If teenagers were on AIBU

[drinkswineoutofamug]

My mums a right biddy. Right I can roll my school skirt up 3 times to get it short. Maxine says it’s well good and Darren says I have nice legs. But OMG my biddy mum says she can see my breakfast when I bend over! I mean OMG! Really! Says I’m not going out the house like that. She’s so old . She’s 35 and knows nothing about being a teenager. She still used a tin can and string to talk to her old biddy mates. Aibu?

Oh yes, and they refuse to cover the cost of my most basic grooming requirements. Bloody father sniggers at my eyebrows and nearly pisses himself at his "witty" comments about Sharpies and caterpillars. Mother has flatly refused to fund acrylic nails as they are apparently "inappropriate for school" and calls balayage "streaks" and expects me to pay half of the £80 cost from my savings!

My mum is embarrassing- everyone says she is weird. Like I can't even cope walking through town with her as people just look at me with pity in their eyes. Thank god for asos otherwise I would never have new clothes. Although she is a stingy cow - why can't I have £60 t shirts?

Like yesterday she presented me with a present - I went to open it and it was a bag within a bag but she had put mashed up banana in one of the bags so to get to what I wanted I had to touch banana. She knows I hate banana. Like it's not my fault I lost said important item - it just fell out of my pocket. I could have just get a new one. I don't know why the people who found it sent it back. I will never ever forgive her for making me touch a banana. Thank god for my 3 yr old sister who helped me out with the worst bits..

AND I really don't see why she has a problem with my covering my bedroom floor with my stuff - like where else am I supposed to put it????

My mother insists that I get my school bag ready the night before, WTF is she on about - it doesn't matter if I roll out of bed 10 minutes before we have to leave and forget half of my books. She's an evil cow anyway because she makes me walk home from detention. If she got my bag ready cos that's what good mothers do then I wouldn't have the detention in the first place would I?

So pissed off with my dad. I mean I had to actually wait for him to open the car to take me to work this morning - I mean I know I got up late but ffs I’d been at a uni visit with him yesterday- he must know how knackered I am - I mean I slept the whole 3 hour journey home AND I’d been at my bfs the night before AND a students night on Thursday night. Just because he was clearing some garden stuff waiting for me to be ready is no f’ing excuse.

😂

OnTheSherry I work in a school office, so I am exposed to toxic levels of Lynx Africa, Beyoncé Midnight Heat and tidal waves of eyebrow gel on a daly basis.

The application of the above takes precedence over everything and is a perfectly legitimate reason to be a couple of hours late, of course. Any challenge to this is met by such sighings and eye rollings it would test the patience of St Monica herself.

Guhh Miiiiisssss

I am the unreasonable one, naturally.

My dad is so rude, he dropped my make up brushes when he was carrying my stuff in from the car in the dark. I remember all this important stuff when I really need to give reasons why the internet should not go off at bedtime. So what if I woke the whole family up at nearly midnight with the facetime ringtone ffs, twice! Inconsiderate family!

OMG my DM literally reckons, like, I shouldn't start each sentence with OMG, but, like, what does she know? OMG and then when she says, in what way is it like? OMG or literally as opposed to figeratively is just like, butters.

It's 10.42am on a Sunday and they have no idea how annoying it is to have to text them to tell them I'm awake and waiting for a cup of coffee.

I was hanging out with me mates right in town yesterday. An the old man was the other side of the road like. FFS he only went and smiled at me and waved and wanted me to go over. Like how embarrassing?. WIBU to pretend I didn’t see ‘im?

OMG! Am I AIBU? My Mum who is well old won't drop what she is doing right now (boring shit like working out what food she is going to get down Tesco's later) and drive me into the City so I can meet Mills and the gang! She like thinks I can get on the bus that takes an hour and half if I want to go. As if I am getting on a bus! It does not even have wifi! The 'rent's expect me to waste my life!

And then I say I want a new supadry hoodie just like Becca and Mill's have got and my Mum OMG you will NOT believe what that woman said. Says they cost £65! You already have one yeah, but that is sooooo old it is like six months old! Then she has the fucking cheek to point out that I could buy a much cheaper hoodie in primark! I mean seriously? WTAF! She thinks I should go round liking like a tramp wearing clothes with out name on it. Not a clue!
Now she is moaning on how I am.always on my phone and if I do not take my cups, bowls, plates and clean my room I will have tech taken of me! GRRR! My life is so miserable!

