Genius. That should go in 'things that women say' thread. Im reminded of my mates now wife when he took her to Australia for holiday years ago. When she got there and saw the banknotes she said, 'look at that, their Queen looks loads like ours'.You'll like this one.. My mates missus last night burnt her mouth on a brew he made her, she blamed him for it being too hot saying that he "boiled the kettle twice"... She honestly thinks that the more you boil water the hotter it gets.
genius. Right up there with Mrs hc and a few others I bet, that think you have to turn the room thermostat up on a cold day. I've tried explaining that 20 degrees C is still the same temp whatever the weather - hence the invention of the thermostat, but I might as well be talking to a monkey. I'm honestly thinking of having a dummy thermostat for her to crank up to whatever she likes and get a real one hidden under the stairs or something.You'll like this one..

Now that is genius. Do it, she would love it and you can have that inner feeling of self satisfaction at your clever secret. The Dummy Thermostat, an invention that only men know about.genius.

early evening Tuesday I was summoned to the kitchen where I received a criticism of the way I put things in the fridge sloppily! It was pointed out to me how slack I was and that i should fix it. I ignored said request and went back to more important things.
20 minutes later I go to grab a beer from the fridge and the bloody bottle thatvibhad apprently put in slackly leaps from the fridge on to my little toe and now it is broken (toe not bottle) worst thing still the wife was watching.
been an effort all week to hide pain and try to minimise the "I told you so"
The beautiful Mrs This! and I have an ongoing dishwasher feud, that has become almost a marital ritual.
I stack it (perfectly, with the correct amount of items). She then re-stacks and over fills it. After it's done, I then unstack it, put away the clean dishes and leave the still-dirty items from over filling on the side with a look of superiority on my face.
Repeat daily.
