    My late grandmother once told me that my late grandfather had cheated on her and afterwards wanted a divorce. After they filed, he wanted her wedding ring so he could give it to the woman he cheated on her with so they could get married. My grandmother gave him the ring but took the diamond out of it. 🤣

    I had a highschool teacher who was very color blind. He was amazing! One of those teachers that's everyones favorite. He told us when we all met him early on that he was colorblind and answered any questions we had. Then lightheartedly he told us that his wife picks out his clothes for him each morning so that he'd match for work and that we'd know if she's mad at him. Basically everytime she was mad at him, it was so obvious bc she would either send him in the most ridiculously mismatched outfits or let him pick his own out. On those certain mornings he would walk into class, we'd laugh at him and ask, "Soo, What'd you do?" And he'd just knowingly & painfully ask, "oh man, how bad is it?" 😂😂😅
    we absolutely loved being in on her petty game all those years ❤

    One time my brother in law got angry at my sister in law for buying something he didn’t like and he told her that from now on she wasn’t to “make a move” without him.
    She decided to take him literally! She woke him up to ask if she would get out of bed in the morning, she called him at work dozens of times throughout the day to ask if she could change the baby’s diaper, replace the toilet paper, etc.
    but when she had his secretary interrupt a meeting saying she had an emergency and then asked if she could change her tampon he relented and never told her she had to ask for permission to do something again. 😉

    My husband wanted me to become a SAHM. After much deliberation since I wasn't too keen on the idea, I decided to just do it. First week I would make sure dinner was ready when he got home. Friday rolls around and I wanted to make an extra special dinner. I spent two hours prepping and cooking a beautiful, delicious meal. He walks in with a sheepish puppy dog look and says, "I wanted pizza for dinner." He proceeds to order it and eat it. I haven't cooked for him since - 5 years and counting.

    When my in-laws were first married, in Oklahoma in the early 1920s, they were living with his parents. When they sat down for breakfast one morning, my father-in-law didn't like the dress she was wearing and told her to go change. She said no. So he went over and tore the dress off of her expecting her to run from the room in embarrassment. She did not. When he told her to go put something on she said, "No. You took it off of me so you must want me this way." She sat there in her underwear for the entire meal! He never did that again. That woman was a spitfire until the very end. Love you Mama! Miss you.🥰

She said ok and took it off and walked out of the house. He was shocked! lol That day he learned not to ever try and tell her what to do or how to dress.

      One woman told me that her husband rang and said he'd be late, and to put his dinner in the oven. When he got home (he'd been at the pub drinking, not working late) she pointed to the oven, where his ham and SALAD was being kept warm. I don't think they lasted long. Divorce on the cards when alcohol takes precedence over family time.

      If someone is reading comments and wants a fun-fact: in Italy we do often put sugar in "Bolognese sauce".
      It's an old tradition to compensate for the acidity. At least one spoon for every 5 or 6 tomatoes.
      The USA Bolognese sauce and our "ragù alla Bolognese" are not the same thing, but in both are often traditionally added spoons of sugar.
      Especially in the North of Italy, people used to put sodium bicarbonate, but sugar became more popular in the last centuries.
      So your nonna would be proud nevertheless.

Since he insists on leaving it inside out before laundry (I hate doing it and simply ask that he turn it right side out and zip or button but often “forgets”), I just leave it all as is and make him turn it out. I have even stoped folding his stuff because I’m not going to be bothered making it neat when he chucks in around in his drawers. Funny how now that he has to do it, all of his stuff stays nice and neat in his drawers.😂

    About 20 yrs ago, my husband & 2 sons sat down to eat dinner & I hear muttering. I look up & my husband goes, "Really? This again?" Mind you, I worked 60 hrs a week as a hairstylist, shopped for all the groceries, cooked every meal plus making lunches for them all AND kept a spotless house. Who did these people think I was? Martha Stewart? So, I politely got up from the table, took their plates & threw everything in the trash....including what was on the stove. The next day I went to the grocery store & bought about 60 frozen dinners. I continued to buy frozen dinners for 2 solid months. Then I figured, "I haven't cooked for awhile. Maybe they've learned their lesson." Nope. I spent my one day off making homemade lasagna from scratch only to have my husband come through the door & say, "What is that awful smell?" I proceeded to take said lasagna out of the oven & toss it into the garbage......& hand him a microwave dinner & repeated the process for another 2 months. It's been 20 yrs. Not ONCE has anyone said a word about my cooking since.....and I'm an excellent cook. Just a petty potato 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    My grandmother's first husband walked out while she was pregnant with their 3rd child. Said he "didn't feel married anymore." Apparently he'd been using his family as an excuse not to get drafted (1940's, WWII), saying there'd be no one to support the wife & kids, etc. Well, after he walked out, Grandma contacted his draft officer, and informed him of the situation. The officer was so obliging... Grandma's ex got his draft notice on his birthday.