My mother is like, so unreasonable. This morning she made me stop playing the PS4 in my pants to remove all the empty food packets from my bedroom and PUT THEM IN THE BIN. I swear she just lives to make my life a LIVING HELL. Not only that but she asked if I could put my dirty clothes in the washing basket. It's really unfair.

Me mums cooking is shit. She keeps making meat and veg crap. I mean potato who eats potatoes what’s wrong with dominos every night? Or chips ? Me dead old gran makes meat and veg ffs when I get dragged there every fucking Sunday when I should be wiv me mates

Maisy

Good post

I was thinking along those lines

Aibu to expect my mum not to talk to my friends or me in front of my friends? OMG last time she used one of their nicknames and got it wrong. It was like sooooo embarrassing. But she can still give us a lift & £20 to go to Costa in town.

"WTF is wrong with my mum, she keeps using words like 'biddy' and she thinks boys my age are still called Darren! And she keep making references to comedy sketch shows from centuries ago as if I'm going to have any idea what she's talking about. God, my mum's so old"

OMG, so my selfish mother made me come home from college at the weekend by train, on my own, with two bags (she told me to bring one, but obviously I couldn't fit all the dirty washing she has to do for me because I spent my washing money on a new phone case in one bag, duh!).

Then, one the way back, she tried to make me get the bus all the way to the train station! With bags! WTAF??

She said she'd drive me to the tube station, but I was like, 'I can't take the tube - I have bags' FFS, she's soo stupid!

So I waited until she was busy and distracted getting ready for work and getting the others off to school, then worked really hard to make her life hell and wear her down so she eventually paid for a cab across London to the train station to get rid of me.

She gave me the bus fare to get to college from the train station at the other end, and I was like 'no, I need a taxi from the train station too, obviously, because I can't get the bus with bags, FFS, it's like she doesn't even listen to me! She kept going on about public transport being there for a reason and who do I think I am, or some shit, I wasn't listening. There was something about only getting a cab to the station at this end on the condition I get the bus to college, but I figured I'd get the train first, then wait at the station until she gets me a cab, as she can't just leave me there, can she?
Haha.

So I get to the train station near college as planned. It's technically walking distance with no bags, but obviously, I have bags, so I couldn't walk it, duh! Anyway, I text the bitch to tell her I need a taxi, and she's like 'no, I said you had to get the bus' - WTAF?

I explained to her that I couldn't get the bus as I spent the bus money on a caramel frappaccino at the station (obviously - did she want me to starve???). And she still said no! She was going on about 'everyone gets the bus' and how she'd spent money on a taxi across London, and I had to remind her that (1) it wasn't a taxi, it was an Uber, and they're cheap and (2) she works and I don't, so obviously she can afford it. She has no idea how hard it is not having any money to buy stuff whenever you want, FFS.

So I called grandma and told her I was stranded with loads of bags and I couldn't get hold of mum on the phone - and Grandma transferred the money to my account so I could get a taxi and I even had enough left over for a panini at the station - result! (I think mum was quite cross with Grandma for getting involved but that's not my fault, I can't help it if someone gives me money, can I?)

WIBU? Of course I wasn't - I had bags and anyway, don't they know who I am??!?

My mum still treats me like a child. I am an adult FFS. I am 16 years old and know as much about her as life - secretly I know that I actually know more than her. But still she insists on passing on her "wisdom" and thinking she knows better. How do I get her to see that I am an adult and know as much as her about life?

Diego I’m very old
But you have to love Kevin and Perry and yes Darren may be and old name . What I get for being ancient

I am so angry. I am going to the biggest party of the year, I put my favourite top in the washing basket, but it hasn't been washed. I put it in 3 days ago, so it should be washed and dried by now. My DM says she hasn't got round to doing the washing yet, and if I needed it urgently, I should have washed it myself. I am up in my bedroom stewing. My DM says I can just wear something else - BUT OF COURSE I CANT!!!! So now I am going to miss out on the biggest party of the year, become a social outcast as a result, and it is all my DMs fault.

I'm crying with laughter at I had bags

Anyone else remember Medieval AIBU, Tudor AIBU, Victorian AIBU etc?

This thread is brilliant

AIBU to think my mum shouldn't ask for a thankyou just because after she dragged me to Aldi this morning she offered to unpack shopping on her own and cook my lunch whilst I game online for an hour before she helps me revise for next weeks exams.

I mean she owes me for making me come to supermarket and choose my food for next week.

- I was that bags teenager. I was also a 'Mum, I'm wearing heels...obviously I'm not getting pubic transport' teen.
