My friend thinks my husband should divorce me

... For doing this to a block of cheese Grin For some reason my DH gets really wound up when people (usually DD) grate the cheese from the 'wrong' end (ie, an end that isn't already grated). Earlier, I was grating cheese for tea and I had a lightbulb moment and grated every possible end, edge, side, corner and angle on the block of cheese Grin

My friend is horrified and thinks DH should divorce me for so much wrongness Grin

Obviously lighthearted

Vandalism Angry !

DH won't mind at all, as now there is no "wrong end", and he'll be completely happy, your plan to get him to divorce you will fail, I assume there's some generous pre-nup meaning you can't divorce him. I think you'll have to fall back to plain old simple murder.

I'm thinking of LTB my OH.

He leaves the old milk carton with 5cm left in it at the bottom in the fridge and starts the new carton!

Every time!

Brilliant. That appeals to my log hiddenrebellious streak!

supersop60 · 06/10/2019 18:43

*long - not log.

That's fine if all the faces are (relatively) straight, if they are sloped...you are a heathen.

I understand that this is one of the signs of severe psychopathy.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 06/10/2019 18:50

I bet you cut the pointy end off the Brie as well. Peasant. You don’t deserve cheese (even mouldy mousetrap)

ElizaDee · 06/10/2019 18:54

Yabu over your choice of cheese.

We got some Davidstow crackler or whatever it is yesterday, it is 👌👌👌👌👌

Em3978 · 06/10/2019 18:54

Thats awesome!!!

user1474894224 · 06/10/2019 18:55

You should be thrown out the house immediately.

@LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD every Xmas someone in the house slices the cheeses the wrong way......when it's my dolcelatte or other soft cheese I get very upset. Then to make matters worse they insist on discussing it for about two days going on about how unreasonable I am and surely it doesn't matter which way you cut it. Of course it does. You have to share out the lovely gooey centres and rindey ends. Everyone knows that.

Howlovely · 06/10/2019 18:59

That's beastly.

SchadenfreudePersonified · 06/10/2019 19:00

It's not so very long ago that a woman who did that would be burned as a witch . . .

Yerroblemom1923 · 06/10/2019 19:02

You're eating Red Leicester.....which end you grate from is the least of your worries!!!

Deathraystare · 06/10/2019 19:03

Shocking. What goes on in your mind to do that to a piece of cheese?

I am probably just jealous because I have run out of grate-able cheese though there is a tube of smoked cheese begging to be eaten - tonight might be the night!

handbagsatdawn33 · 06/10/2019 19:07

What's so wrong? I can't see your teeth marks.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 06/10/2019 19:08

Unless she gnawed it...

GruciusMalfoy · 06/10/2019 19:08

That's hilarious, top class dickery Grin

NuffingChora · 06/10/2019 19:08

This makes me feel strangely ill and it’s not an issue I even knew I had...

MissMudskipper · 06/10/2019 19:10

For the love of god woman what have you done?! I dont even eat cheese but this had me twitching!! Good luck with the divorce settlement Wink

Cocolapew · 06/10/2019 19:11

I think it looks nice. I'm just a bit disappointed it wasn't done with your fingernails or teeth

SummerHouse · 06/10/2019 19:12

It's a health and safety contradiction. On the one hand I applaud you for using all sides therefore limiting the multiplication of bacteria. On the other hand I don't think you could have achieved this whilst conforming to our "don't touch the cheese" household motto. Did you touch the cheese?

Longdistance · 06/10/2019 19:14

Ffs op, what are you doing 🤦🏼‍♀️?

Cut a chunk off then grate, jeez Louise!

bobsyourauntie · 06/10/2019 19:15

haribo I do that, slice off the grated end and eat it so its nice and smooth again Grin

YABU OP and deserve to be divorced twice over for ruining cheese Grin

Rachelover60 · 06/10/2019 19:15

You're a dreadful woman. To the tower with you and off with your head!