    My Abuelita owned a restaurant in Tijuana, Mexico when she was younger(she’ll be 99 next week! Yay Abuelita!). Well she is the queen of petty for so many reasons but one particular thing that stands out; almost daily this man would come in and he was a total jerk. Demanding service and never saying please or thank you. At the time, it wouldn’t be acceptable for her to flat out turn him away. There was one thing this man would do every single time he went into the restaurant…he would always order coffee, add sugar, cream, stir with a spoon and lick the spoon which was followed by him complaining loudly that his coffee was too cold and demanding a new cup immediately. This happened countless times until one day, Abuelita had enough. The guy arrived for his morning coffee and went through the same routine. But this time my Abuelita took the cup and removed the spoon then she proceeded to place the spoon on the hot griddle in the kitchen. Waited a few minutes then grabbed the spoon with an oven mitt and put it back into his cup. She gave it to the man and waited for him to take out the spoon and put it into his mouth. When he did, he jumped up and yelled a few expletives in Spanish. He went to say something to my Abuelita and she said “Hot enough for you?” Smiled and walked away. From then on, he never complained about anything and spoke to my Abuelita like the queen she is.

    My great grandmother lived on a farm in Wisconsin with her husband and their 7 children. Great grandpa was a womanizing gambler and was usually just home long enough to get Gigi pregnant and then gone again, often for weeks or months at a time. Last time he left, without a word, Gigi sold the farm, moved the fam to Florida, purchased MANY acres and started farming. This was during the Great Depression. Gigi ended up with many more children (railcar kids), all of whom she put through trade school or college, depending on their leanings. 27 adopted children and their families showed up for her funeral, and people in that little town still occasionally talk about "Miss Alice". Never did hear from Great grandpa though...

    My Grandmother was a master at petty! My parents had been engaged for over a year...set the date, got the dress etc etc. My aunt, only a couple months before the wedding day, got engaged and said she had to get married before my parents. My grandmother was furious with her and insisted that no, they have been engaged and planning this for a year you can wait. Aunt kept pushing and then it came out that she wanted my grandparents to pay for their honeymoon. So my Grandmother set a plan in motion. They would pay for my Aunt's honeymoon but only if she waited until after my parents got married. My aunt agreed and when the time came for the honeymoon, she discovered that my grandparents and her youngest brother (who was 12 at the time) were also packed up ready to go. Turns out my Grandmother decided that if they were paying for this honeymoon, then it was a family vacation. So my aunt and uncle went on their honeymoon with my grandparents and my uncle in tow.

We came back later to Dad showered, alert and ready to take us to the event. But that shirt...for the next 10 to 15 years that shirt hung in full view in the laundry room, unwashed and still ripped. My dad had to walk by it every day. It wasn't until they remodeled that room that the shirt was finally discarded.

    My grandmother told me one time she had just pulled a 12 hour shift as a nurse and she came home and still needed to cook dinner for her, their kids (4 in total) and husband. All she wanted him to do was wash up some of the dishes so she could start cooking...he proceeded to whine about is saying he worked all day also and was so tired blah blah blah. Like she wasn't just up herself almost a whole day and night also working as a nurse...but anyways he finally did start while she went to change out of her scrubs. He yells to her that he's going out that he will be back by the time the food is done &he had gotten the dishes done. So she goes in ti start getting the food out and goes to grab a plate out of the dish drainer and every single dish was so greasy still she almost dropped it, so she picks the rest up checking them and so once she realizes he half ass did them and expected her to just do them right her self and cook for him as he left her there with the kids on top of all this. She proceeded to throw and break every single dish he "washed" making sure to leave a beautiful mess for him to clean up when he got back from where ever the he'll he just left to go to. So she rounds up the kids, leaves the meat out and dishes broken on the floor and takes off to go get dinner at a restaurant with the kids. I don't think she came back that night and just went to her mother's so she could get some sleep. But refused to come back until he apologized and cleaned up the mess..When she finally did return the mess was cleaned up but she just got tired of him treating her poorly and they got divorced sometime later. I can picture it from start to finish lol. No one deserves that after working super long hours and still being a mother on top of it. I don't see anything wrong with her response 🤷🏼‍♀️

