It's not stupid per se, but it frustrates me to no end, which I've told her over and over, and yet...

She *always* asks a lead up question:

"Hey, are you at home?"
"Yep, what's up?"
one minute...
two minutes...
five minutes...
ten minutes...
"Hon, I was literally walking out the door when you messaged. Do you need something?"
fifteen minutes...
*leaves home*
twenty minutes...
thirty minutes...
"Hey, sorry, would you (insert whatever here)"
"I would have, but I left home fifteen minutes ago. Would you please in the future just say what you need in the first text? I waited around for fifteen minutes and *still* couldn't do what you were asking"
"Ok, yeah, I'll do that going forward:

Narrator: To this day, she has never, not once, done so...

“Hey babe can you grab my chap stick while you’re up?”

Drives me fricking insane. And she will have been sitting there for an hour and it’s like she’s just waiting for me to get up and then she asks.

Showing her the NOAA hurricane satellite imagery. The gif loops through a couple of times.

"So I guess they just draw the state lines on there after?"

Nope. The state lines are visible from space babe.

“Where is/are my ......?”

Insert object that I never have anything to do with: keys, phone, sunglasses, shoes, etc

We have had about 5 inches of rain the last week and my wife asked me, since their were slugs under the grill cover, if I put the cover on while wet when I last covered it..

I just blankly stared at her and said "it's been a monsoon around here for a week and u think I put the grill cover on wet"?
that is the same thing we talk about all the time. Drives me crazy.

It’s always “the slugs”. “The grill cover”. Screw that

Rewatching the National Championship this morning.

Her: “The last 5 minutes of a football game is like 45 minutes.”
Me: “It’s not the last 5 minutes, it’s only the 2nd quarter.”
Her: “How many quarters are there?”
Me:

My husband always wants a play by play of my cooking...

Him: Does it have olive oil?
Me: Yes.
Him: Do you saute the onions?
Me: Yes.
Him: Do you bake it at the end?
Me: Yes. The recipe is right here. You can read it.
Him: How do you cut the tomatoes? Are they sliced?
Me: **face palm**

This will go on for at least 20 questions.

This reminds me of a story my old boss told me about his wife.

His wife inherited some money and she was trying to decide what to do. Every day after work he would go to the bar for an hour, have a few drinks before going home.

One day she went into the bar, his buddies were around and says in her normal voice so that the people around them could hear "I figured it out. I am going to put $8000 in one bank with 2% interest and the other $8000 in another bank with 2% interest and that way I will be getting 4% interest.

* the numbers used in the story doesn't reflect the actual numbers. The point is that she thought she could double her interest by splitting up money and putting them in two different banks.

She probably found your response to be as incomprehensible as I do.

She always mixes up cities/states.

“Boston is a state, right?”

I tried to explain Washington DC to her once. After 15 minutes my nose started bleeding and I had to quit
