Entitled men/women. Have you any corkers? I have plenty of examples :-)))

Pretty lighthearted thread to laugh at some of the crap we have to put up with from the master race. It's nice to know I'm not alone!

H used to complain if I served up his dinner too hot, as in 'and now I've burnt my mouth'. he wouldn't dare say this now, he'd be wearing it

Or 'I was trying to have a shower but it was cold, didn't you hear me calling (no, I was outside) ...why is it cold....the washing machine and dishwasher are going, ....but I was going to have a shower.... I'll try to brush up on my mind reading skills and in the meantime check your fecking self

I could go on of course, but give me your absurdity to laugh at please

Well I never pictish!!!! and you had the temerity (no.. the down right audacity) to have a nibble at me!!!!

I've hosted foreign students for years so I have a million stories about breathtaking entitled behaviour. Including a 45yo Spanish woman who told me to get out of (my) the kitchen so she could prepare food in peace; the endless male students who seriously thought I'd be up for some extra-curricular I would've been sometimes in a parallel universe but that's not the point ; the students who refused to eat my 'disgusting English food' (I am actually a very good cook eiissm) and their mothers sent them boxes of food across the sea from their home country (which my friend's dalmation actually gobbled up once and I had to solemnly break the news); the 18yo whose mother washed his hair, who went white when I handed him his fresh bedding for him to change the sheets - Student: [spluttering] "but i...I...have a bad back!" - Me: "ah well, a few more days won't hurt, I'll leave it here for when you're better"

Ha me too springy. Though I only have under 21s and only girls. The over 50s were a NIGHTMARE give me a stroppy teen any day. To be fair ours not entitled particularly mostly Italian so relatively meek and quite sweet.

My 8 year old on the other hand.... dropped her at school got home to realise she had left her homework. As we live near the school I popped back in to take it to her which I thought was very nice of me. In the playground surrounded by little pals "oh thanks mummy could you go back and get my pendant necklace, it would look good with my costume for the assembly" errr no bog off!

That reminds me of a friend who had a German exchange student in about March/April. The student, a girl, found it a bit cold so instead of asking for the heating to be turned up would sit there hugging herself, fake shivvering and going "Brrrrrrrrrrr!" repeatedly. Like some kind of cartoon in the arctic.

out for a meal with a big group - 15 people. We all agreed to put in £20 each for the bill. So not particularly expensive. It was collected. £20 short. The person collecting asked several times if everyone had put in? Everyone said yes. Luckily he knew very well who hadn't paid - it was a couple who decided that £20 should do for the two of them instead of each and called them on it. It didn't go down well with the group, silly pair. It wasn't a misunderstanding as the meals themselves were a £10 set menu, and we'd all been having drinks as well, including them.

This is partly due to me being too soft and mainly me wanting to vent....

Friends of DP dropped in unannounced and uninvited on a Saturday Evening. We had just moved into a new house that week so were up to our eyeballs in stuff that needed to be sorted. They came expecting dinner to be cooked for them, which I stupidly did. Put up with them complaining that the meat shouldn't be defrosted in the microwave because it would spoil the meat. Had them use the whole packet of rice I'd bought the day before which would have done us three days. I also wasn't allowed to use pork, sea salt, chocolate, and a list of other things because they were allergic to them. Had to listen to them complain that we weren't playing by the right rules for Monopoly. Then had them dump their daughter for a sleep over that night.

I've an autoimmune disease which means that I'm in pain most days (but won't give in or see myself as a victim) so spent Sunday in tears due to pain. The best part is they turned up empty handed to my home but when they previously 'invited' us to their house for a meal we were often given a list of things to bring including beer, or 'things for the kids to eat' which went into the freezer and were never eaten or returned.

I'm too polite but my other dear friend is right. With people like this I NEED TO START BEING RUDE because otherwise they just wont get the message. Just ARGH. Never again.

Bastards!

Oh fiddle that's awful. But I do think you and DP need to practise saying "No, it's not convenient for us right now or ever again you entitled twats " as I'm sure you'll have them descending on you again in future

Have just been reminded of this by someone in aibu, but this thread seems to be a very good place to share enjoy a lol moment about it, I was in danger of getting a bit ranty about it when I got to thinking about all the years worth, but this is still my favorite head shaker

I did not get a 40th birthday present from ex, on the day I gave him £20 from my birthday money from my mum to him to go and buy me a present and he came back (still angry because he was skint) with three herb plants from the local garden centre marked '3 for £10'

Dd teaches at a very naice middle class school. One kid, bone idle and arrogant, got very low grade in his mock AS2, so her projected grade for him was not great. His parents kicked up a stink at parents evening, demanding that she give him a projected A grade so that he could get accepted for a good uni. No dice. She's now moved to a school which is not full of entitled brats and their pushy parents.

He instructed me about the way to put toilet roll on the toliet roll holder...with the paper facing one way not the other. I pointed out that he could put it on whatever way he liked but that he preferred to never put it on at all. And this was just the start...
