Spoilt BratsMr Newton sighs, "ever known anyone so spoilt you would love to strangle? I lived with a Paris Hilton-a-like who complained about everything, stomped her feet and whinged till she got her way. There was a happy ending though: she had to drop out of uni due to becoming pregnant after a one night stand..."
Who's the spoiltest person you've met? Has karma come to bite them yet? Or did you in fact end up strangling them? Uncle B3ta (and the serious crimes squad) wants to know.

Bah humbugYou didn't let me be first so I'm going to squeeem and squeeem until I'm sick :-(
But I will tell you about my younger sister. Aged 30 now! I tend to end up in the middle of her tantrums, she fell out with our Mum last month. Her version goes something like this ...
YS: "Huh!"
Me: "Problem?" (What now???)
YS: "Mum is a pain in the arse? She won't do anything for me"
Me: "Do tell ..."
YS: "She wouldn't send me the application for for the OU course on Creative Writing, so I couldn't start this week like I wanted to - and now I can never do it and I've always wanted to!!!!!!!!!"
Me: "Sigh" wonders off wondering when my sister decided that creative writing was going to be this years thrill - she'd always been more scientific and sporty - lots of trekking round the world, working off shore as a surveyor, doing _proper_** rowing, triathlon, and was last heard of plotting doing one of those walk to the North Pole races.
Next day and I'm speaking to my Mum on the phone ...
Mum: "Your sister is in a snit with me again"
me: "Really? What could it possibly be?"
Mum: "Well she applied to OU for an application pack last week so she could do a CW course"
me: "Riiiiiiiight"
Mum: "So the pack arrived Saturday, and your sister asked me to send it on to her"
me: "So? I see no problem"
Mum: "Well yes ... she's in Angola on a ship. So she wanted me to scan the 12 page application form and email it to her"
em: "and ..."
Mum: "OU wanted the original by post on Monday ... and the course starts next week, she's not back from Angola until the middle of next month, and then she's off on holiday for 4 weeks"
me: "So ummm what did she say to that"
Mum: "Ranted on about how I never do anything for her ... wouldn't listen to the impossibility of the timing"
me: "Never mind she can do it next year"
Mum: "No need they run it twice a year"
me: "Ohhhhkay"
Last night ...
Me: "Hi sis"
YS: "Ohhhh I'm so fed up with Mum!"
Me: "Is that the front door? - I'll call you later"
