We had pizza at my IL's, including MIL's mother who is 88. The pizza was sausage, which I don't like and picked off. My grandmother-in-law reached entirely the hell across my plate and harpooned a piece of my discarded sausage with her fork. In the middle of dinner. While I was eating.

Then when I was cutting my daughter'a second piece, goddamned if Grandma didn't PLUCK MY HALF EATEN, STILL IN PROGRESS SLICE FROM OFF MY PLATE AND EAT IT.

And then she put the crust back on my plate.

I just... Wtf wtf?

:?

I hate people touching my plate with their fork without asking first. I have food aggression. lol

Ultimately, I agree with this.

Even if I pick something off my plate, maybe I'm just eating out of order and saving all the sausage for last. I have weird eating habits, yo.

But at least he would ask if they were going to finish it before he'd grab it.

DH just asked me what I was laughing at.

I would have swatted her hand the first time around. Just because I take something off my pizza doesn't mean I'm not going to eat it. Back off granny!!!

LOL, somehow I completely missed this thread!

I want to criticize, but I'm can see myself being this WTF about life if I'm lucky enough to reach 88. My goal will be to annoy as many people as possible.

You, OTOH, had every right to stab her in the damn hand with your fork. "Oops! I thought we were spearing random objects!"
