We're hosting Thanksgiving this year so we've been doing a lot of menu planning and whatnot.  It's been a collaborative effort.  My wife wants to get two kinds of rolls - one kind that can be bought at a grocery store and then rolls from Hartz chicken.  She thinks they are the bomb.  They are good, I admit it, but I didn't think they were good enough to warrant a special trip.  I didn't say anything though.  Fast forward to this morning:
Wife: "I decided not to get the Hartz rolls after all."
Ojo:  (laughing) "Okay, good.  It was a dumb idea anyway." (bold move, Cotton, I know)
Wife: "It wasn't dumb, it just wasn't..."
Ojo:  "Smart?" (laughing)
Wife:  (getting pissed) "It wasn't a dumb idea; I just decided against it, okay?"
Ojo: "The rolls themselves were not a dumb idea. Making a special trip for a second type of roll in light of all of the other shit we are doing is what I thought was dumb."
Wife:  "I don't know why this is even a discussion."
Ojo:  "I agree."
Fin.
Now wife will be pissed off at me for two weeks.  I was trying to be funny.

Serious rookie move brah

When that happens I look over and she is looking at her phone.  I just leave the room.  It used to irritate the shit out of me but now I'm just bemused.  It's a way better feel.

Yup. I used to yell, “AND???” which of course would get me in trouble. Now I just don’t care.

And yes, it’s always while she’s looking at her phone. Which is all the time.

Yep.  It's like getting mad at the weather.  After a while, the joke is on you...

Next time you want to bust your wife’s balls, try to remember that she doesn’t have any. And if you proceed, get ready to accept blue balls of your own for a while.

My wife often tries to speak at roughly the speed of light and the words don't always catch up to her brain, so she'll fuck up some words. I am a habitual ball-buster and I just can't help but point that shit out and laugh, I do it to myself too. Last night, we were talking with my kid and the wife blurts out some gibberish as she's talking and I give the kid a glance out of the corner of my eye. She heard it too and we both have a shit eating grin on our faces. Wife sees this and storms away, saying that I'm "Being rude".

Update:

I tell wife this morning that I plan to leave work earlier than normal today so I can get home in time to do some specific tasks.

She calls me to verify that I am, in fact, coming home earlier than normal. I confirm. Then she says, "Good. Because when you get home I want to leave you with all three kids so I can go to store X."  I'm like, "WTF?! I told you I was coming home to do some shit, which I can't do if I'm dealing with our three kids."  Her solution:  put the kids in camp again tomorrow for a half day at a cost of $240 so she can go to store X then.  Somehow in all of this I'm the asshole.

She set an alarm for 10 minutes before we planned to leave yesterday to remind her to pack her medicine for our two-day Thanksgiving visit with family.  

Alarm goes off, and she says “thank goodness I set that to remind me to grab my medicine.”

15 minutes later, we are two minutes into our four hour drive.  

Her: Can you pull over?  I need to check my suitcase in the trunk and make sure I packed my medicine.

At least she didn’t ask you to remind her, thus would’ve started a fight tonight when you inevitably forget to remind her.

Was paying bills this month and I see a random $60 charge from Apple for an app purchase I didn't recognize.  Ask my wife if she knows and she says "oh yeah, I forgot to cancel a trial for this sleep app I downloaded that tells me how well I sleep at night."

She then goes on to say it "listens" at night and tells her how much she snores, talks, or even farts.  Unless I'm passed out drunk I don't snore or talk but I've wondered how it knows the difference between her or me.

On farting, however, is that the kind of thing she can use against me in court should we ever get divorced?  I've had a lot of deviled eggs today so it's on my mind.

Driving the kiddo to daycare yesterday.  See someone's wife in the lane next to me with her hood clearly disengaged.  Looked like she pulled the hood release rather than the parking break release, cruising 75 mph and texting on her phone, completely oblivious to the hood rattling around like Michael J Fox.

My wife and I were talking about Teslas and how they work. I said that they use the same electric motor technology as found in electric bikes and scooters, just with a higher level of complexity.

My normally intelligent wife disagreed. She thinks Teslas use electricity to drive the pistons which then drive the crankshaft.

She's just so used to cranking shafts.

Wife knows my morning routine, including the last step - make a cup of coffee. I then kiss her goodbye and head out the door. And I often need to get moving, as I regularly schedule morning meetings and calls.

Well, two mornings this week, she waits till I head in to make my cup of coffee, and she heads to the john….to take a crap. I make my coffee….”hey, honey, I’m going to head out.” Irritated wife voice: “can you just wait for me a minute?” I wait…for more than a minute. She comes out, irked, to tel me goodbye for the day.

She knows damned well that when I hit the kitchen to make my cup of coffee, I am 90 seconds away from walking out the door. She could wait literally 90 seconds, and then hit the bathroom for as long as she wants. But nope. Gotta make me late for work.

It really was the superior videotape format. Damn vhs propaganda marketing wizardry fucked us. 

I heard somewhere that VHS became the standard because it was the platform that the porn industry chose.  I have no idea if that is true.

It was because Sony pulled an Apple and got Microsofted by everyone else going to VHS

We had both VHS and Betamax when I was a kid but dad felt like Betamax was the better option. "It's better quality and the tapes hold more!" is what I believe he said at the time. We had a couple hundred tapes at one point. Fast forward several years and his machine broke. He took it to a repair shop but was told it would be a while to get it fixed because Sony's shit was all proprietary and the part was only made by some guy living in a small village in Japan. Dad said fuck that and we made a clandestine trip to a local TG&Y dumpster one night to toss all the tapes. We never spoke of it again.

What is all this DVD talk?

I had a buddy that had hundreds of these. I would go over to his apt for movie nights in his apt. It seemed badass in the early to mid-90s, but now it makes me wonder what kind of resolution and sound we had back then. 

What was so incredibly badass then seems quite quaint now.
