Feel free to add your own but I want the following to fuck off:
Period pains
My bosses
Having to work for a living
DH (briefly anyway)
Period pains again
Children not going to sleep
Celebs posting videos of themselves working out on Instagram (at least there is a fuck off button for that one)
Having to get up for work in the morning
Joint pain after an injury
Periods, full stop.

Smugness on Facebook
Not having enough money
Rude/patronising customers
That weird smell that I can't pinpoint but that is going to turn out to be something disgusting decomposing under an item of furniture
Hoovers that used to suck and then randomly stop sucking without being blocked or broken
Damp
Mould
Slugs

All of these things can just fuck off right now and take rain with them!

All the objects I’ve dropped on the floor today, and am just too massively pregnant to comfortably bend down and pick them up.
They can all fuck off. Hmm

IceAndASlice123 · 23/08/2019 13:22

Oh yes....

  1. Smugness on Facebook and constant sharing of couple/family photos.
  2. People who think Facebook is real and who take all the comments and likes very personally.
  3. Slow walkers or those that block up the pavement
  4. Not feeling comfortable in the heat
  5. People who 'forget' to pay me back
  6. People who cough loudly/sneeze really dramatically

Menopause

Getting spots even though I am 34
People not understanding that I can't eat whatever I want and playing down my bowel disease
People not doing their jobs properly and me taking the flack for it

The degenerative disease that means I am slowly losing the use of my muscles.

The friend who smugly tells me she won't say about her DD development because she doesn't want me to be jealous.

My MIL who is constantly offering advice that is both outdated and pointless and then getting offended when I don't follow it.

My DM for ruining my wedding day. And generally being a dick.

I'm sure there are more. I'm hot, tired and hormonal.

People who sniff

Buddytheelf85 · 23/08/2019 17:17

people who tell me to cherish every second with my newborn or post on Instagram about how they’ve been living in a beautiful blissful love bubble since their baby arrived.

I love my baby, obviously. But having a newborn and recovering from a traumatic birth are utter utter shit, and I’m looking forward to both being over.

Plantar fasciitis
Anxiety disorder
Anyone who phones me about PPI or a road traffic accident I haven’t had

Cancer - lost my mum last year to it and my nan this week
Dementia - it slowly took my nan away from us over the last few years
Psoriatic arthritis - my joint ache constantly
Wasps - they just ruin summer
Insincere people - just be honest and real

That's it for now

tigger001 · 23/08/2019 17:32

The creepy adults that talk like children on that advert.

nearlynermal · 23/08/2019 19:33

People who think that the best first aid, whether you've tripped over the pavement or had a massive coronary, is to haul you back into your feet as fast as possible. WTF is that about?

ddl1 · 23/08/2019 19:44

Actually most of the more powerful world leaders!

Inconsiderate drivers and cyclists, e.g. those who ignore pedestrian lights.
