My brother built a house there in 1971 - he just sold it earlier this year. Hope you weren't banging my niece.

Is she named Jill? If so, it was her friend that I banged.

No, but I'll ask if she had a friend named Jill.

There is a 100% probability that if my wife is boiling anything it will spill over onto the stovetop.

Why might you ask?

Because Facetron

There is 100% probability that if my wife is cooking anything the smoke alarm will go off.

 

FIFM

 

Can't get her to understand:

1.) you probaly shouldn't use all the burners at once

2.) if you do attempt multiple burners, there will be a much larger margin for error if they are not all set on High.

Pro Tip: Put a wooden spoon on the top of the pot. Stops that overflow from happening.

True, however you must be unclear on the title of this thread.  I've suggested many remedies and very few have been received.

Yeah, my bad. Just maybe when you see her starting to boil something, slide a spoon on top to prevent a mess. Or goose her with it, just whichever.

GO out to water the front yard this morning.  Come back in and smell something funny, yet frighteningly familiar.  Head to kitchen.  Shake head. Head to bedroom to tell wife who's brushing her teeth, "You left the damn gas on the stove on overnight.  Thank God we're not dead. Yet."  

Had exact same thing happen.

$1700 for a new tailgate for the truck.  It has a backup camera.  Apparently that crepe myrtle really came out of nowhere.

[Beau Vine 54004]

I told my wife that the light switch in the garage was multi-functional, that it could turn the light both on *AND* off.

She told me that I was an asshole.

My wife is so inattentive to the pots she starts boiling on the stove, that when the smoke detector goes off and the kids say "Mommy's cooking!"

I should have linked the timer switches on prime day.  Those were my solution.  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SNU8EUM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

They need to call those “wife switches” to alert husbands. I’ve got 5 of those throughout the house and garage.

Couldn’t get the DVD player to work and was trying different HDMI ports. The wife kept shouting out for me to try port HDM12 or HDM13. I could not figure out what the hell she was referring to, until I realized she was mixing up I for a 1.

I was out of town last weekend and my wife invited her sister's family over to swim in the pool.  We've only been in the house a little while and my wife doesn't know anything about the pool controls.  This was the first time she used the pool without me there.  She wanted to run the hot tub, so she calls me.  It was a too-long and very frustrating conversation that ended with me screaming at her and asking to talk to my brother in law so he could do the controls, but at one point I asked her if the fountains were running.  The reason I asked her this was to verify that she had moved the valves in the right way so that all of the suction and all of the return was flowing through the heater and the hot tub like it was supposed to. We have these two little water features that are just jets that spew little fountains of water up a foot or so.  If the fountains were going that meant she did not have the valves set right.  She kept answering me talking about the bubbles in the hot tub (which I also had to explain to her how to operate).  I was telling her, "The fountains!  The two little jets of water on the step platform!"  Silence.  "Where we set the baby's seat!" Silence.  "The fountains!" Silence. She still had no fucking idea what I was talking about.  "Jesus!  Let me talk to *brother-in-law*!!"

Mine ordered some "line caught king salmon" from Washington. Been hearing about how excited she was about it for a few days. A big fedex box showed up this morning containing six 6oz frozen filets packed on dry ice. Total cost $99. All I could say was, "I wonder if we're going to think this $50 a pound salmon is worth it after we eat it." ffs

Yep.  My wife does the same thing. 

Me: You want a small or medium gluten-free, cage-free, free-roaming, no antibiotic, hand-crafted, cheese pizza for yourself?

Atom splitter:  How many slices come on the medium?

Me: (confer with TTech grad taking order) Uh, they're saying 8, babe.

Atom splitter:  Ooh, that's too many.  I'll take a small.

That’s when I’d ask that the small be cut into 10 pieces.

When you’re traveling ...and you’re in Palestine, TX, ... and you’ve already shown her the joys of the Best Western... and your wife says, “Let’s just take it easy tonight.  Maybe tomorrow, we’ll go out.”

 

A) you want more?

B) you wanted it harder?

C) your boyfriend in Palestine isn’t home, huh?

D) show me a place that’s actually open tomorrow...and that’s where we’ll eat.

Yesterday my wife saved HUNDREDS of dollars while shopping at JC Penney.  She showed me the receipt and everything.  HUNDREDS.  I'm thinking of buying a boat, maybe 2 boats.

Like clockwork man.  Like clockwork.  She always comes home with a bunch of stuff, starting the conversation with, "I saved....".  Last week she came home with this because it was on sale.  I said that'd be great if our boys were 3 years old; they're 6 and 11.  Her counter was that the 6 year-old needed core exercise.  I told her crunches were free.  Tone.
