Annoying Old People Are Really Annoying

[poliphilo]

 Ailz rings her mother to say, "I'm feeling too ropey to visit today".

"Yes, but can you go pick up the dog's insulin"

"Not at the moment. What is it about  'feeling too ropey' you don't understand?"

"Yes, but can you go pick up the dog's insulin"

This annoys me so much I tell Ailz to tell her mother to fuck off. Only I don't say it out loud; I mouth it.

And then I write this post.

The dog is not only diabetic but blind and obese- and can just about waddle as far as the back door. When it can't be arsed it pisses on the carpet. Oh, and I was forgetting, it also has an expensive skin complaint.

Yes, it has a lot to do with entitlement. Ailz's mother has been horrible to her all her life and now expects to be waited on.

:;is wondering if you have Dog and Ma together as the one creature in your mind. Then you could call them DogMa!::

Or indeed Mad Dog.

LOL.

My father-in-law is also in the mix. He's the one who refuses to have the dog put to sleep.
