Stupid shit your wife/girlfriend does...

On containers like this my wife will peel back the seal under the lid about halfway and just leave it that way.

 

My wife does that with all containers she thinks it helps w the freshness

 

I bet her coat is shiny as hell though

 

My wife frequently doesn't put lids all the way on or barely at all bc she "was in a hurry"

like how fucking long does it take?

 

Daisy sour cream has a statement on their foil seal that tells you to remove it completely.

 

I've almost dropped so many containers, bottles and jars over the years

 

nothing like having drunken munchies and shaking carton for my midnight captn crunch and getting milk all over me/rest of kitchen

 

My wife puts the jelly lid on the jar with absolutely no turning. Keeps me on my toes

 

How often does it end up on the bed & nightstand?

 

My wife does this with everything. I’ve posted about it before itt and pics of the aftermath. I’ll reach for the pickles and boom, jar drops off pulling them out of the fridge. I’ve just made a habit of grabbing everything by the jar instead of the lid because it’s easier than asking her a thousand times to put the lid on tight.

 

ex did this with enchiladas sauce. I shook it without holding lid. Flew off and spewed, not on me. But onto her favorite sweatshirt and shoes.

all my fault obviously

 

Wife and her friend are supposed to be going 'garage saleing" this morning in leander/cedar park (an hour from our house)

Wife just now got in the shower to start getting ready to go

 

Not sure why you are complaining. The later she is, the less useless shit she’s gonna bring home.

 

Where was I complaining?

 

Maybe stop grabbing things by the lid you idiots.

 

My wife always likes to time things so she sleeps in to the point where we can maybe rush out of the house at the last minute but not leave any time for me to shower / get ready myself

 

Flew a little too close to the sun today wrt my don't ask, don't tell expenditure system. Wife bought what was described as a cheap headboard to connect to our metal bedframe last year. Some dudes from west elm showed up to deliver what I thought was some kind of add on. A few installation issues later I've learned that it was a $1,000 headboard and the new part is apparently a custom bed that attaches to it

 

Heavy duty bed you say?

Gotta spend money to make money I guess.

 

Same. Wife does this often

I'm around way ahead of her if there's plans, however she will spring things last minute that she wants to do. Complains that she's waiting for me. I slow down and move at her normal pace. She doesn't find this amusing.

 

My wife is a competent, safe, confident driver like all the time. Honestly a safer driver than me. Unless she’s in an unfamiliar car on an unfamiliar road, and then she locks up like a 15 year old with a learners permit. It’s really bizarre. So going car shopping today got heated a few times.

 

My wife is a terrible car shopper, she gets locked in on the first nice one she drives and the salesman can see it

 

This and there is no sleeping on it, seeing what another dealer can offer, etc. “car shopping” means she’s driving something new off the lot today.

 

We looked at 6 cars at five dealers today, and another one two weeks ago. Got the last one. Her heart was set on the third one since it was her favorite color but I don’t fit in a Honda Jazz/Fit; basically if I was in a front in collision my knee would enter the dashboard.

 

I bet she hates spending money too doesn't she

 

She does yes.

 

Fuck you

 

Let me know if I can help, I'll make sure you get a decent deal

 

bizarro world

 

I read it as the clit at first, damn I am such a pervert

No ragrets though

 

Does your wife work?

 

Yea

 

Then I got nothing. Godspeed to you my friend. Amazon packages show up to my house daily and our toddler’s bedroom furniture almost made my head explode when I went to pick it up and saw the price. But my wife works really hard and makes more money than me, so I just smile and tried to look at the positive.

 

Don’t diss the sugar momma who pays for your suits

 

I work from home 90% of the time, and my wife has her own small business that she goes to, so I take the kids almost every day since their school is the opposite direction from my wife's office.

This morning, my wife offers to take them because she had an appointment. Great. I can get to the gym 45 minutes earlier than normal. I park at the gym, and the school is calling. "How does one of my kids already have a problem?", I wonder. It is my wife calling to inform me that she has locked her purse and cell phone in the car and needs me to come up there to bring the spare keys. She has that passive lock turned on where her Tahoe automatically locks and it annoys the hell out of me. Since her phone was right next to the keys, it interfered with the key fob's signal and locked it when she walked away.

So me getting to the gym 45 minutes earlier than normal turned into me getting to the gym 45 minutes later than I usually do. Pretty sure 90% of my contributions to this thread have been my wife's automotive related incidents.

 

If I was 45 minutes late for something in the morning, I'd end up being late to work.

 

Wasn’t sure if to throw this in the poly thread or this one since it’s both me and the gf participating in giving the impression to MLS we have an unidentified bedwetter.

 

If you double down after me knowing it's not accurate and there is wet bed when I get home......just put me in a straight jacket now I guess

 

What does she say when asked? That's an interesting one.

I will say that Trader Joe's the lids seemingly never fit back on well - I don't know if that's a marketing strategy to make everyone blow through product but it's certainly noticeable.

Also you have to account for the nails situation in a bunch of instances.

 

I haven’t noticed their jars but I’ve been onto Trader Joes about this for awhile now. Almost nothing they sell has reclosable packaging. Sure there is some cost savings there but I’m with you it’s a deeper conspiracy to make their stuff go bad/you eat it faster.

 

Not mine, my wife’s friend booked a week long spring break family ski vacation…except she booked it the week before her two kids spring break. Kids are getting two weeks of spring break

 

That’s awesome and not stupid

 

If my wife ever wasted an entire week of someone else taking care of these little dragons, we're going to war

 

I think your wife’s friend may work for me.

 

KD?

 

that's something I would do. It's quite an adjustment when your kid starts kindergarten and all of a sudden you have to clear any trips with their schedule.

 

BR, so no.

 

Meh, we never did that until they hit high school. They were “educational” trips.

 

we pull him out all the time, but they only give you 10 excused ones in Alabama so you got to be creative about it.
