Thread: My Wife Said NO! YOUR A JUNK ADDICT

Tweet

My wife was taking me to the Dentist this morning; I spotted a Tractor with a sign for sale $2,000. I wanted to stop and see it; she said no you don't need that Antique piece of JUNK. My wife says you want anything you see!! I said I'm driving home, she said not in my car. I said if you don’t stop on the way home I'll never speak to you again. I was at the Dentist office longer then I expected. I had taken pain pills before going and they gave me more shots then they thought they would have to. One tooth had to have a huge filling and the other tooth had to have a crown. I was in the Dentist chair for 3 hours they were taken an impression on a tooth. I was supposed to keep my mouth close for three minutes and I felt my mouth opening as I was falling asleep, they had to do another one. My back was really hurting and I kept putting my hand behind it the Dental assistant asked if I wanted a pillow I said yes, the Dr said he saw me squirming. On the way home I was woozy, my wife was driving faster then usual maybe because she had to sit at the Dentist office for over 3 hrs and with a discount it was over $900 dollars. I missed the tractor but she wouldn't go back. My wife said you have a bush hog you just paid $675 for now you want a tractor to pull it. I said I could put a rope around her and she could pull it. No tractor for me.

Richard

i would be careful. she might knock out all that new dental work you just had done.

Barb,

Thanks for the warning, that would be worse then not getting the Tractor!

Richard

ain't it so, Bro, ain't it so - - - - if it is any consulation, YOU ARE NOT ALONE

Richard and Barb, you guys have such an awesome way with words and phrases that just make me laugh so much. What a neat story and an excellent way to start my day,thanks, and now can I ask..... what would you need a tractor for????? Oh that's right, because I haven't got one of those!

:lol::lol:

MelloYello,
I glad I'm not alone. Don't these women know good Junk when they see it?

Whiplash23T,
Yeah your right I don't have one and my wife is going to make sure I don't need one.

Barb,
That is funny I told my wife I would not speak to her again then I did the my lips sealed.
I couldn't last three minutes in the Dentist chair.

Richard, here's some instructional video on "The Look"

MelloYello,
That was really good; I was trying to cool down from my walk that I wasn't able to take this morning. I forgot to take my blood pressure and heart rate but by the time the clip was over my heart rate came down.

I heard he may come back with a show, I hope he does.

Thanks for sending the clip. That is ironic because I was talking about Tim the tool man Friday when we eating at the Olive Garden after my wife's Dr. appointment.

Honestly there was a nice looking woman bending down with the famous tool time butt crack, I told my wife I did not look even though it was right there.

Richard

I have a simple way to work with my addiction.
I'm off at work 8 months a year and the wife stays home raising kids.

My job pays all bills, savings, projects, etc etc

I pay myself a monthly salary, it gets put in the first of the month. This is strictly for hobbies, NOT for any living expenses.
She runs her own homemade soap company, and so technically has the ability to make as much spending cash as she has the time to make for her own hobbies, interests.

I can't ever complain I want something, I either have the money saved or I don't.

Drew

Mellow - Great Video!!!
Deep - I have a allowance that each month goes into an account that is for hobbies, etc too. Lately my wife started to complain about what I bought with the money(in this case, a new semi auto shot gun for quail and duck season.) We had a royal todo, with many "LOOKS" when I finaly pointed out that she spends more on lunches and dinners with friend(when I work the swing shift) as well as trips, airfare, clothes, shoes, purses, knitting supplies(have you seen what they charge for yarn!!!!!!!!!!!!) and if she wanted an allowance that she could have one, but no more massages out of joint checking, etc. She declined the offer and appologized about the gun!
Richard - I know the LOOK well
but it's like Tim's brother said in the video, everytime one of us falls under the look, a small part of him dies!
I'd love a classic tractor, just no place to put it!!!!

Richard your going to have to do like we do separate money, checking and all. I always get the "you have to much JUNK" stuff too. I told her once let's have my so called junk appraised and her's and see who's junk is better who need's all those shoe's and never wear but a couple pairs.
you need the tractor to pull that bush hog cause it's hard to push it and spin that shaft by hand or maybe buy a goat.

yep now the new cleavage is the butt crack

Hey Richard do you have a 1930's Le Blond 12 foot metal lathe?
I'll sell that for 2,000 HE! HE! HE! you have to pay for shipping though.
I bet she'll let you have your tractor, if she seen the shipping cost on this thing HE! HE! HE! Thats one of my tricks, show them something else that cost twice as much.
I learned that from my ex wife. HE! HE! HE! Kurt

yeah, seems like getting her on an account comparable to yours would solve alot of problems.

the only stipulation regarding my hobbies is they must be somewhat contained in my 1500sq ft shop.
she once complained that while I was out at sea my 4 hobbies were making dead spots in the grass....
I informed her that the keys were in the house and she should try moving them every week. no complaints since. (I mean, really, what kinda person complains about having a 63.5 galaxie in the yard?)
