Baked 23 cookies, dh ate 8 of them

I baked some cookies after dinner, like I do most weekends so the kids had some slightly less unhealthy snacks to go in their lunch boxes and to just have in the house. At the end of the night I went to put them in a container from the cooling rack and only 14 remained. I had one, so dh took 8 of them in the two hours since I cooked them! What kind of shitty self control is that.

I feel more pissed off that I took a little bit of time to do something nice (mainly for the kids, we're adults, we don't need bloody biscuits), and he's just gone for it with no respect for anyone else. Only apologised when I called him out for it. Ugh.

Is this still going?! I thought we all (including the OP) had a hearty laugh about this in the first few pages and then moved on

At this point it’s giving obsession. Why on earth are you quoting me when I was replying to OP who’s tagged me in a post the previous day? I deliberately didn’t comment on your posts to (try) avoid a repeat of the other day when our circular & heated discussion that was going nowhere and overtaking the thread. I’d already said on Tuesday, I’d nothing more to say to you and yet here you are again.

And it’s not “a bit rich” to comment that it’s still going on, it’s an observation . I’d not been on the thread for a day and there were over 25 new messages.

Secondly, in my post saying I’d just easily make a new batch, I also stated sometimes in that situation I’d get my man to make a new batch as well! Even if I hadn’t though it’s AIBU, not everyone will agree with OP - such as me and others. I didn’t verbally attack or call her names, I expressed an opinion (that I still hold) in a reasonably measured way that she was BU on an AIBU!

But as I’ve said atp, I’ve zero interest in if OP or her partner bakes another cookie again. I’m more curious as to why you are continually trying to engage me into an argument?!

Edited

😂

Look, I’m fine with responding to you. I’m always happy to engage. I think it was you who’d said you had nothing more to say, and yet…!

I can’t be bothered to go into who said what when BUT you didn’t suggest OP’s DH replace the batch! I checked the other day. You said you’d generally encourage him to bake as well or something. Not specifically to replace this batch.

Doesn’t really matter in the scheme of things, I guess. But I don’t like inaccuracy and nonsense as a rule so I objected to the trend of suggesting OP was in the wrong. DH caused inconvenience; he apologises and fixes it. Simple.

@Crepester reactivated it. Wasn’t me - honest!

@Crepester reactivated it. Wasn’t me - honest!

But I should clarify that the post I originally quoted of @Crepester was not in fact her first post. It was just the first one of hers that had caught my eye. She’d already had quite a few unsupportive things to say by then 😂

I missed this nonsense yesterday, AIBU is not necessarily to validate the OP with “supportive” posts, I think she was BU and that’s that.

😵‍💫 I don’t even recall if it was my 1st or 3rd post or whatever and you do. This focus on all my posts since Sunday is odd @BernardBlacksBreakfastWine

If you were OP it’d maybe be less weird, but it’s turned into you haranguing everyone, who disagrees with OP.

I return to this thread only when I log on MN and see I’ve been quoted/tagged (usually by you !). Since Tuesday afternoon, I’ve made 3 posts including this one. It’s false to say a main reason for it rumbling on is me (and presumably not you 😂) you’ve been all over it even when I wasn’t posting and
yesterday‘s reply was because you’d tagged me in a reply I made to OP.

There was zero reason for you to reply on behalf of OP. It’s getting weird!
