BFTD Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 16 hours ago, Swarley said: Not partner, but daughter (I'm not from Fife). Found out yesterday that she's been cooking noodles in the microwave using a saucepan. And has been doing this for weeks. How she's not burned the house down I do not know. Made her watch a video of what happens when you microwave metal and she won't be doing it again. Does she then empty the noodles into a bowl to eat? If so, why would she not just... You know what, never mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that's precisely what she does. Empties the noodles into the saucepan, adds water, puts in microwave, then empties noodles into bowl to eat. The saucepan is small but it can't turn round in the microwave due to the handle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one of those "I have failed as a parent" moments. It's OK, we all have them. Blaming your own parents helps, I find. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davy the Dug Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 My partner and her family are absolutely mental in terms of asking stupid questions. She asks questions that she obviously knows I have no idea what the answer is, such as “who was that that came in the front door there?”, when I am sat in the same room as her, at the opposite end of the house to where the front door is. She insists that her Dad comes over every Sunday for his dinner, and he just talks through absolutely everything that we are watching on telly, asking at least five times each night who such and such is and what they have been in before. It is genuinely destroying my soul and my happiness that that I have every Sunday evening ruined when all I want to do is sit in my pants watching shite telly, but instead we’re stuck watching Antiques Roadshow because he likes it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have contacts within the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation, you could perhaps secure a small amount of Novichok which, if added to the f-i-l's dinner, would result in your Sunday evenings becoming more enjoyable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crawford Bridge Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 Why do we have 12 pillows on the bed? We only use 2 or 3 each. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philpy Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 Telling work colleagues that I'll give them a lift, without thinking to ask me first. I ended up dropping someone on Saturday, and they insisted they were quite happy to walk from the end of the road, but no, the wife pipes up "don't be daft, we'll drop you right at the door". I've told her that'll never happen again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came home foo and put a fray bentos pie in the oven, one of those old school AGA cookers. He didn't remove the lid a while later he is awoken by an explosion in the kitchen as the oven door is blown clean off...........his dog is at this point patiently waiting on chunks of steak dripping from the ceiling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
