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.

I suspect it has little to do with age and a lot to do with entitlement based on past experience.

I am getting more and more hard hearted and angry about people who refuse to hear others to get what they want in calculated oblivion. Let the fucking dog die in a diabetic coma, I feel like saying, but I'm mean and I fight with my family so I'm a bad example.

Sometimes all one can do is write the post.
I love dogs with all my heart and have two and will have more when these pass on. But if I ever get to the point where I cannot personally provide for their needs, I will stop having dogs at home.

I have no patience with manipulative parents.
