Twatwaffle Tuesday (8/23)

Who's your twatwaffle today?

RunBooRun · August 2016

My TW today is my boss. She's normally pretty awesome, but she sent me an email at 9:29 PM asking me to attend an offsite 8am meeting.

Don't you know my pregnant butt is asleep at that time? Also, don't send me an after hours email and expect me to make it to an early morning meeting. I check my email at 8am, no friggin way was I making it.

This damn cold is a TW. It needs to go away. The first time in forever, though, I'm happy it's humid out because it's helping my sinuses a bit.

Mine is one of my supervisors and their bosses as they promise timelines for stuff that they don't know anything about and then get mad at us when it takes longer than they think it should. Everyone neesd to take a chill pill.

My husband is a TW because he refuses to clean toilets or the floor around toilets. He says, "I just can't. Its a thing."

I say as I clean his pee off of the trash can. Or the toilet in the bathroom in the basement he uses to poop and I never use. And no, leaving it for nature to take its course isn't an option because my toddler is FASCINATED by toilets.

Rant over. My H isn't really a TW. Just had a few TWish tendencies.

Ugh, the twatwaffle today is hand, foot, mouth disease. My 2 year old caught it from another kid in his daycare and I have to leave work to go get him and he'll have to stay home all week. I noticed a sore in his mouth this morning but thought that maybe he bit his tongue. Nope, not so simple. Got a call from the daycare earlier and yep, he's got it. And of course there's absolutely nothing you can do about it. Staying home with a sick kid is awful. It's definitely not a vacation by any means. Boo!

@kiyamurph oh noooo. I'm so sorry!! I'm not sure how we've managed to avoid HFM so far, but I know it's coming. I hope your kiddo gets over it quickly.

@longliveregina My son is OBSESSED with the toilet. He just learned how to open the lid and splash around...so gross.

sammajane19 · August 2016

DrillSergeantCat i'm with you on the head cold. i can't smell/taste much of anything, my nose is so stuffed! ughh

MH is my TW today. He's sick and it's the end of the world. He thinks he needs to go to the hospital for a stomach virus. He has anti nausea meds already. They're not going to do anything. He just keeps texting me and stressing me out.

meq124 · August 2016

@ladyoriza man flu is the worst thing ever. Why are they such babies when it comes to being sick?!? Last year DD gave us all a stomach bug and DH had thrown up twice and thought we needed to rush him to the ER.

My MIL is a TW. She got mad because I took 48 hours to return her phone call. Sorry MIL, I was working full time, taking care of the house, being sick, sleeping it off and prepping for house guests for the weekend. When she tried to tattle on me to DH he lost his mind on her and told her to stop acting like she's 5. Now she and FIL are not speaking to us.

Noooooooo!!!! It's the WORST! I'm sorry you guys have it at home. Wash your hands x100000, adults don't usually get it unless they have a compromised immune system like... pregnant women.

Mccolpitts · August 2016

@longliveregina definitely a win!

mrsyimster · August 2016

I hate the smell of reheated garlic bread... DH knows it, but he wanted some. And he reheated it while I was in the bathroom. Like really I can't smell it now?!!! Ugh

Wait, you only hate it reheated? Not the first time it is heated/cooked?

Gators&BoSox · August 2016

DH's friend/renter is a massive twatwaffle. Long story short we are in MA, the house is in GA, and he hasn't payed rent in two months. Our check is "lost in the mail" and he won't pick up the phone or answer texts. DH has enough to deal with between crazy work, school, and DS the last thing I need is this douche stressing him out more. WTF man

mtmama2 · August 2016

@ashannon3490 wow that really sucks that a "friend" would do that! Lost in the mail? Really?!

Gators&BoSox · August 2016

ya not just friend..groomsman.. he's a mess man I'm so annoyed... If I wouldn't have to take DS I'd drive down there, call cops and throttle this dude.. not pleased

MY TW is a possible trigger warning

My TW is the woman who told me to 'do the world a favor and slit your wrists'
When people get on the phone they get this power to say whatever the hell they want.

Oh my, that is absolutely awful. I am so sorry you had to deal with such a cow. How people can sleep at night after they talk to another human being with such hate baffles me!

peony2418 · August 2016

Fingers crossed the groomsman realizes what a jerk he's being and the check shows up tomorrow (with interest!!) and he starts answering his phone. That sounds like a nightmare, @ashannon3490.

Wow @pinnerk. I'm so sorry you had to deal with that today. What a jerk. I just can't even believe it.

What a horrible thing to say! So sorry you had to deal with that!
I completely understand what you mean by "when people get on the phone they get this power to say whatever the hell they want". I work in patient accounts and have people say all kinds of awful things to me too. It's like they completely forget their manners when they don't have to look you in the eye.

I know it's Wednesday, but my day started off with twatwaffles.

I have these... I'm gonna call them hillbillies... that live across the street from me. They're harmless, simple people. They forever are building and taking down structures. Moving their front door onto every side of their house, and moving this fifth wheel camper they have to different spots in their yard, then camping in it.

This morning, two of them decided to start weed wacking... at 6:55am. Which is about twenty minutes before my alarm goes off to wake me up. When I left my house at 7:50, they were still at it. It definitely made for a loud, annoying morning... which I hope doesn't put me in a bad mood for the rest of the day.
