🎩Laird of the Manor🎩

I hate my family but how dare they hate me. I hurt my family but how dare they hurt me. I damage my family but how dare they cut me off. I reveal personal information about my family but how dare they remain silent. I hurt my dying grandparents but how dare my family be upset

@ClittBeastwood @machpodfann Dear God! 🤦🏻‍♂️

@LairdOfThManor @machpodfann I'll never excape @LairdOfThManor, our little walking lyeberry.

A small public service announcement from the Department of Things That You Should Know… It has not “peeked” your interest. Nor has it “peaked” your interest. …It has piqued your interest. You are not “phased” by something. You are fazed by it. If you’ve had a long day, you are weary. If you suspect someone is an idiot, you are wary. It is “due course”, not “do course”. “Per se”, not “per say”. And while we’re here, it’s “could have”, not “could of”, but that particular battle may already be lost. Thank you for your attention during this brief outbreak of grammatical housekeeping. This has been a @LairdofthManor announcement.🎩💙

Ok… who’s responsible for this? I want names… 🚢

@XRPofAllTrades In Australia its ‘yeah-nah’… meaning No. and ‘nah-yeah’… meaning Yes.

@LairdOfThManor It's not "nar", it's "no"

@LulusMom1961 Strangely enough I actually don’t mind y’all. Go figure!🤷🏻‍♂️

@LairdOfThManor I'm throwing one in for good measure, y'all!

@whatzitsgalore @rymel01 Leeched is the correct spelling, but when used in a sentence referring to the PM, it needs to be spelled incorrectly for authenticity.

@LairdOfThManor @rymel01 leach? 😲

@bronnycee @rymel01 Oh dear lord!

@LairdOfThManor @rymel01 Oh come now my dear Laird our Prime Minister often speaks of his “Gubment” and the people of “Ustraya”.

@jaquie_f @MonPetitChou11 @yaya_gaga_ooo Oh hell no!

@MonPetitChou11 @LairdOfThManor @yaya_gaga_ooo All of a sudden, not all the sudden

@polarbear20k Omg!

@LairdOfThManor I'd do it, and 'innocently' say something that sets you off. That reminds me - I was in Walmart one day, and some girl was on a cell phone - not speakerphone. She was shocked by something the other person said, and blurted out "What do you mean, it'd fit in my butt?"

I am not (and I cannot stress this enough) a person you should put on speakerphone. I possess neither the restraint, decorum, nor basic survival instincts required for such an arrangement. If you place me on speakerphone without warning, whatever follows is entirely between you, your conscience, and the horrified strangers now listening. …@PinocchPrincess & @Ninney2021 will attest to the accuracy of this statement. 🎩

@LouiseHowa81118 @MargaretAlAllen Rude!

@MargaretAlAllen @LairdOfThManor You surprise me with your gullibility As Ever. You don’t really think our Laird presents his real self to us do you. This impossible paragon of virtue? Personally I’m shocked his Lady is still hanging in there.

@mrswoman1 Wow!

@LairdOfThManor Thankyou, LotM, you're grammar lesson is not to soon - you should of spoke up before (😁)

@p_watkins1 Heaven help me. 🤦🏻‍♂️

@LairdOfThManor Grate work M'Laird, souper job, you should be a Secertary 😜

@Tedster23529258 My brain just exploded

@LairdOfThManor I bidded for that at an auction. Should of bidded more….😬

@LairdOfThManor These are excellent pacific examples of common mistakes. I learned.😍😍

@LairdOfThManor Hand it over, you delinquent!

Oh dear lord!…🤦🏻‍♂️

@lordclifton2 …moot….MOOT!

@LairdOfThManor It’s probably a mute point, but you deserve to be well renumerated for this post.

@ElizabethHarco6 @MartsNanny Oy vey!

@MartsNanny @LairdOfThManor I can Sea where you are going there.🤣

@ttb_backagain 😂😂😂

@LairdOfThManor I've been slung out of far better places you know.😈

@LairdOfThManor Your being very pacific. *runs for the hills 🤣🤣

@documentpack No. Definitely not!

@LairdOfThManor Can these rules be safely included in a conversation with the wife?

5 Social boundary rules I wish I’d learned sooner… 1. The Three-Second Pause… When someone asks you for a favour you have absolutely no desire to do, don’t answer immediately. Pause for three seconds. It gives the impression you’re carefully considering the request rather than searching for the politest way to say, “Good Lord, no.” 2. The No-Excuse Rule… If you’re declining an invitation, resist the urge to provide a detailed explanation. “I can’t make it, but thank you for thinking of me” is perfectly sufficient. The more details you provide, the more opportunities people have to turn your refusal into a group problem-solving exercise. 3. The Mirror Method… When someone pushes a boundary, calmly repeat back what they’re actually asking. “Just so I understand correctly, you’d like me to put my priorities aside to accommodate yours?” It’s remarkable how often people hear themselves properly for the first time. 4. The Physical Exit Strategy… If someone is monopolising your time, start moving before you start explaining. Stand up. Gather your things. Angle yourself towards the door. Most people understand body language far better than they understand hints. 5. The Complete Sentence… “No” is a complete sentence. Not a rough draft. Not an opening bid. Not the beginning of a negotiation. Just a sentence. A surprisingly useful one, as it happens.🎩💙
