    Well tonight’s gonna be a shitshow.

    In brief, bro is coming down to the bellarine for dins, we’ve had a massive falling out over a bunch of shit, I’m gonna be expected to cook, wasn’t told this was happening, shouldn’t let the ol’ girl cook for them (not fair on her / bit risky in her condition, which bro doesn’t care about), bro and ol’ boy can’t cook, I can’t stand bro and his acute NPD bs, gonna be guilt tripped (ol’ boy’s gonna crack the shits) if I’m not there or even if I am because I’ll call out bullshit.

    So, there’s gonna be a lot of tension either way.

    Not gonna ‘win’ this one. Winning in this sense is just a pleasant evening, which it won’t be. I just wanna go to the beach for dins in solitude and have a steak sammich and pat some doggos but that will be inflammatory behaviour.

      Hard core response : put a sign on the door “Closed for Repairs” and go to the beach with sammich as per usual. When you return from beach, microwave up some youfoodz trays for them. Or some other low-par instant ‘meal’. Dodge the convo if you can.

      Soft core response : Meet them at the door. Demand that they do a doordash or similar for their food. At their expense. Then go to the beach as per usual. With your own choice of sammich. Don’t share it. Have essential convo on your return.

      It doesn’t help much considering the situation, but I’m sorry your bro is a dickhead. Sending you good vibes 💜

      Oh dear, you seem to have bird flu. What a pity.

      Much sympathy for bullshit.

      Low-effort nachos. corn chips, pre-grated cheese, salsa - bake. Tuck in cunts.

      I’m so sorry, that’s a really crappy situation to be in. Could they at least be persuaded to get takeaway perhaps?

      Extremely hot chillos in the food. Hopefully his pride means he can’t back down 🌶️

      Or a knuckle sandwich 🤭
