As the patriarch (my dad) of our family, don't you think he'd like a bit of dignity and thought from all of you ?
9 around a hospital bed FFS, while he's frail, slightly confused and in some discomfort...and you all sit there watching.
Can you imagine how he feels ?, a once proud and strong man, give him some space and dignity.
Why do family members, despite several attempts to get a 'shift pattern' going...all stubbornly visit at the same bloody time !!!

TBF, its nice everyone cares and i'm moaning because they're not thinking like i do...i suppose it's not just about the way i feel, everyone has their own priorities and timescales...but bloody hell.

Using the words 'hence' and 'why' together in the same sentance makes you sound like more of a knobber than most of the office thinks you already are.

If you are so proud of Yorkshire, and think that there is something about the place that makes it better than anywhere else, how come you don't live there?

I grew up in Yorkshire, but I don't bang on about it like it's a bloody badge of honour that makes me better than anyone else.


Because Yorkshire is a good place to come from.

And an even better place to arrive at.

I stared for a second, trying to compute whether she was actually being serious. She was.

"Europe isn't a country, honey. It isn't a language, either. Just how did you get this far in school?" She's also said that I spoke three languages - I don't.

"English over here, English over there, and a bit of French." While yes, there are differences in Canadian English and British English, they are both derivatives of the English language... Unfortunately, I didn't get the chance to explain this to her. I also didn't get the chance to buy her a laminated sheet of "Ways to Say "Happy Birthday" in Europe"... Which I was going to do for her graduation present. Shame, that...

Where I was they had a limit of IIRC 3 people visiting at a time.

Do not give me wild sweeping statements that you cannot back up, it just makes you look stupid.

This fitted the title unfortunately it came out today.

Perhaps if you had got some money together and some common sense then you wouldn't be in the state that you are. Stop blaming others/society for your problems, start taking some responsibility for once in your life

What I wanted to say:
You are an interfering, old bitch! Take your stares and half-witted comments about my son, and shove them right up your fat old wrinkled a**e!

What I actually said:
Oh, at last! An expert on Autism!! Please DO feel free to help me out here.....

Is sarcasm the lowest form of wit? Possibly.

Carry on giving me the sweeping statements that you cannot back up and which make you look stupid and don't get all pissy with me when I call you out on it.

Which came out as

"Step into my office.... now, why do you think we are here?"

Do you honestly think we believe you? When you get tummy ache, you pull faces, rub your tummy and whine about how much it hurts, when you get a migraine you pull faces, rub your head and whine about how much it hurts. You are a lazy c*w and you just don't want to work.
I wonder who you mean :rolleyes:

You really do like to play the victim don't you.

If you don't like people telling you that you are an idiot, then don't be one.
