Cheese

My family love smelly cheese like Stilton. They put it on their cheese board after a meal pretty much every Sunday. I think it stinks and it puts me off the ice cream I want. Then they moan when I put my plates on the coffee table later on in the evening. Btw my plates only smell of cheddar at worst, perhaps a strong cheddar. I don’t get it.

And?

What's your question or aibu

Stilton belongs on a cheeseboard. Empty plates do not belong on a coffee table.

Ishoulddomore · 17/06/2025 19:26

Sorry. I should have said aibu putting my plates on the table

"Plates" as in plates of meat = feet?

SilenceOfTheTimTams · 23/07/2025 21:04

Well, this is a conundrum.

I have no fucking idea what you’re on about. But I love cheese. So YABU whatever.

Don't be xenophobic to the cockney sparra

Urgh!
Is this really about putting your feet on the table? If so, please don’t do that.
If it’s about actual plates… take them to the dishwasher or sink. My 5&6yr olds are capable.

DeedlessIndeed · 24/07/2025 20:33

God, wash your feet pal.
A strong cheddar? Don't waft them in peoples faces.

devildeepbluesea · 24/07/2025 20:34

Plates belong in the sink
Cockney rhyming plates belong along the sofa, opposite to your head.
cheese belongs in my belly.
HTH

Whaleandsnail6 · 24/07/2025 20:34

Yabu

If you are talking about empty plates that have had cheese on, put them in the kitchen where they belong

If you are talking about feet, you are completely unreasonable and should keep your gross bare feet off the table.

Floranan · 24/07/2025 20:37

I hate absolutely hate feet on the table, it’s gross if you want to put your feet up get a foot stool. You put food on a table and you’ve had your feet on it !

My family like smelly cheese and I'm annoyed that they are bothered by me putting my smelly feet on the coffee table. AIBU?

You absolutely would be but I think you live under a bridge.

Oh, right. The OP’s channeling Chas and Dave.

What you wanna do, my old China, is get your plates up the apples and pairs and give ‘em a scrub in the rub-a-dub-dub. And make sure your daisy roots and almond rocks are well clean.

She's playing the long game. It took over a month to determine she was talking about feet!
