Annoying things women do..

Well amongst many other of my glaring faults is criticising what he buys at the supermarket. I really should prefer cheese cake to toilet paper.
I spread out- I work from home and sometimes have paper work to do, I try to do some between clients so I put it on the dining table. All over, and leave it there! Sometimes for days!
I just push it aside when we eat. What’s the problem?
It would be lovely if I had time to so it all at once but life gets in the way.?
I make him write about 6 Christmas cards once a year.
I mumble too.
I don’t want to watch shed and buried, flog it, last of the summer wine(again) and on and on and on.
I want to watch strictly.
I want to invite friends round for supper- this spoils his viewing!
I think I’m not going to please Grandad ?

DH always said that I have a butterfly mind.....

Ah, a mumbler.
There's a lot about, the more deaf older I get.

I "mumble". It's nothing to do with the fact that he's completely deaf on one side; oh no. It's because I turn my face away when I'm speaking and I mumble.

Women go to public toilets in pairs.

On a practical sense I would say comandere the mirrors in public washrooms when some of us are quite happy with a quick glance & a hand wash as long as we aren’t looking like Quasimodo ?

Work out the best way to hurt people that don’t deserve the lashing. As the saying goes, hurt people hurt people & never a truer word.

Apparently I start talking about something half way through what I was thinking - he reckons he has no idea what I'm thinking. After 48 years I would have thought he'd know by now grin

I am perfect, there is no one to tell me I am not

I've just asked my DH and he says: 1) When he has been all round the supermarket only to find me still looking at things on the first aisle 2) when he picks out fruit or veg and I put it back and find a "better one" 3) when I'm supposed to be following him, he turns round and I've made a detour to look at something down another aisle and vanished 4) When I can't decide what article to buy and I um and ah for ages before walking off with nothing That's enough for now, he's on too much of a roll, I'm starting to look like a complete plonker!

Well DH has nice thermal socks and I have cold feet..

Speaking of cold feet DH never complains when I warm my feet in him in bed.

Sometimes I demolish eat the last chocolate digestive.

Would I be annoying if I said that 'I am the better map reader?'

Annoying? Moi?
Apart from always being right, I have no foibles at all grin

Grannybags Thu 20-Dec-18 21:18:45

Moan that their partner never does any housework and then complain that they've done it "wrong" when they do!

Scribbles Thu 20-Dec-18 21:16:34

My OH could probably produce a list of the annoying things that I do but I have no idea what those might be because he's generally much too kind to tell me (plus he doesn't fancy a smack in the gob!).

I don't do any of the things on MissA's list, though

Of course. Its the age of equality..

lemongrove Thu 20-Dec-18 20:49:31

Is this for Grandads benefit MissA ? grin

MissAdventure Thu 20-Dec-18 20:48:23

Buy too many cushions.
Ask "do I look fat in this?" (When there is never going to be a right answer)
Order their meal with a salad because they're 'on a diet' and then steal the chips from their partners plate.

Over to you.. tchsmile
