Hot day. Just finished mowing the lawn and doing some landscaping. Think I’ll have myself a big glass of lemonade. Maybe go for an Arnold Palmer with some iced tea.

Nope.

At least my one sip was cold.

Worse, we will be watching a show and she will ask me to rewind it or have me explain the last 5 minutes of what just happened because she was on her phone. 

when she isn't paying attention, i pause it.  drives her crazy.

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.

You need to follow up on this story. Has the 11 yr old used it yet?

Innovative sex toy/device?

Oh, boy.  The text just now.

Her: Can you stop and get me a 16" x 16" box?  It will save me time.

Me:  (knowing she wants to ship something) OK.  Will see what I can do.  How deep does the box need to be?

Her:  It's a 16" square

Me: I know that part.  16" wide x 16" wide / long x what?  I need the 3rd dimension.  Are you shipping a football helmet or a shirt?

Her:  Ugh.  16" x 16" x 16"  That's a square.

Me:  OK.  Now I know the 3rd dimension.  BTW, 16" x 16" x 16" is a cube, not a square.    Tone.

I may stay out tonight.

I'd have been tempted to get a big ass envelope.  "Here you go, 16x16."

But I'd have also gotten a 16x16x16 box to cover my ass.

We live about 15 minutes away from anything. We get into the car. 

Me- jesus this thing is on E and the gas light is on. 

Her- I'm not afraid. *points at dashboard* We've got 20 miles until we're empty.

My wife does this shit.

"Why would you trust that this thing is accurate down to the mile when the alternative is you running out of gas while you're driving?"

<blank stare>

"If you ever run out of gas, you better not call me."

 

Pretty sure she has run out of gas at least twice.

Luckily we got a new gas station near the house about the time I got married.

That's within the error zone. I've had mine drop from 20 to 2 immediately. I was on my way to get gas, thankfully.

This.

If you're not driving your wife's car once a month to fix all the messed up shit, you're gonna get hit with a big repair bill at some point.

Occasionally I will take the wife's vehicle to the gas station on Sunday afternoon and fill it up.  Win/win.  I get a few minutes of peace and quiet and she appreciates it.  Mostly I do it for the peace and quiet.

Yeah those things aren't accurate as others have pointed out. And I can't tell you how many times i've told her if you're coming home with less than a quarter tank, stop and fill up. The comment I'm not scared of the gas light is what got me. Bitch you know damn good and well if your ass runs out of gas on the side of the highway, your ass is going to be scared and calling me to come get you.

Pretty sure most cars have at least a gallon left when they hit the "O miles left" mark.  The engineers designed that around their wives, I'm guessing.

There's a solid argument against hiring women engineers.

life hack - let the cat pee in the pile of bags. Usually only need to do it once or twice before she give up and only keeps a handful of bags

Why corral the cat?  Be a man and pee on them yourself.

Do it right and go to the grocery store too with a big giant list.  Then hit a bar, drink a beer or three, go to the grocery store and speed shop for the list.   I guaran-damn-tee that I can do a grocery shop trip, with every item on the list purchased in half the time (or less) than 99% of women.

Last night watching "This is America" Sacha Baron Cohen's new show when we got to the Bachelorette girl.

"Wait, are you telling me these two episodes were real people and not in on the joke? Even the racist guy showing his ass? That was real?"

Holy fuck, it took her until watching the reality show girl get owned to realize what deep shit this country is in.

This works best if you actually have a cat.

My grocery store has a beer and wine bar in it. 12 beers on tap, mostly local/Texas breweries.   A couple of pints of craft brew make a half time break between non-perishable and cold foods.

Driving home from New Mexico a couple of weeks ago on a winding mountain road.

Her:  we have no cell service, how are we going to get home?

Me:  what do you mean?

Her: how are we gonna get home if the navigation app isn’t working?

Me:  I’m sure we’ll get service back when we get out of the mountains.

her:  what if we don’t?

me: I’m 99% sure I can get us home without the nav.  Do you see the little ‘E’ on the right side of the rearview mirror?  It’s a compass and the ‘E’ stands for East.  Worst case scenario is we just keep going in that direction.  Would it ease your mind if I stop at the next gas station and purchase a map? (I wanted to ask her what the odds are of us having no cell service for our entire trip from Eastern New Mexico to DFW and the zombiee apocalypse/nuclear war that would be capable of causing said outage, but I restrained myself).

apparently there was an issue with tone in my last response.  And cell service magically was restored when we exited the mountains.

When we were moving I asked my wife if she wanted me to pack her jewelry in the safe so it didn't get lost during the move.  She declined.  Must have thought the movers were going to crack the safe or some shit.  Whatever..

Fast forward 2 days after our move was complete and she's hysterical running around the new house crying because she couldn't find her wedding ring.  She put it in a small jewelry box in her purse and she thinks she "dropped it in the driveway" while we were moving.  She was 100% certain that she put this jewelry case in a box that she also put in her purse and now it's missing.  After about 1 hour of her calling everyone, sobbing uncontrollably and posting that she lost her ring on the HOA fb group...

Me: Is this it?

Her: Yes! Where did you find it!

She packed it in one of the boxes.

I would say she's learned her lesson but I doubt it.
