I think I over-reacted

I am a regular poster but have changed my name for this as I am a little ashamed.
I have a very short fuse and the simplest of things will infuriate me. DH knows this and so far has managed to avoid the "trigger" words. Today however we were discussing christmas dinner and he called those sausages wrapped in bacon "pigs in blankets" he KNOWS that this phrase sends my temper through the roof, I instructed him to re-phrase the sentance and he said he was sick of walking on egg shells with me so to show him how it felt I started calling him gay and accusing him of being attracted to my brother which I know he hates, he said it was totally different . This incident blew over after he apologised for using the annoying phrase but later on he asked DD if she wanted to start "pony trekking" after christmas admittidly he didn't know that the word pony was a trigger so I explained to him that the word was not to be used and he apologised, 5 minutes later however he again reffered to the horses as "pony's" . I ended up breaking his mobile phone (threw it at him) and now he has stormed off. I know I was in the right over the christmas sausages but I think I may have over-reacted about the horse riding as he only learnt that he couldn't say what he said today. I'm not sure how to make it up to him and tbh I'm still angry about it all, should I just leave it and let it blow over or talk to him?

Ooops.........

cottonbud...you have either started an amusing thread, just for a laugh, or...you are A TOTAL CONTROL FREAK WITH SERIOUS AGER MANAGEMENT ISSUES!!!

It might be cottonbuds crimbo party,and they are going out on the lash after a full crimbo dinner pigs in blankets but if you don't like that the altenative is sweaty bollocks.I hear they are doing team building next week and it's pony trecking.

Blimey if you lived with my dp he'd be scratched to pieces.(its ok to say blimey isn't it?)

Have you thought about seeing a pyschologist? There is something seriously wrong with you, especially as you will be at your PC now laughing your head of at this oh so funny joke of yours.

Jeez give me a break.

someone was having a verrry boring day at work.quite inventive but not so believable.

loony

OMG, what a cracking thread!!

Too much madness to be real IMO. A real problem would be less inventive!

If this is real, Pigs (In Blankets) might fly

IF this was made up, what a sad person. If this is real, that's even sadder. Poor poor husband..

If it's real, i'm amazed he hasn't left her for a pony trekking, volvo driving mam, who's speciality in the kitchen is pigs in blankets.

Please tell me this is for real, it's brilliant!

Oh dear.. I have been accused of being gullible before.. but surely you lot are pretending to take this seriously, right??

LOL "Cottonbud"..

bloody brilliant mate

Well this thread made me giggle-sorry just checked that's a trigger word Love it sooooo much.

Feel sorry for the DH though, even if he is ficticious...I hope!

Liesel you have to read this.................you'll love it!

Am CRYING with laughter. And sobernow, your link made me roll on the floor. Fabulous!

Funny - cottonbud....you forgot "pigs" and "blanket" in your list of triggers

I know it's hilarious, I only wish it was real!!

Was this for real?

hahahahahahah

funny troll

You know it could be this woman who posted is genuinely suffering from a case of OCD and hasn't had it diagnosed or had any one mention to her how unreasonable her reacting to "trigger" words can be...

Many minor mental disorders can appear hilarious at the outset, but in reality they create a hell for those living with and around them...

Blimey, sweaty bollocks? Leave him
