Things that PISS you off, but you can't really say so.

[pinknailvarnish1]

I have a few. Can't say them out loud (except to DH).

MIL & FIL - multi millionaires. Spend loads of money on themselves, lavish holidays, sports cars, only the very best restaurants etc. Never ever do they give a penny to their adult children (and one is flat broke). This is despite them both having been given property and a thriving business by a parent themselves.

My Dad - Overbearing, alcoholic, violent outbursts etc, all through our childhood. He's now decrepit and I have to do so much for him. I resent it.

Brother - keeps saying he's broke, whilst living like a rockstar. Just spend £20k on a holiday, lives in a £600k house, drives top of the range car, but often claims poverty - stop lying!

And breathe......

Anyone else?

People who unnecessarily and repeatedly call you on Teams without checking if you’re busy to ask trivial questions which could be dealt with using an email or a message.

I have a colleague who does this four or five times a day, usually when my “do not disturb” status is on and always when I am on another call or on a deadline. When I answer (which I do about half the time), he will say: “Sorry to call.” If you’re really sorry don’t do it all the sodding time.

Its always trivial and non essential questions or just wanting to shoot the breeze.

That's a true friend though. Who cares enough to give you a shake. My best friend did that to me as well and she was right to. It is hard to listen to but ultimately our friends know us well.

People who put their feet in seats whilst on public transport. And others who place bags next to themselves to prevent others sitting.

People who bring their "whole selves to work". Our intranet had an article for our internal equality week in May with a bloke talking about his fluid sex life (multiple partners) and how he celebrated it and was glad to share to raise awareness at work.

Ewww. No thanks, I don't care how many people you shag Euan can you just give me your data reports on time please?! Boak.

I hate how judgy that post to you, I am in a similar situation.

I'm very happy with my skinny wrists! 😂 Sadly, it means most of my bracelets no longer sit where they should, minor, but I had one made from my horse's tail and now it virtually fits my elbow!

Ooooooh, I get sick of this word too. Especially when its shortened! To the first 4 letters.

Utterly unfair.
DP says “ you are doing so well”
Everyone says it. It writhes me. I know they mean well and I feel a bitch thinking these thoughts. But can’t help it.

They get to live their life normally. I get to be poked and prodded for blood, live with one real breast, live with dormant MBC, live with an aggressive other cancer, shit myself every scan results day, deal with neutropenia, deal with oral thrush, deal with being on long term sick, deal with no hair.

One more time ( shouting loudly ) 😆
ITS BLOODY SHIT. I appreciate your sentiment, I really do. But it’s bloody awful!!!!!

I was telling acquaintances to 'say it, don't spray' it long before Friends, I'm pleased I was able to help Phoebe out!! Embarrassing one's children and grandchildren is always an added bonus!

In that situation you can ask to sit there, I've never had anyone refuse so far.

I was coming to say something similar, can't understand all the anxiety about losing the filling, I have some ancient Pyrex casseroles with glass lids, the lids are great for anything like kievs and the bonus is that I can add more garlic butter. I put them in the airfyer too.

People who use mental health issues as an attempt to avoid taking responsibility for their poor behaviour.

I think beard is different from hair since you have to basically kiss him there. I'd say something. I'd have to, after all it's what you're attracted to and if you prefer your own husband without a beard you have the right to say so.

The late mother of my partner was like that. Not only did she speak really quietly, she droned...everything was at the same level, and she had a very strong accent to top it off! Partner is on good terms with his ex, and she once said to me 'is 'partner's mother' still totally unintelligible?'

I'm half deaf and having conversations with her was a nightmare. I was lucky if I heard one word in ten. Didn't help she was a boring as fuck whiner as well...

That my niece didn’t ask her 8 yr old cousin to be a bridesmaid at her wedding. Not childfree wedding, no tons of family to choose from, a very well behaved little girl who wouldve loved the chance to be a bridesmaid.
Instead she chose 6 adult bridesmaids for the instagram effect.
Obviously we’ve not said anything but dh and I pissed off and I have to say it’s really privately soured things for us with that side of the family.

The fact that so much of your life can be affected by the one thing over which you have absolutely no control: the circumstances of your birth.

Parents who don’t rsvp to kids parties. I get that invites go missing or forgotten about from time to time but to just ignore it completely?
We are all busy, I get it, but it takes less than 2 minutes to text.

Influencers on Instagram always trying to sell you something (usually something really shit)
Every other post is an ‘ad’
Even worse when they use their kids to flog something.

I love my dear mum to pieces and I feel a bit nasty for even writing this but she has the most terrible table manners. She talks with her mouth full when eating, food is literally falling out of her mouth, she uses her fingers to get pickles and stuff from the jar, she double dips with the spoon and if we’re preparing a buffet and she’s helping, she will pick at it as she’s going along. I have told her before to use a spoon for the jars, even told her to close her mouth when talking but she just laughs. I often have to look away when she’s eating.

I really can't understand the fad for a netball team of bridesmaids, surely they will detract from the bride who will expect to be the centre of attention. It used to be a couple of small ones and an adult one to keep them under control.

I can beat that

I was once at work 8-3 so up at 6am and home by about 3:10pm

We where having friends dog for the week and had arranged for him to drop the dog off around 4 ish

We knew he'd be late (he's got undiagnosed adhd) and that was fine,he'd be with us about 5pm (we expected this)

5 came and went,so did 6,7,8,9and 10pm

All messages went unanswered and he wasn't picking up his phone,his girlfriend (who was at home) said he'd left just after 4pm

I'm light sleeper so I knew if I went to bed,he'd wake me up by pressing the doorbell (we have a weird door setup and don't hear if people knock)

11:55pm he finally showed up (God knows what happened from him leaving his house and getting to ours)

I let dp deal with it and went to bed

I was past being worried about him and didn't care if it was rude

Even the poor dog looked a bit pissed off!

Oh my bad! I meant competitive hahaha!

Influencers and the sad people who copy them

People who think its ok to shout, swear and be rude against customer facing staff

Retired people who shop on Saturday mornings, complain its busy and piss off shoppers who worked all week. People say that the retired are lonely. Not the ones I see as shop with their DW/DH or a friend.

Companies that charge for buying by card, when the ONLY option is to pay by card!!!

Doing things to impress SM. Do your own bloody thing. Be unique

Exactly this, she won’t even be friends with most of them in ten years and has already fallen out with her closest friend.

I am Welsh!

Colleagues who moan theyre too busy at work - then when you need help they ‘don’t have capacity’. When they clearly do. Then moan again that they don’t have the work to reach their targets. Tell you what - I’ll just do all the work then. I’m not pissing about passing stuff back and forth. At least if I keep it I know it will get done properly,
