    I would have never known if she wouldn’t have told me. I was posting about it on here and she saw me posting the receipt and read my posts about it and laughed. She thinks it’s hilarious because it was a dumb mistake. Neither of us even eat donuts.

    It’s actually pretty hard. My aunt’s family owned a bakery and I worked there in the off season and summers in hs. It’s why I don’t eat donuts because making them the old fashioned way in a pit of grease with wooden sticks and a handheld glazer sucks ass and you just smell like donuts all the time. Decorating cakes, cookies, donuts is pretty hard. I’m not saying these are elite or anything but I ain’t hating on them. $75 my ass tho

    Yeah it’s because it’s the River Oaks and they do custom ones. That’s his favorite place to get donuts on the weekend and it’s close to our place but you could have gotten a bunch of Voodoo donuts that are way better for less or maybe the same. That’s the first donut place we would take him to after soccer practice so it’s kinda of a nostalgia thing. I don’t like them and just get a kolache and a coffee

    We have a "nice" donut shop that we go to and shit is such a rip off. Dude like Dunkin just has much for like 1/10th of the cost

    It’s like I said in my original post how that would have bought a ton of donuts from Shipley’s and it’s not like the expensive ones were just astronomically better. It’s a local owned business that’s a staple here and they do a good job but it’s not like Voodoo that are crazy donuts.

    My wife apparently has this thing where the time between 1130 and 1200 doesn’t exist, so anything that involves leaving around 1200-1230 is going to be late. Which normally just ends with her being late to things that start in the early afternoon but yesterday ended with me driving 50 minutes round trip to go pick up a FB marketplace purchase.

    . I was taking my wife and her mother to dinner tonight. We all met at the restaurant. My wife was running late so I was talking to her mother for 5-10 minutes. Wife walks in and told me I need to come outside immediately. I walk outside and in this tight small and shitty parking lot at this downtown restaurant she clipped a fucking cop car as she tried to park. I had already had a few beers and wasn't super keen to maneuver her car out of the spot to inspect the damage with the cop standing there. Me and the cop talked her thru backing up and thankfully there was no damage to his car and he just let it go.

    This was also accident #4 in the last 2 years.

    I think ive come to the point i actively hate my MiL. My wife is a bit stress-prone and the way she keeps feeding her stuff to worry about that doesnt make any sense at all makes managing that like a daily commitment of a couple of hours. Given that I have 2 young children I really dont appreciate having to spend multiple hours a day handling fucking bullshit worries about imaginary stuff.

    Sorry for basically just ragetyping this message and bothering yall with this

    File this under stupid things husbands do:

    Metallica is in Tampa this weekend. I'm not as in to them as I was when I was younger and playing in bands, but they still hold a lot of nostalgia value for me and I'm trying to make a point to see bands I like that I've never seen before they stop playing for good. Anyway, I bought tickets when they went on sale like 6 months ago for the night 2 show they're playing bc I like more of the songs on their night 2 set list. Mrs. Scorpio asked that I get night 1 instead because she would rather see the Limp Bizkit opening act than Pantera and Suicidal Tendencies who open night 2. I wasn't really passionate either way, so I acquiesced and bought tickets for tonight and sold my Sunday tickets on Stub Hub a couple months ago. Or so I thought...

    I log in to Ticketmaster this morning to transfer the tickets for tonight to my phone wallet and notice it says "2-day ticket." I thought "hmm, that's weird" and do some digging only to find out that yes, I had indeed unintentionally purchased the 2-day ticket vs just the single night. After facepalming myself, I just kind of laughed thinking that "hey I wanted to see the night 2 show anyway." But then I remembered the tickets I sold and went back to see if I had made the same mistake for those as well. Turns out that not only did I buy the 2-day tickets during my first purchase, but I sold them at the price point of a single day ticket, basically at half of face value. Not only that, those tickets were in seats I would have much rather sat in. So between that and the uncertainty of what I'll be able to get for my extra tickets on Sunday, I will have basically lit anywhere between $600-$1500 on fire.

    I saw them on Tuesday in Atlanta. It was a really good show. I’m not a fan of Suicidal Tendencies or Pantera and don’t know any of their music. So I didn’t really get into their performances. I would have much rather seen Limp Bizkit since I’ve at least heard some of their music.

    Same type of situation here except my wife hates her mother as well. There has been almost weekly drama from dear MIL for as long as we have been married but my wife finally realized last week that she doesn't need the shit anymore and blocked her mother. There is a LONG history behind all of this but it was a good decision on her part. This is not at all a suggestion, just feeling your pain.

    Wife went to the store at lunch time and texted if I needed anything and I said no and when she got home after work she didn’t pick up a little treat for me at the store and what is even the point of being married.

    Making potato salad

    Me: “oh don’t cut the golden potatoes before boiling they’ll be too soft”
    Her: *cuts them anyways and boils them*
    Her, 30 minutes later: “the potatoes are too soft”

    Later on

    Me: “Don’t pour pickle juice in there”
    Her: *pours pickle juice anyways*
    Her, 30 minutes later: “It tastes too much like pickles.”
