What makes you scream inside? (slightly light-hearted)

[ThirdTimeUnlucky]

For me - DP cooks a decent meal then goes on and on about how good it was. I agree but then it escalates to 'aren't I a brilliant cook' or 'you've got to admit I'm great in the kitchen' etc, blah blah blah. Does my nut in. I cook all the time and am happy with a 'thank you, that was nice'. End of!
(((((scream)))))).
AIBU to silently scream and not heap on huge praise? I cook all the time and he cooks now and then, usually something a bit fancy, using every utensil in the house. Yeah it's nice but he's not going to get on Master Chef or anything. (((((still screaming))))
light hearted - I realise I'm being OTT
Anyone else agree or have any different silent scream issues?

Yes mine does that. Especially if I'm unloading the dishwasher with a clatter. I then walk back to him and ask him to repeat it and he says "doesn't matter"

People who take a long time to tell a story that really doesn’t need a long time (or indeed, any time). Same with people who take forever to describe the plot of a film.

"Doesn't matter" is the worst.

Eating nosies and bags rustling arrrggghhh

I hate when people on cookery shows say 'I'm Italian/Spanish/Irish/whatever, food is so important to our culture'.

Food is important to everyone's culture. Calm down!

People who call women "females" as in "females are xyz" or "a female in the supermarket took the last gluten free loaf" or whatever. It sounds sneery. The word is woman unless it refers to/ was a female non human animal.

Sniffing in public (by which I mean anywhere I can hear it).

"His" instead of "he's"

Eg "his so cute"

No.
Just no.
He's so cute. He's.

No.

He's so cute. He's.

Or he’s instead of his. I have no idea why people are getting this wrong - and something so so basic, it’s really quite worrying.

REALLY hate ‘couple times’. It’s couple OF. Spoken language is different from written - otherwise it would be coupla times, which isn’t a word. I hate it with a passion, it’s so lazy, and it’s used throughout American novels so much nowadays.

My biggest bugbear is the freaking hyperbole used on this site. I’ve said this before, but it makes women out to be exactly what misogynistic men say we are - shrieking, overreacting harpies. In real life, no one truly screams or shakes or sobs or wails about, god I dunno, being expected to answer the front door or something.

Also, husband when he goes into ‘fix it’ mode. Husband, you know nothing about my job. Don’t try and offer opinions. Just nod at my rant and then I’ll be over it.

I love him really

Anyone who reads out their mobile number in any format other than 12345 123 123.

I literally can't understand it.

I don't read mine out in that format but mine has double numbers so I give it as

1234 double-5 double-5 678

People on here that say, on reading a (vaguely amusing) post, ‘I just spat/ snorted my tea out ...’

No. You didn’t.

Another expression I hate is when someone describes themselves as ethnic. What does that mean? Do we not all have an ethnic background? You. Are. Not. Special!

Oh, and “ reach out”. This smacks of longing and yearning. You did not reach out. You made a phone call.

Unnecessary single use plastics, like those stupid little soy sauce fish you get in sushi. When a bottle of sauce on the counter would do.
People using throw away wipes.
Plastic tat in party bags.
Cheap seasonal decorations, thrown away when broken
Basically, humans and their thoughtless waste.

my boss used to phone and say "I'm just touching base" ...it used to make me feel quesy 🤒

People that say brought instead of bought.

It doesn't get any worse.

People who decide that the hand sanitising station on the way into a shop is an excellent place to stand and have a chat. Just move! Chat somewhere else.

Teenagers insisting you didn't tell them something when they just didn't bloody listen.

DH is always the last to use our bathroom at night and when I go in there in the morning it always looks like there has been some kind of explosion. Towels on the floor, empty shampoo bottle in the sink, half drunk cup of tea on the side of the bath, toothpaste smeared on the mirror. Fuck knows what he does in there. It is his one sin, so I tend to let it go but I steel myself before I open the door each morning.

Your when the writer means you're. Ffs, the apostrophe represents the missing 'a' of are. So if you mean you are, then choose the correct one, not the first one you see on your phone. THEY ARE NOT INTERCHANGEABLE.

Also, breath rhymes with death and is the noun. Breathe rhymes with seethe and is the verb. THEY ARE NOT INTERCHANGEABLE.

@PrimeraVez - that is my son! He couldn't make more mess if he tried. But coming from an adult - yes I'd silently scream.

I have another one. My DM re-calling old family stories almost every time I see her. "Do you remember when.......?" Yes Mum, I was there, I haven't got senile dementia yet. But then goes on to tell the story anyway!!! (((scream)))

Family making snacks and leaving crumbs, smears of jam, buttery knife on the work surface! Clear up after yourselves you lazy bastards!!!!!

When my DH comes in from the garden and takes his shoes off and leaves them right in the middle of the doormat so when I want to go out of the door I have to move his shoes. Every. Single. Time.

My mum always did the...

“Do you remember so and so”
Me: “no”
“Well, her sisters cousin did this...”

I miss my mum lots. Don’t miss that though or the competitive busy-ness.

For me it’s the eating. I am misophobic but some things are worse than others. DH with a yoghurt pot when he starts scraping it. Yes it’s fucking empty STOP now.

We’ve implemented a three slurps and your done with milkshakes

YOU’RE

Sorry
