I'm assuming there are many as well, especially since no one started a BM Monday!
WTF parent of my student, why do you think it is my responsibility that your child was 20 minutes late to class and that I "allowed" him to wander around campus? Not my fault the kid couldn't ask another staff member what room we were in for the day (after I had told them the previous day anyway...). Don't complain to me that your kid got an unexcused late! Read...TWENTY MINUTES after the bell without a pass...and our classes are only 45 minutes long. So yeah. He's late. No pass? No excuse.
WTF coworker (who is notoriously creepy) coming to my desk 2 minutes before the end of my day, so he can tell me about the football ticket he just bought... News Flash Jon... nobody cares!
Also WTF Target - bought two maternity shirts, washed them, wearing the first one today and it has a hole in it?! I love Target, but this is ridiculous...
WTF Atlanta, yes it's dark in the morning now and it's raining but this should not exponentially increase traffic/accidents. Pull yourselves together so I'm not 45min late to work again tomorrow.
Also coworker, you are not the greatest thing to happen to science so get over yourself. I am not an incompetent tech like you like to treat me. I've collaborated and published far more than you in the time you've been here so obviously other investigators think I'm good at what I do as well as our boss who askes me to work on all these projects to begin with. End rant
Wtf DH, can you stop snoring for one second! It's bad enough I already have pregnancy insomnia, but I don't need your rhinoceros sounds in my ear all night!
WTF coworker? We've had this major conference planned for the last two months. We cannot move it to a Hilton just because you would get more points (which no you would not...I would). I am also not your personal assistant to boss around with all the minor details....I might shoot you before this event kicks off.
Also WTF body? I ve been doing so well with not gaining weight this pregnancy...although I look it, and this am when I step on the scale I am up two pounds. Yesterday was the first day that I could eat without gagging, the least you could do is give me a few days...
WTF self, why did you wake up thinking it was Thurday? It's only Wednesday, and you have conferences tomorrow night, so you are no where near the weekend.

Don't feel bad! You're supposed to be gaining weight :-) And if you haven't gained ANY weight up to this point, 2 lbs is MORE than reasonable.

WTF Powers That Be? Why are presidential debates being broadcast only on cable channels? 17% of us are excluded from participating in this part of the political process.
(Sorry. I know that's way off topic, but it's bugging me ATM.)
Wtf DH, can you stop snoring for one second! It's bad enough I already have pregnancy insomnia, but I don't need your rhinoceros sounds in my ear all night!
Okay so WTF about that video with LEO flipping that kid backward out of her desk and then dragging her across the room, and WTF to the commentator on CNN saying "It only looks bad, she wasn't hurt?" Does that make it okay?
WTF with the dreams? I've struggled with a PowerPoint presentation all day at work yesterday trying to get all the hyperlinks to pull up the right videos and documents correctly for training. Since we're training on Information Security Incident, Breach Notification and other electronic information security, I had a dream that someone went in there and replaced my hyperlinks with porn and malware sites. It wasn't discovered until we clicked on a link at a full training session and then the computer blew up. I checked my PowerPoint as soon as I came in today and tested all the links and then made the file into a read only.
Wtf DH, can you stop snoring for one second! It's bad enough I already have pregnancy insomnia, but I don't need your rhinoceros sounds in my ear all night!
My poor DH has been sleeping in the guestroom because of this.
@rebelone oh my goodness!! I saw that video in Facebook last night. it just recently went viral right? I got so angry watching that, I started crying and I went on a 20 minute rampage about abuse in this country to my dog because no one else was around to listen to me. Lol
WTF DH, There's been a waterspot on the first floor ceiling for months, and I've asked him what we should do to address it. He ignores it, until finally the drywall cracks. Then, he tells me to call a plumber... To come out the next day. I respond with 'I'm off Friday, I'll schedule it then... Or you can come home for it'.
Radio F&$king silence in response. I work, too! WAY FURTHER FROM HOME THAN HIM. He's usually a good guy, but this 'wife handles all household problems' is not gonna fly, unless he gets a massive raise so I can stay home!
@rebelone I'm a teacher, and I have had students that were unmanageable and horrible and rotten that I had removed from my classroom (once even by a police officer, though usually by school discipline personnel). There have been times that my students have behaved in a manner that warranted them being handled the way that girl was handled...by their sibling maybe. But a cop? An enforcer of our law and constitution? No way. And I'm all for supporting our cops because I'm a firm believer that a) we need their enforcement of the law to maintain some level of civility and b) the majority of officers are good men doing a good job (you will have good and bad in every profession). It is SO unfortunate that the reputation of police in general is being tarnished by idiots like this guy. I heard on the news this morning that there has been additional footage of that incident where the student hit the officer first. Doesn't matter! She was seated in her desk, so the best I can imagine she might have done is whacked or punched him in the arm. So that, of course, warrants throwing her across the room in her desk. I didn't even see him make a move to get her out of the seat.

