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?

I don’t think this is rebellion as such, but I enjoy air dropping this photos to unsuspecting commuters when I’m forced to use public transport

It is some sort of taxidermied creature, but what I don’t know! It has such a stupid look on its face, it makes me laugh every time I see it!

How does one do this...? And do they know it’s you? I could have a lot of fun in the office with that!

I think they get the name you’ve got registered on your phone, so they may know it’s you - but I only ever do it when I’m getting off a train or something and then turn off Bluetooth and feign innocence .

iPhone only - select a photo from your camera roll, select the icon like a square with the up arrow and you have the option to ‘airdrop’. Make sure you’re set to anyone in settings first!

(I also send this to DH randomly when we’re at home, I love this picture so much!)

When the DC (late teens) annoy me, I sing pop songs that they like. They are both really musical and can sing well and I can't sing to save my life and sound properly awful, but I love pop music and know all the songs they love, so I sing them until they beg for mercy and stop doing all the twatty annoying things that late teens do!

When I volunteered in a hospital we were not allowed to use the ward tea bags and milk officially but everyone did. I used to take great pleasure in making myself a cup of tea and seeing if anybody “sacked” me for it!

If any adverts come on the TV or podcast, I leave the room, or turn the volume down or sing aloud so I don't have to listen to whatever stupid crap they are trying to sell me.

I break the stalk off broccoli in the supermarket before I buy it. I don’t use that bit, so I’m not paying for it!

Why don't you eat the stalk? Tastes exactly the same as the florets!

Going into Tiger or some such place and setting all the egg timers or alarm clocks to go off at the same time.

I confess to doing this in Woolworths once with a bunch of wind up alarm clocks and no one noticed what I'd done because I cunningly set them to different times and to go off in groups.

It's fun to stay at the....

Yep...

I give myself the nicest looking sausages/chop/steak etc when dishing out dinner. Well, I cooked it, why not?

When out shopping I grab food stuff from the back of the fridge as usually they have a longer date
I’m sure I’ve got some more wild ones somewhere.

@HamiltonBentley You're my hero❤️

Irenewinters out of all of these, your kitKat crime shocks me the most. I would be fuming if I witnessed this.

I always do that.

Why thank you @readingismycardio - pettiest yet most satisfying thing I've ever done

I don’t wear tights to work even though our uniform policy says our line manager has to decree it hot enough not to or something first. I also wear a cardigan if it’s cold, despite it not being uniform.

Not only did I drink tea made with the patient teabags, I also ate the patient biscuits when I was working in the hospital! It’s the least I was owed tbh.

DH spray painted around the pot hole that broke his neck as it was still there many many months later.

Sometimes I book double appointment slots for my patients when I know they will need longer than the standard 15 minutes I am given, even though I’m not supposed to.

I sometimes move magazines, books, newspapers on shelves to obscure things I don’t like.

ElizaPancakes I would love to have that airdropped to me! I am going to turn my Bluetooth on, in fact, just in case I am ever in your vicinity.

although i work in the office part of our work, we're supposed to clock in and out because the factory staff don't think it's fair if we don't have to.

we're also supposed to have 30 minute lunches.

i've worked out that if i don't bother to clock out when i go out for lunch, the clocking system automatically clocks me out at 12, and back in at 12:30.

meaning i can saunter back in after 1, and according to the clockings i've still only had 30 minutes.

i don't cheat my employer - i always work my 7.5 hours per day, but i'll be fucked if i'm only taking 30 mins for lunch.

@Saucery consider me primed and ready!

I spent 10 years regularly traveling to London from Yorkshire and having a wee in the 1st class toilets at Kings Cross. Then they employed a Rottweiler on the desk to keep riffraff such as me out

on a separate note, i get secret purchases delivered to work, so i can sneakily infiltrate them into the house, so DW doesn't know/complain.

she's just as bad - she's forever telling me she's "had it for ages" when i ask about a blatantly new dress/top/pair of shoes i've not seen before. i easily do enough washing and ironing in our house to know what's new and what isn't.

i also forgot about grass cuttings over the fence (our garden neighbours a playing field, and the other side of our fence is a small gap, then a massive hedge, then the field).

saves me loads of trips to the tip, and stinky bags of grass in my garden before i can be bothered to take them.

I won't remove Ps pants from jeans etc if the legs are threaded through the pants like kids do and wash them as they are

I always make sure I have removed my shopping before the recorded voice on the self service checkout tells me to. It makes me feel superior to her.

I add random treats to the food shop and put them in my secret hiding place so the teenagers can't devour them.

Occasionally I take a day off (flextime) and don't tell my family. Sending them off to school and then going back to bed is an awesome feeling.
