I just relayed this information to The Queen of Whataboutery who immediately went on the defensive and said that it's "because men can't multi-task"... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bernardblack Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Literally 3 minutes into the first episode of the capture and shes asking what's going on. I've seen precisely as much as you have so why not shut up and see what happens. “Oh who’s he?”“Well this is the first time we’ve seen him so how am I supposed to know?!”Rage 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Starting to think Mrs B would have no fucking idea how to function as an adult without me. Todays meltdowns included going to 4 different shops before finally choosong and ordering a new rug then about ten minutes later launching into some sort of regret frenzy asking me "did we get the right one? What if it doesnt go" etc etc.Fucking hell. Firstly, can we wait till it fucking arrives to make the decision if it goes or not. Secondly, if it doesn't, we will send it back as per standard shopping practice. Fucking hell. A fucking mini crisis out of everything. And while im at it, lengthy procrastination and seeking advice from me over what birthday card to get her brother..... I dont give a f**k is a phrase thrown about too easily these days. But I 100% DO NOT GIVE A FUCKING f**k what birthday card you buy. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philpy Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Spent nearly half an hour looking for her phone, which she hadn't taken out with her when we went to the shops. I decided to go and look in the car, and was told I was wasting my time as it wasn't there. Guess what I found under her seat??. Yep. The phone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 The subject of an old chocolate selection box came up tonight (Terry's Neopolitans, for what it's worth). BigFatTabbyWife asks what was in it, so I said it was half milk, half dark chocolate, with different flavours and the dark ones were surprisingly nice."Uhuh, uhuh, so was there any dark chocolate in it?""My last sentence was literally about that""No it wasn't"Impotently simmering away to myself right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanius Mullarkey Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 The wife has been moaning recently about having no data left on her phone so she can’t rot her brain on Shitebook when not in the house. After a few days I asked her if her mobile data was switched on. Checked her settings. It’s off. ”Aye well thats been off since I got the phone” She’s had the phone 4 years, been on a contract paying for data and hasn’t used a single fucking kilobyte. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My extra decade on Earth over Bairnardo has taught me to never get involved or express an opinion on rugs. When Mrs says “that bedroom rug is wrecked” I know not to point out that it’s about 6 months old and looks just as it fucking did when it came out of the wrapping. Instead I resign myself to the fact three or four potential replacement rugs will arrive the next day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Would it disturb the lighthearted tone of this thread to include "be a narcissistic alcoholic with anger issues" I hope not because it's fucking infuriating. In the plus side, due to a difference of opinion on the price of admission to the planetarium, I have an unscheduled pub night. Every cloud etc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
