DP put Shake n Vac in the mince instead of salt. We are it and only realised later.

AIBU to seek medical assistance?

Photo please of your salt container next to the Shake n Vac, so we can judge.Also why are your cleaning products next to your condiments?

InTheShadowOfTheMushroomCloud · 10/08/2020 22:21

I didn't know you could still get shake n vac!

@Wavescrashingonthebeach

I once drank my contact lens solution. Id put my lenses in at my desk before going out to lunch, came back all hot and bothered after a brisk walk back and downed the last of the water in the little plastic cup on my desk. Except it wasnt water Blush my face was a picture apparently....
My eldest did this when she was about 2. I was putting my lenses in sitting on the sofa and had the little container balancing on my knee.

While I was mid insertion she came toddling up to me, picked the pot up and necked it! I was beside myself and straight on the phone to 111 but they said not to worry she would be fine! I only put my lenses in in the bathroom from then on though.

Does this mean you’ve been gaily gadding about hurling salt all over the carpets?

Wavescrashingonthebeach · 10/08/2020 22:28

@clare8allthepies

Oh dear your poor DD ha yes its perfectly safe though, its basically saline so although tastes nasty wont do harm!

@MouthBreathingRage Happy to report that I've never watched any of the Bridget Jones stuff. I hear she's rather annoying.

How many units do you drink a week?

Isinknot · 10/08/2020 22:33

Everyone who has asked why cleaning products are next to the salt - it's all lined up on the windowsill.

I hope not, @ExtraOnions, the Daily Mail is an atrocious rag.

Maybe you should get those childproof locks for the cleaning cupboard for your DP who sounds like a total imbecile

goingtotown · 10/08/2020 22:45

Daily Mail would like this one.

Why?!!
Wavescrashingonthebeach · 10/08/2020 23:00

@Isinknot

IKR?! Ornaments on window sill. Salt in kitchen cupboard & cleaning products in cupboard under sink or both are just everywhere over kitchen counters cause the place is a tip rn in my case

Wavescrashingonthebeach · 10/08/2020 23:01

I meant @giantpinesahem haha

MumsyMumIAmNot · 10/08/2020 23:01

This is a joke 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

FlamingoAndJohn · 10/08/2020 23:04

So do you mean you use ‘table salt’ in your cooking?
That isn’t up to MN standards at all pink Himalayan salt ideally. Malden sea salt will do at a push.

Honestly, standards are slipping.

i did laugh sorry-reminds me of only fools when uncle albert mixes up the coffee and bisto

Look on the bright side, OP. No need for Vi-Poo tomorrow.

SRS29 · 10/08/2020 23:14

@Isinknot

If you lot knew DP, you wouldn't ask so many questions, you would simply sigh and shake your heads.

Why didn't I smell it? To be honest I was more than a little merry.

He, I cannot speak for.

More ‘shake n vak’ your heads .......trolls alert Grin

@DaphneFanshaw

At least it was shake and vac, not a pet hamster. Wink
@DaphneFanshaw first thing I thought it was lolatheshowgirl and the hamster in the stew! Christ, that was a billion years ago!

There's got to be a place to store cleaning products and foodstuffs separately!

DramaAlpaca · 10/08/2020 23:18

I don't care if this is a joke or not, it's got me howling 🤣

I've been trying to read some of the best bits to DH but am spluttering too much to make any sense.

Thanks for the laughs, you witty lot Grin
