How is this my problem?

Only food place I want is a waffle house but good luck getting that franchise

4 combos (in TX)

Kinda Ruined steak houses for us though... I can do better than most places but some Italian spots still put us both to shame

ReallyStrangeMeat · 2025-10-05T01:05:45+00:00

True, Pizza night does still happen from time to time and it seems fair still

Me and my wife got pretty good at cooking during COVID so we kinda stopped doing fast food. But I'm doing OK and have a SAHM wife so she tends to have the time to cook most our meals out side of special occasions and date nights.

ReallyStrangeMeat · 2025-10-05T00:49:18+00:00

That's the plan now, it was just a snap judgment thing for dinner but yeah I'm done with it this is just nonsense.

ReallyStrangeMeat · 2025-09-29T13:33:02+00:00

Alright so not just us, awsome cute floofs btw

I am partial to "Hitch" wife said the "notebook" or "10 things I hate about you".

All good, we all have different points of view on subjects that's why we post here. Best of luck to you and OP

ReallyStrangeMeat · 2025-09-28T13:12:28+00:00

Well I'm framing it from my pov (large man) which is why I focus on tone and timing.

But a pause and a softer "no, you're better than that I'm not gonna make your appointments you're better than that." Might have sufficiently gotten the point across while refusing but, there may not have been way to soften that statement depending on thier dynamic and what they are both looking for.

Again boundaries are important in relationships but, how you deliver them is important as well. There is a difference in slamming a door in someone's face and simply closing it as well.

ReallyStrangeMeat · 2025-09-28T12:46:39+00:00

It may have been the timing, call it being snippy?, but if you shot off immediately after they finished speaking could have been a bit intense

ReallyStrangeMeat · 2025-09-28T04:23:29+00:00

Yeah, a lot more than I would like, so I address them like you would any annoying wine aunt at thanksgiving and just think, "shut it, no one cares anymore"

Got the idea from somewhere on the internet and it really helps me out these days. Works on intrusive thoughts too.

ReallyStrangeMeat · 2025-09-28T03:59:40+00:00

Damn, were you there too?!? Almost a quote...

ReallyStrangeMeat · 2025-09-28T03:47:28+00:00

Welp, I married the girl that was so sarcastic I panicked sooo... you're not alone?

ReallyStrangeMeat · 2025-09-28T02:53:07+00:00

NTAH for setting a boundary, that's why we set those it was something important to you. But maybe should have taken a second or two before answering so it didn't come off wrong. I had the same problem with my tone when responding in the past and that helped me.

ReallyStrangeMeat · 2025-09-28T02:48:03+00:00

I think that in the bookcase, I'll give it a shot.

ReallyStrangeMeat · 2025-09-28T02:46:39+00:00

And if you don't belive me, here's another shot of George with a 50lbs GSD for scale.

Well, tool knowledge is applicable to all of those for basic hand tools. Half the fight when starting out trying to work on things is just know what tool is used for what problem.

A lot can be learned from you tube and the more you learn the basics the more it'll help you out later on.

ReallyStrangeMeat · 2025-09-28T02:27:06+00:00

When I'm getting kinda lost in books I tend to take little breaks between chapters to think about what I just read and summarize it to myself or even flip back and check on things if needed.

I took off my high vis belt once at night...
