Men

[Skweeky]

Bf's brother came up to do some stuff around the house.

Been telling us for days that he had a nice surprise planned for us on Wednesday.

As it was our day off today, we came downstaris and saw that he was planning to put laminate on all the flooring downstairs.

We pointed out that we already discussed that we were going to rent a sander because we have original wooden floorboards in the house and they look great.

As he already bought all the laminate and hired the guy to put it in we decided laminate would be ok as well so we disappeared out of the house so they could put the stuff down.

Came back a few hours later with half the carpet in the livingroom ripped up and about 6 laminate floorboards on the floor.

Bf's brother and the guy who was installing the laminate then explained they had to wait to put in the actual laminate till next Tuesday as the stuff hadn't adjusted the temperature of the house yet.

So...

now my living room is a fucking tip and I still don't have a decent floor in my house :@

[Mr. Mulder]

but the kitchens ok? you can still cook?

[Skweeky]

Actually

I was about to cook when I noticed he put polish on the fucking hob. so I had to wait for an hour before I could do any thing :@


I guess I should be thankful. :(

I got someone who's doing up my house and cleaning it at the same time.

But I kinda like it the way it is

Oh mate! So you've ended up with extreme chaos over something you don't really want? Sell the laminate, hire a sander with the money, and make the bro do all the work if he wants to be helpful. It's your house at the end of the day.

I feel for you though. Chaos like that is really unsettling. :unsure:

[Skweeky]

I have a feeling he might start on the coving next :cry:

I've decided I'm going to not give a fuck about the house until next week.

However, if this is not fixed by next Thursday there's going to be trouble

yesterday he chucked out my plant because supposedly it stinked of cat piss.

I fished it out of the bin and it smelt like any big plant does. Like peet and water.

[Mr. Mulder]

he probably felt it was distracting you from your cooking

[100%]

then why is it that the "men" are always doing the work "woman"?

although he could have read the instructions before hand, and if i recall it takes 2 weeks for the laminate to adjust.

[Barbarossa]

houseplants are something wimmen seem to like, but blokes just think is a waste of time and hassle to water. :dabs:

I've killed so many houseplants because I'm fed up of watering them, it's unreal. :smilie4:

[thewizeard]

but the kitchens ok? you can still cook?

More important..the bedroom is ok ..toch Sonja? :) Drop into FST room on Soulseek, Funky is hanging out there at the moment

[JPaul]

Haven't you worked out that he's selling the house yet.

[manker]

Haven't you worked out that he's selling the house yet.

@re Topic Name someone...erm...like this more or less explains things...:lol:

[Gripper]

I wonder if Skweeky comes as part of the fixtures and fittings.

[JPaul]

<avoids doing joke involving the words "fixtures" and "comes".>

[Skweeky]

If he was selling the bloody house I wouldn't even mind

He does it for us... as a surprise :(

What am I supposed to do?

[Proper Bo]

Stop being an ungrateful twunt?

[JPaul]

Nowt, the man's obviously an idiot.

It would be like talking to a piece of boiled ham.

[Gripper]

Smile politely the lil fecker will be gone soon.

[JPaul]

Then rip the laminate up and sell it.

He will never remember putting it there.

[RainRoofer]

lol, what a KING

[CrabGirl]

Sit him down and tell him that you're greatful and everything but that you're a neurotic and fussy woman (even though it's probably not true) and really need things to be done in a certain way, and that if he really wants to help you then the two of you do stuff to the house together. Thus blaming it all on female neuroseez.

Or you could just be straight with him. He'll probably be mortified.

Or you could just kick the fecker in the nads and tell him to stop interfering.

Or you could show him this thread.

[JPaul]

This thread, that's the ticket.

My posts in particliar.

[Skweeky]

You know what the scary thing is?

He's a geologist

They let him tinker with oil rigs and chemicals :fear:

[JPaul]

I don't think they actually tinker, they tell other chaps where to do the tinkering.

Is his name Craig btw.

[CrabGirl]

Anyone can hit rocks with metal things.

Geologists are brutes.

[JPaul]

Geologists are brutes.

As are Dominatrii.

[Skweeky]

No, his name is Tony

I'll keep you posted about the wonderful adventures in casa Skweeky

I have another two weeks to enjoy his company :lol:

[CrabGirl]

Offer to cut his hair as a favour and then give him a hair-dont.

[Gripper]

:glag: washed the geor........ :glag:

[Skweeky]

:(

I couldn't find my clothes that I took with me on my trip and I was pretty sure I put in the washing machine.
They'd been gone for about two days

This morning I found them in a binbag under my bed....

Half wet...

Have you ever smelt clothes that are wet and have been in a bin bag for the past two days?

[Proper Bo]

Yes.

[JPaul]

Yes, I have teenage sons.

[Skweeky]

He wrecked the charger for my palm pilot thingy :(

I'm staying at a friends tonight, can't take this anymore

[100%]

materialism over spirituality?

[JPaul]

I keep telling you, the man's an idiot.

Fortunately a universal charger won't be that expensive.

[Skweeky]

I know he's an idiot

And if he weren't my future brother in law I'd kick him out.

Unfortunately, he always means well

Still doing my fucking nut in though

[MagicNakor]

Men suck.

:shuriken:

[JPaul]

Men suck.

:shuriken:

Gaylord

[MagicNakor]

Damn straight.

:shuriken:

[Skweeky]

I'm scared :fear:

He's going to clean out the spare room (which is full of his junk)

:fear:

[Gripper]

Bet it all ends up in your room,in the front room and anywhere else where it would inconvenience you.

[Skweeky]

He's going to hang up shelves as well :cry:

He'll probably end up knocking out a wall :lol:

[Barbarossa]

There's a rude wanking joke there but I can't think of it. :dabs:

[clocker]

For which many of us are grateful.
