For making a fabulous pot of ham beans... and not pouring off the first boil... and not adding Bean-O to the finished pot... and not telling her about those ommissions... on a Sunday night... when she had to conduct a team meeting at work the next morning...

Maybe I'm lucky or maybe she just DGAF anymore, but I haven't gotten the stinkeye in quite a while. Even when 2 giant boxes full of used Hoosiers showed up and I left them in the dining room.

Have you noticed a foul smell in the house lately?

In reply to Fueled by Caffeine: I saw Rocket From The Tombs a couple months ago at a dive in Pontiac MI, and I learned that RFTC is an offshoot of RFTT.

Back on topic:

... for stacking a set of new-to-me wheels and tires in the garage where they intrude into the arc of her door.

... Got it again for suggesting she park outside.

I get it all the time. Most recent: turning off the TCS Sunday in the snow storm to listen to the new exhaust on the rev limiters.

I know I'm going to get the stink eye for when more parts to fix GM's f ups on the Suburban.... But Jeg's hadn't raised the price on the ls7 style lifters yet unlike Summit... But now all the "cheap" parts are bought. Just need the tuning software, cam, valve springs, and maybe rockers.... Just another grand needed.... And another stink eye or three.

Apparently, "We should have a petting zoo at the wedding reception," isn't a helpful suggestion. I still think it's a great idea.

PIITB?

Also, for FWD E-brake drifting in the grocery store parking lot

Also, for suggesting a dropped, LS powered, IRS swapped S10 would be a decent substitute for a "Friday night cruise-in muscle car" when we were dreaming up wish-list cars this weekend (she's wanted a Chevelle since before we were dating).

Also, for being a non-stop steering-wheel drummer to any song that comes on the radio

Tapping the brakes to the beat of the music when coming to a stop.

Beeping the car horn when she walks in front of the car.

Commenting: "Those look delicious!" when she pointed out a herd of deer on the side of the road to the kids.

After hearing a coyote call when we were on a walk in the woods: Telling my 10 year old son to stop whining and walk, because he was too big to carry and still small enough to be eaten by coyotes.

One of our wedding guests brought her horse to the reception. It was quite the hit! Just sayin...

How heavy of a petting zoo are you suggesting?

Those are things I would say to the kiddos when I was a camp counselor...

Why would you do that? It should drift better without the weight.

Taking her to Savannah for valentine's weekend....to stand in the freezing ass cold and watch me drive Roebling Road.

Actually, she was a real trooper about it, but i owe her now.

Amazing how we've been doing it incorrectly for so many years. Or how we're doing it that way just to piss them off.

I think accepting someone else's proposal would piss off almost any wife.. I mean, you're already married so she's not going to be asking right?

One wife is enough work for anybody, I think.

I get the stink eye for the daily mention of how badly I want a Dodge Challenger R/T. I see it as marinating her brain, getting it ready for the time when I randomly have one "follow me home".

We spent 4 nights in Vegas last week/over the weekend. Went and saw Blue Man Group at my request. I got front row tickets. When we walked into the theater and she saw folks were putting on ponchos, if looks could kill, she turned to me, used my full name, informed me how much she liked her clothes, and what she'd do to me if "my" show ruined her clothes.

We barely got a splatter our direction.

Because we berkeleying want to."
