Funny marriage story.

Our dishwasher has been a sack of crap, but we are trying to conserve financially right now, so I have been resisting replacing it. So the other morning, I'm walking out to go to work and she asks, "why can't you replace the dishwasher?" For once in my life, I have the snappy comeback ready. No hesitation: "Because divorce is expensive." Zing!!

And it totally doesn't compute. "I don't want to get a divorce over it, I just want to replace it". Sigh. WHY YOU RUIN THIS FOR ME, WOMAN?!

Sounds like an exciting moment in the life of a married man.

I was going to say, if I were replacing the dishwasher I'd be replacing myself. I guess the joke still works.

One of my stepbrothers is blowing up facebook at the moment with a video he captured at our wedding. Apparently he captured a video of an angel hovering around. Went to a medium and they "confirmed" it. I won't be able to see the video until tomorrow but I'm going to post it here when I can.

My stepfamily is full of whack jobs. Also my real family is too as they all believe this event was real and the angel was protecting my cancer-ridden grandmother. No words bros. I hope this video doesn't end up on one of those shows like "Fact or Fiction" or something

Need lumie to confirm that it was actually a demon giving your grandmother cancer but disguised as an angel.

When he shows it to you you HAVE to say, "I see crazy people".

Well fuck if a medium confirmed it, I'm sold
No kidding, right? You basically have a customer walking in and validating their entire business model (afterlife / hocus pocus). She hopes to have netted a client for life!

I have a question. Why is it socially acceptable for women to be afraid ofeverything?Ooh, there's a spider/cockroach, you have to kill it for me. No, you have to get it out of the basement, I can't go down there by myself its dark and scary. I can't walk to my car by myself even in broad daylight, someone needs to come with me. I can't come outside now, look that tree is full of birds they could come after me.

God dammit, you are an adult, please act like one.

I'm working on it. I just saw it last night.. here's a brief description. Basically it's 2 minutes of people dancing on the dance floor and then out of fucking nowhere this thing that looks like a white bird comes out of the DJ station and flys directly at the camera. Honestly, to me it looked like one of those weird SyFy channel CG effects that are all cheap and shit. I have no idea how it got there.. it was laughably awesome.

I'll try to grab a link today as it's only on Facebook and I cancelled mine. Might re-activate just for the movie.

Sometimes it's funny enough for me to step in and get some xp off a spider but most of the time I don't put up with that from my wife.

Frankly I think a lot of women defer to men in matters of bravery and strength just to be patronizing. It's like bitch I know how strong you were last night don't tell me you can't pop the top off that jar.

The answer to that question is basically the same as "Why do so many men pretend that they can't cook / don't know how to shop for groceries?"
