Toast. It’s now my basket for toast.

Not if you’re putting your shoes on to go out and you have to walk to the laundry basket JUST to put one pair of socks in. Sounds fucking tedious tbh.

I mean if you want to spend £75 on a basket for dirty socks to live in the living room then go for it. If gf abandoned her dirty socks in the living room every day they’d get chucked at her every day, that’s all I’m saying

Wy wife’s got around me having a go at her for leaving socks all over the floor and threatening to bin them by wearing my fucking socks. Checkmate.

But if the socks weren’t in the shoes in the first place it wouldn’t require the trip? Also, is it not more of a hassle to gather up the socks once a week and put them in a basket to carry to the washing machine?

You’ve done yourself there by threatening to bin them tbf. Just chuck them at her, that’s what my mam used to do to my dad when he used to leave dirty socks about. Now he throws them upstairs when he takes them off. Out of sight, out of mind

I’m genuinely astonished to learn that living rooms with dirty socks all over the floor are seemingly not an uncommon thing.

Never more than one pair at a time. I’d really be pushing it then.

I’m relieved to hear that but saddened to say that there is often more than one pair on our floor if I temporarily let my guard down and don’t rectify the situation.

I love you meow

Don’t have many dommy grieves in the Iron household. Tend to do the washing up together and with music on so we bounce around the kitchen a bit.

My daughters both have the ‘strew the socks around the front room as soon as they enter it’ bug. The annoying thing is they both wear the same size and colour socks so it a long process to find out the culprit each time. The TV doesn’t care, she’s a sock strewer herself, and she points out it would be easier for me to just put the offending socks in the wash myself rather than tramp around the house to find the daughter responsible but that IS NOT THE POINT.

Hate not having socks on, only begrudgingly take them off to sleep

I think I am going to ask this person to pay interest, is that a petty thing to do, and what would be an appropriate rate?
Context he owed me £937.50 for 2 years and 10 months, for what was supposed to be a month

What annual % should I ask for (not that I would get it back

I know it’s annoying as hell - but I think It would be better for you if you just walked away from this person. You have the money back now I assume?

I like to have them on whilst mooching about the house but I live underneath a fluffy blanket on the sofa so they’re surplus to requirement therefore whip them off and discard.

I thought they were moving to another house together?

He never paid it back, I will be getting the deposit back minus deductions for carpets. He still owes me for a water bill from last march, and then there will be all the final bills which given past experience I don’t think he will pay promptly. I’m not going to be forceful about it, just tell him what he owes and when it needs to be paid for and then that is it from me, I think I should at least ask at that stage for interest

Me? No me and my housemate are going our separate ways, just got sick of how unreliable he is
