DH is so transparent

DD and I have been feeling the cold so DH was instructed requested to turn on the central heating. "Put another sweater on'' was the response. God the man is so predictable, George Clooney couldn't get away with that. DD and I each give him the deathstare (intensity 6 for 10 seconds, it's enough) so he sullenly good-naturedly turns it on.

And then thinks we won't notice him turning off the radiators. I should hit him with a champagne bottle but honestly he can't spare the brain cells.

Don't you know how to turn it on!

I do this to my DH all the time.

He puts the heating on (rather than a warmer jumper) and I turn it off.

He puts in on again and I turn it off.

He puts in on again and I turn it off at the boiler.

He thinks he's 'won' and is therefore warm

Stupid fucker has never heard of the placebo effect Wink

Why couldn't you just turn it on yourself?

I had a housemate who did this, because he didn't have a job (voluntarily) and couldn't afford the bills. Well sorry, but I could! A despite wearing my whole wardrobe my FACE was still freezing ffs!
