No I'm not bashing men..my husband just ticked me off! I've told him several times before if you are going to pick up the phone make sure you get a detailed message if not let the phone ring and let whomever leave a message. Simple enough right? NO. This is how it goes HIM: Hey your friend left you a message. ME: Who? HIM: Umm not sure but she left a number for you to call and an extension. ME: Ok, so what's the number? HIM: I don’t know. ME: "CLICK"
Now why did he call me with no information? He has done this before. I've had doctors call me, family members! UGH MEN!! Lol

What does your mate do to tick you off?

    I hear you. Hubbub can get his dishes so close to the dishwasher but not quite in it. Really? You can put it on the counter but too much work to open the dishwasher. Once he even told me he would have but didn't have enough time. Yet he was on the couch watching tv when he said it. Sad, just sad.

    Mine will either leave his cereal bowls on his desk or just put them in the "rinse side" of the sink. And often they still have bits of oatmeal stuck to them. I dunno why he can't at least rinse them out. It literally takes five seconds to wash a bowl. Ugh.

    My wife and I each have our own cell phones with our own numbers. We don't have a phone in the house and haven't had one for over ten years. When someone wants to reach my wife, they call her. If they call me by mistake, I transfer the call to her cell (and she can decide whether to answer it).

    Problem solved!

    I go on strike from time to time. I no longer do his laundry, if he wants clean clothes he knows how to use the washer. If I don't want to cook, I simply don't. Everyone in my house is old enough to take care of themselves. They can pick up after themselves and if they don't it all gets thrown to the hallway so they have to step on or over it to clean it up. If they don't it can go in the trash. I refuse to be their maid. If they don't like it they can hit the road, except the boy, he is still a minor so he is at my mercy!

    men are trouble.

    but so are women.

    i think people should, in general, just avoid each other. it's better that way.

    I am told by my sweetie that she gets irritated when I...
    1) leave the shower door open
    2) leave dining room chairs out (not pushed back)
    3) launder (my) clothing without separating colors from whites
    4) leave skid marks in the bowl
    5) emit flatus anywhere in the home
    6) not shave
    7) wear my favorite clothing that doesn't match very well together
    8) cook without using a recipe
    9) shop without using a list
    10) buy clothes without trying them on
    11) buy the first thing that works without shopping
    12) call out another womans' name during orgasm


    ...WOMEN!

    when she doesnt answer the cell phone because its buried in that suitcase she calls a purse. I dont pay that money just so you cant hear it ring. Put it someplace where you can hear it!!!

    Haha, my girlfriend constantly gripes at me about leaving bottles of nail lacquer around. I keep complaining to her that her shoes are overflowing the shelf and that she needs fewer pairs of boots. I think the only thing we really agree on is that, since I cook and clean the kitchen, she can clean the bathroom and kill the spiders.

    It irritates me when I put out a clean hand towel in the kitchen and it dissapears when I need it. I find it and it is dirty! Gross dirty! He wipes his sticky dirty fingers on it. The purpose of the handtowel is to rinse your hands, then wipe them off on the towel; therefore the towel stays clean longer. It is not a napkin! Sometimes......;) And it never fails, the day I thoroughly clean the bathroom is the day he decides to shave his face and get his facial hair (which is a pain to clean up) all over the bathroom counter.... but, I still LOVE him ;) It could be worse right?

    my fiance will have a couple of days off and not do a damn thing around the house. granted, everyone deserves a day off to do absolutely nothing, but i cannot stand walking into a smelly house because the litter box needs to be scooped or the trash needs to be taken out.

    Let me count the ways........ :noway: Not my husband....

    My boss at work. This page isn't big enough to start listing... Besides my hands are too tired from typing all the bosses chicken scratchings. Let me rest up a bit. :yawn:
  • *sigh* where to start...

    a. He uses the last roll of tissue and doesn't say anything.

    b. He goes to the store with a list but still comes home missing something.

    c. His idea of funny is leaving the bathroom window (which is right in the shower) open, running outside to throw a cup of ice water on me before I get the hot water on.

    Seriously, though, the only real bickering we do is over the whole "seat up or seat down" thing.

    Why do women think they have the God-given right to see the seat down every time they enter a bathroom? Don't we have the God-given right to always see the seat up whenever we enter? The whole debate is ridiculous.

    In my house, we've solved the problem: we each have our own bathroom.
