It could just be me but I think he was suggesting some innuendo, as in did you mean elbow or vagina?
Well it wouldn't be the first time things go over my head laugh
It'll be a big one if it goes over your head.

Pretty advanced stuff, that is.

This made me laugh far more than it should any adult. It might also be because I have tennis elbow at the moment.

It's our youngest son's birthday today, the wife decides to message the local radio station to get him a mention on the radio.
She doesn't mention that she has done this to anyone else so, the only person listening out for it is her, she's also the only person in the room where the radio is.
I'm in the living room finishing my coffee and about to head into my office to start work, the son, who's birthday it is, is upstairs getting ready for school when he gets a mention on the radio.
Only person who heard it is her, apparently it's our fault that we weren't standing by waiting for something to happen that we didn't know about and she'll never do anything nice for any of us ever again.
If she had asked them to do the mention sometime between 8.10 and 8.30 the two of them would have been in the car and would have heard it but apparently this bit of logic does not compute.
Off she went in a huff which will no doubt last for at least 24 hours.

This strikes a chord with me in my house - my mrs would do similar! Reminds me though - (and completely irrelevant) I had six bumps from Gus Honeybun in 1976 - pretty sure Judy Spiers did the announcement!!

We have a walk in shower in the ensuite with a glass wall , i treated the glass with some rain x to minimise the amount of cleaning of the rain drop stains, the mrs says “ I don’t like it “ wtf is there to not like about it ? Now we have water staining in the shower .

We have the same thing in our en suite, I tried something similar to RainX (actually something that works far better on the car glasswork) and it didn't seem to make any difference in the shower.

Peace and quiet.
Well done.

I rainx’d the missus car at the weekend and this morning before she left I thought I’d demonstrate it by throwing water onto the windscreen.

Unfortunately the auto wipers came on and she happened to standing in the wrong place.

I was not popular

Last night I cooked a Shepherds pie for when Mrs Caddyshack got it. I said “ just nipping to the shop as didn’t realise were we’re out of cheese and milk for the mash topping”

Made the pie and another one batch cooked for another day.

Today she called me at work “where is the cheese you bought”

Me: in the mash for the pie

Her: I wanted cheese in my lunch

Me: sorry, I used the cheese I bought for the meal I made you

Her: put the phone down on me

To be fair that is taking just in time shopping a bit far. Having a bit of cheese in stock is hardly going mad … 😀

Mine asked me to search for something whilst I was on my laptop, I passed her it saying here you go, have a look yourself (in case it was something private) she replied, can you do it, I'm not computer illegitimate like you! rofl

If she's asked you to search for ' something' surely she doesn't mind you knowing?

Oooh, that one. I don't mind as-such, but when it descends into being a voice-operated keyboard, she can FRO. A no-longer regular question,

Mrs_Shtu said:
What's on TV tonight?
Riiiight. I get to spend 20 minutes looking through dozens of channels across several hours to offer some suggestions as to what Madame might care to watch?

Or - Your own laptop is right there, how about looking for yourself? What she really means is,

Mrs_Shtu said:
When and on what channel is this specific thing I want to watch? I CBA looking.

My Mrs is dreadful for that - "Can you look up...", "What on Telly tonight?", "What's the weather going to be?". She thinks I'm some form of Alexa.

Also, spying on the children - "Can you see where X is on 'Find My'?", "Can you ask if Y wants to Skype tonight?", "Have you looked at Z's Facebook/Insta feed to see what they are doing?".

Then there is the "Let's watch a film". I pull up Sky. Nothing on that she wants to watch. Switch to Netflix. Nothing. Amazon Prime. Nothing. She basically doesn't like films. They can't be action, subtitled, American, super-hero, violent, documentaries, serious, comedy, sci-fi, sexy, horror, sporty, old, something we've seen before. The Venn diagram of the remaining films is vanishingly small to non-existent. A new James Bond will pass. But any weekend when we have a free evening, we go through the same ritual - "There must be some new films on".

Or the really bad one.
"What would you like to watch Mrs Snoggledog?"
"Don't mind. Up to you."
Something interesting selected from the collection of disks.... Press play...

"Oooo. Not that. I hate that"

They're all the same wherever they are in the world, and when they get in a huff and you ask what's wrong, they all reply, "nothing" when it's clearly something! biggrin
