So here we are in sunny Menorca celebrating a friend’s big birthday. In a villa with a pool , table tennis , pool table, beer in the fridge, music. Arrived Friday and so far every night they’ve been out for a last beer after a night out. So ...... they went shopping to get food for a bbq 4 hours ago ... are we being unreasonable

LimeKiwi do you think we have been singled out as not suitable to be given the responsibility of a vote button? Blush

LimeKiwi · 18/06/2019 16:23

Husbands?
Que?!
I'm still none the wiser lol

LimeKiwi do you think we have been singled out as not suitable to be given the responsibility of a vote button?

Maybe we've inadvertently failed some kind of posting style test and we're not allowed to have one Sad
Can't be trusted with it or something lol

WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles · 18/06/2019 16:25

Is it your husband that keeps fucking off and should have returned with BBQ food hours ago?

If so of course you aren't being unreasonable.

And I should clearly be entrusted with a vote button as I understood this complex problem Wink

Jemima232 · 18/06/2019 16:25

YABU to expect anyone to vote on an issue you have failed to explain, OP.

Are you perhaps drunk?

mouldyhousemouldylife · 18/06/2019 16:26

Why is it this post of all of them that has the voting option? It doesn't even make sense. Do you have heatstroke?

WhiteLightTrainWreck · 18/06/2019 16:26

My vote button has appeared and I'm not sure what the question is here.

You're on holiday for a birthday and the husbands have gone out to get bbq food and have been gone 4 hours and you want to know who is being unreasonable. But for what? That they went to get food? Or that they have been gone so long?
Actually, yabu. Grab a book and sit poolside and chill!!!

PotatoesDieInHotCars · 18/06/2019 16:26

Husbands

You're only being unreasonable by waiting around for them. Go out and do your own thing.

WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles · 18/06/2019 16:26

I think I might start my own AIBU to worry that MNHQ are following me as (I swear this is true) I accidentally pressed the big red emergency button at the pool the other day and caused some panic Blush

I'm not allowed near any button, clearly.

Grin If you get one and I don't now it's probably down to my comprehension ishoos lol
Jemima232 · 18/06/2019 16:27

Yes, OP, that makes it so much clearer.

PuppyMonkey · 18/06/2019 16:27

MN have a thread in site stuff explaining the vote thing. They’re trying it out on random Aibu threads. Certainly can’t get much more random than this one.Grin

Bluntness100 · 18/06/2019 16:27

Lol. Are you being charged by the word op or something?🤣

Crack out the cava and it will all be fine.

Flowerrose · 18/06/2019 16:29

I think we need a "what are you on about?" Button too

WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles · 18/06/2019 16:29

ELABORATE FFS.

(This is why I'm not allowed a button)

ChampionThreadKiller · 18/06/2019 16:29

We’re coming to Menorca in July. If they’re still out buying beers, I’ll help you look for them OK?

gamerchick · 18/06/2019 16:30

I have a voting button, I just don't know what the AIBU is.

Are you saying the men keep buggering off and leaving their wives to it?

I'd be annoyed if the husband's popped out for food and kept me waiting but otherwise I'd just enjoy the peace. How are they being CFs, are they leaving all the kids behind as well?

WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles · 18/06/2019 16:31

Do people with this vote button use the app?

Buggeritimgettingup · 18/06/2019 16:31

Ooooh I have a button!!!! Your op makes no sense so clearly Yabu

Flowerrose · 18/06/2019 16:32

Oh i think I get it now, I'm assuming "they" are your husbands from the very vague update where you said "husbands" and they've been getting drunk everyday and today they went to buy BBQ food but took 4 hours to return?

sugarbum · 18/06/2019 16:33

wTAF are you on about?

LimeKiwi · 18/06/2019 16:33

They are back now but pissed as farts

Are you sure you're not as well? Fess up, you've been on the beers too haven't you?
How many fingers am I holding up? Grin
