    I'm not a spontaneous person. You want us to meet, let me know at least 48h in advance. If your plans involve food (especially buffet style dinners), I'm gonna need you to send me a formal invitation in written form no less than a week in advance. List the names of everyone else invited and give me a rough timeline so I'll know how long I'm gonna have to pretend to be a normal person for.

    I am kinda the same way. This is especially true if I have guests coming to my home.

    Unless we say we want to see your wiener we do in fact not want to see your wiener. TMI? Seriously though. 😒

    If I nod and agree, it means I have dismissed your logic as unsound and see no need to argue further, and I'm just going to do whatever I was going to do anyway.

    I really wish someone would explain this to my mil so her uneducated *kitten* would stop giving me medical advice

    I could not agree more with this.

    Never tell your boss No for something work related. If they ask you to do something, you better have a really *kitten* good reason to refuse

    Depends on the job. It's literally my job to keep my boss in check, so I have to frequently tell him off about what he, I, or anyone in the workplace can and cannot do, and I'm always armed with a list of things I tell him to do. Sure, my refusing to do things is usually related to things like "no, we/you/I won't do that, that won't fly with the tax administration/auditor/other authority, it's illegal, against workplace policies, it won't make any sense because X" etc. My boss is the CEO of this company. On the other hand, I suppose all those reasons are really *kitten* good reasons to refuse. The difference is, I don't just refuse, I tell him it shouldn't be done by anyone.

    Also, never ask a woman if it's her TOM, especially in the context of "why are you so angry, are you on your period or something". She may or may not have her period, but the thing she's angry about is probably worth the anger anyway and TOM just means she doesn't bother with keeping her mouth shut about it.
