July 23, 20187 yr Knox's story is a strong honorable mention all conference. The thought of her loading that beast into the car in the heat and defending it by saying a 6 yr old will play with it enough to improve his core strength ... too great

July 23, 20187 yr Like clockwork man. Like clockwork. She always comes home with a bunch of stuff, starting the conversation with, "I saved....". Last week she came home with this because it was on sale. I said that'd be great if our boys were 3 years old; they're 6 and 11. Her counter was that the 6 year-old needed core exercise. I told her crunches were free. Tone. You need to follow up on this story. Has the 11 yr old used it yet?

July 23, 20187 yr No, she definitely doesn't want another child. Our 6 year-old is that kid. You know. The one that gets a note home from the teacher EVERY, SINGLE day of the school year. So no. No more kids. The teeter-totter thing is sitting in the 2nd living room right next to the antique light fixture she purchased 6 months ago. That would be the one that's to go in the dining room; however, 3 of the 6 light casings are missing. On a related note, she went to IKEA Saturday. I asked her to buy me a small shelf to put the Echo Dot on in the bathroom so it and the cord are out of the way. She came home with a 36X24 in mirror that has a small glass shelf attached to the bottom. "It was cheaper to buy it that way," she said. All I wanted was a small shelf, to put on the wall, to hold something the size of an Echo. Now I've got a 24-inch glass shelf and a giant, unneeded mirror.

If you wanted a small shelf, you should have gone to Ikea and bought one yourself.... or, crazy idea, checked craigslist for a shelf that would work and get it yourself. telling your wife to buy what seems like a basic request at Ikea is just a disaster waiting to happen. hell, even if you told her something specific, like, Hey I need a desklamp that is no taller than 15 inches and wider than 8 inches..... she would probably buy the lamp..... AND a shelf to put that lamp on as well because "it needs to go somewhere when you arent using it on the desk" cant blame the wife for this one bud, its all you.

I hate fucking with those valves myself, much less trying to tell my wife how to do it. Someone could make an absolute mint if they developed a machine that would automatically add chemicals to your pool. It's a huge pain in the ass. Right now I'm too cheap to hire a pool guy, but I'm quickly getting over it.

We just had the Salvation Army out to take as much crap from the garage as possible. Wife went to all the trouble of sorting things and putting price tags on things and even got a permit for a garage sale. It rained that weekend and we never got motivated to attempt it again.
July 23, 20187 yr I feel like Pampered Chef invents kitchen tools for problems that doesn't exist, just so they can sell you the tool - like do you really need a special knife to cut an avocado, or clean the seeds out of a bell pepper? She'd go her friends parties and order all this crap. I finally got her to agree to sort through the kitchen drawers and cabinets and get rid of the stuff we don't use. Several hundred dollars worth of Pampered Chef stuff ended up on the counter.
July 23, 20187 yr I'm a dude, and once bought a cheese knife for $20. It doesn't work any better than a regular knife.

July 23, 20187 yr Anyone else's wife re-watching Dawson's Creek and then getting pissed when you don't want to watch it? No? Fuck Pacey btwI mentioned to my wife that he's in that Showtime series The Affair and now she's binge watching it because Pacey.So - my wife has finally caught up on The Affair and admitted she's watching it mainly because of "Pacey".Then I got this nugget:Wife: He's so 'Pacey' in this. I don't know what it is, but he doesn't just walk - he SAUNTERS.

Several hundred dollars worth of Pampered Chef stuff ended up on the counter. So I do almost all of the cooking at the house. But the wife can't turn down an invite to a Pampered Chef party. We have all manner of crap that we don't need. Nylon knives, chopper thing, something to breakup ground beef and sausage when browning. The best was when she brought home an egg separator thing and explained how helpful it will be. Of course, there was already two of those things in the kitchen utensil drawer that was never used. Got one of those avocado slicers as a Christmas gift from my MIL.
