SWMBO being COMPLETELY unreasonable

[cheezydemon3]

If I knew you this could have been amusing. I'm going to assume you intended to be funny.

Yes, funny from a guy with no wife or girlfriend or respect for the fairer sex.

In many cases, I'll agree... But, he should have either selected a better spot to have the bone soaking/cleaning, or done a better job of hiding it during the process.

I don't know. When bone soaking isn't permitted, it's time for a new woman of the house!
Finding a better spot to soak your bone is what makes them mad most the time.

Well, if she's not doing a good job at cleaning the bone to begin with, then yeah, you should look for an upgrade.

 

[45_70sharps]

Yep, probably just go around back and bury the bone. See if it come out clean. If not, try and soak it in cider.

I am confused. What are we talking about again?

Creamy got in trouble for soaking his bone without permission. He said he wanted to make it look scary for the children on Halloween.

I think she was more upset over what was floating in the container than the bone itself.

IMO, the kids probably wouldn't have known what the bones were from. I'd get some hunter friends to donate animal bones and use those instead. Things that can be recognized, and some not... Skulls could be a good starting spot. Especially over the door.

where have you been?

duct taping a cat's mouth to your airlock?


My ex would soak the bone for me.

 

[45_70sharps]

Not my airlock. I'm afraid of the off flavors from the cat's breath.

I think we've all seen the video of what you did to that poor frog last time.

James, your first mistake was in letting a *woman* into the man-cave. From all I have been taught that's a big no-no...
Having said that, I have no man-cave. SWMBO runs the house, and I just take up space that could be better devoted to Wicker and Daisy motifs through out the house.(dammit, next I will be complaining about the fact that our duvets don't match the drapes... SAVE ME!)

Then she plugged-in those stupid deodorizer/nightlights shaped like butterflies. It sucked the testosterone clean out of the room.

Duuude, I hate those things.

I've found having a creepy basement that is only accessible from the outside makes an awesome man cave. The creepier the better so SWMBO won't go in there...that is as long as the butterfly air fresheners haven't sucked enough out of you that you find it creepy too.

My basement smells like flowers, not mildew (as a proper basement should). It's depressing.

i used to have a farm of ants for my bone cleaning. id put an old aquarium over the ant farm (by ant farm i mean a boat load of ants in the woods) with the skulls and bones of animals...they would be nice and cleaned up with in a week.

You should be tar and feathered for making pulled pork in a crock pot.

He's from NY they don't know any better, after my expereince up there with "ginger and rosemary bbq" I believe that good bbq comes from the south exclusively.

I really can't see how a pork bone in a bowl with peroxide is a big deal, your shoulder bone wind chime thing is a little strange but hey it would be cool at halloween.

Once I was doing some yard work and it got dark, gate to my back yard was shut so I opened up the french doors to my bar area and parked my new 4-wheeler in there. SWMBO comes home from work at like midnight and almost trips over it. hahaha It STAYED in the house that night though. My point is you gotta stand your ground, I know it's tough, then again, I'm divorced so maybe you shouldn't take my advice.

Exactly!! Then we wouldn't even be having this thread.

I used to joke to the guys about how my ex wife did not know what the inside of my "gun room" looked like. She looked at the room when we bought the house, I put a lock on the door and that was it for years. I asked her once what color the carpet was in there and she replied that it was the same color as the rest of the house, of coarse that room was tiled. No happy ending though, she did decide to take a peak in there on her way out for the last time, and I ended up not being able to find a very nice Colt revolver among a few other pistols, then remmeber how the lock suddenly quit functioning one day I put 2 and 2 together.

Perhaps you want to find a darker cave to hide these treasures?

I agree with this comment, next time just keep your secret treasures a secret. On a shelf in the guest room, no... under the bed in the guest room, in a secret locked box... yes. Just make sure she can't figure out how to open it or ****y trap so it makes a lot of noise when she does try, maybe you can catch her in the act and stop the whole event from happening. Just say hey, that's a surprise I was saving for you, what are you trying to do? Ruin the surprise? Then buy her a necklace, but make sure it doesn't have dried out bones hanging from it.

And lovingly refer to it as 'my precious...'

Oh wait, yeah, probably not a good idea... has anyone already suggested just throwing your bones in an ant bed next time... outside!! Then you can collect them in the secret box, once they are all cleaned up for ya.

Ahh, yes, there you go.... but how would she feel if she found the ant farm? Surely you can find a pile of ants somewhere outside...

 

[Airplanedoc]

Maybe if you had a garage or storage unit to put it/them (the bones, not swmbo) in

You might want to check with Airborneguy but wouldn't a storage locker with bones bleaching in it raise some red flags in NYC?

Maybe not as much as him making liver sausages with his pastry chef friend.

You could always tell the wife that you'll make less of those if she lets you have the bones.

I think she should have let you keep the bones, but take them outside somewhere, an ant pile would be great.

Don't you have enough fire ants down there? Don't go feeding them meat from bones now.

Ah, just more to kill, grits... grits, then a little water the next day, watch 'em explode. We do it for fun.
