a real thing.

FreeNiki · 12/06/2017 18:51

This is why I have an iPod with noise cancelling ear phones.

No one bothers me as I cant hear them.

originalbiglymavis · 12/06/2017 18:52

Phyllis, oh Phyllis
Ahahahahahaaaaaa! You are so funny. Come back in a few months and let us know all about your lovely new mummy friend.

fruitbats · 12/06/2017 18:55

Phyllis! I was only today thinking that I hadn't seen your pearls of wisdom you about

SantanicoPandemonium · 12/06/2017 18:58

I was sat on a train once across from this man who was eating an ice lolly like he was giving it a blow job - I've never heard the like of it! Eventually the guy next to him leaned in really close and told him 'that sounds delicious, can I get in on it'. There was a few seconds of awkward silence and then the ice lolly dude got up and moved.

Every time I hear someone eating, I think of that and it makes me smile Grin

If you start stroking her arm she might move. Or punch you.

I had an ex who would do things like this! Always mortified me but hilarious and the same time Grin

Booboostwo · 12/06/2017 19:49

YANBU and I hope she passes the plague to the guy 'behind' me at the queue, who was standing next to me, swearing at the very existence of the queue (I'm in France, swearing is more socially acceptable), jabbing me with his stuff and coughing all over my face. He muscled in as I was finishing paying and asked to fill in a loyalty card application - a 20 minute job if there ever was one, oh the irony!

BuzzKillington · 12/06/2017 19:51

There isn't a court in the land that would convict you for murdering her once you'd presented your defence.

user1492287253 · 12/06/2017 22:56

is it swimming? cos i hear ya. when we decided to have a 3rd child my only caveat was that i wasnt taking it to swimming lessons. cos the wait in the overcrowded over hot waiting area was matched only by the feckers in the changing rooms and the woman on reception who acted like she had the keys to the golden kingdom rather than a pool and 2 squash courts.

Shellsandstones1 · 12/06/2017 23:00

Slide your arm around her shoulders and whisper "I'm going to tell you all about Jesus!"

Grin

(No offence to Christians there)

Shellsandstones1 · 12/06/2017 23:01

Or pull out loads of leaflets about bloody Aloe Vera. She will avoid you from then on.
