I know I am. Stupid little 'jobs'

[WinkyisbackontheButterBeer]

I've just gone to make a cup of tea and realised that it means opening a new 4 pinter of milk.
I was unreasonably pissed off at this.

The cap hurts my hand and I hate pulling of the stupid, silver seal then having to throw it away.

I have no idea why this upsets me so much but it made me realise that I although I will do it. I am stupidly annoyed every time I have to and if that if I can find a way to get dh to do it, without actually telling him about my unreasonable dislike of the task, I will.

It made me wonder... is anyone else pissed off by anything as ridiculously small and insignificant, or am I alone in my unreasonableness?

I hate it when the little tab breaks off the milk seal so it won't come off at all. I then have to get a pointy knife to stab through the middle of it (which ius quite satisfying actually!) and saw a hole.

What about blooming mouthwash bottles then? I hate those stupid things even more! Once I have it open I cannot close it fully for fear of having to go through the rigmarole again!

Turning the bastard lights off after DP/DS have been upstairs to the bathroom.....especially after I've asked them to turn the bastard lights off BEFORE they come downstairs! Honestly, if I don't do it the place ends up looking like fecking Blackpool illuminations 😠
Also constantly closing the doors when the heating is on.
I draw the line at clearing up their shit even though it makes me so angry when they use a cup/plate/bowl, leave said item in the living room and go and use another CLEAN cup/plate/bowl aaaargh!!!!!!
Don't get me started on the crap that collects in the plug drainer, or the fact that my DP thinks its acceptable not to clean the toilet "because it never looks dirty" - thats because I do it. Every. Fucking. Day.

I hate having to recharge stuff (laptop, phone etc)
I hate having to fill car with petrol.

Trying to open bottle lids on bleach, mouthwash etc. Everyone can do it but me!

Don't know why everyone is complaining about opening large 4 pint milk containers. Up till recently I was paying our milkman 65p a pint for delivering, and even though so expensive didn't have the bottle to stop deliveries. Pardon the pun!

They have just retired, and I'm saving shed loads of money buying milk at the supermarket.

I HATE answering my landline. I know it's either my mum or some PPI/smart meter/etc. etc. arsehole. Me and OH will always look at each other and question "who the bloody hell is this?" (Peter Kay style) it's so intrusive and I hate answering it.

People who hate unplugging things - you need these.

They are the only good thing to come out of my rheumatoid arthritis flare!

Schadenfreude you're right there. It's like it's been welded on 😁

Apologies for giant link!

Emptying the bin. For some reason it always falls on me to do as my dh will continue squashing every damn item in even though the lid is popping open! Arghh it grates on me so much! Lol.

I don’t particularly care for making packed lunches truth be told.

Oh and folding laundry (family of 5 here so seems never ending at times).

Putting the shopping away - food of course, but even clothes and undies - having to hunt for the little sticky labels on the laundry label (thanks, M&S) and cutting off the plastic tags. And those stupid tiny ribbon loops they sew into the shoulders.

Also, taking the laundry out of the tumble dryer. Specs always mist up like Mrs Magoo and then you have to sort the buggers out, socks esp. hate hate.

I love filling up with petrol (not so much the paying for it!) as I have always had a fascination for petrol stations. You never know what you'll find in them. Bars of choc you thought you'd never see again, might even find a Greggs branch selling their vanilla slice! And the Costa Coffee machine which I prefer to Starbucks, etc. as I like weak coffee.

Ooooh just thought of another highly irritating ridiculous thing - having to remove that flipping paper layer from a new tub of margarine! For some reason that annoys me too!

Not read the whole thread, but I nodded in recognition at the OP.

I find I get more like this as I get older. I really fucking hate having to go for a pee several times a day. What a bloody bore.

Also, putting the shopping away; in particular opening the string bag that onions/lemons come in. Fucks me off.

Got rid of dishwasher and put in a new freezer instead. DH washes up as I cook. I then get unreasonably angry when he’s working away and I have to do both. So ds and I get chips. 😂
Grating chilli cheese. It doesn’t grate but smooshes into the grater. Aargh! Nearly threw the grater out last night.
When the cling film box collapses when you’re trying to rip it off
When ds asks me to get him up in the morning and then shouts at me when I do it! So I’ve stopped doing it.

Elise- chilli cheese???? That's just not right.

Airborne and Millie, I feel your pain. Coat hangers are spikey, pokey, catchy and malevolent little fuckers who beat you every time because they cling onto each other and everything around them. Moving DH /DSs sodding bikes is another job I hate for the same reason - spikey, scratchy sticky-out bits.

@Euphemia - the shrink wrapped dishwasher tablets don't need to be unwrapped..

We go through 5-6 pints of milk a day. Luckily there are 4 of us in the house so I can usually avoid having to open the milk. DS2 always leaves the silver thing by his breakfast bowl. DS1 is the laziest fecker known to man and will just wait until someone else opens it.

I often wonder why, when I was one of four adults in the house, changing the toilet rolls always ended up as my job. Now there are two of us statistically I should be doing it every second roll, but no!
Have to admit that lately I have been leaving the roll almost empty deliberately and choosing the bathroom I use until the job has been completed by my OH. I have had enough!

chilli cheese???? That's just not right

It's the wrongness that makes is so delicious . . .

Maireadplastic. Chilli cheese goes on my amazing Mexican Chilli Chicken casserole. It’s a staple in our house. Lol.

Another one - putting the first rubbish bag into the wheelie bin the day after emptying and finding that as it has rained overnight there's two inches of water in it so having to haul the bin upside down on the path to drain it before putting the rubbish in.

Hanging the washing out. I know it'll dry nicely if it's windy but the bloody whirligig whizzes around and messes my hair up. Then having to un-peg it in a hurry as it looks like rain as those bastard pegs seem so hard to undo.

ShirleyPallus MrsOverTheRoad with you on socks - but solved recently with one of these - in the summer I hang them all up on it and then clip the thing over the line (making it much faster to bring them all in if it starts raining) in the winter it's in our spare room. One peg per sock. DH doesn't get socks back clean if they're not both in the same load - its stopped the odd sock problem! www.lakeland.co.uk/24582/Soft-Grip-Peg-Smalls-Dryer?gclid=Cj0KCQjwg7HPBRDUARIsAMeR_0ikzbR8DlQoG8sjwGe1jrIBBK-9lCMwB8h5yP8xQnlR5drNlvTUTbgaAlIrEALw_wcB&src=gfeed&s_kwcid=AL!49!3!105382560029!!!!43864963925!&ef_id=V028PwAAAMrXn7Z0:20171022180138:s
