steelmen Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 We are both working from home and she knows that headset = on a work call... doesn’t stop her coming into the room hollering what she wants or the internet isn’t fast enough. She gets the ‘f**k off’ look and then starts having a go for looking at her like that.Added to this she thinks her work is much more important than mine, so if internet is a bit slow I should log off. Never mind she has Netflix on the tv and the wee one is streaming YouTube on her ipad.. it’s my laptop causing the issues.If we really are here for 12 weeks... all 3 of us aren’t coming out this house alive! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 I can see this developing like something out The Shining! There's going to be a whole raft of films set in this lockdown period once we're through this whether it's scientist dramatically racing to find a cure or people going nuts as they're trapped in with their family. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I then assumed the new partner was going to be a younger, more glamourous upgrade on his wife but, having looked her up ..... I would just diplomatically say he has a different taste in women from me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philpy Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 We gutted the livingroom between us today, which included lifting all the cushions off the sofa and hoovering underneath them. She's just noticed I've put 2 of them back in the wrong corners (they are identical), and world war 3 has fucking started. She's told me "I don't fucking listen" and she's slammed the door shut and stomped upstairs. Saying that, it's Left me in peace to watch the big TV, so e every cloud... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do know that, had you put the cushions back the same way, she would still have had an issue as she wanted them swapped round so that the wear evenly? WW3 was coming anyway and the cushions were merely a handy excuse. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKMAN Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 I suggest we watch a tv programme or film, something that’s usually been recommended or has good reviews. She’ll come out with some pish excuse as to not wanting to watch it, usually muttering that it sounds shite. Without fail, a week or two later she’ll come in from work buzzing that Pamela, Louise or Joanna (insert any random name, as I don’t know or give a f**k about any of her colleagues), has suggested watching the exact programme and it now miraculously sounds really good. I fills me with absolute rage. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She finds out I've watched it then has a go at me because "she wanted to watch that". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of times I’ve to rewind it when something happens without dialogue is getting irritating.

Binge watched with the usual explain what is happening in front of her. I get the fear over her next brain fart for TV show watching which will undoubtedly lead to me explaining the basics 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