I totally agree. I do support our LEOs and their job has been real tough lately with the selective publicity, but this incident was crazy and totally uncalled for how he handled it. And yes I know there are some terrible rotten kids out there that require intervention from staff and law enforcement.

I know. I am dealing with it and I am thankful it has been 16 weeks with no gain. With DD I gained slowly, and would see a half pound or so, and was expecting the same this time. Really hope I am not going down my BFFs path of 2 lbs a week until birth.

A teacher from Detroit posted a heartbreaking commentary about this on Facebook.
Her point: a kid with a bad attitude is still a KID. Instead of recognizing this and trying to draw them out, our system is set up to throw them away based on what we see on the surface.
That video makes me sick. Kids in my high school physically resisted all the time. They didn't get tossed across the room and arrested, they got another adult or two helping to restrain them and take them to the principal's office until they calmed down.
WTF Amazon. WEATHER delay? Of a DVD? Please explain how something like that even happens? I have Amazon Prime, and I ordered Hocus Pocus on DVD on Monday because I'm tired of trying to catch it on ABC Family (which I try to do every year, but this year is particularly frustrating since we cut cable, and therefore the DVR, to streaming on a Roku) and I just want to watch it before Halloween is actually over. I had every intention of vegging out with Hocus Pocus, and my bag of Reese pumpkins tonight. Don't ruin my plans!!!
WTF#1 goes to my youngest stepson (age 6), who in his usual pattern asked this morning what day it was. To which I replied "Wednesday", with the response of "Yay, that means tomorrow I go to my mom's!" Sigh...he really is a sweet kid, and I'm glad he loves his mom (even though she sucks as a mom IMO), but damn, dude, I do NOT need to hear about it every other week.
WTF#2 goes to my scale. Like @Ready4theParty, it's been pretty stagnant for almost 2 months due to nausea. In the last 5 days it's jumped up almost 4 pounds. To be fair, I think some of that is water weight because I worked out this weekend for the first time in a long time and I'm super sore, but still. That puts me up about 9 pounds and I'm only supposed to gain 15-20. :-S
My WTF goes out to DH's baby mama. Their youngest son (10) is having a lot of behavioral issues at school and is being threatened with OSS. She doesn't understand why. Umm, maybe because there's no discipline in your house, you tell a 10 year old that the man he has always known as dad isn't his real dad, and he isn't provided an outlet for his energy. He's 10; he needs to be doing something other than sitting in front of the TV playing xbox because his mother is too lazy to be a real parent.
@rebelone oh my goodness!! I saw that video in Facebook last night. it just recently went viral right? I got so angry watching that, I started crying and I went on a 20 minute rampage about abuse in this country to my dog because no one else was around to listen to me. Lol
I literally sat in my car and laughed out loud on this one. Not about the post, but just imagining you talking to your dog. This was priceless!
WTH co-workers... yes, my bump is getting bigger. Did you expect for it to stay the same size? Do you plan on saying this for the next 5-6 months? I'm just wondering. Because i thought I was growing a baby, but obviously i'm not supposed to gain weight in my belly. Or anywhere else. Oh and you telling me "it's going to be a big baby" doesn't really make me feel any kind of way. I mean DS was born at 2lbs 3oz. What I would give for an 8 pounder this go around. Needless to say...just hush for a little bit. It doesn't hurt. We can talk about other things than my growing belly. It's ok. I wont be offended.
Wtf DH, can you stop snoring for one second! It's bad enough I already have pregnancy insomnia, but I don't need your rhinoceros sounds in my ear all night!
Preach girl! This is my WTF every night!
WTF, H- not only did you snore like a wild animal last night, you haven't put the sheets back on the guest bed properly from when your brother visited a month ago, so I had no choice but to (try) and sleep in a partially made, slept-in bed when I had to leave ours.
WTF, nosy ass people? I am still hiding my pregnancy (almost 18 weeks and going strong!) from basically everyone but my family and closest friends. I had a loss earlier this year and have major anxiety issues so I just can't deal with people knowing. But you don't deserve to ask me all the time if/when I want to start a family. Especially if the only thing I know about you is that you sit next to the coffee pot at the office or ride the same bus as me.
