Do your wives get mad?

[nukinfuts29]

SWMBO is very stereotypical of a type of relationship many people here have with their wives, but not necessarily the type all of us have with our wives. I do not have a SWMBO, I have a partner.

I have to agree with the above. My wife would kill me if I tried to characterize her as a swmbo. I've always found that term strange. I have an ex-wife too, she was a swmbo. To me, swmbo = ex or soon to be ex. No one should be married to a swmbo.

You guys are being too literal with the SWMBO. It's intended to just indicate wife or g/f not that we are whipped by a female.

brewing funds have no limit in MY house but i am fairly reasonable on what i buy and how often i brew. competition season is beginning tho and ive ordered over 20lbs of hops. to me, those are very reasonable purchases. how else is one to win ninkasi without a proper stock in supplies?

THIS is also the way >I< took it.

I guess just the same as we can't say that MrManifesto's gf/wife is a down trodden woman with no opinion or say it's unwise to say that men who listen to their wives are lushes with no backbone and not real men.

I think that's what started this tangent, ego. Like I said, it's finding that special one and sometimes some don't.

Can we go back to complaining about our wives again? That was more fun.

I picked up a 99$ craigslist 17 cf upright freezer for a fermentation chamber build last Friday. I came into the house with my head hung low and told her that I had to grab the trailer and go pick it up. SWMBO said "Why didn't you just go to Lowes and buy one?"

Now you know what to do about your next purchase!

I couldn't justify 5-600$ for how badly I am going to modify this freezer. I think I got such a good response because I started it with "Honey, you are about to get your bathtub back."

Some of us actually like our wives and consider them worthy of having a say in the house. Do you slap her around when she questions your authority or just ignore her?

A good slap every now and then keeps a woman in order...

Ya know, that's not even close to being funny. Fairly offensive IMO.

 

[ABrewingApe]

Fairly offensive? Saying outright that it's not just acceptable but desirable to hit women is deeply messed-up and wholly inappropriate.

It shouldn't make a difference, but in the event that it helps keep amc22 suitably embarrassed to let #@$%@$# like that out of his face: there are women here.

I registered here back in August but I had been putting off brewing anything because I didn't want to spend the money yet. My gf basically forced me (twisted my arm she did) to get started by buying me a $200 gc from Northern Brewer for my b-day earlier this month. I think she's probably ok with my new hobby. It's too bad she doesn't like beer. This would be more fun if I could share it with her.

Take your 27 posts and go waste the future ones on yahoo answers, we don't need or want that crap here. My other half comes from an abusive previous relationship and the damage it has done to her will probably never go away. The emotional toll it takes on a woman makes any action or amount of physical abuse from a man completely unacceptable, and there is absolutely nothing funny about your post.

In the future if you have something like that to say just step away from the keyboard and keep your mouth shut.

I was going to delete the last few posts, but that would imply this thread is worth keeping open.
