AIBU tit for tat

[ThedaBara]

Lighthearted, and we've both said sorry now.

Told DH I have a feeling I might be coming down with tonsillitis (not covid, did the LFT), and he said 'you're speaking it into existence, if you just ignore it it'll go away'. Later that day he comes home from the park saying he's pulled his back lifting DC onto his shoulders, so I go 'you're speaking it into existence'. He got the hump, walked up the stairs slamming every door. I was being a bit petty, but he should be able to take some of his own expert advice now and then. So aibu, or him, or both of us?

He's having a tantrum because you pointed out what an utter tit he is.

He was a nob! I'm glad you got your own back

He was being a tit and now he’s having a strop over it but if he can’t take it then he shouldn’t hand it out. Good on you for getting your own back hopefully he’ll twice before he says something daft again.

OP yes that I hope he can do humility

I hope you’re not getting tonsillitis, or worse, strep. Strep makes me very bitchy tbh.

As for DH and his ‘back’, it can’t hurt that much if he’s capable of putting it into pouty door slamming. Embarrassed for him honestly

I sometimes pretend I'm ill and see if dh cones down with my imaginary ailment. After years of stealing my ailment limelight it gets annoying.
Not mature I know but funny to see him frantically coming up with reasons he is unwell after all.
Yeah ok dh.

Both of you. Plus you for not taking a PCR test. LFDs are not meant for symptomatic testing. Please get a PCR test. Thank you.

Good for you OP!

I love that! ‘You are speaking it into existence’. I would be using that one on him regularly now….

What’s sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander, as they say. If he dishes it out he has to learn to take it!

Thanks for making me laugh this morning!

I must try that one on DH!