    It was actually my granddad who was petty! Turns out, I get my (severe lack of) height from him. Grandma was at least six inches taller. It came from his height being stunted due to lack of food when he was a prisoner of war, 1943-1945. And grandma liked wearing high heels. So she always looked extra tall (we are a short family). She made the mistake of commenting on it. Once. After that, she could never find matching high heels in her closet!
    RIP, Granddad Maurice

    My parents had the craziest relationship. They weren’t happy unless they were fighting and fought to the bitter end, married 52 years when my dad passed. One of my favorite stories of my mom’s petty paybacks was after one of their morning fights, dad went to work with a sandwich she had made him. Before he could take a bite, one of the guys he worked with noticed a piece of paper sticking out of the sandwich and grabbed it. My dad dismissed it as probably a love note from my mom trying to make up for pissing him off that morning. The guys at the other side of the table burst out in laughter, though, because the note said, “I hope you choke on this, you bastard!” 😂

    So I only found out about this during my grandmother's funeral a few years back. All my aunts and uncles flew in of course for the funeral.
    During the wake my aunts were chatting about some of the stuff my grandmother used to do when she was younger and they told me a story of when she was really young.
    She lived in New Jersey at the time. She barely had any money and had no car (this is important for later). One day she came home from work and her house was robbed.
    A few months later, she learned that the person that robbed her was a friend of hers. She didn't learn about this until after he moved to California.
    So my grandmother, with no car, and practically no money, hitchhiked from New Jersey to California, tracked this guy down, knocked on his door, and when he opened the door, she punched him in the face, turned around and hitchhiked back to New Jersey without saying a word to him.
    And all I can think of was, grandma did that? Bake me cookies and fed me medicine while my parents were working while I was sick grandma did that?

    My grandpa HATED the squirrels that got into the bird feeders right by his kitchen window because they ate all the bird feed. He would bang really hard on the window and yell at them all the time. My grandma always told him to settle down and stop hitting the glass or it would break. Sure enough, one morning when my sister and I were spending the summer with them, he hit the window so hard it cracked. The whole thing needed to be replaced, and it was a BIG window. He then griped about it for days.
    I guess my grandma had heard enough, because after a few days of his complaining she took my sister and me to the craft store and bought like three bags of these little resin squirrel figurines. She had us go all over the house hiding them wherever we could. We thought it was the funnest thing ever, so we were attaching them to lamp pull cords, putting them in his dresser drawers, his popcorn bowls, his shoes, all the cups in the kitchen, his pillowcase, etc. They were EVERYWHERE. He never hit a window again. He did keep yelling at the squirrels though! Miss them both.

    My grandfather was a pilot, my grandmother - a geologist (not a very "womanly" profession some 65 years ago in my country). He courted her relentlessly, promised to love her forever "for who she is and what she does". Eventually she agreed to marry him, and not 2 months later he started to say things like "Why don't you grow your hair, it would suit you better", "Why don't you buy more dresses, you look like a man with your haircut and all these pants and shirts" and, eventually, "Why don't you quit your job, I'll provide for all of us, and you're expecting already". So she said "And that's exactly why I never wanted to marry" and divorced him! She has continued to work in geological expeditions until she hit 70 and finally retired. He asked her to come back and promised he'd never try to change her again multiple times, but she wasn't the kind you can fool twice :)

