Women will buy every shampoo, conditioner, bath soap,, miracle face cream, by the time they are near gramma age.

I can save the hundreds of dollars and inform: buy dove repair shampoo, dove repair conditioner, dove dry skin moisturizer, dove hair gel cream. Dove or a vitamin C cream with spf..dove body wash...

If you do all this from a young age make up by the hundreds is not needed. The best mascara ever was bought on a Amazon flash sale for under 10 dollars.

You're welcome.

I remember when I was about 14, so circa 1995, I was watching Jerry Springer and the Episode was about people with weird phobias. One woman had a phobia of cotton balls. To teach her to deal with her fear, Jerry released a man covered in cotton balls from backstage and the woman screamed and ran off the set.

That is how I feel when I see empty Amazon boxes. Once you take the delivery out, the box is trash that belongs in a trash can with a lid. Not stacked in our house!!!!

I can be in the middle of preparing food, leave the kitchen for a few minutes to do something else, and when I return, the utensils I was using have been put in the dishwasher.


mine's not quiiite that bad;she leaves cooking utensils alone. her thing is glasses. if she sees a drinking glass unattended, in the DW it goes.

somehow she managed to throw away the 'press' portion of a french press contraption "cleaning up" the kitchen. when she's in cleaning mode, common sense goes on holiday.

I’m with your wife. I have all my shirts organized by color. When I do laundry it goes back on the same hanger it came off of.

My wife constantly puts toilet paper on the holder like a neanderthal. I’ve explained to her multiple times that she’s doing it wrong but doesn’t care.

This is the correct way for a civilized society

She organizes her food in her mouth and chews without closing her lips

I can't help it, it's an obsessive-compulsive thing. I halfway think the wife bought the in-fridge egg holder thingy to try to get me to stop doing it. At least I'm not this guy.

All of her clothes are inside out when I decide to do her a solid and throw a load of laundry in.
Not Mrs Füt but one of our kids was guilty of this from early childhood. I called them “plane crash clothes” because already dead victims’ bodies of mid-air plane break-ups generally end up nekkid as their clothes blow off on the way to the ground.

The clothes are usually found on the ground inside-out.

Besides, the eggs need to be reorganized in a new geometric pattern in the carton every time I use a couple for my omelette. Those are the rules.

Thought I was the only one who did this.


Gotta keep the weight/balance of the carton even...

Leave it out and the toothbrush gremlins come and mess with it.

we used to but the cup would get all nasty in the bottom. ours are kept in a drawer on a washcloth. (my wife has an arsenal of dental hygiene implements, so this makes more sense)
