Very apt song given the situation

Teenage daughter being a teenager (emotional, self-centred, pushing the boundaries by being obnoxious to her parents etc).

Also, how much I'm letting it get to me - this is how it'll be for a while, I have to learn how to let it slide and not sweat the small stuff, but here I am in work still discombobulated after a relatively small altercation 3 hours ago.

The amount of effort it takes to not sh1tpost about Elf on the Shelf in the various threads dedicated to it...

Why anyone would bring that creepy stress-fest into their routine is beyond me.

It would almost be a cute idea if the puppet itself wasn't so sinister and creepy-looking

My sister was absolutely awful to our parents for about 3 years as a teenager, then changed back to the kind, loving girl she'd always been. My own daughter gave me sleepless nights for a few years too (though not as bad as my sister had been).

Both of them were brilliant before and after their teenage years, so take heart, teenage daughters DO get over this stage

My TA: It's 10 years since my daughter was a teenager and I feel old just thinking about it!

Going for dinner later so was checking out the menu. There's a "Dinner Set Menu" (A) and a "Christmas Dinner Set Menu" (B)...not sure will we be given the option to use the first one.
Both contain 90% of the same stuff. The Christmas one has a few extra seasonal choices.

Menu A is 49 a head
Menu B is 55 a head
Even though you could get the exact same 3 courses

Menu A has a rib eye with a 5 euro supplemental charge
Menu B has an identical rib eye with a 10 euro supplemental charge

Extra charges for Christmas!

Maybe I belong in the stingyness thread

Phone calls that go as follows - hi , how are you , are you busy ?
Can you bring me to the shop / vets / charity shop for a look around ?
People think I sit on my ass all day doing jack **** and can run and jump when it suits them to go to the above mentioned places ..

And breathe... better now

I've to bring the elderly uncle out visiting later. I don't want to leave my cosy house. I'm his carer, and it's my duty, and it will make him happy, and I like the people he's visiting, but still.......

Posts like these on AMA threads:

I don't have a question, I just want to say thank you for all the stuff you've done.

The things you've done are great and I want to thank you for them.

I am a grateful and thankful person, probably because I'm so conscientious and thoughtful, and I just wanted to stop by to say that I am thankful and grateful to you in particular.

You are a wonderful, brilliant human being, akin to a saint, and I think I might actually be in love with you. So, thanks.

I'm all for showing thanks where it's due, but call me a cynic... it's like a template, and there's always one. Every time. Like clockwork.

Edit: I mean, look at this madness. So many people who don't have a question...

Biting into a wrap and there is some surprise cucumber in it.

I'd love some, tbf. All the flavour (I'd hope) and none of the hangover.

As for that creepy elf, any of these would be a marked improvement.






Heck, even this handmade one us better!

Yes, yes yes. I seem to be surrounded by people who think cucumber tastes like water and doesn't smell. I have an absolutely sh1t sense of smell but I can smell and taste a vile cucumber a mile away. Nothing worse than biting into a sneaky left over one in a McDonald's wrap, there's always three of the bastards and the last one catches me out.
