3 things that are unreasonable

[Ori2021]

1. Centre Parcs. Too expensive for a shed in a wood.

2. Priti Patel. Don't know what's going on with her but I don't like it.

3. The pretty female presenter on C-Beebies who sings cheesy weird ditties ALL THE TIME. Badly. It's damaging my mental health. And I actually find it so cringe, I have to either look away or leave the room.

YABU for 1, Centerparcs is great for a short break. I'm sad that we missed ours last year and will miss it this year.

That said you can be humbly forgiven as you are spot on with regard to Priti Patel. I am not in favour of women being bitchy about other women but as far as she is concerned the gloves are off.

I have to disagree about centreparcs... I love going there!

1. Derbyshire police's inability to differentiate between legislation and guidance and basic common sense (recent news articles fining people)

1. People who this that Boris is just doing his best

1. People who drive in the middle lane on the motorway when there is nothing in the left lane or when they are driving next to the car to their left but not actually over taking it. How do so many people not understand how motorway driving works?!

1. Bloody auto correct!! Clearly 2 should be people who think that Boris is doing his best!

My 3 things.

1. Photos on social media of excessive stacks of xmas gifts under the tree.
2. People who smoke in their back garden right next to my fence.
3. People who have garden security lights that would light up the Emirates stadium and leave them on all night.

1&2 yanbu
3 I’m fortunate enough to have never seen her, but I’m sure yanbu as children’s presenters are fucking annoying!

1. People who have loud phone conversations in their garden, so you can hear all their business.
2. The price of takeaway coffee.
3. Cars that either don’t turn headlights on at dusk or drive for days after fog with fog lights full on.

1. people who have far too many utensils for the pot that holds them/too much cutlery that spills over the trays (I work in people's homes and this is rather common). You don't need 4 identical wooden spoons plus 2 further silicone ones

2. the people who designed the compound I live in who came up with the nonsensical layout of numbered flats (starts in the 70s then next row over is 40s) and didn't think signage would be helpful

3. the deliveroo drivers who never read my simple instructions on how to find my flat and end up huffing and puffing and telling me they're outside when in fact they're at another building

Online learning, using fucking teams and glow accounts. I'm shit with computers and it's driving me to distraction, and we only started today. I hate doing everything online, it stresses me out because we can't seem to get any of it to work, or flow the way I think it's supposed to.

Pregnancy sickness and heartburn. Why is there not a fucking cure for it yet!

The bin men for not taking my extra cardboard away last week. I had a big delivery with pram, car seat etc and crushed all the boxes down and put them into the biggest box along with some other cardboard and they just left it! Why?

1, the government for doing what they do

2, my car for puking on my carpet refusing to eat and putting on his dressing gown of doom because of a HAIRBALL

3,my ex for forgetting his sons birthday remembering it suddenly and demanding to see him so I have to upset his entire day (suspect autism so it will upset him having routine disruption)

4, ME! for letting my ex get to me 🤣

Cat not car! Can I change three to my FUCKING AUTOCORRECT?

Mine are as follows:
1; Doctors surgeries where all queries are now on line and they never get back to you.
2; Boris Johnson et al.
3; The extortionate fees vets charge 😡

1. Covid
2. The weather - it's warmed up a bit this week but that brings the rain
3. I haven't seen my partner since March and not likely to any time in the near future - see 1.

Sounds about right @Ori2021

Can I add Boris Johnson?

Some AIBU specific ones:

1. people who take generic comments like 'I don't like x thing' personally and get defensive talking about why they like it so much and why OP is being unreasonable. Just follow the pattern of the thread and add your own (related are those who make out that anyone who expresses distaste for anything is a snob/bully)

2. people who make the already annoying abbreviations more annoying by using the wrong ones, so I end up reading a whole post about DF or DS expecting it to be about a father and son only to find it's about a friend and a sister and I have to reread the whole thing again

3. people who 'place mark' with a '.'

• follow the thread
• bookmark the comment you've read up to. Much easier to find your way anyway when you come back to it instead of scrolling all of the comments to find your dot

Oh and just thought of an extra

4. the app. Doesn't offer many of the features that the website does, a big one being voting. Surely it can be improved?

1. People who get right up in your face in home bargains
2. People who don't clean up after their pets
3. The way this government has handled the pandemic

Love this random list, OP.

Is there a sequel?

1. Claudia Winkelman (MiL asked me what was the matter with her eyebrows and i pointed out that was actually her fringe.)
2. cars, particularly gray ones, that drive without their lights properly on, at dawn or dusk or when it's a misty, rainy, low visibility day.
3. self important people on any website who think that they are dog's gift to the world and that we should all kowtow to their superior knowledge even though they repeatedly reveal how completely pig ignorant and rude they are.

I was wondering how your car had upchucked in the house. Unless of course you're extra special and have a carpeted drive/garage.

People who say (and write) MACdonalds instead of McDonalds

The fact Wuhan (and the rest of China) is now running as normal - HOW?!?

The fact that I have absolutely no energy or motivation to sort out my house even though there’s SO MUCH I have to do, I just cannot be bothered.

1. My neighbours who left their dog howling for most of last week

1. Me for being incapable of going to bed at a reasonable time

1. Boris Johnson and his chums for every single thing they do

quite agree, particularly with 3.

And 1. reminds me of the time I was on the bus to work and a young scuzzy tart got on while having a very loud conversation on her mobile. "yeah so I saw him and could see he had and so let him buy me some drinks and went back to his. In the taxi we so the driver kicked us out. And when we got to his door we were already and then he got his out and pushed it between my and then he all over my . But yeah I might give him a call. Seeya."

At which point she turned and saw the whole bus goggle eyed and with our mouths wide open with shock. And she said "WTF are you listening to? This is a private conversation!!!"

This is the best comment today!!! The image of a sulking car 😂😂😂

I am laughing so hard at the scuzzy tart story too

@purpleproses I think we live either side of the same neighbour!

My four year old is being extremely unreasonable
