Why is DH so bloody useless????

FFS I have just come home and the kids are looking guilty and DH is looking like butter wouldn't melt in his sodding mouth. . I asked him to hang a picture today and that's all he had to do. But no. I come home and the thing is still there on the floor. Lazy sod.

Instead, he claimed, he'd done some redecorating. Why? Why paint a wall rather than stick a nail in it and hang a picture? The house stinks of paint now.

And then he tried to cook pancakes and 6 of them are on the bloody ceiling. Wtf? What the f is the point of him and his nice shiny open topped car that doesn't have a roof so we all get wet when it rains?

Does he have s big knob? This would be a mitigating factor? Smile

He sounds like a complete and utter pig. LTB.

SortAllTheThings · 20/10/2016 20:36

Bet he can't read a fucking map either. Useless prick.

Brb. I'm off to play happy mrs chicken work

ItShouldHaveBeenJessCastismas · 20/10/2016 20:37

Butter might not melt in his mouth - stick an apple in there instead. And then grill him over what the hell happened.

Xmasfairy86 · 20/10/2016 20:38

Really?!

He doesn't sound to helpful if I'm honest map. Is it hilly where you are?

KP86 · 20/10/2016 20:40

He's let his appearance go too, hasn't he.

mum2Bomg · 20/10/2016 20:40

My DH took 7 months to hang five pictures. He did it in the end though!

ItShouldHaveBeenJessCastismas · 20/10/2016 20:41

What a terrible role model for your DCs. How many do you have, OP?

ItShouldHaveBeenJessCastismas · 20/10/2016 20:42

KP. I'd put money on him being overweight and not shaving regularly.

MapOfTheWorldDoorKnob · 20/10/2016 20:43

He has, KP86 he has. sighs

DD is annoying me tonight as well.

I'd lay the blame squarely at your dd's feet. We all know who's the real problem in your household.

ItShouldHaveBeenJessCastismas · 20/10/2016 20:45

Why is DD annoying you, OP? Sounds a stressful day.

rollonthesummer · 20/10/2016 20:46

Oink oink.

MapOfTheWorldDoorKnob · 20/10/2016 20:49

Is it my imagination or is there a crack in the wall? I swear to god it wasn't there this morning.

OK what have I missed?

Shurelyshomemistake · 20/10/2016 20:50

He tried. He can't help it if all the other people around you - specially the women- are hideous overachievers. In particular that neighbour who has about 50 different jobs. The old sow.

ProseccoBitch · 20/10/2016 20:51

I asked mine to hang a mirror 18 months ago and it's still sitting on the floor. I've given up.

user1471517900 · 20/10/2016 20:51

Maybe he thinks you don't work hard enough OP? Be honest, do you have any female friends who work a lot harder than you and are showing you up a bit?

VulvaInLaw · 20/10/2016 20:52

Marking place so I get the punchline when it arrives...

luckylucky24 · 20/10/2016 20:53

looks like wallpaper crease on the pic. If you have no wallpaper then yes maybe a crack.
He has obviously been taking classes from Daddy pig.

StubbleTurnips · 20/10/2016 20:53

I've been waiting a long time for our wedding pictures to be hung. They're still not done. We've been married 10 years Hmm

arethereanyleftatall · 20/10/2016 20:54

It's the laundry involved for his and the dcs hobby that would drive me bonkers.
