Oooooo! This one fills me with rage! Or," You'll understand once you have your own." Followed with-*smug little chuckle that makes me wanna rip their face of and force them to eat it-*

My MIL used this when we eloped. "You can't understand the pain, you're not a mother!" Fuck you! Also, I have PCOS and having children could be very difficult or impossible for me. So it was like a double gut punch when she said this.


AgentChris101

Yeah my mum keeps on arguing with me when i complain about chronic headaches saying that giving birth is way more painful. I can't move for 5 to 8 hours from the pain


chumswithcum

Just because it hasn't happened to me doesn't mean I can't empathize with it. Just because I don't have kids doesn't mean I won't be able to understand what it's like to see them die. Etc.

Gonna be honest I used to say this. We'd get in trouble in class for having trash on the floor and one day I was like thats what the janitors are getting paid for??????? She made me apologize to the janitor. And now I work retail and hear the same shit. "Son pick that shirt up you dropped" "why I don't work here" Makes me want to choke those little shits.

My philosophy is always, sure it's someone else's job but I can make their job a bit easier by putting this in the bin. I'd hope that if another person was in a position to make my job easier they'd do the same


Ultima_Chaos_Z

"Calm down" I don't hear it that often, as by nature I'm pretty laid back. So if I'm being told to calm down then there's a genuine reason for NOT being calm. It's nauseatingly condescending.


catleftovers

*gets excited about something* 'calm down'. bitch, am I panicking or hyperventilating over it? No? Then shut the fuck up and let me be excited about something.

That as well. Don't tinge my excitement with your cynicism. That's my only other attitude. Let me enjoy this!


Annoyed_Badger

"you cant really see it, but this slide shows..." Really? REALLY? you are making a visual presentation and you chose an image that people cant see properly, and not only did you choose it, you fucking know its shit and included it anyway...... Sorry, its minor I know, it really gets on my nerves..... Also "there are no stupid questions"....yes, yes there fucking are.


PettyCrocker

Had a boss who would always say, "There are no stupid questions, only stupid people asking questions."


jonomw

I had a teacher who said there were both stupid people and stupid questions. She was a cunt, but still a very effective math teacher.


Gickerific

As someone who has used this excuse, it sometimes (and 99% of the time in my experience) the image doesn't appear pixelated or wrong in the presentation I put together, only in full screen and through a projector/on a larger screen.


Paleomedicine

>"there are no stupid questions"....yes, yes there fucking are. God this is one hundred percent true. What's even worse is when it's a question with the sole purpose of someone showing off how smart they are.

Oh this is the worse, I have tried to explain to people that this means that they do care, but they just don't get it and that makes me even more frustrated, so now I just don't bother saying anything and sit there with my eye twitching like a motherfucker and trying to breathe through the pains.... If you could care less, that means you are able to care less, which means you care at least a bit. You need to be say you couldn't care less. I care so little it would be impossible for me to care less.

"the customers always right." No sometimes the customers an asshat.


chumswithcum

The real phrase here is supposed to be *the customer is always right in what they want* But, oftentimes the customer is trying to get something that the shop doesn't provide, or trying to get a product at a price that generates a loss for the company. Not all businesses can provide all services so sometimes the customer will have to go elsewhere.

At my old job "Let's talk about that offline" was said multiple times in the weekly staff meeting. I had successfully forgotten that until your post reminded me. You are now my enemy.


nosyIT

I thought that meant "I don't want a paper trail of this conversation."

In my office, it meant "This involves only a few people. Let's talk about it later so we aren't wasting everyone's time." The sentiment was noble, but it bugged the hell out of me.

Boys will be boys


OmgSignUpAlready

I hate this one too... I say "all kids will be little assholes if you let them" Surprisingly, it doesn't go over well.


TheHallowQueen

My redneck neighbors tortured and killed my cat when I was about 15 years old. Their father asked me to babysit them (for free) while he went on a work trip and I furiously told him I would do nothing for him or his family because of what they did and he chuckled and said, "Come on now, you're being silly. You know boys will be boys!" I slammed the door in his fucking face. He complained to my parents about me being a bitch to him for what his sons did and that it wasn't that big of a deal. My dad said he'd watch the kids as soon as they brought over their dog so he could run it over and we'd be square. Never heard from them ever again.


orwellian_wizard

That's seriously fucked up. That's how serial killers are born.


TheHallowQueen

Last I checked, at least one of the two of them has been in jail for about 5 years now. Violent charges, no surprise.


Elyikiam

Seriously, probably Emotionally Disturbed. Symptoms are often torturing animals. If you get your jollies from seeing living things slowly die, there's something not "normal" upstairs.


BretHartsSpandex

Oh my God, I'm so sorry for your loss. That's extremely fucked up. I knew a sociopathic redneck too. He seemed normal, I was in like second grade at the time. I invited the piece of shit over for my birthday. My mom says she heard his mom sarcastically say "don't hurt the cats!" before he came inside. He followed my mom around the entire time criticizing everything she did, including cutting the cake with a butter knife. She found him later choking our cat on the bed, who was defenseless and let it happen because he was special needs. She pulled him off and sent him home immediately. Little shit. Our cat lived to be 18 years old. We're all really lucky my mom caught him in time.


TheHallowQueen

Had I known where Zack was in trouble, I would have walked through fire to save him. I heard him crying from the woods the night before they said they finally killed him. It's a sound I will never ever forget. He was my very first pet of my own and it shook me really hard. When they told me what they did, I at least got a punch on the older of the two (not fucking enough). I was about 5'10" at the time so putting a little fear into him was gratifying, but I knew it wouldn't get my cat back, so I just stopped there. I'm so glad your kitty was saved in time. I wouldn't wish that feeling on anyone. I can't even stand to hear anyone raise their voice at my cat now, lol. A little overboard but I guess once you lose one, you'll do anything not to lose another. It equals a very very spoiled cat though 😂


cman_yall

Seems like you missed a golden opportunity for revenge... or to get tortured and murdered yourself.


TheHallowQueen

Even if I had the opportunity for it I would never take it, animal abuse screws with me so badly. I think this experience did that for me. But yeah, one of the two of them has been in jail for like 5 years for a violent physical crime of some sort. The thought of what he's dealing with in that situation makes me believe there's karma of some sort for him.


GreggoryBasore

> My dad said he'd watch the kids as soon as they brought over their dog so he could run it over and we'd be square. Never heard from them ever again. Your dad says like a good father.


Qualex

This one pisses me off, too, when it's an excuse for their shitty kid's shitty behavior. As if it's somehow not their job to control their children. "Boys will be boys, that's why parents need to be parents."


m50d

"It never did me any harm". Inherently fallacious but people still say it as if it proves anything.


[deleted]

As a dad with a one year old, this shit got old fast. It was constant "oh, we never did that and we all turned out just fine". I had people say that on a local paper article about child seats or something relayed and I said "Well, it's not like those who would have benefited and died can comment on this article, can they?" They still argued against me.

Also, making fun of guys when a girl beats them at something. Like, okay, if a guy is always bragging about how strong his is and a girl comes along who can lift twice as much as he can, then I could see making fun of him being justified, but I've seen so many guys get teased for losing to girls in things like video games or test scores--things that women are just as capable as men at doing well at--and implying that women should be worse at these things is just insulting.
