DH trundled into the kitchen this mornings and proceeded to complain about there being nothing for breakfast.

We have:
Regular porridge
Chocolate porridge
Ready Brek
Weetabix
Shreddies
Own brand Rice Krispies (he won’t touch own brand cereal)
Eat Natural wholegrain cereal
Fruit
Bread
Jam
Bacon
Eggs
Smoked salmon

But there’s sod all in the house for breakfast!

YABU: How could anyone be expected to eat any of that shit?
YANBU: Go to the shop 5 doors down and get whatever you fancy!

Not unreasonable. But neither is he. It’s just male fridge blindness. He can’t help it, they all have it.

Ridiculous. Of a course a man is capable of looking in the fridge and seeing what’s in there. It’s purposeful laziness and ineptness voiced aloud in the hope that a woman will feel sorry for him and then use her time and effort to sort breakfast for him whilst he sits around and contributes nothing to the task.

Are you married to a teenager? That's what my teens say when they look in the bursting fridge and cupboards.

What exactly did he want to eat?

Put him in charge of menu planning and shopping for a month.

Lol, what did he want, a pot noodle?
Silly sod. Genuinely ask him what he's getting for you both from the cafe then?
