Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do

Recommended Posts

Later this month my wife and a girlfriend are going to a concert, and through some online mixup I don’t care to understand my wife got significantly less great seats than they had agreed to buy and when she noticed the show was all booked.  Wife is getting reimbursed after the fact so none of the below is related to upsetness over money or a late Venmo or something. 
 

Anyway, the girlfriend has been a total PITA about this, griping about the shitty seats, questioning whether she “really” wants to go, asking if my wife can’t contact the vendor and try to upgrade, etc. Last night in the car my wife was both complaining and asking me what she could do to “make it up to her.” Could she find a way to get a backstage pass? Should she offer to get dinner before the show? Should she keep calling the vendor? 
 

“You should text her or call her and say that you’re sorry you made a mistake and the seats aren’t as good as ya’ll wanted, but it’s too late and not a big deal worth spoiling a nice evening over so let’s just go and have fun.” 
 

Friends, apparently this idea is the equivalent to taking a dump in a box and leaving it gift-wrapped on this woman’s doorstep. Anyway, I pulled the ejector seat on the convo, let them figure it the fuck out.

You know you're going to the concert with your wife instead of her girlfriend, right?

You know you’re going to be spending $500 to fix this pseudo issue that deserves nothing but the explanation you stated.

Humble brag? So, how many girlfriends do you have? Surly 1%!
