I recently took care of a few things in the house of a couple I know (who shall go unnamed) while they were out.
On their fridge, I found two lists. One had the man’s name at the top, the other had the woman’s. Both lists contained times and short descriptions of activities performed. From later speaking with the couple, I discerned that there had been some disagreement about “who does the most around the house,” and these lists were an attempt to settle the matter once and for all.
I found the husband’s list to be of particular interest:
Husband's Contributions to Household Order
I think “HUGE FIGHT WITH WIFE” might be my favorite, both because it is the single longest item on the list and, even in spite of it, the wife was kind enough to add (you can tell the handwriting is her’s b/c it is different) two other contributions that her husband had overlooked.
You’d think people would be able to sort this stuff out before marriage… or at least in the first few years. :/
Yeah…one would hope…
I can’t read that last line… does it say “murder juice + deino juicer”?
I suspect it says “made juice and cleaned juicer.” I like your take better, though
.
Ha! Reminded me of the old Confucius saying, “Man who goes to sleep with itchy butt wake up with smelly hand.”
Wise man, that Confucius.
I wanna see the other list… was it about six times longer?
Closer to a moderate 2.3x longer. But it did contain items such as: “picked grapes off of stem.”
Quality, not quantity, my people; please.
