There are so many wonderful examples of these, please share your favourites. Bonus points for links.

I remember one when OP was annoyed if the cost of children's birthday gifts weren't higher than the cost of hosting the party per child.

And the classic from a few weeks ago when OP thought it was ok to block the shared driveway and thought their neighbour who lived at the end was the unreasonable one.

I bet there are better ones out there though...

All the ones where OP has got annoyed with husband/ partner, just because they didn’t wish OP Happy Birthday on FB and refused to partake in a staged
( either first DC birthday or Mother’s Day ) photo shoot with PROPS!!!

Hilariously fucking ridiculous 🤣

Oh my days. The initial question she’s being unreasonable. The promissory note bit is full on insanity.

Thanks for this one @snurtifier - that's my morning sorted 😆
OP saying her DD is 33 months old is a good sign of what may come (not 2.9 or nearly 3, I'm surprised it's not 142 weeks 🤪)

That was bloody brilliant. She gave a "promissory note" to the mechanic previously too. I'm amazed he ever did any work for them again

Wow! That has got to be a wind up. Real people like that don't exist, surely.

I thought promissory notes were only a thing in 'The game of Life'. Only time I've ever used them anyway (I always choose the university route).

My fave response;
"What flavour Pringles? This is important." 😄

Oh my god I’ve nearly wet myself reading this one. Genuinely sat on the sofa giggling my head off. This is brilliant. Thank you.

I think about that poster more than I think about some family members of mine...
