What grinds your gears.. DH and kiddo edition

So.. I was just cleaning up and decided to rant :rolleyes: and i'd love to hear what kind of silly things your loved ones do that drive you bananas so we can all see, we are not alone :lolsign:
I'll gladly start :

- DH saying: why you gonna rinse stuff if you're gonna put it in the dishwasher?? (really ? I need to explain this to a 29 year old grown man.. and on multiple occasions :confused:)
-When DH DOES decide to rinse stuff .. he doesn't throw away the food bits in the garbage first therefore I need to have a permanent supply of Drano bottles..
-DH walks in leaves shoes -in front- of the door so I can have the door bounce back in my face when i walk in. Then goes to change and leave his clothes either on the floor right NEXT to the hamper (:eek:) or wherever clothes is : for example I have clean clothes on the bed to put away.. well that's where his nasty work clothes will go :confused:
-DH: "sit down relax, i'll clean up dinner (:eek:)" .. come back later. Dishes are in the dishwasher, counters not wiped and pots and pans piled up in the sink and all kinds of junk on the counter.. gee... thanks babe !! I wake up to this and have to clean up BEFORE i can serve breakfast...
-DH.. only job: clean bathroom.. but he'll wait til it's totally NASTY to do it.. i get fed up.. do it.. DH gets mad :shrug: says i'll but it in his face later .. (well maybe you shoulda done it eh ;))

-DD .. repeating same stuff all day everyday .. every dinner: "hair behind your ears, sleeves up" ... every time !!!
"eat over you plate" every time !!
-DD waking up at night refusing to sleep.. "but i'm scared" "yes i know but you kinda have no choice but to sleep. wether you do the sizzling bacon dance and beg all night, you're not coming in my bed, you're not staying up and you're NOT having cartoons at 3am" every night ... !!!!
-DD: Come eat! "ya but I just wanna finish..." .. nooooo come EAT !

that's it for now lol !

ohh this is a good thread... we needed this!!

hubby constantly leaves his dishes on my side table.. or on the floor beside the couch (because there's no room left on the other side table) the floor dishes end up getting buried (kids blanket falls ontop of it or something else) i'm just waiting for the day i step on and break a plate!

Then all hell will break loose :P
DF does this too but with drink,cups and bottles. Like ,you obviously got up at one point.. why not throw it out ?

Lol at the sizzling bacon dance.
My family believes if you leave dishes on the counter the dishwasher "magically" sucks them in. No really that would be mom!!!!!!!!!

.

-yes bought a hamper for our bedroom -its in the closet-some things find their way in some not-ohh and he eats a granola bar and leaves the wrapper wherever-drives me nuts but I still love him after 30 years

I can't handle having to remind my BF to eat with his mouth closed all of the time.....he's 27.... XD

Oh boy. this thread was made for me. lol, my list is so extensive it would probably end up boring people. seriously though, my fiance drives me crazy. i love him dearly but he is basically a grown child who absolutely cannot take care of himself. i think it's because his mother babied him for so long (and continues to do so). arg. so frustrating. good thing he is so gosh darn good looking lmfao

I never rant but thats very similar to my life So I am writing here.

Since last 12 years or more I am telling DH to put his shoes in cupboard after coming from work or whenever He comes in from outside but not even 1 time He follows.Sighhh.....

ohh the shoes.. hubby doesn't put them far enough in so i always trip on them as i'm trying to round the corner to the door

My oldest has a no garbage policy at school, which means all her garbage comes home with her, which is fine except she can't remember to take her pizza crusts or left over subs out of her backpack, and I find them when the front hall starts to smell like rotting meat. Shes 10, I shouldn't have to remind her to take food out of her backpack.

That sounds normal for a 10-year-old. But..."no garbage policy?" So they don't have a garbage can at all?

Aaaa so many frustrations ...

My fiancé is also a grown kid who in no way can take care of himself
