Great, now I’m in trouble and I have to worry about her falling off the ladder. (TikTok screencap)

When a man says he will do something, he will. There is no reason to remind him every year.

That sounds like a Red Green quote!

[–] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Sounds like Al Bundy to me.

[–] AtariDump@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Ah geez Peg!

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 39 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Then I'm following behind her like a child trying to grab the stuff to do the thing.

Because failure at this point means you're in the doghouse until forgiven.

Imagine an adult wanting something done and just going to do it themselves 🙄

[–] CouldBeBetter@piefed.social 39 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I know right? Like how dare a wife ask her life partner for help with something in their shared home?

[–] West_of_West@piefed.social 21 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Imagine an adult having to do everything because their spouse is incapable of contributing.

[–] crank0271@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Which one am I in this example?

[–] unknown@piefed.social 5 points 4 months ago

Oh the irony.

[–] _stranger_@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It's never about the thing that needs to get done.

[–] unknown@piefed.social 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It was, till it was put off and ignored so many times that it became about that instead.

Anyone willing and capable of doing it themselves wasn't asking for help because they needed the help, they wanted the help, so the ask is less about the help and far more about the helping, if that makes sense.

Totally. Have you ever been in a partnership though?

[–] baggins@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 months ago

Oh are you saying this meme is actually about someone being shitty to their partner? That isn't very funny.

[–] db2@lemmy.world 15 points 4 months ago

I support her adulting 100%, unless she was expecting someone else to do it for her.

[–] jerkface@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 months ago

Look at that place, that's not the wife, that's the maid.

[–] AmazingAwesomator@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago (2 children)

i mean... i guess it will get done the right way now. :D

i dont know what the fuck im doing and will lrobably screw it up; i figure my wife has a better chance at success for most things.

[–] erin@piefed.blahaj.zone 28 points 4 months ago

Sounds like weaponized incompetence to be honest.

I'm a millennial woman with male gen X and boomer direct reports at work. This is their strategy for literally everything. "But youuuuu do it so much beeeeeeeter....!!!!! (Whaaa, whaaa, work is haaaaaard...)"

My strategy is scheduling mandatory training meetings early Saturday morning for anything that can't be done because "Don't know how.. 🥺".

[–] Septimaeus@infosec.pub 4 points 4 months ago

mandatory AM Sat training

Best not fuck with this person
