February 13, 20205 yr Popular Post Just popping in to say that my wife scheduled our Spring Break trip with the kids the week after they actually have Spring Break. I take full responsibility for trusting her crazy ass and not looking the dates up myself, but it's all about the nonrefundable hotel reservations.

February 13, 20205 yr Rental car, getting out of a tight parallel space. Apparently when you get reeeeaaaall close to something when backing, in addition to the audible tone this jeep adds a tactile vibration that has its own sound. It goes off as I’m inching towards the car behind me and my wife screams Oh Jesus! at the sound. Really helpful when I’m 2” away from another car. so I almost whisper please calm down you’re yelling at me and I don’t appreciate it! Edited February 13, 20205 yr by Pato del Muerto

Call customer service as many times it takes until you get a married man. Explain crazy wife. Switch dates. Profit. Seriously, non-refundable doesn't always mean un-rescheduleable. Give it a shot. And be sure to relentlessly shame the mrs and extract "payment" for saving the day.
February 13, 20205 yr Oh my word. You don't need to wait on an allergist to give you the green light to give your baby some eggs. Give that little girl some eggs. If she gets sick, she's allergic. If she doesn't, you're good to go. For goodness sake, people have been giving their children eggs for thousands of years. Do we really need to do an allergy screen on every food type now before we feed our babies?!? /edit/ probably could have posted this rant in the "trivial things that make you surly" thread.Or take 1.75 seconds and just look under the ingredients on the package and foods will list if eggs are an ingredient.
February 14, 20205 yr Take your side piece and go. Leave the wife at home with the kids.Or she’s taking the side piece and leaving him with the kids!

We were bouncing around to three different locations. The airbnb chick was extremely cool and is refunding me everything even though she could take half. One of the hotels has a 7 day cancelation policy so I got all of that one back. I haven't heard back from the third one yet - they could ding me for half so the most I'm going to be out is around $350. I feel like I dodged a bit of a bullet but now I get to plan a new spring break with a solid three week head start on it. I hear Seguin is lovely this time of year.
February 14, 20205 yr Popular Post The only other little ray of sunshine on this deal is that my wife complains that whenever she tells me something, I typically look it up online to make sure she isn't completely wrong. I mean, even the simplest shit like the weather forecast. She invariably gets mad at me and says shit like, "What? Don't you believe me. Why are you doubting me? Why can't you just trust what I'm saying? " Now I get to gleefully remind her of this golden fuck up every single gotdam time she gets on my ass about rechecking whatever bullshit fact that she thinks she knows. So I have that going for me. Which is nice.

February 14, 20205 yr Driving to an aquarium (dolphin tale one) in Clearwater. Come up on Gulf To Bay Rd. I say hey I bet this road runs from the gulf to the bay. We are heading north. We are on the west coast of Florida. She says “so the bay is on the left and the gulf is on the right, right? me: no hon, we’re going north. Her:i think I’m right. Me: you probably are, dear.

Her: I made scrambled eggs for her, but I found a list online and it said eggs are dangerous to give babies until it's determined they aren't allergic. Should we give her some? Me: No, you just said it's dangerous. Her: But what will she eat for breakfast? In her mind, the baby who has had nothing but formula and baby food is going to throw a fit if she isn't served traditional breakfast food in the morning. Edited February 15, 20205 yr by VolenteHawk

February 16, 20205 yr Does anyone else’s wife buy the cheapest, most useless band aids? My kids just come to me for one out of my stash now.....
February 16, 20205 yr My three year old thinks band aids are some combination of stickers and miracle chinese medicine. So getting the cheapest ones possible just makes good sense.

February 17, 20205 yr I got some new, brighter light bulbs so I can read in bed and the wife was concerned. Her: I don't like it. Now when I go to bed, that bright light will be on and I go to bed before you do. Me: When? I go to bed around 9:30 because I have to be up at 5:30. You play on your phone in the living room until 10:30-11 because you don't have to be at work until 9:00. Tone

Then she realizes its not her car, its not even the same model, its just the same colour Well, I bet your wife if posting on another web site about her husband spelling color like some sort of Brit ninny.
