Love Actually AIBU

[Thisnamechanger]

I'm stuck in bed with flu so have been Netflix binging. Got me thinking how many excellent AIBUs the story has in it.

AIBU to really fancy my married boss?
AIBU to think lobster in the Xmas play is PC gone mad?
AIBU to think airport security has got really slack?

GoFiguire YABU

What was the other storyline? Never heard of this?

AIBU to think that no English woman would watch herself on video and say “l look quite pretty?”

YABU - you should give her the Barbie that looks like a transvestite, obvs!

I just bumped into like 8 people I know at Heathrow arrivals. AIBU to think something weird is going on??

@strawberrisc 🤣🤣

AIBU to think that carol-singing choirs who go around door-to-door should learn to fade out gradually at the end of the song and not just stop abruptly? It just sounds so amateurish and completely spoils the whole experience, especially when you're listening to them from a bit of a distance and digging the ethereal ambience.

I don't think IABU; my new DW agrees with me at least - in fact, she feels strongly enough about it that she will actually leave the house and chase after them if she believes they've left without having provided a sufficiently professional service in exchange for monies rendered.

I don't know for sure what she does when she catches them, but I can only assume that she threatens sternly to report them to Trading Standards.

AIBU that thinking that liking Banoffe pie does not equal having 'terrible taste in pie'

AIBU that thinking that liking Banoffe pie does not equal having 'terrible taste in pie'

OMG I know!!

AIbU that my step dad should not be talking about having sex in every room of the house seeing as I am only 11?

Terrible taste in pie

The script is SO bad in this film

AIBU to think that 10 Downing Street would have a directory of all its employees so that the Prime Minister wouldn’t have to go knocking door-to-door trying to get in touch with a member of staff.

I love the film, even though it has multiple silly story lines that could produce a gazillion AIBU threads if they all happened in real life. It's all pretty absurd so YANBU to start this thread, but I really enjoy the film and don't care if IABU.

I'm 'Actually' loving this thread. Laughing out loud at some of the comments!!

AIBU to think that NOBODY's father calls them 'Plumpie'?

AIBU to think this Medium piece nails Love Actually for all time?

AIBU to ask (cos I don't remember seeing the film) if necklace wife and her DH part? Does DH end up with necklace OW?

@PyongyangKipperbang YANBU at all

To those who don’t know the Anne Reid/Frances de Tour Story, it’s on the dvd extras. It’s lovely.

AIBU to book a transatlantic flight approximately 15 minutes after my daughrer’s school Christmas concert finishes?

Prime Minster doing creepy crab dancing to Pointer Sisters. Broken Britain.

@PyongyangKipperbang thank you! Never ever heard of seen that before!

I think one of my employees has been sexually harassed by the president of the USA. WIBU to sack her and then turn up at her house for a go on her a couple of weeks later?

AIBU to think my boss is well out of order for threatening to sack me, for being 'too slow and inefficient' at work?

It sounds like he wants me to just start churning our valued customers along a conveyor belt and getting shot of them as quickly as humanly possible, but we're a high-end traditional department store, for goodness' sake - not Lidl!

I say that they deserve service with care and I just add a few tiny flourishes - sharpening smelly pencils into the bag and scooping in a little budgie-cage grit before adding no more than 5 or 6 yards of frilly ribbon. Come on: it's not like I start serenading them and performing a strictly-style floorshow - it's literally just a few nice little touches, which I can tell for an absolute fact, just by looking at their faces, that they appreciate so very much and wouldn't want it any other way.

Anyway, he tells me that I'll be 'let go' immediately after Christmas if I can't manage to serve an average of at least two customers an hour.

I tell him that's he's hugely exaggerating, but it appears that his definition of 'the work of a moment' varies massively with mine and I'm never going to be able to make him see sense.