    The pettiest thing I ever did when I was mad at my husband: he used to work second shift, so he'd get off at 10 and come home. I had dinner saved for him. I would heat it up and give it to him to eat while I stayed up late just so we could connect for a few minutes before I went to bed. All I asked him to do was to put the dirty plate and silverware in the dishwasher. One night he didn't do that. He just left the plate sitting there when he was done with it. I wasn't going to touch it so I ignored it and he did the same thing a second night. After the third night I refused to bring him his dinner any more; if he wanted it, he had to go to the kitchen and heat it up. But he STILL left the dirty dishes sitting there, even with me asking him to get them into the dishwasher..
    After TWO WEEKS of those stupid dirty dishes sitting there, I had had enough. I welcomed him home as usual one night. He ate dinner while I sat with him and then I kissed him good night and went to bed. He never noticed that the dirty dishes had disappeared, and he didn't ask what happened to them.
    But he found out. Oh, yes, he found out: They were piled up on *his* side of the bed. He must have discovered them when he tried to get into bed in the dark. I have no idea how he reacted because I was sound asleep, but the next morning the dirty dishes were in the dishwasher.

    My late maternal great grandmother, Nani, was such a brat and we loved her. Didn’t matter if she had diabetes, you can take her candy away from her cold dead hands. I took my first steps towards her on my first birthday. She was lovely.
    Anyway, on to the story. So my mother is a hairstylist (and honestly acts like everyone’s auntie, friend, sister, mother, and uncertified therapist) and, as such, gets to know all her clients very personally.
    Well, one of her long-time clients was telling my mother about how her granny somehow managed to get into “Old Lady Time-Out” at the nursing home facility despite being the victim of some other old lady’s bullying and putting, of all things, a live frog down her blouse. My mother said that her grandmother, Nani, also lived at that nursing home and she was planning to visit her soon, so she’d do some investigation work on her client’s behalf.
    So!
    The day of the visit arrives and momma is ready to get the tea from Nani (because if y’all have ever worked in or frequented an old person living facility, you know they gossip and cause drama like a bunch of high schoolers). Well, turns out that tea was a bit more literal than we thought. Because Nani was also in “Old Lady Time-Out” despite some other old lady having dumped a pitcher of iced tea on her during lunch the other day (…or water…it’s been over a decade since I heard the story…we’re Okies so it’s probably iced tea).
    Knowing Nani, these events were connected. So momma did a bit more digging there to find the truth. Which went as such:
    Client’s Granny participated in this sort of bake sale that the nursing home did to raise money and give the residents enrichment. Nani threw some shade at Granny’s subpar baked goods, which is a significant insult in the grandma community. Slanderous even. Especially coming from a nanna that knows her way around sweets. So, in retaliation, the Granny confronted Nani later in the cafeteria and decided to relay her hurt feelings in the form of a pitcher of liquid onto Nani. Because Nani was a petty force to be reckoned with, she somehow managed to go into the garden, smuggle in a live frog, and give the Granny payback in the form of an amphibian entering her clothing without her consent.
    Thus, the two were both put in “time-out” by the facility. (I don’t exactly know what “time-out” entails since Nani somehow managed to finding the Granny to frog).
    When my mother saw her client again, she was eager to know if my mother uncovered the truth and caught the culprit who frogged her grandma. My mother, grimacing, admitted that she did, indeed, find the culprit, her Nani. While and after sharing the whole story, the two were laughing to tears because (a) it was absolutely in-character for their grandmas to act that way, and (b) truly, it does not matter how old we get, people will still act like petty dramatic teens from time to time 😂

