AIBU?

I am offended. (ok rabbit, yes, petty, self indulgent etc)

Well not really that offended. A little taken aback. Too tired for actual offense.

So, Dp has a friend he hasn't seen for a couple of years come to stay. They were flat mates before i met dp, they have lots and lots of hilarious anecdotes that are mostly about special brew, falling asleep in skips, Ralph Maggio, stuff like that.

Lovely dinner tonight - but children a little excited. dd1 did talk about bogeys, was was a bit loud, and bossy. DD2 did prance through wearing my bra, while dd1 lay on the floor giggling hysterically, and then farted.

Apart from that it was going well, until he looked at me and said 'don't worry, i'm a teacher, i'm used to appalling children with parents who can't control them'.

I laughed. He didn't, he was really serious. They're only 2 and 5, they're just a bit noisy and giggly. And they think 'poo on my head' is a really really funny joke.

Are people going to come and tell me to get a grip and some perspective now then?

Actually, he's a dick. I'd have farted in his coffee.

OK, if it had been meant as a sort-of-joke then you migh have felt a bit cross but been able to dismiss it as someone with a tendency to open mouth and insert dick - but if he really was serious.... What a dick.

Even if your children are horrible (I have no idea but they don't sound that bad) it's hardly the thing to say to someone in whose house you are a guest.

LazyLineLegilimens · 10/08/2007 22:11

I think I might have slapped him.

What a knob

CrookshanksinJimmyChoos · 10/08/2007 22:12

I would have been mad at a statement like that tbh!! I think what your kids did tonight - in the comfort of their own home I may add - not someone else's house or a restaurant is just kid behaviour and funny! Tell him to poke it and if it bothers him that much, to stay in a hotel!!!

3andnomore · 10/08/2007 22:13

nope...he was a tosser, your Kids are normal...and thank god you can really enjoynthem as much as you do...because I am much more controlling...

snowwonder · 10/08/2007 22:14

bit way off the mark if you ask me, on his part.....

does he have his own children?

elasticsortinghandstand · 10/08/2007 22:14

so for you
what a tosser
how on earth will you contain yourself!!!

expatinscotland · 10/08/2007 22:15

I hope he doesn't have any children.

AlistairSim · 10/08/2007 22:17

Well, Boe-coe, just be thankful he's not your children's teacher!

Sounds like a right knob.

He should have been grateful for the first class entertainment your children provided.

Chirpygirl · 10/08/2007 22:17

What a knob.
Did your Dp say anything as as it is his friend it is really his place to tell him he was being bang out of order and rude

Bibis · 10/08/2007 22:18

When he calls to say thanks just tell him to fuck off he behaved like a tosser.

YANBU

He is BU

Boco · 10/08/2007 22:18

Oh good, glad i'm not the only one who'd be a bit annoyed.

No, he's single and childless. Dp loves him - they can talk crap for days - they've been talking about the Rocky films for a good hour.

He's nice, he's different - I just don't get him, i think he's an acquired taste - i do think he meant it, part of his humour is to be cuttingly honest.

It'll be an interesting weekend [weak smile]
