Hi, there

Does it sound odd to use “next thing...” in this sentence?

“I already made you a cup of coffee and brought it over to you, now you want me to out sugar in it for you? Next thing you will be wanting me to hand-feed you”

Thank you!

Answer

Next thing sounds fine.  I think you have a typo in the sentence before it, the word out should be put, “put sugar”.

Answer

It sounds completely natural to me.
