Mean people. I'm friends with this couple who give each other really extravagant gifts, (ps4, games, clothes, runners, new phone for him. iPad jewellery ect for her) but they're real vulgar about it, dropping the price of everything into conversation. They asked me what my oh got me and then turned around and asked me how much he spent on me. This grinds my gears because my best Christmas present ever was from santa - a pair of roller blades, and as an adult it was a lot of my favourite things (fluffy socks, pjs, sweets, perfume, an IOU cuddle night) all together, it's not about how much it cost it's about the thought that went into it and knowing me well enough to know cow pjs and matching slippers would make me delighted, or knowing I loved Minnie mouse more than tinkerbell.

Not these though. Anyway - they got me a present so obviously I'm going to get them one back. I knew what I wanted to get them, I was going to spend about 30 each. And I knew they'd like it. So in passing I mentioned to him I would be getting their presents that weekend when I got a chance, and he turned around and told me "yours cost 25 so don't go too mad". I was raging he turned around and told me how much he spent on it so I was like feck that, and got him a money box that counts the coins as you put it in and I got her a pair of pjs. No thought whatsoever, I just didn't want to go over this "limit".

The day before xmas eve, he text me to tell me how disgusted he was with another friend of his, they'd spent 65 euro on this couple and their two kids and all they got was a box of chocolates.

Now I gave them their presents last night but neither of them said thanks so I'm pretty sure they think I'm a cheapskate now as well and that's bothering me like nobody's business, because I'm not a cheapskate at all.

Way to ruin present giving. I think I'm going to say it to them.

moneybox is the best thing to get them:pac::pac:

they sound awlful shower of cnuts cutting the back off othere not spending as much money as them (children are not cheap to buy for AFAIK)

i wouldn't bother getting them anything..they just wicked annoying and ungrateful

Sure isn't that the way this country has gone anyway starting at the top, Someone or something comes to the country and the first thing that is said is how much it is worth financially, even when the Queen of U.K came, she hadn't even left the Country and they were at it, no decency and it more than T.A's me.

Close this account and start a new one. It's the only logical thing to do.

Further update on the trivial annoyances caused by my father in law. Today he wore socks and sandals, outside, in the freezing sleet.

I don't know why it annoys me as much as it does!

People that fart everywhere, big loud smelly farts when your sitting there minding your own business, it's not even funny, its so crass and rude! puts me in an absolutely horrific humour!

TrustedApple · 26-12-2014 10:05PM

People who post on Facebook, instagram, Twitter or snap chat what they go for X mess. Then going to the effort of making sure you got the perfect photo by lining everything up perfect by size and hight.

I don't care what you got and i won't be showing off what i got as there is no need to it at all.

The rotten little short arse bollix of an old man who told me to **** off in work today when I refused him a refund. No receipt and no packaging mean it's not in resaleable condition and no you aren't "entitled" to anything you ignorant cnut

People who pull out in front of you at the last minute forcing you to brake and then snail it up the road.

fussyonion · 27-12-2014 12:22AM

People who KNOW they're gorgeous and put up selfies of themselves in their best poses and then acting all modest when they get tons of compliments.

There's a girl on my Facebook friends list who is really beautiful but she fcuking knows it and is ALWAYS posting selfies of herself...then acts all surprised when she gets compliments from men and women alike.

qo2cj1dsne8y4k · 27-12-2014 12:47AM

What's even worse when vulgar looking yokes think they're gorgeous and put up selfies in seductive poses.

going out...not drinking...

following morning....being just completely wreaked

qo2cj1dsne8y4k · 27-12-2014 11:41AM

Not going out drinking and getting woken up at seven minutes past three by your best friend drunk dialling you.
Then getting woken again at sometime after 4, by a drunken wreck of an OH.
Then being up at 6 to get ready for work.

Merry Christmas is right.

when parents discuss what I was like when I was a baby to family friends in my presence. to me it's sortve like the 'cats mother' scenario.

the most detestable! and then they tell exactly the same stories over and over, to people who've already heard them 30 times. YES I KNOW I WAS LITTLE AND DID THINGS BABIES DO.

The phrases "winning" or "breaking" the intrtnet

Seasonal TA - how my stomach seems to turn into a bottomless pit every Christmas. No matter how much food I stuff down there, I still feel hungry! It must be because there's just SO much food here. And there's always somebody passing some num nums around.

The only solution to this is counter-farting. Giving them a taste of their own medicine usually sorts them out.

Well done for getting up! It's awful, the amount of crap around. I wish I could just say no! Said yes to a turkey sandwich at 2 this morning. Why?!?!

When I post a picture to Instagram, and it automatically recommends filters. I don't need filters, I'm fabulous. And filters wreck photos, why filter them?
