DP’s turn to make tea tonight. He wants kievs but has realised we have nothing to go with them. I offer to go out to the shop as we need a few other bits anyway.
He says, and this is important: ’Okay, get either chips or potatoes.’
I come home with potatoes.
He sees the potatoes. All hell ensues.
‘WHY DID YOU GET POTATOES? YOU KNOW I CAN’T PEEL THEM!’ (He has a bad arm at the mo).
Ok, says I, I will peel the potatoes.
Nope, not good enough. Apparently I am selfish and ‘never think of him.’
SO WHY ON GOD’S GREEN EARTH DID HE TELL ME ‘EITHER CHIPS OR POTATOES’ ?!
AIBU to have made the assumption that ‘either chips or potatoes’ means that I should get either chips or potatoes, and not just chips?
