So, last night, I was at a friend's house when she made some food.  She wouldn't let me eat until I did some of the dishes.  I was getting a ride soon, and she know that.  After an hour or so, when I realized my ride was going to be late, I did some of the dishes and ate.  My ride came soon after and I went home.  Then, this morning, said friend's mom comes home and storms around and yells at her because the house is messy.  I wake up to a text message that says "I fucking hate you" and my friend continues to go on about how I'm so insanely lazy and I never clean and I'm not allowed back into the house until I learn how to clean and that it's basically my fault her mom flipped her shit.  So, what do you think?  Am I in the wrong, or is this just a case of a bitch being a bitch?

the latter. if one invites a guest into one's home one should not expect the guest to clean things up.

Never stressed
on the other hand you clearly suck at washing dishes. i was not aware such a thing was possible, so you have that much going for you.

Yeah, you are pretty lazy, but it's completely unreasonable to ask a guest to do any housework. Your 'friend' is in the wrong here.

It sounds like your "friend" is trying to find a way to make it so you won't want to come over there again, and the whole "Do the dishes >:-[!" and "you're lazy" sounds like a convenient excuse.  She obviously doesn't have the courage to tell you to stay away, or that she doesn't care for your company...  for whatever reason.

Her mom got angry at her because of some dishes? Did you turn the whole kitchen upside down?
Anyways, as the others have said already: To ask guests to do housework isn`t polite at all. It`s nice, if they assist you on their own. You might want to rethink your relation, if they just sit around watching you cleaning everything up.
But asking them to do so and even render it a condition for getting food...just ignore her and see how she reacts in the next days. If you`re somehow important to her, she`ll apologize. If you`re not, you spared your nerves and there`s one false friend less in your life.

To be fair, her other friend and I are over there quite a bit.  Normally, I wouldn't have a problem with doing dishes, but it was that on top of the fact that she would NOT let me eat unless I did them, and I was getting a ride soon (or so I thought) and wanted to eat before I left.   

But anyway, she started talking to me without getting really pissed off, so everything should be cool.

It's hard for me to form an opinion that's too specific to this situation, since I don't know you or them.  I personally break ties with anyone and everyone who does things that I think are retarded, since it just tells me that we are not living in the same universe.  Their response sounds retarded, so I would just not talk to them anymore.

But my main problem is that I CAN'T break ties, and in this situation I wouldn't even want to.  I'm not one to altogether stop talking to people because they piss me off sometimes.

I am !  Try it, it's awesome.

I just remind myself that I would never do that to them, and if I am capable of extending that courtesy to them, then it's possible for someone else to extend that courtesy to me, and I expect it.

My entire 'friend' list comprises me, myself, and I.  People suck, and the good ones are so rare that it isn't worth the hassle.  Mind you, I've also always liked my own company, so whatever.

You all seem to be quite a bit more antisocial than I.  Thanks for the advice, but we seem to have different views on friends.

You need relationships with other humans to keep you grounded in reality. I hate people as much as the next guy, but I need people to say "look, this is how it is".

Plus, as Disney channel as it sounds, friends are fun.

I concede that I may not be the best person to give advice on relationships.  I have almost no problem completely writing someone off forever.  I do it often.

I just wrote you off.

Seriously though, I know that it's not a good way to keep friends, but I just have a hard time finding people who meet my standards.  They really aren't that high, god knows I'm far from perfect.  They're really more specific to the basic level of caring and consideration one displays for those around them.  There seems to be an epidemic of people who are totally inconsiderate to others.  They have no problem bitching up a storm when someone is inconsiderate to them, but their mind never even considers the feelings of others when the tables are turned.  I think that I get it a little worse than some people because I know so many addicts, though.

Most of mine were written of on the basis that their idea of having fun always involved pubs, and copious amounts of alcohol.  I'd always get asked out, and when I'd ask what we were going to do, I'd always get "going to the [insert pub name here]."  Loss of interest quickly followed.  Even when I did go, I seemed to be the only one there to socialise, and enjoy a drink while I'm there.  They were more targeted toward drink, drink, drink, drink, drink.  Oh, that and constantly having sex with their phones, constantly fiddling with fucking text messages.  Hello?  How rude is that when I'm trying to hold a conversation?  It's almost epidemic in England.

