If I hear my name being screamed and find her pointing at a wall floor or corner somewhere at something she doesn't want to kill, she shouts BLUE JOB! BLUE JOB!!!

I hear " a nice home cooked meal" a lot

Wtf does that mean?

The restaurant has a nice oven/stove/ chef.

So home cooked is healthier? Hardly babe. I grew up with Germans. Everything dough and fried. Id let you ask them for yourself babe, but theyre all DEAD

Well if you've been married to her for 20 years, but only been with her for 10, she must go out for long periods of time - no wonder she thinks you might get thirsty!

Hell, mine won't even order pizza!

I couldnt tell you how much a power bill, water bill, electricity bill is, never made a Dr appointment

I just show up with a discernable heartbeat.

She does all those things so that I can focus on Global Warming, World Peace, and potential asteroid strikes

The words I feared most that I have with my wife
Me: " I'm going ( hunting, to the range, etc.)
Her " Whatever"
Me: What's bugging you?"
Her"" NOTHING!"

I saw a sign outside the local community centre. It said "ESL for Women". I just about died laughing. I always suspected they spoke a different language and there was the proof.

Her, "Do you want to clean the stove please?"
Me, "No not really."

Her, "I told you 2 weeks ago about..."
Me, "Was I looking at you?"
her, "Yes"
me, "Did I respond to you?"
her, "Yes"
me, "Did I have my headphones on?"
her, ""

Between 0530-0600:
"Hey hun does your morning alarm need to go off 5 times because you hit snooze?" "Yes, that's how I wake up"

Between 0645-0700:
Next morning she has the day off, I get out of bed. "You pulled the covers off me and woke me up!!"

Wife comes out of the garage with a broom. I ask where's she's flying off too.

Wife bought new vacuum cleaner and comments how dirty the rug was. I said you should have used the old one more often.

My wife, yesterday: 'what is cross threaded?'

After I noticed the light fixture over the dining room table was about falling apart, ready to drop onto table. She had taken it apart to clean, and when she had trouble putting the little nut on the threaded pipe....she grabbed ny 12" pump pliers and made it go on. Absolutely mangled everything. I gotta lock up my tools now.

Mine used to do the "where do we eat?" thing too...

After 5 suggestions and refusals, I'll pull over and just look at her till she makes up her mind.


I figured out the solution though!!!! Now I ask her "Honey, we're going somewhere awesome for dinner tonight!!! Can you guess where???"


Whatever the first thing out of her mouth is, "Dang!! Good guess!!" and then that's where we go. Works like a charm.

You got that right. All 4 of my daughters were using that trick on me before they were 10 years old, each one. And i dont think they learned it from there mother either,they are just hard wired for it.

Hope none of them ever read this

When my ex would start to get wound up over some imaginary transgression I had committed, I would just look her in the eye and say ' you know what your problem is? You need to calm down and avoid the train wreck.

It sure sped things up.
