    Well then they deserve to be told to fcuk off, not pandered to!

    Believe me, I've said **** off and cop on plenty of times, but it's his house I'm living in, I can't exactly kick him out. My mother puts her foot down over the big things but it's not worth fighting over everything. And that's why I'm planning on moving out as soon as I can. Sometimes you just can't win.


    So for a brighter note, a grumpy pengweng.

    Mod

    We are getting tired of the snide/bitchy remarks. They stop now.

    If you have issues with a poster, put them on ignore, do not respond to their posts. Lashing out at others makes the thread uncomfortable for everyone.

    If it continues, we will be forced to close the chat thread. Don't be the one who ruins it for everyone else.

    This is the FINAL warning. From here on in, posters will be infracted and/or taking breaks from the Ladies Lounge if they decide they don't want to play nice.

    Ignorance of this warning will not be accepted as an excuse.

    PM for further clarification.

    Pity putting someone on Ignore doesn't stop you seeing their posts when quoted. I'm getting tired of the repetitive/moany remarks, they spur on the bitchy remarks.

    I know I'll get infracted or banned for this but it'll totally be worth it and I fully accept it has to happen for responding to a mod's comment like this.

    PP, feel free to tell me to fcuk off if you don't want to answer, but what do you do during the day? If I remember right you're unemployed, are you actively doing something about that? Do you ever do something around the house to help your mother, out of your own initiative. Like cook dinner at night, or hoover, dust, clean the bathrooms or whatever? Or go get groceries or something? Without her having to ask you to do it.

    If you put yourself in your mums shoes, does she just see you sitting in the house on the internet during the day while you're not working? What I mean is, your mum could be being harsh on you to be nice to you?

    I know if I had no job and was still living at home my da would have me out doing something every day. Be that cutting the grass, painting the fence, or cleaning the house. If I was just sitting on the internet all day he would have given me a hard time, but that wasn't him being nasty or anything, it was just his way of ensuring I never got too comfortable sitting doing nothing all the time.

    Perhaps your mum is just trying to give you a little nudge? :) I obviously could be totally wrong! :)

    I do help around the house without being asked yes. I do watch the job sites and the papers and the IVNA site and the Irish Vet Journal.. It's not like I'm sitting around all day. I do knit and bake to pass the time. I hoover etc and do chores just to help out. I'm not completely useless.

    No one is saying you're completely useless, you need to stop taking everything said to you as a personal attack. Everyone is just trying to be helpful.

    PP it can get better. You might have to look at what you can do to change things yourself, but you'll get there. Your biggest obstacle is to get over the feeling of powerlessness and the feeling that there is nothing you can do. There is always something that can be done, but sometimes you're just too entrenched in family roles to see it. It might only be something small, but I'm sure any little victory now would make you feel a bit better.

    I honestly thought that most of ye were trying to help with a bit of tough love but some of the posts just look like trying to kick someone when they are down. We are not all strong people. People get stuck in a certain dynamic that can be very very difficult to get out of. It happens all the time in a myriad of different relationships.

    I know not everyone understands, but sometimes some people are just unreasonable. And it's not because of any conscious thought or maliciousness, they just have issues. Sometimes big issues, sometimes small issues, and there are times when no matter what anyone does they can't be sorted. I'm sure everyone has had friends like this, and generally you just cut them out of your life. When it's family it's different, even more so when you need to rely on them and even with their issues most people will still love them. You do the best you can in the situation but if there's nothing that can be done about you occasionally have to vent about it.

    Nobody said you were PP, you're far from it.

    Could you maybe pick up more LSPCA shifts to fill your time? Then if she bitches she'll look like a psycho for being at you for doing CHARITY work :P

    I'm whale-ish enough and it's bleedin' massive on me. Although the cat is holding it hostage so I don't get to use it much. Everything's a feckin' bed except her actual bed :rolleyes:

    Oh I blunted a brand new razor on my defuzz.

    The only thing I am dreading about living with my boyfriend in a month, the time and effort it takes to be a smooth lady. I love being lazy, fuzzy and warm :pac:

    Why does food on a stick always taste so good?

    Meat on stick...
    Chicken on stick...
    Cheese on stick...
