Should have gone with an au pair instead.

Somehow my friend convinced his wife to hire a smoking hot au pair. He's not the type to fool around on his wife, but the au pair is dating one of his 40 yr old friends so he gets to hear all about it and go to bed with blue balls every night.

I need better friends.

Good thing your neighbor is handy. He will have that fixed right up.

Recently was at a funeral and was talking to a distant cousin about how we’re having child #2 soon and he started telling us about au pairs and how it was a life savor for his wife and that it’s only $200/week plus room/board which is cheaper than daycare for two kids.  We didn’t get more than 3 feet away from him when my wife shot down the idea and said “in your dreams.”

We’re going to need some more details on this. Like a safety moment.  We toast frozen waffles every day at my house so need to know what to look out for.  Hidden dangers and such.

Wife: "Bad weather is coming in! We need to prepare."

Me: Makes sure everything's charged, gets gas for the chainsaw/generator, makes sure there are batteries for flashlights, ties down everything outside that could blow away

my money is on putting a towel over the toaster to "block the smell" of the frozen waffles,  or some such nonsense.

You actually do all of that?

You should be prepared for chaos even if there's no bad weather coming.   It's called being a functional adult.

Same, but I've run it a bunch this winter so I wanted to be sure. 

Off topic CSB: I happened to be in Midland when the Hurricane Rita evacuation panic started in Houston.  I stopped at Home Depot on the way to the airport and picked up a chainsaw and some other stuff. Now the airlines won’t let you bring fingernail clippers on the plane but a chainsaw - no problem. /CSB

I just pretend to do all that shit and drink beer in the garage

Apparently I drink water too loud and am an asshole because I should swallow quieter. 

I read on reddit that I should tilt my head back to reduce noise.  This has now been suggested as the default method for my water consumption. 

Yup. Why don't you?
No trees around my house...i guess i make sure the snowblower is full of gas. Should probably check the flashlight batteries

we bought a new wall clock.  it only has 2 hands - hour and minutes.  i let her set the time and put it on the wall.

 

"honey, this clock is broken.  it doesnt work"

"what do you mean?"

"the hands arent moving"

Its an oven, not like the ones that spring the bread out when it's done. She thought it was too hot so she used a bunch of paper towels, which touched the heating element.......

My wife bought a non working clock a couple of years ago because it was the last one the store had.  It's hanging in my living room.

I hope if you are ever in the room with your wife and she asks what time it is, you tell her the time on the wall clock.

I did do this for over a year until she realized what I was doing and stopped asking me.

Hadn't considered this as a remedy to the wife problem. Good looking out, man.

This reminded me of the ex-cunt.  She decided I was the problem so she bought "Men are from Mars: Wives are cunts" or something like that and told me I needed to read it.

Two weeks later, book is sitting exactly where she left it for me.  She takes it for a few days then comes back

I have at least 2 of these in our living room. The reason they don’t work is because they need batteries. Same as they have needed for the last 5 years but that is asking too much.

If I had a broken clock for every broken clock we own, one of them might actually have the correct time.

The dude who sits at the next desk at work has the loudest swallow noise I have ever heard in my life.  No joke.  If the office is quiet enough, I have seen a guy 25 feet away turn his head and try to figure out what he just heard.  I'd really like to punch the dude in the throat.

That would just make the swallowing louder.

Gonna need a count there Mitch. Details, it's where the devil hides.

Over/under has been set at 19. Let the betting begin.

Flew back to Phoenix last night from a quick ski trip.  As we normally do, she waits for the bags/skis in baggage claim, and I go get the car from the economy parking lot and park it in the short term parking above the terminal to load the gear.  

There are two banks of elevators that serve the garage/terminal (east and west).  To make things easier, I call her to see which carousel the bags came out so I can park closest to the elevator that is closest to the carousel (especially since the game just kicked off).

Directionally Challenged: "Got the skis.  They came out on carousel 6."

Me: "Is that closer to the east or west elevators?"

DC: "I don't know. You know I am bad with directions."

M:  "Is that closer to the D or C gates?"

DC:  "I have no idea."

M:  "The signage over the exit doors out to the pickup tells you if it's the north or south curb.  Use that."

DC:  "The south curb is on my left."

M:  "Sigh."

Well you're an asshole anyway, so....

There isn’t a female in Phoenix that could answer those questions.

Also don’t be so cheap. Park in the garage.

You people just don't know how to talk female.  You should have asked her if it was closer to the elevators that are on the same side of her favorite shoe store as the coffee place she goes every morning or the nail salon that she goes to every Thursday

Keep this in your back pocket: "Honey, at least that clock is right twice a day. Is that too much to ask from you?"

You married a stripper, your insight on womaning is irrelevant.
