So glad to see someone else who thinks using the communal milk for cereal is scruffy behaviour
I'm back to say I've remembered there's someone in our place who just DRINKS the communal milk, which is even scruffier.

WHEN did kids start this hysteria when getting presents of screaming or sobbing like youve just told them their whole family died...

Usually over an iphone or ps5... wtf is wrong with them? I dont even buy any kind of sincerity in it. Its just some weird bullshit theyve seen on youtube

When people say ‘omg I was literally screaming at the tv’ or ‘I just almost choked on my coffee’

no you fucking didn’t though why you lying

And also when a post goes viral on social media and the posters friends are like ‘oh wow you’re famous I can’t believe it’ when nobody will even remember their name or the post after a day or two.

My bf doesn’t seem to understand that we have a bin in the house! Maybe he thinks there’s a fairy. I came to bed before him last night but I’ve just gone downstairs and judging by the trail of chocolate wrappers, empty cans and crisp packets he has left on every surface possible I could probably retrace his every step after I came to bed. What’s so hard about tidying up your own mess before coming to bed!!

When people take their Christmas decorations down on Boxing Day. It's still Christmas, enjoy it a bit longer!

Even more annoying is when they then post a picture of their empty living room on Facebook to show they've taken it all down.

“Gentle reminder”

UGH. So patronising and weak. Just write “Reminder.” Most people can deal with a reminder without it needing to be softened. It’s usually something completely lame and neutral anyway. “Gentle reminder: the carpark will be closed from 5pm.”

People who go the gym just to idle on the (usually leg) machines. They’re not seats to have full on convos for 15 mins. Old men are the worst culprits. Gonna be full of hogs now the new year is here. Stop loitering the rest of us want to workout and get on with our day.

People on Tattle requesting others not write certain things as it's triggering. It's a fucking annoymous gossip page, if things trigger you that much , turn your computer off and do something more constructive with your day irl where it's much easier to avoid triggering situations.

Extended family members who feel they can offer advice on a sensitive family matter when they know eff all about it, and have nothing to do with us aside from 2 phone calls per year.
Yeah we were just waiting for your words of wisdom and judgement Dickheads,.

I can't stand the sight of it after boxing day I'd rather put my tree up a bit earlier in December, enjoy the build up, but as soon as it's done, i don't want to see anything Christmassy anymore. Move over tree, It's time for new year, new me

Absolutely.

Outside of a very specific set of circumstances, triggering is meaningless and overused.

At work once, a student asked if I could switch the video display off because it was a fish tank and she was “triggered” by fish. This happened around the same time as my younger brother who was in an airstrike in Afghanistan and almost losing an arm, suffering PTSD and the possibility of actually being triggered by stuff like loud noises. Not a bloody video of a tropical fish tank just because you don’t like fish.

I’m staying at my boyfriend’s place and one of his neighbour’s came and knocked at the door at 8am (Boxing Day!) asking if he had taken a parcel in for her last week. I was fuming

Why did he answer
He was still in bed, I was up as I was getting a drink and the door went. I looked through the peep hole and went to tell him there’s a random woman at the door and he goes “well answer it then, but I’m in bed and I’m not getting up”

who the fuck knocks on someone’s door for a parcel that apparently got delivered a week ago At 8am on Boxing Day?!

(He didn’t even have the parcel, must have been delivered to another neighbour

This. When I see it typed ten times in succession on say, a Twitter thread, it just bloody kills the joke. Everyone's "screaming", "dying" or are "dead!"

My husband rarely made the bed when he got out of it in the morning. Im generally out of bed first. It's a duvet so making the bed consists of straightening it up.

I told him the pixies must make this bed up.

Then I sing "the pixies they have been" repeatedly whilst I straighten the bed and this has had a bit of success because 50% of the time now he will straighten the bed ...
as opposed to 1 in every 10 times before
