What Trivial Thing Does Your Spouse/SO Do Wrong?

[disney4us2002]

Puts the toilet paper feeding from the bottom!! For those who say thats not wrong, the patent for toilet paper dispenser shows the roll with the paper feeding from the top

As well as the design is either right side up or upside down! Grrr. Seems so obvious to me.

I don't know of any of my women friends who don't only want veto power when it comes to choosing a restaurant. I never want to pick - only say yay or nay.

He also adds an extra syllable to the word “athletic.” It’s 3 syllables, right? He adds an extra “a” - ath a le tic.

My DH intentionally adds syllables to words or pronounces them incorrectly. He knows darn well the right way but does it to be “funny.” Right, ha ha.

DH eats corn on the cob wrong. Instead of eating across like a typewriter, he revolves the cob munching all around one end before moving a bit then repeating the process to the other end.

Me: Isn't that milk too old?
DH: No. The expiration date says it's still good.
Me: But that's only if it hasn't been opened.
DH: The expiration date says it's still good.


Whew! Glad I got that off my chest! lol

My husband refuses to have the sheets on the bed tucked in, so every morning they are a tangled mess.

I am POSITIVE my trivial things annoy DH way more than anything he does annoys me. He is perfection.

He cooks every meal.
He cleans the house.
He does the laundry.
He irons his own clothes for work.
He fixes everything that breaks, and if he doesn't know how to fix it, he goes on youtube and learns how.
He rubs my feet every night.
He does the bookkeeping for the business.
When he starts a project, he finishes it and does not rest until it's done.

Oh, and he is handsome as all get out!


Ooh oooh...I've got one! He will wear a t-shirt until it has more holes than swiss cheese, despite having a closet full of new shirts with tags. I know....he's a monster.

My wife takes eggs out of the carton in an inappropriate manner. She starts at one end and works toward the other end, which results in an unbalanced carton. I constantly have to rearrange the eggs.

There are plenty of ways to remove eggs in an acceptable manner. Why does she insist on doing it incorrectly?

Omg...I thought I was the only one who took eggs out in a balanced way...too funny.

Um, that's the right way to eat corn on the cob. I have only seen people eat across in a joking way or in a cartoon.

Leaves cabinet doors and pantry doors open all the time. He had a closure problem!

He also adds an extra syllable to the word “athletic.” It’s 3 syllables, right? He adds an extra “a” - ath a le tic.

My dh adds a syllable to combined...it should be 2 syllables com bined...he does 3 com bine ed....drives me nuts.

Mine won't even throw a meal in the crockpot.

The thread is three pages long so far, and I'm only the second guy to comment. And the other doesn't have a S/O either.

Interesting ......................

Where did you find this perfect man? I started training mine at 19 and I'm still training him 35 years later.....

Doesn't put his clothes in the laundry basket

Doesn't close the door to his office/man cave when he's on a work conference call, so I get to listen to his shout-talking at really loud volumes until I go and shut the door.

Never puts his wallet & car keys in the same spot. Then asks me where I put them when he can't find them.

Why can he just put them on the countertop next to the back door (our driveway is in the back, there are key hooks). And how can a grown man leave the house without his wallet or phone? Goes to the store, I remember something else I need, I call, and hear his phone ringing. He works from home, will mute himself on a conference call but not use earbuds so I have to listen.

Kitchen annoyances, he won’t heat up a pan before starting to cook, he won’t season with salt and pepper when cooking, every time I’ve asked him to put meat in cold water to defrost he put it in hot (luckily I always check), if he’s cleaning up the sink after dinner, instead of putting silverware in the dishwasher, he puts it all in a cup or pan “to soak.” And putting a knife with residual cream cheese or peanut butter in water dies nothing. Oh, and when he helps unpack groceries, that’s literally what he does, takes them out of the bags and puts them on the counter or table.

That is how I work through an egg carton... I usually do eggs in pairs no matter what so I just do the ones across from each other and work my way down the carton. It just seems wrong to do it any other way.

Mine does that too! It freaks me out!