Other people's family planning IS NOT YOUR BUSINESS. Also, friend- just because I told you I am pregnant and finally told my parents DOES NOT mean you can tell yours. My pregnancy, my business. If it isn't your baby and you know I haven't splashed it all over Facebook, that means DON'T TELL. I don't care if you are just "happy for me!", I can't have your mom running around telling other family friends who don't know yet.
WTF, body? Why can't you pregnant like you are supposed to? First, an ectopic in March and now a single umbilical artery diagnosis. It's like I am drawing the short straws for pregnancy. Why do I get to experience all the "fun" problems?! Is it too much to ask to just have a regular pregnancy?
@sarahufl sorry to hear about the pregnancy troubles. I can relate to your other post about other people spreading the news, my own boss did it to me. So irritating that certain people can't be trusted with confidential news.
WTF MIL why do you tell me that since you assumed we were finding out the sex of the baby not to tell you because you don't want to know, you want it to be a surprise. Ummmm last time I checked this was our baby not yours, you don't get to make those decisions. Lucky for you I don't want to know or I would purposely plaster the news all over Facebook and send an email to the whole family. Ugh she really has been getting on my nerves lately.
WTF cars? Yesterday DH had a flat, then his spare went flat. The battery died yesterday in my car too (granted it has been threatening to do it for weeks). And all at once, mine needs an oil change, both need gas and windshield wipers. I just want to spend money on baby things...not stupid car things! UGH-I am done adulting today!
WTF having work related dreams about my day...only to wake up, and then have to repeat them all again in reality. Then dream about the next day overnight. And repeat.
WTF coworker? Obviously my vent from this morning wasn't good enough. You had to change your mind on ALL THE WORK I HAVE DONE for this conference from the beginning. Its bad enough you went behind my back and got the other EA involved but when my boss shut you down, you went behind his back and got his boss involved throwing both my boss and me under the bus....to the company CEO. Yes, I did go to my car for twenty and cry....otherwise I would have stabbed you.
WTF asshole kindergartners in my nephews class? He's wanted to be a skeleton for like three months, and you're all gonna make fun of him the entire day til he's sobbing? All day?? Go have fun with your super hero lemming trend and be nice! Whatever happened to kids being nice to each other?
WTF DH... or baseball... or both. I'm happy for you that your team is in the world series, but these late night games are KILLING me. I know I don't have to stay up for them, but I have a really hard time falling asleep as it is and when he is still up screaming at the TV there is definitely no legit sleep happening for me. If it was one or two games I wouldn't care, but tonight will be the 13th game and they always go so late! Not to mention his whole life is consumed by these games and I'm over it. We've had four different sets of visitors in the last 2 weeks (including both sets of parents), all staying over on weeknights which is stressful enough, and he just sits on the couch glued to the TV while I run around like a crazy person trying to clean the house top to bottom. Umm.. get off your butt and help me! You can watch the game while putting your crap away and you can help me clean the bathroom during commercial breaks. Please let the Mets win the next 4 games so this doesn't get drawn out any longer than it has to!!!
WTF guy at the gym... 3 seats on my left... 3 seats on my right... And you choose to sit right next to me?? Really?? Ugh that's like being in a an empty bathroom and someone chooses the stall right next to you.
I got puked on today while I swabbed a 8 year old boys throat for strep. He was freaking out about the swab , finally I got him to open his damn mouth I was about done and he threw up on my hand and arm. I swear to god it took everything I had not to puke but I kept it professional and cleaned him and the room up. He also tested positive for strep sooooo that's fun . The mom just sat there like nothing happened. GTFO lady!!! Fml I miss wine
Wtf to everyone scolding me because I got my hair done today.. A much needed pamper time for myself! NEWSFLASH PEOPLE: if my OB says I can get my hair done in a well ventilated area by a professional, then best believe huntty I will be listening to my OB and not a bunch of over-zealous unwarranted "advice". Everyone can go suck it because I look F A B U L O U S
