In a fit of pique...

[PookieDo]

What is your most irrational moment? Or are you cool and collected?

I have just came home from work and shopping and DC were doing nothing. I have bad period pains and a backache and DD16 had left school her school shoes slap bang in the middle of the kitchen floor. They are black and the floor is black and I had shopping bags and tripped on them

I threw them into the middle of the lawn in my fit of pique

It is not that I am OCD tidy but middle of the kitchen floor?!

I did pick them up so she never knew

Hanging out of my bedroom window screaming "Fuuuuucccking SHUUUUUT UP" having endured some random dog barking for what seemed like hours and then looking down and seeing the post man looking up at me utterly horrified.... and me then waving at him and saying a cheery 'Morning'. Oh the shame.

I also told Alexa to shut up once. She's been off with me ever since.

I once threw the Christmas turkey on the floor and then blamed my MIL. No, wait...

I'm imagining you furtively going out and picking them off the lawn again.

DH-marvellous as he is- is NOT handy.

He once attempted to "fix" our fax machine with a hammer.
i know this is showing my age but he had an office at home

We got a new fax machine...

It once got sick of all the kids stuff left in my car so I emptied it by throwing it into the garden and told them them neither pick it up or leave it but it was going back in my car.

*was not going back in my car

@Papergirl1968 don't replace them!!

I threw my h's shoes across the kitchen - for the same reason you did - and they broke the cat flap. Sigh.

Papergirl. Cost her surely, not you

An ex had just broken up with me and i had about 6 weeks before the lease on the apartment was about to finish. Bastard had gone out and whilst he was gone i took all the eggs from the fridge and launched them at the kitchen wall. So satisfying

Ahhh MN never disappoints these are brilliant I am laughing at all your strops 😂😂😂

I only picked them up as I just knew she wouldn’t actually see them anyway and in the morning they would be all wet from dew and then I saw it all becoming less satisfying

Glad I am not the only stroppy cow

I very nearly chucked a plastic bottle on the floor about 40 mins ago, as I've been waiting for my kid to go to sleep for 1,5 hours now, and he just keeps fucking talking. My patience is at 0.3% now, and he's still singing in bed. He's so tired. Gah.

I throw stuff a lot
It helps. I’ve thrown a meal away before because I was cross at DH and he’d made it.
I regretted it instantly. I was starving

I went full Basil Fawlty on our old Dyson.
Bloody thing. Didn't work very well. Weighed an absolute tonne.
You had to faff around to use the attachments. Click it back upright to use them which it wouldn't do, unless you didn't want it to. Then of course, you'd be using the stair tool, it would throw a hissy fit and topple over.
It didn't have a cord retract. Why? Every other vacuum I've ever owned had one, but not Mr super over designed bloody Dyson.
The only handles were on bits that came off. They'd come off a lot and I twice found myself at the top of the stairs holding the collection drum thingy while the rest of the contraption tumbled down without me.
Eventually the pissing thing toppled over, disgorged it's dusty contents all over my kitchen and tangled it's sodding wire one two many times and I beat the crap out of it with its own aluminium tube.
Aluminium is quite a soft metal and it got quite a dent in it.
Good. Stupid thing.

I’ve dumped dirty washing over my teen DS bed & floor as I’ve told him 1 million times previously not to put t shirts in the washing basket that have only been worn for an hour - just because he can’t be arsed to hang them back up.
He looked at me like I’d gone mental, still didn’t Pick them up then slept with them still on his bed.

Anytime anyone uses the phrase OCD clean, makes me want to lob phone/laptop/computer out the window

Threw the cats scratch post into the garden. It rained. They’re made of cardboard and sisal.

Bought him a new one.

I threw a PS4 console across the room once. Have flashes of considering doing it with the new one but manage to control it after remembering the cost!

Have also thrown an iPhone across the room but it was aimed to land on the sofa so not technically my fault.

Teens have driven me to the brink .

@Sobeyondthehills
Sorry! Don’t break anything on my part

Years ago,I opened the microwave for the first time after dd had been in hospital for a month and found a half drunk brew inside that had mutated . I unplugged the microwave, opened the back door and launched it into the street. It was very satisfying.

@whoopstheregomyinsides ha that made me chuckle! I could definitely see myself doing the same.

I got bitten badly by a dog once when I was about ten, and my mum in an absolute rage at it picked up a steel-toe-capped boot to hurl at it, but forgot to let go of it and hit herself in the face with it. 🙈

Oh god.....now remember when I threw 3 bottles one after the other of red wines at while he ducked DH because he had moaned he wanted fucking Chianti and I had been battling town 2 days before Xmas, was knackered, pissed off and he had been in the pub all day. There is still splash on the lounge ceiling as I look up.

Way back when, I had a Kindle keyboard. They weren't backlit.

I liked to read in bed and bought myself a clip on light. I shit you not, my buggering kids (toddlers at the time) made a beeline for it and I rarely owned one for more than a day before it was completely broken.

I treated myself to a Kindle case, leather, with a built in light. It was £40 or so.

.....One of the kids bent the connectors and when I bent them back, they snapped. Completely broken. I remember throwing it at the wall and screaming, I was so upset. It left a dent

Worst thing was, I'd bought it from eBay instead of Amazon to save myself a fiver so Amazon wouldn't replace it, which I think they would have if I'd bought it direct.

I have a backlit one now!
