Wife was telling MIL directions tonight. MIL got lost. Wife “ I told her to take the first exit at the first roundabout and it’s right here.” Me that’s the second roundabout Wife I don’t count that first one Me .....
Wife wants to quit her $100k per yr job with incredible benefits that's given her everything she's ever asked for in order to take up a career crafting.
You should get divorced now so that you can get alimony based on her current salary instead of the nothing she’s about to be making.
Be a team player.. Her potential happiness is much more important than the impending bankruptcy it will cause.
But really, she is just pissed off at something and dreaming. She is not quitting. You should probably let her dream and just listen without being an asshole. I bet she will realize soon enough that she can’t quit
I'm trying, but as someone who works in education, I'm having an extremely difficult time being sympathetic.
My dream is basically Sam Jackson’s in Pulp Fiction. Just walk away from everything and become a nomad.
And I thought mine wanting to go from her $100k per year job to a $45k per year job because it’s close to the house and less stressful was bad...
Rewatching breaking bad. Do you think your BFF would be down with you if you took up Walt's business? Same circumstances...... Go.
My favorite part of Breaking Bad was when Walt stole Skyler’s engagement ring and replaced the diamond with a cubic zirconia
Update, two keys and two red fobs from amazon about $20 Keys cut at local locksmith for $3 Program both fobs and keys in like 10 minutes One set is now permanently in my work truck, so there is no way she can find it and lose it
Everyone hated Skylar b/c she wanted Walt to stop being a criminal and putting her and their son in the crosshairs of drug lords and murderers because it's a TV show and they wanted him to do more crazy shit, I can almost guarantee that no wife or gf of anyone on this board would be supportive of them if they did the shit he did.
The best thing I ever did was get a personal phone after using my company issued phone as personal phone for a few years. I can literally go hours unplugged on the weekends
Was watching Jeopardy and she interrupts, “So what exactly happened to those kids who are stuck in Thailand?”. I explain they’re stuck in a cave, etc. Her response: “What’s a cave? Like a hole in the ground?”
I'll take "what every girl does after multiple attempts at anal if you tell them you love them" for $500, Alex
Went out for a bite at a local gastropub. Ordered a Ballast Point Sculpin and she got a glass of wine (rare for her). Me: What looks good to you? Her: The meatloaf or maybe the carne asada tacos. But I really shouldn't. Me: Order what you want, it's practically a holiday anyway. You can work it off later. (wink) Waitress comes to take our order and she gets the salad with grilled shrimp. On the way home, I tell her that I need to stop at the grocery store to pick up a couple racks of ribs for tomorrow to take to her sister's house. I'm picking out my ribs, she comes over with a grass fed ribeye in her hand that was in the manager's special bin. "It's 30% off and I'm still hungry, will you cook it for me?" That meat probably made her happier than mine would have.
Not wife or girlfriend but I went to training this week with some co-workers from all over the US and there was a girl that works at one of our NY locations that was talking to our group of 10 people at dinner. We are all just casually eating/bsing and we get to the topic of vacations. Someone brings up how he's always wanted to visit Alaska. Said girl from earlier pipes up how she has always wanted to visit the the SW US. I said you mean northern US? She's like no, the island of Alaska of the SW coast. This mid 30s woman thought Alaska was an island off of the SW United States. We all just stopped eating and stared at her for about a minute in silence. Finally one guy pulls out his phone and corrects her and holy shit was she embarrassed. It baffles me that someone has gone through life thinking that.
My 3.5 year old son can point it out on a globe. I’ve seen a few posts like this so when he was putting his puzzle together and referred to Alaska as being by Hawaii I had to correct it immediately.
Those grade school maps with Hawaii and Alaska next to each other south of the Continental U.S. doesn’t help this but you’d think this gets corrected at some point before, I don’t know, graduating high school?
Wife told her brother and I that we needed 225 euro each to pay for this tour we were taking. Hand the guy the cash afterwards and he just gives me shitty look and says “come on!” Me to wife: what was the total again? Wife: 550 Me: good thing I have another 100 on me. Wife: why? Me: What is 225 + 225? Wife: Sorry...whatever, don’t be a smartass!
