Do’s and Dont’s. And some Why’s.

filed in Just a rant on Mar.29, 2010

Do people know empty boxes go in the recycles? Not back on the shelf.

Empty box left on counter. Note There WAS another full box in the cabinet which no one bothered to put out.

Why leave a nearly empty bowl in the fridge?

This is why 'people' shouldn't hang the finch feeder directly over the spot where the dog lays. (dog had to be vacuumed)

Not pictured: The lemonade container with only a swig left in it. It’s very ‘odd’ that I’m always the lucky ‘swig recipient’ and I have to make another gallon.

Also not pictured:

The empty feminine product box. Nuff said on that one.

Man, it really pisses me off sometimes how lazy my family can be.

I always seem to get the last ice cube and have to refill the tray. Oh, and one time, I went to get a feminine product out of a box that I did not realize was empty…during a major ice storm. Power was out every where…not a store open for miles and miles! I thought I was going to have to flag down traffic looking for a female between the ages of 15 and 50!

Hey, your house looks like my house and your family members are my family members? No sense trading, I guess.

Or not replace the dog’s favorite rug (when it mysteriously gets dirty) so he lays in the dirt outside rather than on the cold rugless floor…

Or the can’t-squeeze-another-use-out-of-it toothpaste tube…

Or the garbage can that is so full that when you try to put any more in it, the teetering trash pile topple over…

Too funny, and can you tell that I can relate?!

Awww…poor puppy!! I haven’t had the pleasure of your experiences, but Princess is only 6…and well, LK just doesn’t do stuff like that, even when he does live here. Or maybe he does and it’s just been so long I forgot.

I put the empties back too. This teaches a lesson (sometimes) that the fairy that brings the food will not come if she is not invited by leaving her a note on the list.

but no, the thing I hear is what list, I didn’t see any list. Duh you were supposed to start a list

Did you ever see that george Carlin routine where he talks about the empty plate in the fridge? That was a classic!

I agree about the empty containers. I also find them in the freezer after the ice cream is gone.

Maybe I’m just experiencing the Jesus potato chip phenomenon, but is that a (headless) reindeer in that bowl?

Are you sure you didn’t sneak into my house and took pictures from around here? I found similar items around here today.It blows my mind. They know it drives me nuts and makes me not very nice, yet they keep doing it.

I know! It’s bad enough my boys “didn’t notice it was empty” but it really chaps my hide when it’s my mom or husband! Ok, cleansing breathe…calming down…

Sadly I live with those same people. I do have to say my husband is the least offender, but my kids, ooh please, and the girls are the worst. My other favorite empty issue, the shampoo and conditioners left in the shower empty, and no one tells me a thing they need, like those or tampons when I am going to Target, sure we have one close, but do I really need to be there daily? I think not.
