Following on from the other thread

What drives you mad about them

Apart from seeing them driving past in a car with their finger up their nose

Or seeing them with their hands in their pants - yuk

What drives you mad ?

We tell them something and days after they swear they have no idea what we are on about and say we did not tell them when we know we did

Don't get me started on this

Why is their job always worse than anyone else

Why can they never say sorry when they are WRONG.

Why can they be joking but you aren't!!!!!!

Why do they fall asleep on the settee but won't go to bed coz they are tired.

And why do they expect thanks for doing YOUR job once when you do it every day with NO thanks

The list is endless sorry, can you tell Daz is home.

The way he has to rearrange the dishwasher before it goes on.

The way when the shopping has come he has to break all the fromage frais and yogurts apart. Then they get mixed in with the ones left from last week.

The way he will cut across the whole top of a bag of frozen peas or sweetcorn not just snip the corner off. So when i pull the bag out by the bottom the entire contents fall out into the freezer.

I hate the fact that his whole world can come to an end because there are 2 bottles of tomato sauce open in the cuboard at the same time.

I hate hearing " we dont have shares in the electricity company you know" "yes but its not a five minute job" " and Wendy theres another thing you have not thought about"

I hate the fact that he is still breathing :laughing:

things that annoy me about men (better leave out the rude ones eh?)

They think they are better drivers.
They leave wet towels everywhere.
They put their clothes for washing inside out.
No matter how many times you show them they still cant work the washing machine.
They are always adjusting their bits n bobs.
They fart when they pee in the morning sorry tmi lol
They are obsessed with boobs!
They think they are always right!!!
They cant hang out washing the right way.
They will polish the car all day but not the furniture!

I think we have nearly written a book about this lol:D

2- They always have to be right
3- They use the phone while driving
4- They think they have right of way on the roads
5- They never clean up after themselves and then whinge about the mess
6- They work 'harder' than you
7- Man flu (do i need to say more)
8- Don't understand sale shopping
9- When they get drunk they are so stupid
10- They have to go out after work to 'poke the fire' (like we don't work).

Probably many more but it'll sound like i hate men

oooohh yessssss I hate that one:angry: and I get it all the time...

I done this for you...... I done that for you...... cuz I am the only one who:
uses the bathroom
eats the food
makes a mess
the children are only mine
sleeps in the bed

oooh the list could go on...., the 'for you' bit really winds me up (the kids have started doing it now... I have ironed my school uniform for you':angry:

Asking him to do a job, its really important and he doesn't do it.
Telling him something is wrong with the car/appliance etc etc only to be told I don't have a clue what i am talking about...... his mate will say: 'sounds/looks like something is wrong with the car' and he will be in total agreement and get the job sorted. This really peeps me off. If I said black was black he would agrue the fact that it was really white and I don't know what I am on about, but if his mate says black is black then well his mate is the font of all knowledge.

The way his day/life is so much worse than anyone elses

My hubs splits the fromage frais pots as well Wendy.

IF he goes shopping - he can spend as much as he likes - there is only one lot of ingredients there for one meal for the week, its all branded YET if I go shopping (and its mainly me anyway) I have a budget:angry:

The way he doesn't:rolleyes: snore or hog the best apparently.

Think I had best stop now:D

Oooh I was so tempted to not reply to this but my number one annoyance is:
"I work a 12 hr day" so cant help rinse just his own plate, help with baby, or see to her while i do some tidying up and not to mention I dont have a start or end to my day.
The fact that he suffers from Hayfever but HE wants a BIG garden but its me that ends up mowing the lawn. Initially with a hand mower and said we dont need a proper mower as what does it matter. But when i end up buying it anyway and cut the grass and it looks lovely then he is the first out to enjoy it but still wont load the grass to the tip, I dont drive so it will stay there until I blow a gasket:angry:

One downstairs, one in the family bathroom and one en-suite. But everyday he uses all three. He never never ever ever cleans the bathroom but in one night he would use all of them and I need to daily clean all three and DD is still in nappy and its just the two of us.

apparently because I am at home all day - I have more time, or my time isn't as precious as his (he is working don't you know:rolleyes: ) i can just pop to town/to the bank/drop something off/go here..there etc.
yet if I ask him to do something it is met with huffs, puffs, blustering... I AM working:angry:

Why can't he replace the loo roll after he has used the last sheet?
Why can't he shut the underware draw after he has got his pants out in the mornings?
Why can't he clean the skid marks off the loo after he has been?
Why does he have to parade around the bedroom with his hands jammed down the back of his pants, scratching his bum?

Why did I ever find him attractive????? :D :D :D

Why can't they empty their pockets before putting trousers in the wash bin?

Also belts why cant he take them out of the loops before washing!

I asked my hubby last night to put a load of darks on so I could have Jaydens shirt ready for tomorrow. This morning I go to empty the machine and he's only washed his pair of Jeans with the belt on! And washed his socks all balled up!!!! My god did i have a go at him this morning then i had to sit in a car with him for half an hour in silence until i'd calmed down!!

Why can they never empty the bathroom bin? Oh yes its because he doesnt use toilet roll or toothpaste or anything so its not 'his job'

And why do they expect thanks for doing YOUR job once when you do it every day with NO thanks

Mmmmhmmm.

Also, falling asleep on the sofa and snoring through the film I want to watch, but when I say "go to bed" Im "nagging"

Actually, just the word "nagging" in general. If I have to ask twice then Im "nagging". I tell him that if I didnt have to ask twice then I woldnt be nagging in the first place!!

Leaving the kitchen a bombsite is a biggie. And also he can never find anything in the kitchen, even though we have lived here for five/six years now. And he makes such a song and dance when he actually cooks a meal!! Nevermind that I cook every day.

Oh oh oh - what about this....when you are being tectchy cos they are winding you up, this phrase ... "are you on your period" makes me usually commit some sort of domestic violence. Period or no period!!!

Oooooh, so so many! Not enough time!!!

On a more serious note...reading through these posts, it really makes me wonder. It seems we have made great feminist leaps on the outside but once you get inside the home, the roles are still as static as they were in the 50's. What ya reck?

Im the only one who washes the bath and sink
I work the washing machine-if he does it he puts temp up to 40
I do the dishes-when jas does them i just have do re do them lol
I got moaned at other day cos he had no golf clothes ironed
Get moaned if nothing is taken out freezer night before-am i the only one that eats!
I have to ring around the gas and electric people

He is good though and does do some stuff when he's not working, but he does annoy me when i want to spend some money and says he doesnt go out spending all time and all hes got is golf-he pays almost £1000 a yr for that and just brought new clubs for £600

Sx

Nagging - horrid word and it doesn't exist - I have redefined it... its actually corrective treatment - CT (often repetitive - RCT).

I conclude that if they (men) listened in the first place and acted upon said instruction/request/need/pondering, then there would be no need to 'nag' - or repetitive corrective treatment (RCT). Therefore its a mans fault that RCT occurs due to the synapses in the brain not developing or functioning correctly and computing and processing the required information adequately to avoid RCT.
If men were computers we would have had them serviced and then discarded due to the lack of functioning and procssing capabilities and the ability to learn from previous cock-ups

Brian has now - instead of responding to CT, now just accepts that he is wrong!!!!! lol I actually think he likes teh sound of my voice and enjoys the RCT!:D
