Labs, Aussies, border collies, bassets = medium

Pyrs, goldens, huskies, GSDs = large

Danes, Berners, Newfies, mastiffs = XL

Labs and goldens are typically the same size class. Siberian huskies, on average, are a smaller breed than both of those retrievers. German shepherds are in the same weight class, though on the average high end slightly larger than a labrador, which is on average slightly larger than a golden.

My wife was just looking for the keys to her car.  Asked me where they were.  Again - HER CAR.  I don't know, but I pointed her toward the spare set.  She accused me of having them in my pants.  Nope.  HER CAR.  She continues to look and says "I know I didn't leave them in the car" and walks out the door to go check.  She doesn't come back.  Car's gone.  Guess she found the keys.

Um, if you roll back some pages, you can see how this ends.  With me giving my wife my old car, and getting a new car.

Does everyone just assume at some point that the wife is going to total her car?  I get a call probably every couple of weeks in the morning when she's on the way to work about how she narrowly avoided a wreck and everyone on the road doesn't know how to drive.

too soon.......

I actually met Nivek.  
 

I asked him the significance of his handle. 
 

He said it’s “Kevin” spelled backward. 
 

I have my moments.  
 

That was not one of them.

Either/or questions apparently can’t be taught to my wife. Even after 20+ years of me trying, she still can’t grasp the concept. Do you want me to put this in the kitchen or living room? Answer:Yes. Do you want pizza or something from home for supper? Answer: No. Am I picking the kids up or are you? Answer: Yes.

I’ve had to retrain my brain to remember that she is answering the “or” part with no regard for the first choice. She apparently only processes the last thing heard which doesn’t surprise me. It annoys me to the point of trying not to even ask the question that way, but one still slips out occasionally.

Just ask her every night “Do you want me to get fucked in the ass or do you want me to wash the dishes?”.  When she answers yes to the dishes then just assume she was saying yes to the sex.

This is going to sound like a Nate Bargatz bit but,

Wife calls on the way home with the kids.  They're stopping at Bahama Breeze (snow cone place).  Do I want something?  Sure.  Pina Colada.

15 minutes later.  

Me after taking a sip:  What the hell is this?

Her: Pina colada and pickle juice.

Me:  What?

Her: You asked for pina colada, but I know you also like pickle juice.

Me, taking a deep breath:  

[Kennythetiger 9584]

I hope you traded with her, whether or not she was willing. Or rubbed her nose in it. Either way.

What is with women commenting on baby boy's penises?  My wife doesn't do this at least, but her friends who are other people's wives have made some weird comments. Stuff like, "Ohhh he's going to make some girl happy some day!"  or commenting on its potential size due to current proportions. I have no idea how big or small it is compared to other baby boys, because I really don't have a frame of reference for this subject, but it's fucking weird. Anyways, if any of you happen to run into this sort of weird shit, the best comment to make IMO is, "Well it runs in the family." and then stare at them. Don't blink, don't smile, completely serious deadpan, and see what they do.

This is beyond gross. Your wife needs new friends. 41 year old woman here, and I have never heard this in my life.

Yep.

I finally caved and spent the money for her gmail to be able to hold hundreds of thousands of unread emails (mostly from every shopping site under the sun).

 

My time is valuable enough where I dont need to sit around and delete emails for her.  Because we all know she won't do it herself.

You can set up filters in gmail for free that would have deleted them for you.

Back during the height of the pandemic my wife applied for and received unemployment. She has a little bit of a weird job where her pay is not hourly or salary and shit got complicated. She also applied for some that she probably wasn't entitled to. I told her not to do that, even though money got a little tight around that time. I didn't really understand everything, I didn't want to know, but I just told her "pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered" and not to push it. Anyway, we're two years on now and she's still fucking with it. The state is trying to recover the money they say she shouldn't have gotten, but from what I understand they are overreaching and trying to take back money she was entitled to. I was sort of disgusted by the whole thing when it first started and I have largely stayed out of it. It's been her thing to deal with. In my opinion, she has fucked it all the way up, it's her fault and I'm not fixing it for her. It pisses me off even thinking about it.

At some point, maybe she got scared or I had a moment of weakness, I made an appearance during one of her hearings with the TWC. (I am a licensed attorney.) I have handled a few wage claim issues with TWC in the past and it is a very aggravating process.

This morning my wife had an appeal hearing. She had asked me to stay home with our kids and dog while she had this hearing.  Sure, no problem. The hearing was at 8:30. I'm downstairs tending to the kids and the dog and scrolling the news on my phone. At 8:30:30 she comes running downstairs and I can hear the hearing officer on speaker asking about her personal representative. Something like, "Do you want your personal representative on this call?" She's looking at me with this deer in the headlights look.  She doesn't know what to do. So I finish slinging breakfast at the kids and haul ass upstairs to my office. I say that I'm present and that kicks off a series of exchanges with the hearing officer where he's berating me for not being present when the hearing started, my wife already said she didn't want her representative present, do not leave the phone again, etc.  Dude is ordering me around and berating me and shit. When I ran up, before I even said anything, he was asking my wife if she'd received certain documents. She was flipping through them in front of me and she said she'd received something that wasn't there. I was like, "Hold on, hold on. She doesn't have that document." Guy tried to shut me down again and told me to be quiet and stop interrupting the hearing.  It sort of went downhill from there for a while until I finally figured out what was going on. She had missed the deadline to file an appeal and it was very clear. The whole hearing was just a dog and pony show. No substantive issues were reached at all. If the fucking guy had just told me that from the beginning I would have just walked out of the room, probably. So, my wife didn't ask me to be part of the hearing or tell me anything about it other than it was happening and then drags me into it while the hearing is in progress with zero preparation. Let alone the fact that she fucked this whole thing up and cost our family thousands of dollars because she tried to fuck around with unemployment.
