Pet Peeves

Okay, here's one. When somebody uses the kitchen and leaves the stove an egg-spattered mess and the counters cluttered with stuff they used but didn't put away, and I have to clean the kitchen before I can cook, and by the time I'm ready to cook I'm already exhausted because it's really difficult to do all that in a bloomin' wheelchair.

You've met my 23 year old, I see.

Lol, mine's exactly 23!

I've a sibling with the habit of leaving the dishes and a half full cup of flour on the counter. The food the sibling makes is worth the trade off though.

Someone group texted an update on a meeting time.

For the love of all that is sane, people, reply TO THE ONE PERSON WHO SENT THE TEXT!

I do not need to get 27 texts that say, "Thanks! I'll be there!"

I was sorely tempted to group reply, "Great! I'll see you there!" to every. single. one. Especially the one that come in at 11:47 pm!

Those group messages are annoying. My Mom got her phone added to a group message and she had to block the whole thing because it was too much.

I might have to block this.

Here's something you might be able to answer, @notabitail ... would the sender see that I've blocked their number?

Ya! I absolutely hate that work when they reply all - stop it already! If you want to reply to the email don’t include me in it. I have enough worthless emails!

No. If on iPhone and the sender is blue, then they can guess that you blocked them because it'll turn green.

Um. Is it a fb thing for people to do a thread as a pm? For a while there I was getting several pms for problems that really should have just been open threads, from people I don't know. Newbies probably. Happened again recently. Why is this? How should I handle this?

I don't know, maybe redirect them to post it as a thread?
