Goes on the defensive if I mention stuff getting left out. Same with not wiping things down. To be honest reading this thread I think you’re just married to an absolute fucking mink. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

die hard doonhamer Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 On 08/01/2022 at 18:15, Loonytoons said: Getting a flight from Glasgow to Luton. I asked my better half what time we had to be at the airport. 7.00 was the reply. Good stuff, thought I. 90 minute drive and also miss the traffic. Left the following morning at 5:15 just for a bit of leeway then asked when the flight was. 7.00 was the reply. She and the kids got dropped off just in time, I had a shitty drive all the way to Southern Englandshire. Sounds ideal to me, tbh! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the male names (including my da, uncle and the fucking dog) would be gone through before she settled on mine. Mine's been doing that for the past ten years, mainly with me and the wean. She always, always gets our names wrong the first time, which is remarkable. The mother-in-law has a thing where she always gets the gender of animals wrong when referring to them, and my mother's just entered that stage too. I could understand occasional confusion due to old age, but fucking it up every time? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could understand occasional confusion due to old age, but fucking it up every time? My wife does it with our 4 cats - she gets the names wrong as well as the gender. Even more impressive is that all 4 are named after their features (mow mow, Oreo, blindy and ginger!) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Do people actually say fork and knife? That's like asking someone if they want 'tea in a cup'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this instance he almost certainly means sex and not gender but there's now a bit of discussion about this with the higher apes. So some non-human animals might have genders. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
