To expect husband to use his brain occasionally?

Together for 16 years, married for almost seven but almost certain that he has engaged his brain about three times during that period. He'll do absolutely anything for anyone, me included, but the second conversation turns to him doing something without direction, he goes blank. Please tell me it's not just me that this infuriates?

Hi all,
We can see this is an ongoing conversation and have no desire to interrupt, but in answer to Liney's earlier question regarding the use of the word "feminazi" on the site, we would say that we generally try to avoid outright bans - context is important, often, and allowing particular terms to be challenged by other users is frequently more effective, in our experience, in terms of shifting the discourse.
We do think, though, that most instances of this word would fall foul of one or other of our Talk Guidelines - so do report if you see it and we'll take a look.
That is, of course, what happened here. If anything the offending terms were left up for longer than usual because this conversation was taking place rather early in the morning. We've left some of them, though, so as to allow the debate.
Cheers, everyone.