    Fun fact: if something is put out on the curb or in a trash receptacle out by the curb for pick up, it is considered public property and therefore up for grabs by anybody.
    Also, the best petty compliance I have ever done was at my job. Picture this it's 3 minutes until closing time (my McDonald's closes at 11). We have a lady come through drive-thru. I'm like welcome to McDonald's, what can I get for you tonight? She starts out nice and polite, gives me her order, then mentions needing a replacement for an item from a messed up order from a week ago. We have a log for replacement orders so we can know who needs what replaced. I ask her what her name is , who she talked to, and when so I can find her in the log. She tells me her name, says the date she "called", and that the manager she talked was someone named Lindsey or Leslie she wasn't sure. Well her name wasn't in the book anywhere and the managers she mentioned Lindsey never worked there and Leslie had quit a month prior. So I tell her to pull forward and we'll keep checking the book. She pulls forward (it's now 30 seconds to closing time) and the person in window tells her we can't find her in our book. He tries to explain to her that without proof of purchase we can't help her (this is policy). She starts getting rude telling the person in window to look again. He tells her we looked at every page and entry in the book and can't find her name. She demands to speak to the manager. So we get the manager. He tries to explain to her what she was just told we can't find her name in the book without proof of purchase we cant help her. She get even more rude. It is now 12 minutes past close. The manager closes the window and walks away before he loses his temper because she wasn't listening. So I just want to finish cleaning the restaurant and go home. I ask the manager if he wants me to just get her cashed out hand her her food and get her on her way. He says yes but try to hurry we need to do closing tasks. I say ok and go to the window. I open the window and she instantly starts demanding to know my manager's name. She's all what's his name ?! I want his name! Give me his name! I tell her due to safety policies I can not give her his name, however I do need $11.34 to get her cashed out and on her way home with the food she ordered. She keeps demanding the manager's name. I think I told her like 3 times I can't give it to her and that i needed $11.34 to get her her food and get her on her way home. She goes, "You need to listen!" At this point, I'm done with this interaction. I'm tired, I want to do my closing tasks and go home. So I cut her off saying "No, you listen, it's currently 11:14.

      TLDR: had a lady come through drive-thru and order food then try to get free food. Plan failed so she got rude and demanded private information on the manager. Was told no help could be given to the free food, and no private info would be given to her. She gets told her total so she can get the food she ordered but no free food. Keeps demanding private info. Is told to either pay her total and take her food or leave the drive-thru because it's after closing time. She says to shut the f-ing window. So I said ok, shut the window and locked it. Look of audacity was my prize for petty compliance.

    My mom was the petty wife and my dad clapped back and made her head explode. It's been like 30/40 years and she's still mad at him about it and he's still very slyly proud.
    They had some kind of fight and my mom threw a pork chop at him at the dinner table. My dad, not wanting to give her the satisfaction, said nothing. He just picked up the pork chop and ate it without a word. Her head exploded right off her shoulders she was so pissed at him for the lack of reaction. If pork chop is said around them she grumbles about it under her breath and glares at him and he just smiles all sweet like he doesn't know what's going on. 🤣

      It is really sad that your dad involved you into this so you don’t have your relationship with grandpa.
      My dad didn’t have a good relationship with his dad. His dad started to drink heavily when he was 30 and my dad was 2. I really appreciate my dad’s attitude towards our relationship with grandpa. He never said anything bad about him when we were kids. My brother and I were the only grandkids our grandpa had. When my brother was born grandpa went to rehab facility and stop drinking. He was amazing with us. I am really glad my dad didn’t program us against him because he personally felt bad about him.
      Maybe a year before my grandpa died he finally told me how hard it was to be a soldier during WWII. He also told how he loved a woman but his parents organized his marriage with my grandma. Same thing happened to my grandma. It was unhappy marriage from beginning to end. It was Soviet Union and divorce was not an option. Grandpa started to drink as many others. I love my grandma but she is not an easy woman even to live with.
      The whole point is what happened between your grandpa and grandma- their relationship. You probably don’t even know the whole story. But you and your grandpa should build your own relationship. Don’t waste this opportunity just because your dad and your grandma hate this man

Apparently, it wasn't enough for Pawpaw. He said she needed to get rid of more and that, in his opinion, she shouldn't have more than 3 totes of the stuff...

After having the main she brought out dessert presenting it all "cheese cake, fruit cake and ice cream" but my grandad said "no it's not fruit cake its christmas pudding" as we were eating our dessert they kept going back and forward fighting over if its fruit cake or christmas pudding. So, my grandad being the petty man he is, when we were all in the dining room chatting he disappeared into the kitchen. We were all a bit confused but continued chatting. Later as we all went into the living room on the tv stand there was the box the 'fruit cake' had been in and it was facing the side that in big white letters read 'christmas pudding'. My grandad was smug for the rest of the day.

