Hello dreadfuls! Let's just get this out of the way upfront - you look amazing. I'm crying hysterically into an oversized jam jar about just how buff you look so that I can keep the tears and relive this moment in years to come. Thanks for sharing this moment with me.

Anyway, I don't know if there's a forum out there that considers questions of reasonableness but if there is I bet it's great. Would mums who are on the net do this? I don't know. Maybe. Let's move on.

AIBU to expect one of the people I work with - who I cannot fire, more's the pity - to not always reference her husband in literally every single thing she says?

I understand that you think you're wealthy and your husband used to be a big shot and I've met him and like him but the constant refrain of, "Oh, X and I used to do this ..." is just becoming insufferable.

You are almost 60 years old and I don't want to hear about your opinions on why iPads will be the next big thing (?) or why your yacht isn't as good as you expected it to be or why your concerns about mutton being dressed up as lamb don't seem to stretch to the fashion horrors you inflict upon us (I do not want to see your fufu through fat-lady tights when you bend over to put that file in its place).

GD, AIBU?

eurgh dont even go there.. we have a larger lady at work who insists on wearing short dresses when her role mainly consists of bending, lifting etc. yesterday she had an unfortunate split in her tights.. :eek:

i nearly made my colleague vomit when i said they may be crotchless tights.. :D
 
AYBU? No, but work people are often annoying and this should either be accepted and tolerated, or brought up politely. Otherwise you slowly die on the inside...
 
So you are complaining about your co-worker or boss always referencing their husband. Deal with it. You are so good at talking here... the answer is obviously to tell them how you feel.
 
You are most definitely not being unreasonable (YANBU!). The fact that this woman constantly needs to validate her own life by relying on the achievements of her "husband" shows how badly woman are portrayed in the media (somehow). Its anti feminist and she has clearly been brainwashed by these so called "men" into thinking this way.

Off topic but can anyone help me set up a honey trap for my husband? I could use some extra money and I feel a divorce would help, seeing as I probably dont get paid as much as my "superior" "male" "colleagues".

Also GIRL POWER!

I know it's a little indelicate to show such obvious appreciation of your skills in that great callback but that was good.

I think I lov -
