Driven to Madness
Captain Placid asks: What annoying things do significant others, workmates and other people in general do that drive you up the wall? Do you want to kill your other half over their obsessive fridge magnet collection? Driven to distraction over your manager's continued use of Comic Sans (The Font of Champions)? Tell us.

Recently divorced: My war against the House Rules
Her House Rules drove me up the wall. On the other hand, I'd be the first to admit that I drove her up the wall across the ceiling and down the other side, but I'm the one on B3TA, so...
- There are no rules, except for the ones I make up, arbitrarily and on the spot
- No pissing in the shower
- All beetroot must be crinkle cut
- Obey all the rules
I actually wrote most of the House Rules down (essentially for taking the piss purposes), and I swear on my dog's life that these are all true:
- Don't fart while you're asleep
- Don't wipe your feet on the doormats, I've just cleaned them
- Don't wake up, walk to the bathroom, fart, and come back to bed, because you might bring the smell back with you
- Don’t mix your smelly laundry with mine – you’ll make it dirty.
- The Spoon Laws
And, most importantly of all:
- Don't play that game where you try to beat the slow closing toilet seat when you have a wee.
She had a point with that one, to be honest.

No pissing in the shower?
But it saves water on flushing and saves time too. We used to refer to it as "killing two birds with one stone" in our University house.

My housemate once tried to show me up in front of the pub.
By loudly declaring that I thought it was acceptable to piss in the shower.
I don't think he was impressed with the apathetic 'and?' he got from the other patrons.
