Trying to have a relaxing bath dh said he would wait until I went in the bath and go and do the dishes fair enough but I'm up here trying to chill and he's down there fucking banging dishes around making a right racket whilst he does them it's so loud I literally want to run down staires and throttle him he's woke dd up aswell so that's fucking fabulous. Wouldn't of minded I actually wanted to do them today because I bleached my kitchen sink today and I know he would of messed it up again but he insisted he was going them. Fucking do them quietly then you knob!

YABVVVU - you should have taken the dishes into the bath with you. Lazy slattern.

Boyicantwait2beamumagain · 12/09/2018 01:54

Password that is the best comment ever! You know what you're totally right. I did the breakfast dishes in the shower and also wore all of dh dirty clothes in there to clean them.. I was just a little tired tonight and slacking. Il get it right tomorrow.

OP - make an effort! You should have administered a BJ whilst washing up in the bath. Tsk, girls today, don't even know they're born.

Boyicantwait2beamumagain · 12/09/2018 02:08

Password, we got a 2 year old and a baby on the way, silly twat married me last year... I dont have to administer bjs anymore.

As ali would say... when I said I do, what I really meant was OH I'M DONE!

recklessruby I talk to Henry all the time. He constantly falls over while I drag him around by his nose. He still smiles back at me and I always tell him I am sorry.
I like fun sponge. I usually say fun police when someone spoils the fun Grin

That's what I mean, the fun sponge/police

A friend of mine once said fun sponge in a conversation (not directed at me) and I love it. I'm now determined to use it on every thread that is light hearted and posters, or a poster, turns up purely to suck up the fun with their sponginess.

I really should, I will have to ask both my ex husbands for tips though.

The sound of my hubby doing the dishes would be like music to my ears

From the title, I thought this was going to be a hangover-fuelled rant abjuring the pleasures of Japanese rice wine for good.

Pamdoo · 12/09/2018 13:58

Fun sponges aside, I feel you! Remember after having my baby a good 3 weeks after, and saying right I'm finally off for an hour to myself baby is asleep! Next thing I knew I had just laid in the bath and the Hoover is outside the door, banging around for 10 mins, then baby wakes up so off he goes and brings the baby in the bathroom! Everytime I decided I wanted to nap, he got the hoover out so i gave up in the end! Not knocking him for trying but his timing is awful!

Boyicantwait2beamumagain · 12/09/2018 14:06

I think I'm going to adopt fun sponge it's better then the word I have for them which is pricks. Just need to find one for the grammar police as the word I'm currently using starts with a C Grin

Elephants actually move very quietly.

NewLevelsOfTiredness · 12/09/2018 14:18

OP, I'm the insensitive man committing major crimes to invoke the fury of the pregnant partner at the moment. Just last week, I quite insensitively asked if we should have two jacket potatoes each when she in fact wanted three. Naturally she boiled with rage (internally to be fair) at this transgression. I realise I should have known this and am trying to work on my sensitivity. Maybe I'll see if there's a course somewhere.

On a purely unrelated note, um... I don't suppose this whole pregnancy rage thing subsides a little as the pregnancy progresses? A little? Maybe?

(I should add that she apologised later and we laughed about it. She's lovely. I mean, most of the time. Also I empty the dishwasher more quietly than her. Promise)

BirthdayKake · 12/09/2018 14:26

FUCK this thread is good.

The image of the dog running around the kitchen attached to a dishwasher drawer 😂

Boyicantwait2beamumagain · 12/09/2018 14:33

Newlevels.. I'm Sorry but that isn't good enough you should of read her mind and known she wanted 3 jackets! (Did she really want 3?! I struggle to eat 2!)

No the rage doesn't subside at any point during the pregnancy and actually jacks up a few notches after the birth.. it is completely reasonable and we are entitled to boil internally as much as we want. You really need that course! Grin your poor wife.

He did it quite deliberately to ruin your bath, so clearly not as keen as you think he is to give you a break!

That was a typo, obviously. The OP originally wrote "would of" otherwise I wouldn't have corrected it.

HTH.

Havaina · 12/09/2018 15:16

@Basta

No, it wasn't a typo. A typo is writing 'teh' when you mean to write 'the', for example.

You spelt two words correctly - 'would' and 'of'. They just shouldn't go together.

It shows that we're all fallible and we shouldn't correct other people's SPAG unless it's your job to do so. For example, if you were a teacher.

HTH.

Basta · 12/09/2018 15:26

A typo can be writing the wrong word. Or call it a parapraxis if you prefer. Either way, if you want to look through my previous posts you will find no examples of could, should, or would of.
