onionbag 1 Posted March 26, 2013 You may have noticed me referring to Mrs. onionbag in the past. I'm ashamed to say she's a figment of my imagination..........I live with my Lhasa Apso. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kcore 0 Posted March 26, 2013 I have a similar tradition. As we approached our 45th anniversary, I thought should I start collecting rep watches, or go for a 40-something mistress. I went for the mistress, and now I am living in my new flat, I can have both. That's historical! LMAO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gyddyp 0 Posted March 26, 2013 am just starting out on this hobby. me looking for watch number three.... Mrs Gyddyp "Why do you need another watch? All they do is tell the time" Me "and what is it exactly your diamonds and pearls do? other than looking good and being genuine?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seclark007 11 Posted March 27, 2013 I just read many of these out loud to my Mrs....who found many of your replies quite funny. I have more shoes than her (most issued by the Army) so that one doesn't work for me.... I have 6 suits in my closet with assorted shirts, ties, pocket squares, etc...so the nice clothes arguement is out too.... I am one of the lucky ones who needs no excuses, no lies, no bribes....just keep the mortgage paid and reliable transportation in the driveway.

Bash64 17 Posted March 27, 2013 I offered to match her 1:1 clothes shopping money for watches. Now she just smiles when I say I'm thinking of getting a new watch +1 on this - no need for any more lies - the ultimate trump card Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Del 4,459 Posted March 27, 2013 Cringing around seeking sanction from another as to what you can do with your money and ask what's lame? mmmm let think about that Ah, but you've forgotten about a wife's modus operandi........."what's your's is mine, and what's mine's my own".

Baldrick 1 Posted March 27, 2013 It'll be a cold day in Hell, the day my wife or indeed ANY woman over-rules or indeed outsmarts my modus operandi....! There's an old adage......

Kcore 0 Posted March 27, 2013 This thread is a great way to start, end, or just get through a shity day. So much good humor, thanks guys! But I do have a bit of a dilemma. Tracking on my rep from USPS indicates, "Inbound to Customs." I know this is a crap shoot, a 50/50 if it gets to me or is blocked. Of course I'm bummin out, but the reality is if I don't get the rep, i have to deal with a few hundred $ loss and my wife. A lot of you guys are livin the single life and some are espousing some big bravado, but as a responsible, married family man, it's not cool to have just thrown away that much money especially in today's uncertain economic environ. Oh well, wish me luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
