It's not about $1.50.

The stupid things that incite arguments...
I swear I'm not angry about the extra dollar-fifty I spent on his razors by getting the ones he said to get, the wrong ones that still fit but are unnecessary. No, I'm pissed that instead of listening to me or even putting on his damn glasses to look for himself, he ripped open the box, making sure I couldn't return them even if I wanted to, and checked to see if they fit. Of course they fit: it said so on the box. The point is, there's no reason to get the goods with "added functionality" if you're not going to use said "added functionality."

Stupid.

It just pisses me off that my word's not good enough.

i have been a husband for quite a while. as a sub-species, we're not really that well suited to thinking. Your best bet is murder or forgiveness. Either way.

I, too, hate when my words are not good enough. And I feel that way often. I'm surrounded by people who don't listen to me, despite the fact that I am a keen and loving observer of their lives.

If it makes you feel any better, my husband majorly pissed me off today, too.   (grumble, grumble)

Julie -- it's your use of the word Jimmies that makes me love you.

As far as the thinking thing... it's a strange sort of affinity to our mule-like nature that creates the necessity of a show steeped stubborn.

Jimmies ? What on EARTH do Jimmies have to do with ice cream ? (This MUST be one of those times when we remember that US English is a foreign language that just happens to sound like UK English,  and should be  taught in schools as such.

Jimmies are a very distinct regional word for 'chocolate sprinkles' that only highly sophisticated and wonderfully colorful people use.

I love the word "jimmies." I didn't think anyone used it anymore. I am happy.