    Our neighbor’s kids would repeatedly (like 4-5 times a day) kick their ball into our fenced yard, and proceed to come ring our bell to ask for it back. This went on for MONTHS.
    These neighbors called the police on us because my husband didn’t IMMEDIATELY return a ball one time (he was working from home and in a meeting). He had told them he’d get it later, forgot all about it and had the *audacity* to leave his own home for a run.
    The police showed up, talked to us for a bit, and mentioned that they told our neighbors that we didn’t have to “hop to” every time they threw a ball into OUR yard. And that the next time they were called out for something like this, they would be issuing a citation for misuse of emergency services.

    The couch in the yard reminded me of one of our neighbors calling the city on us because our yard hadn't been mowed. It wasn't anything terribly high and we planned on cutting it that weekend (like most normal people). Because we have small/short dogs we do make a real effort to keep our yard cut on a regular basis. I think this particular time we skipped one weekend, so it was due, but not a forest! She is an older lady who does nothing but work in her yard all day long while my husband and I work during the week. Well...the city gave us 10 DAYS to "rectify the situation" or we would be fined. Although we had absolute FULL intentions of cutting it in two days (on a Saturday), we waited the FULL TEN DAYS before cutting it. Additionally, anytime we were on a 10 day "notice" we made sure to be outside "trimming trees or weed-eating," but not actually cutting the lawn. We continued to do this for every notice we received (about 5) until the calls stopped and she realized that she would get what she wanted much quicker if she just let us cut it when our schedule permitted. Haven't received a notice in about 4 years now!

    For some reason my grandpa throws this idea out and just buys my grandma’s presents without her. She comes home to them wrapped and placed on the living room table. My grandma is ridiculously passive aggressive.
    She told me this account firsthand when I came for the usual visit in JUNE. She’d left the presents on the table for 6 months with the condition that my grandfather either return them or go on the agreed shopping trip with her. He felt she was over reacting and refused and my grandmother wasn’t backing down. It’s been 10 years and I still don’t know what happened to those gifts.

In my state you have to put them in special recycling bags or in a yard clippings trash can so they can be collected and recycled, it’s the law. There is also a cut off date for the last day of pick up. We are working our butts off for like 2 weeks trying to get this all done as just more and more leaves keep coming down. At one point a wind storm came up and a pile of leaves were working on kinda blew off into the cul-de-sac (and apparently some into our neighbors yard) whoops…neighbor was very unhappy and made a point of calling my husband over and complaining to him about the leaves. My husband apologized and explained how we were overwhelmed and offered to come and blow the leaves out of his yard, the dude seemed annoyed but declined. In total we bagged up like 35 tall lawn bags and that wasn’t even all the leaves. We have to pay for each bag that needs to be picked up. We had a much better plan of attack this year and it went much better. That neighbor will forever be deemed Stupid Ass Leaf Guy.

    My favorite petty moment as a cashier was when this family of grown adults was incredibly hateful and disrespectful, talking about how slow I was because they were in a hurry, making rude remarks and just talking crap. It was instant karma my friends, because it ended up that they needed change, and I had to call a manager to bring more change up...all for some pennies. They kept belittling me, and even had the AUDACITY to ask if I had change that I could just give them so they could be on their way. Right 😂 because I'm gonna go out of my way for you after you were jerks? Haha, think again, Karens and Kens! 😂 I made them wait for their change. It was only like 3 cents too. Sucks to suck! Bahahahaha.

    My mum was a server as a teen and a couple left the remainder of their change from the bill….it was 1p. She only realised when they were almost getting into their car so she ran as fast as she could just to catch him up, give him the penny and said “I’m sorry sir, it seems like you need this more than me” and just walked away. She said she pulled the best pity face for him like he’d just had crappy news
    Perfect petty is when you can really F someone off but you’ve been polite so they can’t do anything!

    I think the pettiest thing my maternal grandma has ever done is to her late husband’s parents. They were really abusive to her and they bought a family plot before they died and my grandma has the remaining four plots. They were also incredibly racist so my grandma sold the plots right next to her mother-in-law to a Vietnamese couple. She always looks so smug when she tells the story.

Grandma caught him, they never separated but grandma still put those sweets on the table day and night for everyone to see and eat. Just to remind grandpa about it. But now its a tradition. She died last 2020. Gone but never forgotten.

