To be annoyed with MNetters claiming they don’t understand

[youdounderstand]

You know the ones - they understand perfectly well but feign ignorance as a way of showing someone how terribly bizarre and peculiar the way they live is.

I don’t understand why you don’t just get a taxi - oh really, you don’t understand that not everyone can afford a taxi.

i don’t understand why you don’t retrain, as that will benefit your children more. Erm, sure.

i don’t understand why you decided to bottle feed if you wanted to breastfeed yeah course you don’t.

Is it me being a grumpy arse or is ‘I don’t understand’ really fucking annoying?

whenthebells yes. Not sure why it drives me potty. Maybe I should think quietly about it - I suspect my conclusions won’t be edifying for me.
