To wish I had keyed this fucknugget's car?

Woke up with a sore, scratchy throat this morning and no cold remedies left in the house, so braved the crowds at my local Sainsbury's to stock up. I mention this because I wouldn't choose to shop on Christmas Eve unless absolutely necessary.

Came back to my car, and this prize dickhead had totally blocked me in. Waited for 10mins in the cold and drizzle and the fuckwit didn't even apologise. Said I could've squeezed in if I'd tried. Then tried to blame his (because of course it was a fucking man), shit parking on the car on the other side.

Disclaimer: I would never actually do such a thing. I have been brought up better than that, and the thought never even entered my head at the time. I'm just fantasising about it now, as I'm sat here nursing a lemsip.

Feel free to get your own festive rage off your chest here

My festive rage is directed at the flu, which will not fuck off and leave me be so I can enjoy Christmas. It is fucking relentless and I'm on about day 10 now, still coughing violently and my swallowing razor blades. Merry fucking Christmas to me 😭

Aw sounds awful hope you get over it soon !

MortalWomb4t · 24/12/2024 21:55

Why is it the heavy footed vaginastains aka my upstairs neighbours not even relent for one fucking day.

I swear, I'm so close to having one alcoholic beverage too many, heading upstairs and ripping 4 years of pent up frustration right out of the silly looking bints face.

But alas, I don't fancy being locked away over Christmas, or indeed at all.

However, if the purge was a real thing, I wouldn't have far to travel!

Mummylovesmonkeys · 24/12/2024 22:13

I dont know about Fucknugget being my word for 2025 - I think I will go with Vaginastains!!! 😂

iamnotalemon · 24/12/2024 22:25

I'm stealing fucknugget

PlanBea · 24/12/2024 23:08

I once returned to my car to someone squeezed into the hatchings around the disabled bay I was parked in, they had to overhang the front of my car at an angle because of a wall to their other side. Then they had the nerve to swear at me for daring to park in the disabled bay when I'm not disabled. Despite me having my blue badge on display and using walking aids.

SabreIsMyFave · 24/12/2024 23:10

Fucknugget. 😆

YANBU to think this @BestestBrownies But it's best that you didn't actually do it!

Tortielady · 24/12/2024 23:27

We live in a terrace with on-road parking. A fucknugget parked their car outside our house at some point this evening. Which is fine. We don't have a car and anyway, you don't own the road outside your house. What was not fine was when the alarm started up: fucknuggetting bleep-bleep-bloody-bleep-bleep-bleep-bleep, then stopping and starting again. . .we haven't gone to bed yet, but if it starts again later, I'll be lying in wait for the owner with some very unfestive opinions for them.

My Christmas rage is directed at whatever bloody virus has caused my four year old to spike a temperature at bedtime on Christmas Eve ffs. He's only just a fortnight over an absolutely hideous flu!

Dillythedallyduck · 24/12/2024 23:49

Must be the season for it, some teen in a big car, who didn't look old enough to drive, parks across the bottom of my driveway this morning. I had to go round knocking on neighbour's doors to find out who's it was.
Then when I found him he walked slowly to the car (no apology) sniggering all the way, had a long chat with his mate before he moved it.
Then he reversed into a neighbour's drive a few doors down, when I went to drive past he deliberately pulled out of the driveway directly in front of me so I almost went in the back of him Xmas Angry

Poor little boy. And poor you. I hope he's better soon.

MovedonfromMartin · 25/12/2024 01:10

I'm also here to say thank you @BestestBrownies for fucknuggett. I hope I remember it when I need it!

Bestwishes23 · 25/12/2024 01:11

Not the point of the thread but I've found Co-op Maximum Strength Cold/Flu Sachets amazing. Recently got over that awful flu and I found those provided such a relief for symptoms. Hope you start feeling better soon, OP 🌸

ThewrathofBethDutton · 24/12/2024 19:42

Nope, no festive rage here but would like to thank you most sincerely for the gift of the word “FUCKNUGGET”

This shall grace my vocabulary in the year of 2025 frequently and often..
Bloody brilliant!

Couldn’t agree more! I saw this and thought exactly the same.

No such thing as a cold remedy, lemsip is a total con.

Not entirely a con. It doesn't do much for my colds but lemsip makes me high.

DreamTheMoors · 25/12/2024 01:24

I walked into Christmas to my entire family discussing ME — their mouths slammed shut so hard I’m surprised their teeth didn’t shatter.
I could never figure it out because I didn’t spend any time with them and zero time some of them.
That was my last Christmas with my family.

Christmas rage directed at my cake, which is for boxing day knees up and which is FLAT. Been making cakes for 40 years and never a flatter cake have I surveyed. Im going to cut it into squares and it is going pretend it's a tray bake

My mum always said that if anyone begins to look, just jump around.
It’ll give them something to look at and immediately take their attention off whatever you’re worried about - in this case, your lovely cake.
And now I miss my mum lol.

My festive rage is directed at my BIL, who is still unable to spell my name correctly. After 20 years.
( And yes, it's a very easy, common, 5 letter English name)
I swear he does it as a power thing.

My step-sister consistently mispronounces my name. I know that she does it to try to annoy me.

But then, she’s an ignorant cunt.

You mean the Purge isn’t a real thing?

Oops.

Potato in exhaust pipe maybe?!

PyongyangKipperbang · 25/12/2024 02:47

MontyDonsBlueScarf · 24/12/2024 21:12

Nooo don't whisk potatoes, they turn into wallpaper paste. Ask me how I know. Your best bet is a fork, or push them through a colander.

I strongly disagree as does St Delia!

The key thing is to make sure they are a)The most important one, the right kind of potatoes. Some varieties just dont make good mash, others dont make good chips etc. You really do need to check. b) they are thoroughly drained and allowed to steam off their residual water and c) are cut into small pieces first.

Electric whisk makes the absolute best mash!

pinkstripeycat · 25/12/2024 02:51

Porkyporkchop · 24/12/2024 19:43

I had an extreme amount of rage directed at the potato masher today. It decided on Christmas Eve to break at the point where the masher meets the handle. It’s clearly a git, that is determined to spoil my Christmas .

Edited

My Nan used to make the most amazing, creamy mash. She used a fork! No masher for her. She would mix it for ages to make it creamy. I couldn’t stand the noise of the fork scraping the metal pan and would sit in the lounge with my fingers in my ears. No non stick for her.

fivebyfivebuffy · 25/12/2024 03:06

My rage is at someone at work

He sent me a teams message 2 days ago to do something, I said "in future please direct anything like this to X via email or the general teams chat so it doesn't get missed"

"No problem" he replies

I finished work yesterday slightly early and put my out of office on.

2 minutes before he finished work, he sends me a teams message to do something. I've already left, it's now been missed, it should have been sent how I asked it to be Angry and now the client will be pissed off

Princessfluffy · 25/12/2024 08:05

A relative wrote a card to me wishing me a "healthy and productive" new year.

I've had a chronic illness for ten years, I'm neither healthy and nor as a consequence productive and that isn't going to change in 2025!

Surely wishing people a "productive" NY isn't a thing?
