The passive-aggressive guilt trip
My mother is an expert in the guilt-trip. Last week she phoned to say "Happy Birthday" and, after a 10 minute conversation, finished with, "Well, I hope you have a nicer time than I did on the day you were born."
She also stated that she was going to kill herself when she reached 65. On Christmas Day morning. Having rung up to see if there was anything she could bring for lunch.
I think it's just a mother thing, but how good are your relatives and friends at the passive-aggessive?

I've learn't my lesson now
Not long after I got married my wife and I were sat watching a telly program (can't remember what one now). It must have had a quite pretty young lady on it and I remember my wife asking "do you think she's pretty?"
When I answered to the affimative I got "SO WHAT'S SO FUCKING GOOD ABOUT HER, THAT MAKES HER SO MUCH BETTER THAN ME......." and on.
Since then when asked a potentially loaded question I retort "sorry, wasn't really paying attention"
I'm shagging her best mate anyway
