bitch away, my babies

My cousin's little kid keeps trying to hit my dog with his toy car, even after repeatedly telling him not to. They are returning home with us tomorrow, so it will be an hour and a half of non-stop fun with him trying to kill my dog yay!

Not a rant but someone left a giant turd in the bathroom, and my brother said someone had landed the "millennium falcon" inside the toilet.

Also I've been sleeping in a tiny couch for the past two days and sweet baby Jesus my body hurts like a bitch. Considering moving to the floor, even if that means blocking the way for everyone but fuck it, everyone got a bed except me.

Oh, and did I mention the fact that there's no windows in the bathroom? And there's a lot of heat in here?

... have your cousins tried to stop him? How old is he? Someone really needs to teach him how to respect animals. :/

I hate the holidays because I'm Jewish and nobody would take me seriously when I told them to stop celebrating around me. It is only common courtesy.

LOL! I imagine most people DO stop celebrating around you.

yes, I am certain ordering you to stop your purim celebrations are exactly right.

no, wait your just being rude.

Pretty sure you're just trying to mock the guy from last night. Because venting about feeling bored when the rest of town is closed is just the same as ordering everyone to stop celebrating around you.

Why are you so butthurt?

got felt up by drunken relative

what the fuckkkk

DDDD:

I'm sorry, anon.

Yikes! I am so sorry.

Ugh. I'm sorry. Does the rest of your family know this person's a creep? It's still gross, but not as bad as when everyone circles the wagons to defend a yucky bastard.

I spent all day helping to fix up some hideous old house for rental. I don't even know where some of my bruises came from. (I'll be back again every day for the foreseeable future that I don't have a work shift. I have no idea when I'll be able to do the editing I promised.)

Grandma still racist, told me there's always bad stuff in Syria because great-grandfather was a French soldier in Syria in the 30's and came back sick, and already foresaw that they were crazy about Allah.

Got into a brief argument with my mom because she was criticizing me for not finishing my turkey at dinner and I was getting frustrated and mumbled "Merry Christmas," so she had a big fucking baby fit and stormed out of the house. When she came back she whined endlessly how I had to "ruin Christmas" by being HORRIBLY MEAN to her and how she went out of her way to make a nice Christmas dinner blah blah blah she's the victim I'm forever the ungrateful asshole who deserves to be treated like a child. Merry fucking Christmas to me.

I'm sorry. :(

It must be a rough Christmas for the both of you. I hope things get better between you soon.

I'm tired of their being special sets of rules that my parents will enforce with me but not my siblings. My sister got herself a huge bowl of ice cream with peppermint bark on top and he said nothing but I got two items and he flipped out.

Then today my sister and multiples of one thing but when I tried to get more than one of the fudge- "no only one".

When I got upset dad kept shutting me down with "you trying to start an argument?"

Questioning anything they do is always 'trying to start a fight' and results in punishment. I have to just accept whatever arbitrary rules they only enforce with me.

It's frustrating. I hate being made to feel like a brat or a trouble maker when I ask why these 'rules' only apply to me.

Maybe you need special rules. Have you considered that? I seem to recall you saying you had a condition that gave you reduce impulse control and reduced insight into daily functioning. It could be they are watching out for your best interests.

My mother came into my room without asking this morning to look for something. I was reading a femslash fic. She asked me what I was reading. I made some excuse. We still haven't talked since then, so I don't know if she saw or not.

My step father was his usual asshole self. He and my mum constantly argue--and it's usually him that flips his lid. If my mum says anything that can even be slightly taken as criticizing him, he takes it that way. ("I'm wrong, I did it wrong, I can't do anything right", ad nauseum, when in fact, that was not what was meant.)She tries not to react or gently tell him he's wrong--but sometimes she yells back. They've done this for years, it's just worse now that that he's in his 80s (mum's in her late 60s). He still does this constantly, even though she's on kidney dialysis--which tires her out a lot and leaves her feeling shitty, but he doesn't care about that. She always excuses his behaviour because he's in so much pain from arthritis.

We were getting our food for xmas dinner and the plate of turkey meat was on the counter; I simply asked if it was meant for the table. He gets all snarky "Where else would it be for?" Well, dickhead, maybe you wanted it left in the kitchen and we'd get it after we got our veggies? Fuck. Luckily he's fairly deaf because I muttered that I didn't need his bullshit today as I carried it into the dining room. Actually glad no one heard me, cus it really upsets my mum when we argue. Which normally happens cus he picks at me until I react, though I do my best not to, but sometimes, I just get tired of it. (One of the happiest few hours of my life was when I was a teen and mum asked me if I'd go with her if she left him. She never did.)

The sad thing is that this is so normal in my parents' house that I didn't think of it being suited to this thread at first.

My sister misread her plane ticket. She's arriving at 10 PM tomorrow, not 10 AM. Which means we're not celebrating Christmas until Monday. And I have to go to church with my parents, which I thought I was getting out of.

"What do you want for Christmas?"
"Stay sober until tomorrow, because your drinking is killing you and absent a miracle this is your last Christmas, and good memories would be nice."
"Okay."--proceeds to lie really obviously and get angry when called on it, asks why I care since Christmas is a shitty fake holiday since we're not religious and almost all the rest of our family is dead, blames drinking on my nagging and my being a slob, claims I'll be better off when she's dead, laments that I won't just let her die because I have no friends, boyfriend, or other family, and asks why I bothered with presents and dinner.
Thanks so much, mom.

I'm the one who always has to travel and it's been that way my entire adult life. I'm single and all my local frends have family nearby and always go to see that family at Christmas, so I'd be on my own if I didn't go to see my family. It's a 7 hour drive to see my immediate family and a 4 hour plane ride plus a decent amount of driving to see extended family, so I get to spend a day traveling on either end to visit people who get to sit on their butts and wait for the world to come to them. No one wants to travel and visit me, but think it's perfectly acceptable tat I should have to endure the hardship and expense they want to avoid. My #1 requirement in an SO is "willing to stay at home at Christmas, even if that means it's just the two of us, and do absolutely no traveling whatsoever, even if your parents just live across town."

Heartfelt sympathies, anon. It's really tough being the one who has to do all the work of visiting.

I had this when I went back to the country of my birth recently. Just about every single relative said "Oh, you mustcome and visit us." There are a dozen or so of them. I'm disabled and I made the plane journey with the aid of morphine and wheelchair assistance. And I still get guilt-tripped when I don't race around the country giving each of them individual visits.

The last time I did make the effort, through the snow, not even kidding, one aunt's parting words to me were "You must come and see us again before you go!" And since then I haven't bothered at all.

Maybe Christmas on your own would be preferable to busting a gut doing the duty visits? A sudden crisis at work, for instance. Car out of action. Or simple lack of cash. You deserve a bit of time off for good behaviour in any case, since you've been doing all the visits for years.