    My great grandfather had a petty moment with his neighbors once. He kept telling the neighbors to keep their rabbit out of his garden because their pet rabbit was destroying the stuff that he was growing. They would not listen. Finally he told them that next time the rabbit comes in to his garden that he's having rabbit stew. One day the rabbit comes into the garden again and so my grandpa went inside, grabbed his shot gun, and went out and shot the rabbit. They had rabbit stew that night.

    Grandmas are the original Petty queens. My grandma had a gorgeous blue with purple flowers dress she loved and wore for special occasions/church, etc. My grandfather said he hated the color purple and she should just get rid of the dress. She was like fine. She kept the dress, boxed it for storage, but bought nothing but purple dresses until the day she died in the late 60s. Mom said she had about 50 purple dresses in various shades and the one gorgeous blue and purple dress that started the purple wars that my 16 year old mom inherited and altered to fit her and wore it to my grandmother's funeral. Never met Grandma but she's my freaking hero.

    My grandma, who’s still alive, 91 yrs old and fitter than a fiddle, is fucking iconic. This spanish woman got married to a portuguese man (my grandpa), bc her sister’s husband knew him from work and they were introduced that way, and her sister wanted my grandma to come live close to her in Portugal. My grandma, who has a lot of suitors and wasn’t really that interested in settling down, bc she had her own work, her own money and liked her independence, was finally convinced to go for this guy since he made a lot of grand gestures in the beginning and she figured that her biological clock was ticking, so she might as well settle down soon kf she wanted to have kids (she was in her late twenties/early thirties). And also, ofc, her sister living in the same city was kind of s deciding factor.
    Well, she marries him, and they have 3 children together. My abuelita came from a pretty wealthy family and had always had a maid growing up, so when she came to Portugal she didn’t even knownhow to cook an egg, she told me that she remembers calling her parent’s house back in spain to ask her nanny how to to it. But my grandma has always been a go-getter, she was raised by a feminist father who told all of his daughters that they should work and be independent, and she put that same attitude towards learning how to do housework and take care of her children (3 sons). Well, things were pretty good in the beginning, but soon she noticed that my grandpa started to change (or show his true colours). As she tells it, she started to notice how different portuguese women were treated compared to spanish women in city she’d come from. In Spain, the husbands went to work and made money, but when they came home they handed it over to the wife, who managed the household. Well, in Portugal things didn’t work the same - she started noticing how women on the streets were always wearing clothes of lesser quality than their men. How her husband refused to ”give” her money to spend on clothing, school things snd even food for her kids. Finally, she had to resort to making jewelry and meat pies, anything she could sell at a food stall to get money because her husband refused to give her access to any funds, and she started to suspect that he was cheating, then got confirmation. Ofc she told him that she was leaving him, going back to her parents house in Spain, but back then the man of the household held all authority over the children, so he told her that she could leave, but she’d be doing it without her children - so, she stayed. (Apparently this happened to a lot of spanish women around this time, as my grandma tells it. They were lured over the border by portuguese men and then trapped by having kids with them, and most mothers can’t leave her kids).
    So, yeah, she stayed, and the night she found all this out she went to sleep on the couch - but then she thought, ”am I stupid? Why am I the one sleeping on this uncomfortable fucking couch? I’m not the one who’s done something wrong”. So she went to their bedroom and told my grandpa to go sleep on the couch. He said no. She said ”ok, this is what we’ll do then. We’ll both sleep on this bed (it was s big ornate bed, a wedding present from her parents and I think it had been their before they gave it to her), it’s big and we’ll both fit in it. But mark my words - if you so much as touch me with ONE finger, I’m gonna kick you off of this bed and then God have mercy, cause only he knows what I’ll do to you.” (My grandwa was and is a devout catholic, so she meant her words lol and he knew it). He never touched her again. She waited until her youngest son had left for college, then she packed her bags and left with only the possesions that could fit in her car. She drove to Spain, a new town cause her parents were dead and her hometown didn’t really feel like home without them there, and besides, she’d found work as a secretary in a beach town. There, she bought an apartment in a high-rise with the help of one of her sons (my uncle), and made a new life for herself. She’s best friends with her neighbour, walks down to the beach almost every day and the best part is that she can afford a better life because of my grandpa’s stupid pride. You see, my grandma is catholic, like I mentioned, and never wanted to divorce, or get married more than once, both because she takes wedding vows very seriously, but also because she’d just fuck8ng sick and tired of men and never wanted to settle down with one again, so she figured that divorcing or not didn’t matter to her cause she wasn’t ever planning on getting married again either way. But she’s a very practicsl woman, so she said that it went against her principles to innitiatena divorce, but if he wanted one she didn’t fuckng care either way, so if he put the papers in front of her she’d sign them, her concience clear in that she did her best to the bitter end. Well, grandpa wanted a divorce BUT he didn’t want to withstand the humiliation of living like a divorced man, so he told her that no, he wasn’t gonna give her any papers to sign. She shrugged and left.
    Well a few years later, when she was close to retiring, my grandpa was in a car accident. I’m not at all saying that he deserved it or anything like that, but perhaps karma has a way of making things right, because he’d been a heavy smoker and the car crash basically killed him bc of that (which, of couse, I wouldn’t wish on anyone, let alone him, that’s not the part that I think is karma). The part that feels like divine retribution for my grandma is that since they were never divorced, the government granted her the right to recive his pension as well as her own, as is the practice in both Spain and Portugal, I believe. So after all that she had to endure, at least she got monetary compensation in the end (which she saves, because like her father taught her, she doesn’t ever want to have to be dependsnt on anyone). This woman is so fucking strong, she’s 91 yrs old and in the last 5 years she’s broken 4 bones - every single time she gets upp, takes herself to the doctor, and even if her foot is broken she continues to walk on it because she says that the day she stops like everyone tells her to, will be the day that she dies. She herself says that she was born sith the damndest luck - that any time she watches a football game, her tesm looses, and resl life is the same - but, she was also born more stubborn than a damned mule, and that’s what serves her well. If she wants something, she ends up getting it, even if it’s out of sheer spite. I adore her❤️

