Every night, I pick up the wee man from nursery to and come on to her cooking. Invariably it involves spinach, too much parmesan and loads of garlic. I'm fucking sick of the sight, smell and taste of all three. I try telling her, and it's a personal attack. Asked her before I nipped down tonight, what she was preparing. Pasta with all of the above. I specifically said, no thanks, I'll sort myself, only to come in to a bowl that smelled like an old sock mixed with stale vomit. Tried a bit, near booked, left it and went and bought myself something I'll eat. Apparently I'm a p***k 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told my girlfriend numerous times that I didn't like mushrooms and I'd prefer if she didn't use them in things. She said no problem but continued doing it anyway, just cutting them up smaller and adding them to meals thinking I don't notice. Rather than moan about it I just eat it because what's the fucking point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 We went out to pick up takeaway pizza on Friday night. I choose one off the menu, she decides to take advantage of their "build your own" and asks for a Ham & Pineapple. I've long known she is a pineapple deviant, but I put up with it because she does have some other redeeming qualities. Then we get back to mine, sit down with the food, and she pipes up "do you have any ketchup?" And yes, she meant for the pizza. No chips on the go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To make up for that, congratulations for marrying a nymphomaniac whose father owns a distillery and/or a brewery! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stimpy Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 My wife has been nipping my head because the new and final season of Young Sheldon is out but only in the US like I'm somehow in charge of scheduling. I needed some peace so I downloaded an app so she could watch it and she got me to search (she can't work the app) for The Conners which is a Rosanne spin off and the latest season of Mamma June reality show. So she's buzzing and watched loads of Young Sheldon. I got home from work last night and she's no happy because it's not working. So I check and other things are working just not Young Sheldon so I investigate further and the episode she's trying to watch aired in the US like an hour previous (again I believe this was my fault) On top of this she won't let me show her how to fix it if it doesn't work because she just doesn't understand technical things and I now have to watch some God awful TV. Really, Mamma June is horrendous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Is this a woman thing in general or am I just ridiculously unlucky? When I was at home my mum would do this and my Mrs does exactly the same thing - if they are making the tea they shout "Tea's ready" so I'll go through to the kitchen to collect it only to be met with her either still dishing up or the food still in the oven/air fryer. So I'm left standing there waiting because if I go in I get moaned at for getting in the way when it's getting dished up. On the flipside, if I wait for a few minutes after being told tea's ready I'm then constantly shouted until I go through 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would appear that I’ve been summoned for reasons unknown to me, and pity help me if I ignore said summons as my dinner/coffee/beer could end up binned 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming you're like my son here, who I tell dinner's ready when I start making it as it takes him about an hour to move his arse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I always acknowledge/d the shout and go/went through thereafter. The only reason I stopped doing that was because of the reasons I said. 1 hour ago, Loonytoons said: I generally do the cooking in my house and that's how I behave.

We never had a dining room at home but my Mrs will sometimes shout for me to set the table if that's what she needs done, which makes the whole thing even more bizarre. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