Da hell wid you :)
I know what you mean quietus. Most of my childhood and teenage friends I lost contact with mainly because they just wanted to hang around streets like a chav and just generally be a dickhead. The good thing about growing up is that the people you don't really like, will, in the end dissapear from your life completely.

I know what you mean about the pub thing. I see it all the time when I go to pubs and nightclubs. You see them there specifically to get completely rat arsed. Luckily I don't have friends who do this. I seem to only have about 2 friends that actually go to pubs to have a good time. The rest, like you said fuck around with their phone like their life depends on it. accessing facebook via it or whatnot and talking waaay too loudly just so everyone hears them.

Me and the "good" friends do go to pubs quite ocasionally because I enjoy their company specifically. The other anoying people just talk about boring shit like school. I friggin left school 6 years ago, "what the heck are you talking about school for, grow up". I do like to have 3, 4, possibly 5 pints then I'm in a very good mood. It depends who your getting drunk with of course. Me and this "good friend" are in the process of chatting up this nice young bar lady. It seems to be going down well :).

Servin' you realness!!
I'm not sure if I've had to write off too many people over alcohol and/or cell phone rudeness, because I don't really get that close enough to those peeps to begin with.  I used to go to clubs alot when I was in my twenties, esp the first half.  But as I got older, it kinda got BORING.  I never did care for the drink very much, and it has always annoyed me how pervasive alcohol is in our culture.  I could announce that I was having a large gathering - like a wedding perhaps - and get 100 people to commit to coming.  If I then turned around and announced that it was an alcohol-free event, I doubt more than 25% of the people who committed to coming would actually show up.  These same people who are completely incapable of fathoming any recreation without alcohol are also in total denial of any addiction to it, psychological or otherwise.  Besides, take it from me guys, there is nothing less attractive than a drunk man.  I don't care if he's physically hotter than hell, slurring out stupid shit could dry up any cooch like the sahara desert.  gah (yes I said that). 
And I can't tell you how hard it is for me to understand this shit with the cell phones.  It goes back to what I was saying before about people's minds not imagining other people's feelings.  There's a complete lack of empathy for how it affects others when one ignores their company in favor of conversing about trivial crap with someone who isn't even present.  One of these days I'm going to just snap and attack one of these rude people and tell them - "Nobody likes listening to one half of someone else's conversation!  It's irritating!"  I also don't understand the constant texting.  People seem to not realize that texting is a step BACKWARDS in efficiency.  They'll gladly take 20 mins to communicate info that would have taken 30 secs of good 'ol telephone.  It's true that texting comes in handy in certain situations where one may not be able to speak out loud, but people don't reserve texting for those situations.  I once saw 3 girls walking through the mall together, and they were all barking away on their cell phones.  I think it's strange and sad that people will get together to go do something fun but not even talk to each other the whole time. Half of the time, people aren't even talking about anything anyways - they're just blurbing out retarded irrelevant shit that's completely uninteresting and has nothing to do with anything.  When someone calls me up and starts telling me about something dumb, I have to say something like "...and your point is....?" which makes me look like a total bitch. 
Yeah, OK, I'm ranting now.  90% of the population consists of stupid assholes.  I don't know why, and I don't know what to do about it, but it's true.  Fuck.

mm.. yea I can't see the appeal either of pointless phone calls taht have no constructive element whatsoever. The youth of today is in a horrible state [god I sound old !]
I only like to drink to the point of being in control of what I say and physically do. Not denying of course that I have got totally wasted before. But this was when I was about 19 or 20 when you don't really know your limit.

What really used to irritate me is when these dumbasses (particularly young girls) would call ME boring ! just because I didn't indulge in their useless talk about drivvle. I wish I had said to them, "You are the most boring person on the planet missy".
