You'll take what you get and you'll like it.

My beef is with all the products lining the bathtub waiting to be knocked over. I'm even clumsier in the morning and sometimes that shit just sets me off. #triggered

"even" isn't a thing, by the way - at least, in my experience. What you need here is more hooks.

Time to head to the hardware store to buy some hooks.

Don't get that backwards and go looking for hookers with your hardware... that won't help the relationship...

@Cole ........ there ya go!

Example ...... when we moved into this house, our bathroom had only one medicine cabinet, which she filled up in short order. So, rather that trying to find a place for my razor, I just installed my own medicine cabinet ......

Don't you mean that you installed another cabinet for her?

Apparently saying "sweetie, can we please split the hooks up a touch more evenly? I would prefer if my wet towel didn't dry on top of my house coat" in a polite, flat voice was much too aggressive for her

I have found that most of the time ...... it's best not to "say" ANYTHING.

That includes shaking your head, rolling your eyes, mumbling or walking away ..... if she is not done with you .......

Figured she would do the same thing as me, but I guess not.

You may find it helpful to have negotiated places to be able to "toss your stuff".

For example, in our house, those places for me, are on top of my dresser (for general stuff) and on the top of the clothes hamper (for clothes).

The key word is negotiated.

I'm afraid silence just fuels the fire as it leads to acquisitions of not listening or paying attention.

But, but, then, how do you keep her stuff from spilling out onto the floor ......??

It does spill out. Then I have to give up more space or make another trip to Goodwill with a load of never worn sweaters from 1992.

Isn't it amazing how women can pack so many clothes into each linear foot of a closet rack ......

We (she) had a large walk in closet, back in MO. I had reinforced the 2" wooden rods with several braces. However, one morning, she opened up the closet and saw all her clothes on the floor and the braces all pulled out from the wall.

I didn't say a word ........ she said "I guess it's time I thinned out my clothes" .......

Yes, I'm bored today.

Oh, but, I've found out it's best to maintain eye contact while her stainless steel tongue is cutting you to pieces .......

LOL I knew what you meant. They are so commonly called "drones" that I don't even think about the misnomer anymore.


Maybe I have more drones around...

I google image searched "stainless steel tongue" and this came up:



Edit: It was actually from an Amazon page and it's a real item that's for sale: https://www.amazon.com/Master-Stainl.../dp/B019G1VOKS

From the product description:

• Each opening secures independently
• A unique way to silence your partner
• Made of stainless steel
