The cold can get lost. I've got chilblains on my toes, my joints are frozen and I'm just fed up with existing in a dressing gown.

The gap down the side of the cooker can get lost. It's a pain to move and I can see at least 2 teaspoons amongst the detritus down there that needs cleaning.

People who don't pick up their dog poo can get lost. Seriously why is it in the middle of the footpath?

People who drop litter can get lost. They must be within arms reach of a bin several times a day and it is no more effort than dropping it out of a car window.

What do you want to tell to get lost?

The cold it affects my arthritis and my joints swell with the pain. My main moans beside the cold are fly tippers dropping off stuff for other people to have to shift. I hate people dropping litter they have no respect for where they live. The mess it makes how it affects wildlife or the environment. People who don't pick up and bag their dogs poo. People who pick up and bag poo then throw it up in trees it happens a lot in the woods here disgusting.
Parents who park outside school gates blocking the road why don't they just walk. They must realise that if emergency vehicles are called to the school they won't get access because of selfish lazy drivers.

Spiders can get lost. They’re the devil’s horsemen and their sole reason for existence is to terrify me. 👀

Also, the dogs that live out the back of me can get lost. I’m fed up of their barking at night. Several of my neighbours would also appreciate it if these dogs disappeared. How can ppl be so antisocial as to let their animals disturb others?

Agree Redhead they can all get lost

The mice that are getting into my bedroom from the empty, neglected bungalow I’m attached to. 😡😡😡

Polite requests to the absentee owners have fallen on deaf ears so the big guns are out now! EHO and Pest Control are on the case!

These adverts on GN , I don’t want to make mug cakes and I’m past the age to want to know about breast feeding.

OMG, my list will be so long!

Diabetes can F off. It has wrecked my younger brothers health and will send him to an early grave. I could literally take a cricket bat to it and beat it to a bloody pulp.

Early mornings can do one. I get up early to get myself and DGS ready for the school run. I HATE getting up early.

The chaos caused by DD and DGS in my house. It literally sends me crazy. I'd like to burn the place down and start afresh somewhere tiny on my own.

The cat tray. Actually only a 5 to 10 minute job. But I hate it.

Apart from obvious things like cancer, Putin etc, on a personal level my alopecia can get lost. It's ruined the last few years. It can hold hands with my severe anxiety and the pair of them can get well and truly lost.

I agree. I keep getting videos about IVF.

I would tell the crumbs that collect around the bread board to get lost.

Yes, these pop up, moving ads are a damned nuisance, so irritating. They can well and truly get lost.

Dust can get lost, too 😊

Currently I get ads showing Rafa Nadal advertising Kia cars - I don't mind those at all!

The local council here can get lost in double-quick time. They are planning to close the public loos 'to make savings'.

biglouis Fri 27-Jan-23 21:11:42

The people who cyber hacked Royal Mail can get lost! Ive had to swap my business to a more expensive courier and put up all my prices.

My next door neighbour can get lost and probably will one day as she has dementia.

People who park cars and leave the music on loud can get lost.

Those ads can get lost. So inappropriate.

The young man who bumped into me today and knocked me over can also get lost. He was staring at his phone and sort of lurched sideways. Oh yes, the lack of apology can also get lost.

The screen for the smart meter can get lost. Mr C is obsessed with it.

Grannybags Fri 27-Jan-23 21:14:58

Winter can get lost. I've had enough of it now

Hipsy Fri 27-Jan-23 21:23:45

My dog can get lost.
Why did she feel the need to roll in fox poo the very next day after a bath/

VioletSky Fri 27-Jan-23 21:29:38

Canned laughter on TV shows can get lost.

I only seem to laugh when the canned laughter doesn't go off and now I'm seriously worried about my sense of humour.

Also my phone can get lost, its too sensitive and takes me to the wrong threads lol

Yes!! Why are we getting adverts telling us to get onto mumsnet? My parenting days are over and I just enjoy grand parenting, eg spoiling grandkids and handing them back! I now don’t need to know about breastfeeding and pre eclampsia and other such matters, thank goodness. Even my children are past that stage! Who in the gransnet team thinks that we want this? 😠🙄

VioletSky Fri 27-Jan-23 22:01:46

I think they probably do use the mumsnet ads here too

They can have a get lost from me

I think my menopause has finally 'got lost' . Hooray,yipee and all other similar words. From summer 2003 to a couple of months ago my body was in a fight with itself !! Managed without HRT but very luckily hubbie was brilliant support.

BigBertha1 Fri 27-Jan-23 22:40:14

Me too with the dog poo on our footpath and the cold and my arthritis and my hands unable to even the up my shoe laces.

CanadianGran Fri 27-Jan-23 22:49:06

Yes, the ads can get lost. Do you think Mumsnetters are getting adds for orthopedic shoes and stair lifts?

HousePlantQueen Fri 27-Jan-23 22:58:37

Yes the pop up ads can get lost as can every bloody programme on Saturday night TV. We aren't all braying idiots who are entertained by bright lights, jangling bells, greedy contestants and moronic celebrities. And breathe.....and be thankful for Netflix that recognises that adults watch TV too. Oh and the additional two stone that I have been carrying for years and just won't leave....it can go too

Lizbethann55 Fri 27-Jan-23 23:12:04

Mess can get lost. I don't know where it comes from or what it wants with me, but it is like a demented stalker following me everywhere and knowing my every mood.
