Not reading the whole thread. (You haven't put in the effort needed to make a meaningful contribution)

Reading the whole thread. (Have you got nothing better to do with your life?)

Weight loss injections. There is a very very thin line of people who should be getting these. The wording of the post is everything.

Hubs
Mamma

Being a tenant and having had a snotty letter from your landlord about a stray piece of cotton s/he saw on the (ancient and disgusting anyway) carpet:

'I'm glad I'm not your landlord, how dare you treat my house as your home. In my properTIES I don't accept anything but perfection. What do you mean you're paying my mortgage. I worked hard all my life, you're poor so clearly you didn't'

Being over 60 and still struggling financially:

'You are obviously lying. Everyone over 60 bought a house in 1980 for 25p and got free education and definitely got a brilliant job afterwards. It's all your fault young people are poor'

Being on disability benefits and not able to work:

'I work 763 hours a week and get less money than you. You're obviously not even trying to get a job. It's disgusts me that people like you are allowed to have any kind of money'

claiming benefits of any sort whatever the reason

@FasilBalti I would LOVE to be able to have a bath at 3pm on a weekday!

I had a shower about an hour ago after a run (I am off work for the rest of this week) and used shower gel!

Anything involving trans people. It has got to the point where people shoehorn trans issues in even when it isn't relevant. I actually am less gender critical than I used to be, just because I think that it has gone beyond common sense and into obsession.

You're not your.

You're not allowed to have grammatical errors, even with dyslexia, educational inequality, or if English is a second language. 😁

dogs off leads
people on any kind of benefit

And humans should not be bought and sold!

Yes it's just trafficking at an early stage of life.

Being curious or annoyed by anything mad / unreasonable your neighbours are doing

mewkins · 29/01/2025 15:53

Small dogs (without fail yappy, aggressive and always attacking black labs)

People who put up with crap from their partner... and then

Single mothers (a drain on the system, making their kids' lives miserable, broken home etc)

People who work from home (must be shirking..need to get back to the office, even if there is no office)

Open plan houses

Heated airers

Those who do a degree in a non RG uni (waste of time)

Those who study the arts or humanities (waste of time)

Clompy shoes

Men

sixtyandfabulousofcourse · 29/01/2025 15:54

Men in general
men showing their willies
men who go to lap dancing clubs/stag nights/pubs
women who have 100+ men in a day especially ones who end up with an eyeful of things

Any dog larger than a spaniel (dangerous)
Any dog smaller than a spaniel (yappy little fuckers)

If you own a spaniel you are probably all right as long as you never let it off the lead and also let it run for at least eight hours a day.

You are allowed to make a mistake in the title, (they are the BEST threads with typos or words left out in the title) but not in the actual text of the first post. You will be pulled up on that.
You also must put it into proper paragraphs, or you are inconsiderate and no wonder you are having problems.

One more thing, don’t respond too much to your own thread or you are a loser. Too much green = desperado

MILS. Particularly Mils who buy stuff for the baby and keep it in their own house because they are overstepping, interfering cows and should remember they've had their turn. MIls who haven't bought anything for the baby for their own house are selfish and unreasonable cows for forcing their DIL to lug everything over every time they visit.

Washing your bras daily.

Not washing your bras daily.

That civilisation exists outside of the M25.

Kids in state schools.

Childless cat ladies.
