stating the bleedin' obvious

Oh I'd consider this a full blown panda spank for sure Wizzy! One of my all-time favourites in the "duh" department was when I was a teenager and I'd been out at a party or something and was way past my curfew. My guardian at the time would be waiting up for me and the second I walked through the door, she'd scream at me "Do you have any idea what time it is?????" Well no, of COURSE I didn't! That's why I was holding my shoes and socks in one hand, had entered through the rear sliding door because I was afraid the front door would creak; was also bright red in the face because I'd been holding my breath so that no-one would hear me even breathe; and had decided to undertake this ebtire process in pitch darkness! "Have you hurt yourself?" is definitely up there also. There I am laying on my back across exposed tree roots after having fallen about twenty feet from the tree itself. My face is pure white from the terror of having fallen so far and having had the wind knocked out of me, plus I'm covered in scratches with blood pouring out of every major limb and my left temple. And then of course up run the friends..... "Jeez Mate! Are you OK?" Yeah sure guys! Who's for some tennis? lol.

My favorite is..."You're late!" Naw, really? I'm here, but I just was completely anaware of the time, It was a complete disregard for your time on my part. I knew I had to be here at SOME point today so I figured I'd just show up at some point. I did't bother looking at the clock. I didnt' bother trying to get here on time. Nothing came up, I had no obstacles. I didn't worriedly glance at my watch the entire time I was trying to get here. I just showed up whenever. Thanks for pointing that out though! (would that qualify as a panda spanking reply?)

yeah,one of the hubbys line is(obviously to irritate me)is the breakfast ready on seeing everything is laid on the table and there are also several other instances which make me feel like banging my head.

Actually, I've always felt that when folks state the obvious, they really have NOTHING else to say! I mean honestly, you can't say hello? But sometimes they're just trying to draw you out to disclose something about yourself; I just say 'thank you' and move on, especially if it's someone that I don't know well.

Sounds like a panda spanking to me, Wizzywig.*L* I really don't have any to add to the list that others have already given. They all drive me insane. My reply to the haircut thing is usually, "Oh, really? Which one did they cut?" Nobody ever gets it.*L*
