@Auspice I'm game. Mine is fixed. It's a relatively safe plan.
(Which is exactly how I talk to my friends who are parents of teenage girls, being the parent of a teenage boy)
No bullshit, I said this to my friend Peggy last week:
"So that we can remain friends, could you please never let your 16 year old daughter know we have a 17 year old son? We need to keep that a closely guarded secret."

@Ghost It could be something totally different. Like, when I'm asleep, my cat sleeps in my chair. When I wake up, I go sit in my chair to all the kitty side-eye glare she can lazily muster.
So, technically speaking, your cat could actually be all like, "WHY THE HELL ARE YOU HERE I PLANNED TO LICK MYSELF TO MAURY TODAY YOU JERK AND I'M TOO SELF-CONSCIOUS FOR THAT SHIT WHEN YOU'RE HOME WHEN ARE YOU LEAVING?!"

@surreality said in RL Anger:
WHY THE HELL ARE YOU HERE I PLANNED TO LICK MYSELF TO MAURY TODAY
Answer?
BECAUSE I AM WHERE I PLAN TO LICK MYSELF TO MAURY TODAY.

I didn't get nearly enough sleep last night, and I have a quarterly (actually, like it's been half a year?) review today. I am dreading it, because I haven't been doing all that great in the last month at my job. Can I hide somewhere?

Peeve No. 1:
E-mail: "So, based on responses, we have openings on August 3 and August 7 for depositions. Which one works best?"
Response: "I put that date on my calendar."Me at desk: WHICH FUCKING DATE THERE ARE TWO OF THEM DIPSHIT?
Peeve No. 2:
Me: "Honey, have you seen my keys?"
Partner: from the other room "It's over there."Me in head: WHERE THE FUCK IS 'THERE'?
Peeve No. 3:
Me: "So, where did you want to go for dinner tonight?"
Partner: "Oh, I don't know. You pick."Me in head: THE FUCK IT IS WOMAN YOU VETO EVERY GODDAMN PLACE I LIKE EVERY FUCKING TIME.

Me: "Honey, have you seen my keys?"
Partner: from the other room "It's over there."
Me in head: WHERE THE FUCK IS 'THERE'?^OMFG THIS
Not to mention:
ME: I lost my keys, can u help?
SO: (not looking) Where was the last place you saw them?
ME: Right where I am right now. I just looked there.
SO: Where was the last place you saw them before that?
ME: IF RETRACING MY STEPS WERE SOME MYSTIC ART I HADN'T THOUGHT OF IN THE FIRST PLACE, OR HAD IT YIELDED ANY RESULTS, I WOULDN'T BE ASKING FOR HELP. -
Conversely, I hate when people are like HELP ME FIND THING I HAVE LOOKED EVERYWHERE*
You go lift up three things and find them under one of them. LOOK UNDER THINGS FOR FUCK'S SAKE.

@Ganymede I think you'll find one answer in this helpful facebook post:
-
ME: Have you seen my glasses?
EX: [starts laughing histerically]
ME: Oh, fuck you. [wipes glasses] -
Women who don't sound insane are really fucking boring, and aren't fooling anyone.
-
@Ganymede WELL YOU'RE IN LUCK, BOO.
(the joke there implying that i sound insane? or that i'm really fucking boring. idk. I've had a lot of caffeine today.)

Some men do the dinner thing, too.
If I'm asked 'What do you want?' if I don't have a specific preference, my answer usually at least has guidelines, depending on the state of my stomach. Like, 'I can't handle greasy stuff today.'
But my ex-husband loved to force me to 'choose'. So it'd become this series of:
Me: 'Ok let's go to...'
Him: 'No.'
Me: 'What about-'
Him: 'I hate that place.'and so on until I finally get to whatever he actually wanted.
And then the next time we see our friends, he'd go on about how difficult I make picking a place to eat. Men do it, too. (and then the major assholes still pin it on the woman.)

@Auspice Yeah, my workspouse actually does this too a lot. Not a gendered thing.
Basically, we all as humans suck at feeding ourselves. Too many choices.

David and I have worked out a system.
Me: Food.
David: Continent?
Me: Thinking Asia.
David: Asia is good. Left part or right part?
Me: Right part.
David: Chinese, curry, sushi?
Me: Curry, Chinese, Sushi. (Order of preference).
David: Delivery or roadtrip?
Me: Anything under thirty bucks. Make it so.
David: does magic -

No, no. This is wrong.
We're very good at feeding ourselves.
We're not as good in predicting what others may want.
We really shouldn't give a shit because adults should be able to obtain their own food.
But, no. We insist on partnerships and shit.
Because we're stupid.
Endut.
