  • Leave every.single.dirty.dish.from.the.day neatly stacked in the sink.  The effort required to stack them is the same it would take to take care of them.

    Seconded.  Except, sometimes the clothes start out next to the hamper and then spiral out the bedroom THROUGH the doorway if there are outfit changes in a day. 

  • Snore. Especially since he's discovered that he sleeps sooooo much better when he only uses one pillow but it makes him snore. UGH. I'm about ready to kick him out of bed.

    That's me. Embarrassed

    DH does the dishes and he usually sets the dishwasher to run at night so it's full of clean dishes in the morning.

  • I love you honey, but...I can't stand it when you take out the kitchen trash and don't put a new trash bag in the can. If you can't remember to put in a new trash bag after you take the trash out to the garage, put the new trash bag in the can *before* you take the full bag out to the garage.

  • I'm must be in some good mood b/c I can't really think of anything and we KNOW that isn't the truth LOL

    Most obvious is when he leaves his last glass of the night on top of the dishwasher. Couldn't just open it up and put it in? He cleans the kitchen most nights, you'd think he'd want it to stay that way!

    EDIT: and he just walked to the dishwasher and put the glass in. Be still my heart LOL

  • "need" the computer all night for fantasy football draft, after I tell you I need it all night to do a presentation for work

    Besides that, he probably has a lot more to fill in the blank! I'm the one who leaves dirty laundry beside the hamper, i don't put my dishes in the dishwasher, i leave glasses in the living room, coffee grinds on the counter, on and on. he puts up with a lot! hahaha (sidenote, i do cook and do all the laundry and dom 90% of the other household cleaning)

  • ___flop & twitch your stupid big musclebound meatsack of a body around in the bed on our shitastic mattress in the middle of the night, whether you are awake or asleep, which then wakes me up and keeps me up for 30 min-3 hours. I want to punch you in your face when you do that. Or at minimum sleep on a separate bed frame.

  • Leave your dirty dishes on the desk in the computer room or the coffee table or wherever you happen to be when you finish eating. At leas the rest of you ladies have husbands that get them somewhere in the proximity of the sink/dishwasher.
  • leave your dirty underwear on the bathroom floor. Really? I love when I come home from work, and walk into the bathroom, and there they are.  Not. At least put them on the bedroom floor (I'm ok with baby steps).

  • ditto the dishes thing.

    leave your sweaty, nasty running clothes everywhere and then complain that the cats pee on your stuff.

    assume that I will take care of everything.

    track dirt all over the floor that our son is now crawling on.

    neglect to care for your care.

    use my camera and lose the memory card.

    don't listen to me when I talk.

    spill cereal and not pick it up.

    dump coffee and not wipe it up.

    leave Splenda packets everywhere.

    (I could go on for days)

  • ... don't even make an effort to help. 

    ... act like because you work in the summer, what you are doing is more important than what I am doing (raising your childen dumbass) and therefore you can't be bothered to help.

    ... complain that you don't get to spend time with us during the summer but when I ask you to help and hang out with the boys now, you act like it is the end of the world.

    ... act like your teaching job is more important than my  job and therefore assume that you work harder and are smarter than me (even though we both know that this isn't true... that I work my ass off AND am smarter than you!)

  • ...you get mad when I am talking to you from another room and you can't hear me or if I'm walking in front of you and my voice doesn't travel back to you. But, don't do the same thing to me and then get mad when I ask you, politely, to repeat what you said.

    ...get mad at me for "Wasting Time" on Facebook, the Nest, or other forums and then spend the entire day that I'm off working sitting on the couch reading your Camero or Harley forums. Double standard much?

  • ...work till 8 or later every night without telling me what time to expect you, so I can't start dinner till quarter past late o'clock.
  • Leave your godforsaken Diet Coke cans lined up on the end table. Seriously sick of waking up to 10 cans sitting on the table each morning.

    Ignore me when I talk, then get annoyed when I keep repeating myself. Well if you heard me the first time...effing acknowledge me! 

    Make a big deal when I ask you to do projects around the house and tell me that you "have it under control" and don't need me to "nag" you. Really? We've had a bowl under the leaky kitchen sink for at least 6 months, the walkway you started 1.5 years ago is still not finished...  Yeah...you've got it under control.

    When you use the rest of something (milk, bread, cereal, etc) and can't be bothered to throw the packaging away and just leave it on the counter, in the freezer or in the fridge. The trash can is not that far away!


     

     

     

     

  • I know this is not the intention of the post, but I'm starting to feel really bad! I do WAY to many of these things to my husband. I can honestly say I don't do them on purpose... haha
