Harmless little acts of rebellion

[KungFuPandaWorks]

This is completely LIGHTHEARTED.

My husband absolutely cannot stand Cardi B at all. If she comes on the radio he will switch off, if her songs on the TV he will exit the room or change the channel. Now I don't think she's amazing but, I must admit she has some catchy songs.

My little act of rebellion is when I'm in the car alone, if Cardi B comes on the radio I will turn it up extremely loud and sing my heart out, even giving the woman herself a run for her money.

What are you little acts of rebellion?

Only if it was rude.

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime Maybe it depends on where you live. If the police came to our house, neighbours would assume someone had been in an accident or died and would be concerned. MIL and FIL live on a rough estate where police at the door means something a lot different!

You are awesome 😂😂😂

@AskingQuestionsAllTheTime - much as I don’t think wasting police time is a good thing - that is classic gold!

On our summer holiday this year the couple in the hotel room next to ours were just incredibly noisy, waking our baby up each night.

So every morning I turned their do not disturb sign over to please, make up the room.

When people insist on pulling out form behind a parked car even though I am approaching, can be clearly seen and the obstruction is on their side, I slowly inch forward until it's only just possible for them to squeeze past

Do you mean there's a parked car on the other side of the road, and an oncoming car pulls out onto your side of the road fully expecting you to give way? Usually a 4x4 or BMW

Happens a lot near where I live. I speed up slightly so they can't get through and make them reverse back. I can't tell you the names I've been called. (When I'm coming the other way, I always wait for oncoming traffic to pass so I'm not being a hypocrite for once in my life.)

My husband left a million pairs of shoes all over the house. I begrudgingly tidied them away, but put them together in odd pairs, which he didn't notice and wore an odd pair to work.

Hurrah!

Bread baps

A lot of self service tills have volume buttons on them if you look carefully. If a find one too nagging or rushing, I turn that shit down and have a leisurely scan.

The supervisors follow me and turn them up again sometimes they do it while I'm still scanning

A friend of mine had a falling out with her bff, but still had his car key fob. At random times of the day or night, she'd drive by and set off his car alarm. He told her later that he'd had that car in to every service station around, plus spent hours online to figure out what was wrong with it. I'm so proud of her. :-)

I did this to the candles in Asda the other week 😳

I told my sister about that and she was busy rearranging some mugs when the store manager came up behind her and said ‘uhummmmm’.

I have a photo of her getting caught red handed and it is very funny (there’s my Christmas cards sorted).

When m daughter moved out I cleared down my sky planner, including 400+ episodes of peppa pig that she’d taped for her son on a series link.

So when I visited her home recently when she was away I set the sky to tape on a series link about 8 programmes from the God channels.

My colleague is a recycling fanatic. I put recycleable waste in the other bin several times a week. She huffs and puffs and swaps it all over. She’s so convinced I’m stupid, I don’t think she’s twigged yet that I do it to annoy her.

@staedtlerpencil - brilliant - I shall remover this, could be very useful

When the car park barrier machine gives me a winky face and tells me to have a nice day I say ‘don’t wink at me, fuckface’ and feel a lot less patronised.

I can think of no others but will be putting some from this thread into practice soon.

@AskingQuestionsAllTheTime - the thing to do with TV licence stuff is put it back in the same envelope without a stamp, turn it over and write their postcode so that it appears in the envelope window. Write in capital letters across their letter, “when I can afford to buy a TV I will tell you, meanwhile have you got a spare to give away?”

Do they actually collect post they have to pay the postage for? If so, I'll start sending their letters back to them. We get about 8 every other day, despite telling them we haven't got a tv.

Ooh, I like that!

My dad hates junk mail.so if he ever gets anything that comes with a prepaid envelope, he puts all the junk in it and posts it back. Similarly, he fills things out with spoof details and posts them if they're Freepost

I like your Dad’s thinking Lotus.

@ElizaDee - open the envelope along one of the short sides so that the franked ‘stamp’ is not torn in any way. I also write “return to sender” neatly just under the window where their post code is displayed. I need to do this about every two months, been doing it for years. Postie told me all Mail with “return to sender” is returned. Over the years I have on occasion put a note in asking what has been on tv and asking for donations for the cost of a tv as I can’t seem to save enough; they never reply to this.

If the family put scrumpled up socks in the washing basket, ( when the're pulled off dirty and go into a ball ) I wash them, dry and return them in the same state !
