Staying with a friend.

I can't even.

Do I fix it?

Do I tell them how wrong this is?

Do I end the friendship?

If DP did this I'd obviously LTB.

Unless... am I wrong? Have I been doing this wrong all my life?

SEND HELP.

(Lighthearted, obvs)

My DH installed the roller blind in the bathroom like that. Beat that.

I had my blinds made to measure and then fitted by the same company, the man still put them in the wrong way round. It has haunted me for 4 years now.

DH and DD do this. I just turn it round as soon as I notice Smile

Is there someone you could talk to IRL about this?

Yeah, she's dripfeeding like a leaky cistern.

I'm so sorry, I feel like I'm mentally unspooling my brain's loo roll.

I don't want to flounce but I didn't come on here for this kind of abuse.

Mr Wheeler's patent shows one sheet re moved . Frugal .

I would change it.

Whatever you do, please don't look in her kitchen cupboards. You may find she's stored her cups and glasses rim side down!! Shock

MilkTrayLimeBarrel · 29/07/2019 11:38

No - it is correct!

Maybe I've been harsh, @ThatCurlyGirl but what do you expect if you post on AIBL(oo)?

Jeremybearimybaby · 29/07/2019 11:41

I haven't RTFT, as I'm too afraid of being traumatised further. She's...she's...she's... she's got a toilet brush too, hasn't she? I think only a flamethrower can save the day now!

ThatCurlyGirl · 29/07/2019 11:42

You're right @MarianaMoatedGrange I was posting to AIBU for traffic.

I'll ask MN to move this to the relationships board.

I know someone who rims his cups and glasses. I sleep with him occaisonally. He's my walk on the dark side.

MyCatHatesEverybody · 29/07/2019 11:44

This thread has made me spot me coffee all over my keyboard. I'd grab some lol roll to mop it up but a) it's the wrong way round on the holder and I can't work out how to read a piece off and b) I'm worried it's been darked on and had spider willies on it.

ThatCurlyGirl · 29/07/2019 11:45

@Jeremybearimybaby

Two words...

Toilet.

Sponge.

I know, I know. I'm going to order her the toilet freedom programme book.

@MarianaMoatedGrange

I know someone who rims his cups and glasses

Does he hide his passcode? Does he bring his phone everywhere? Has he recently lost weight and had a wardrobe makeover?

Only one explanation:

Cottaging.

I'm so sorry, but better to know now than later.

The shock has also made me lose the ability to correct my autocorrect.

@MyCatHatesEverybody

Spider willies makes up for any typo. Know your worth, you deserve happiness.

Quick, go to Waitrose and buy her a show pineapple to redress the balance OP.

Wombleish · 29/07/2019 11:50

My DH used to hang the loo roll this way, as that's what PIL do. I didn't LTB, because he came to realise my way is the right way.

I would do but they only do massive ones and they require planning permission. I don't want to annoy my neighbours but they do smoke weed all the time and it wafts through my window...

Oh. My. Bog! I've been a cup rimmer's beard! Shock

Have you gone NC with MIL? I know it's hard but you need to put DC first and tell them this isn't OK.
