I must be one of the lucky ones!!!! When I am home my Wife and I cook and brew together. When I said I wanted to start brewing,,,she shrugged and said, "well you spend every Saturday outside Smoking ribs and Brisket, Makes sense to make 10 Gallons of beer in the process. Thats just how we do things. Damn I miss that woman!
 
Look, I'm just a gnome with a giggling problem that wants to see posts from ladies I've never met on the internet.

Frankly, I'm having a hard time seeing why that should be a problem for anyone.

My wife's sister's husband had the same idea. Well - you can fill in the rest.


Now I can't let her see this post either.
 
My spouse has absolutely zero interest in reading, or posting in, a forum about making beer.
I have tried several times to get her to come with me to various parties and other events put on by local homebrew clubs to no avail. She will occasionally accompany me to beer festivals so long as I'm going with non-brewing friends.

I'm in the same boat. She does accompany me to various parties and events to be my designated driver, but that means I have to leave earlier than I want.
 
My wife would never come on to chat. She liked the people she finally met at homebrew day, but she is only really comfortable with her close friends. She likes to voyeur into other peoples lives, but I doubt homebrewing friends of mine would count. I think she couldn't care less about what we do on here.

And for the record, I also vote for Bob to be let in. I know eventually he will start to know enough about brewing to start trying to tell Yooper how to do it! And chaos ensues!
 
Well, sure, that's a nice guy. But geez. All I need is him being on here being a nice guy. That's ruin my reputation as a kick-ass whip wielding dominatrix. We can't have that.

But it's the nice, unassuming guys that frequent the dominatrixes...or so i'm told...:p

As for my SWMBO, it ain't happening either. She already says that every other word out of my mouth is beer, the last thing she needs is to read posts from others with the same "problem"...
 
Oh, great. I just told Bob that you wanted to vote him in, and he said, "Oh, tell him 'thanks for the peppers- we use them every day and we love them. Thank you again'".

Well, sure, that's a nice guy. But geez. All I need is him being on here being a nice guy. That's ruin my reputation as a kick-ass whip wielding dominatrix. We can't have that.

Well, if you were to post a few pics of you in your dominatrix outfit, with your whip, of course, I'm sure your rep would be safe. :mug:



I'm just sayin'............:D
 
You kidding? If my wife saw how much I post during my "work" day, I'd never have a free moment at home. "You don't do anything all day at work, do this ."
 
Oh, yeah...the OP. HELL NO!!! I don't bug her or stick my nose into her hobbies, I don't want her doing that to my hobbies...or their adjuncts. Although I DO let her make suggestions on what to brew.
 
Looks like noone nibbles LG.....Guess you get this week's

Award... :)
 
Well, in 40 posts not one spouse came on for you to fondle...I'm sure there's some statistic in there that can be bent to prove that it ain't gonna happen. :)

You figure in a whole evening not one of them got druk enough to take you up on it.

Plus I wanted to subscribe anyway in case they do, so I thought this would be a good way. ;)

Then you get the candyman in a van award! :)
 
She can come on whenever she wants to, she just has no interest.

This is true for me in SO many different ways.... :p

BTW, I do have the nuts to bring her on here... unfortunately they're firmly in her grasp and that could be a good thing or a REALLY bad thing...

Why, is your wife a Republican? ;) Sorry I couldn't resist :D :mug:
 
I'm another one who wife gets enough talk about beer that she would never want to come on here and get even more of it, but I did leave one of my threads open the other day and she stormed into the bedroom and said, "whats SWMBO mean?" So I told her and she just went "oh" turned around and walked off. Was pretty funny actually!
 
Kellie is happy to help with brewing. She even went to the Septembeerfest and spent two hours in the sun putting wristbands on people. But she has no interest in forums of any kind.
 
I would tell her about it, but she couldn't care less about any forum let alone one about beer. She likes the lighter beers I make and slowly she is appreciating more complex styles. She always finds something else to do when I brew and only very rarely gives me grief, but she is certainly willing to offer a couple sixers when we go to people's houses...
The joke at my house is me "Guess what today is?!". The wife groans and the 8 year old says "Ahhh c'mon, not the BEER store!"
