    You are now using my backscratcher to serve your pasta. I have one of those plastic spaghetti spoons (you know, with those claws and with holes in the middle) and it recently got broken and I've been using it as a backscratcher. So it's usually somewhere in the region of the couch.

    YES I CLEAN IT DAILY. So some annoying friends of my boyfriend came over for dinner. He thinks they're ok, but he's not subtle, so doesn't pick up on social clues. The girl is more annoying than the guy, but they're both condescending as

    f So she walks in, sees my fC backscratcher and squeals (I really don't have another word for it): "Ooooooh, someone got distracted doing the dishes, better put this in its proper place".

    Dear reader, I was planning to give them spaghetti and meatballs. what happened next was satisfying as f. We sit down, and bc I haven't replaced my backscratcher yet, I was serving spaghetti with a large fork.

    the girl sighs dramatically, gets up and takes my backscratcher from the drawer and starts serving everybody spaghetti. I refuse and use a fork, also for my boyfriend. She keeps sighing and finally asks: "why are you so adamant on doing things your way, even to the point that you can't accept me serving spaghetti the NORMAL way".
  • 07
    keeping dumb, I ask to explain what the normal way to serve pasta is. She sighs, rolls her eyes and waves my backscratcher in front of my eyes and says: "like, you don't know how to use this?"

    I said: "I use that as a backscratcher bc it's broken, that's why it was besides the couch". She started laughing it off until my husband say: " eh, yes that IS what she uses it for". Be passive-aggressive in my house at your own risk.

    AdIcy2800 OP. 5 hr. ago Oops, no he's my boyfriend, the other couple's married, my bad I usually call him my husband bc in my country it's strange to not be married after 23 years together. Usually when people hear I have a boyfriend (I'm in my forties) they assume it's casual and I don't like to have to explain why we're not married.

    PlayfulMousse 7830. 3 hr. ago Why do you let people that rinto your home? It's your safe and sacred space. Tell your partner in detail why they sand ban them. If he's ☐ The may need some help understanding why they are heads but should support your need for a safe and respectful home. Life is short, take out the trash permanently.
