I called this "Arby's Chicken". My ex would do this and I would drive to an Arby's and see how far she's let me get in the ordering process before she'd blurt out where she wanted eat.

This is brilliant. Unless she doesn't blink, and then you have to eat Arby's.

This is because when men feel trapped it’s because we aren’t getting laid and can’t gently caress off to play with model trains or some poo poo, when women feel trapped it’s because they are worried they will be murdered. It’s not as funny to write “oh whoops caught another shiner for spending too long at the grocery store, clumsy me, right?”

Edit: I’m not making light of domestic violence, I just think that in general, it’s harder for the ways in which women are abused and minimized to be made light of than it is for men, because men are so rarely in danger in relationships the way women are. Also some of the grossest posts in the thread highlight that the poster is in fact the butt of the joke for staying with their awful partners (like in AFH’s posts). It’s not coming across in all of them, but that’s what I’m getting from most of them, an “I’m trapped because I’m lazy and scared I’ll never find someone with boobs this big” kinda stuff.

Pretty sure not every woman in a lovely relationship is getting beaten up.

It's probably just all dudes in here because it's something they rarely get to vent about, whereas women are discussing this poo poo 24/7 with eeeveryone

I just got home from a long day of work and the kitchen sink is full of even more dishes than the one plate I put in from my breakfast. He's at home all day, why the gently caress can't he take the 10 seconds to rinse the drat things off and reuse them? Or put them in the dishwasher?! I'll just rearrange them anyways, but at least that's half the work done. Ugh, these probably aren't even all of his dishes and cups...

He left an empty chip bag out on the counter. Is he also blind?! Fine, fine. I'll toss it in th- what the gently caress?! The garbage is full too! I will drive these jam encrusted butter knives into his eyes so he at least has the excuse that he can't see when the trash needs to be taken out.

God, how many years have I put up with this bullshit?

Fine, I'll just tell him to get on top of this poo poo and remind him of all the other chores he's neglected. And believe him when he says he'll do it later. Then I'll just end up doing it for him when he forgets because he's too busy playing video games. It's like I'm his goddamn mother.

This is why we don't have sex anymore: I don't gently caress children.

Can’t wait for tomorrow when you remark like a loving dumbass that you ate a lot of chili last night with a proud look on your face like a dog that caught it’s own tail in between wondering why you can’t understand where this heartburn came from.

I carpool with a co-worker like this. They can show up at my house an hour late to the point where we would never be on-time for work but unless I'm sitting in the car with the engine running I become the reason we are late.

Work starts at 8:30 and they don't even get to my house for our 45 minute commute until 8:30. I pull out of my driveway at 8:31 and they tell our boss they had to wait on me because it took me 30 seconds to lock my door and check my mail.

There was a long running story(possibly fake) in the confessions thread about a guy who ends up sleeping with his much younger and attractive co worker and his numerous attempts to hide the affair from his wife. Then poo poo gets weird when his mistress ends up befriending his wife and basically spending all of her free time at his house. It was my drug for months. I wonder what happened to that dork.

Horny Dad left his wife and moved in with his hot young co-worker and they have amazing sex all the time and everything worked out for the best and his ex-wife and his new girlfriend who is half her age with twice as big of boobs are best friends and it's definitely not weird for his pubescent son, at all, for his dad to be loving some hot girl like 5 years older than he is. A Happy Ending for Everyone, and everyone clapped.

(That was, without a doubt, the most boring poo poo ever and I hated every one of those posts. I simply cannot celebrate someone cheating on their wife and allowing some young person to play psycho headgames with them. Those posts were all clearly typed 1-handed.

Also pissing in the sink uses a lot less water. When you wash your hands you can also clean the piss from the sink with the soapy wash.

No, it's fine that you drank a bottle of wine by yourself and were glued to your phone all night.

I didn't even notice how you had it tilted away from me a little more than normal.

It's cool that you went to bed nearly two hours earlier than normal and encouraged me to stay up and watch another movie.

As I'm in day two of three of the worst vacation I've ever had, instead of posting the litany of offensives, I'll just rhetorically ask: how many vacations have you had where you lost weight?

That is, your partner said something so hurtful or upset you so much that you lost your appetite for a meal (or more)? How many times have you gone somewhere different from your same old same old where you were originally excited to try different food or drink a lot but you were so wound up that you stayed in the hotel room by yourself and just sipped water to keep yourself hydrated?

I know I said it's a rhetorical question, but my answer is 80% of the time.
