Another Lynn Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 I get that *plus*a certain somebody buying even more of something we already have plenty of, which said somebody would be fully aware of if that person were to look where we keep it, or to ask me. Which is why we run out of some things every week and have a six-year supply of others. We live in a city. There are stores a mile away. Don't fill a shelf with shampoo that can be bought anywhere (especially if your hair is a quarter-inch long)! This. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiana Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 People (especially teachers) who teach kids to use '=' to mean 'and my next step is'. I'm probably more frustrated than normal but I just spent quite some time yesterday unpacking this for yet another student. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catz Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 (edited) When I'm doing something very specific and obvious and someone walks in the room and says "what are you doing?" Empty boxes or containers in the refrigerator and cupboards. Edited April 20, 2017 by WoolySocks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie G Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 This thread needs to be restarted for Festivus. It's the perfect Airing of Grievances. And by December 23 I'll have new things that annoy me. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlett Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Last night: Shredded lettuce, cheese, sour cream, hot sauce all on the table set in front of his spot. Meat in pot on the stove, Oven running, keeping the shells warm. I had to run out for a few minutes and left it for dh. I come back and he's wandering around the kitchen looking for something to eat. "Aren't you going to eat the food I made?" "What are we having?" :banghead: :lol: This is my son. Exactly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertBlossom Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Along these lines, please come to the table when dinner *is* ready. Why do you start doing some super complicated, uninterruptible 45 min task when I tell you dinner will be ready in 10 minutes??? Or how my kids (and sometimes DH) try to be the last one to the table. I announce dinner is ready and everybody is waiting for everyone else to get up before they get up. So then I get a little more frustrated and I hear "but so-and-so isn't at the table yet." Ugh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertBlossom Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Oh, I swear, I hear "I can't turn this game off now, I'm not at a save point!" and steam comes from my ears. Yes, child, in fact you CAN turn off the game at any point. Let me demonstrate this by removing the plug from the wall. Or "wait until I die." Look at that, you just died when I closed the window/turned off the power. Mwa ha ha. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
