Tennessee williams Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Well, I done did it again. I figured I'd be a good other half and took my bunkhouse boss lady out to eat this evening. We were sittin at the table and I was looking at The Wire on my phone. The wife was playing some kind of game on her phone when an advertisement for makeup with a hot girl in it came on. I said that girl is hot. (You'd think that was the part I got in trouble about but you'd be wrong.) My wife said, yes she is, that's the same kind of makeup I wear. I shouldn't have asked her if she was putting it on right but it just slipped out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widder, SASS #59054 Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Sounds like you had a double portion of crow for supper. So, instead of getting her that new iron and ironing board for Christmas, looks like she's now eligible for a weekly house maid to come in and do it all up for her. Now we know why they refer to your home club as 'WARtrace'. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widder, SASS #59054 Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 The incident above is true...... totally true. Ole TW got swung at, but she missed. The thing that bothers me the most is that our wives should feel grateful because we sometimes look at another WOMAN. They should feel glad it wasn't a man. TW....... keep ducking! ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 I was going to ask TN when the swelling would go down, but it appears his quick reflexes saved him. I am sure he will sleep well tonight knowing that he is safe from his wife’s attempts at giving him a black eye. Safe and sound asleep in the same room with that same wonderful lady…yep, all safe…just go to sleep TN. It’ll be all right…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado Coffinmaker Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Was at dinner with my Sweetheart a while back. Real nice restaurant for a little celebration. Was a youngish couple a table over and "his" sell rang. He said "I have to take this" and started his "business" conversation on the phone. She promptly slapped he napkin on the table and walked out. BRAVO!! I HATE Cell Phones. A gross bane on society. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdeacon Joe Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 We rarely go out to eat anymore, too expensive for mediocre food. Also, very uncomfortable for my wife. But we will occasionally treat ourselves. At the table I might pull my phone out to at a photo of her, and she might pull up her Weight Watchers app to check the points on something. Other than that, phones stay in pocket or purse. We kid each other a lot, poke fun at each other. Ends up with giggles and a comment, "I hope we never grow up!"

There's nothing in my life happening so urgently on the interweb that it can't wait until I get home. I don't text*, I don't play games, if I need it for ANYTHING, it's mainly to call home when I'm at Walmart to ask about groceries or something else I think that she might want. Pictures in case of emergency, or call LEOs if "something" happens that needs their attention. *The only reason I might have for texting is something on the order of "Text me directions" or something of the sort.

Widder, SASS #59054 Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 WELL, I'll spill the beans on TW and his Bunkhouse Boss. After nearly 24 years of marriage, she still thinks he is sexy. Every time he walks by her, she says......... "what an A$$". and ifn ya dont believe me...... just ask TW. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
