to want to kick the farkin shit out of my next door neighbour

[smugmarried]

she has just left the house and as she left, she let the door slam shut instead of holding it so that it closed quietly.

YABU

Aw, I was hoping for jesusofutopia!

she is 83 by the way but good for her age -

I don't see why I should go to all the trouble of holding my door and gently pulling it so as not to make a noise whilst she just pulls it behind her and saunters off down her garden path whilst it slams noisily

you want to 'kick the farkin shit' out of an 83 year old?

Ah yes, slammed door annoyance is often cited as a legitimate defence in cases of actual bodily harm (especially when the victim is a pensioner).

Me too, Rhubarb

Has she asked you to hold it and close it gently?

gawd, I slam my door all the time when I leave the house. I could hold it so it's a bit quieter, but isn't life too short?

pah

These old people, bloody pain in the arse they are! They really should ban them you know.

errr - I thought this was a joke, in the light of previous "violent thoughts" threads ....

But the'joke' runs on and on....

tis v dull

I think YABU it may be the kind of door she has rather than an attempt to annoy you.

What kind of door does she have?
I ask because we got a new front door and to close it properly you have to bang it shut then pull the handle up. It won't lock if it hasn't been banged properly as the seals don't all pull tight and you then can't turn the key, which then means you have to bang it again to make sure it's in the right position for locking.

very funny smug

i think you should imprison her within her home and play techno loudly at her until she repents, changing her will making you her chief benefactor.

either that or electrify the gate.

she might think twice next time.