    Was helping friends move to a new apartment. We loaded the truck, dropped off the first load at the curb and several of us started taking boxes and furniture into the new apartment.
    As we were unpacking boxes my friend's husband went out to bring in more furniture.
    Returned laughing. There were people looking over the furniture and discussing getting a truck to bring it home. They thought it was left outside for people to take.
    Friend's husband explained and they all had a good laugh.

    My grandpa went out with his friends shortly after grandma had their first child, he didn't come home for three days. It was late February, very cold, but he thought if he brought home and ice cream cone and she took it, everything would be fine. Yes, she took that cone, then she proceeded to bop him on his head with a rolling pin, knocking him out. Then she dragged him out onto the sun porch, which was a cold room in winter, lay him on the day bed, covered him with a few quilts, and left him. 3 days later he stumbled into the house and she says, "Oh, I thought you might be dead and was waiting for the dr.". This was in the early 1930s and doctors made house calls on rural homes. Grandpa was very well behaved from that day forward...lol She was a tiny terror, but she was my spirit animal.

    Our family has a rule when it comes to get togethers. 2 adults serve all the children their food. Than everyone gets their own food (eldest to youngest) we been doing it this way for decades. Its efficient! Well a family member middle aged got married and they wife always came over looking like something was stuck up her butt. She also always demanded her husband to bring her her food. Oh! I should also mention, we would put all the animals out side on the closed off porch with some food of their own so they didn't get in our way. Okay so i think it was the 3rd time that the woman came over. She obviously demanded her meal. (And i mean obviously if someone wants to get you some food that is absolutely fine! It was the demanding that made us all mad.) But yeahh so the husband looked embarrassed and went to go get her food. My grandma cut in and said, "no no no no i will get it for you hunny!" My grandma took her time making up the plate. Once she was done she took it, walked right passed the wife who was reaching out, went onto the porch and left the plate out there. The wife said, "uhm wheres my food?" My grandma said, "i put your food out where all the other [feamale dogs] are supposed to eat." And then walked away. The husband soon after divorced her and is now happily married! 😂❤

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE Grandma!! My husband and I had been married for about a year. One night he said, "Don't make pork chops anymore." Next night, "Don't make hamburgers any more." This nonsense complaining continued till he hit everything I made. I said if he didn't want to eat what I made he didn't have to. So for two weeks I made a single serving of food and sat and ate in front of him not having any food. I WON! After that he learned not to complain about my menu choice and cooking. Petty early in marriage = No complaining for a long time.
