DH is making himself ill because he always has to be right

Whereisthechicken · 25/12/2019 12:27

After a bit of a hunt this morning, I've just located a whole raw chicken in our car after DH obviously forgot to bring it in with the rest of the food shopping on the morning of the 23rd December (I had gone out to a different shop for a few more little bits in my car so he was left to do the unpacking from his car).

I am clearly annoyed and insisting the slightly green chicken is bad now but he is adamant it's fine as leaving the chicken in a cold car for two days is as good as leaving it in the fridge apparently. No idea on the temp here but it's been raining/a bit sunny here in Wiltshire during these last two days.

I'm certain he's just saying this because he's a stubborn person who, if I said the grass was green he'd argue that it was pink. Doesn't do it to anyone else, just me. He always has to be right. I've said the chicken is bad and so he's insisting it's perfectly fine to eat and is now cooking it. I'm pissed off knowing there's a strong possibility he's going to ruin boxing day being sat on the toilet the whole time which is just great when we have two young children. Is he bu for eating it or aibu (it is safe and I should leave him to it)?

Another blatant placemark!

Have you thought about telling him that a car hitting him at 50 miles an hour will kill him. See.if he tries to prove you wrong there too.

What an idiot. Good to see natural selection up close...

Definitely following this 😮

WWlOOlWW · 25/12/2019 19:42

What a silly man. Almost hope he does get sick!

zasknbg · 25/12/2019 19:43

It has been mild in Wiltshire. However, I think it would have smelt revolting when he unwrapped it if it was off. That said, no way would I have eaten it.

Bloody men! Mine ate an entire pack of rennies , because they tasted like refreshers! Sweets. Had a allergic reaction . Spent all day in bed.

MyMajesty · 25/12/2019 19:45

Wow! I didn't know rennies could do that.

Shock Blimey. Definitely use separate bathrooms if he gets ill.

I don't want the man to actually be really ill but a dodgy stomach for an hour or two might knock him off his high horse! Xmas Blush

Can we start betting on who explodes first vs this thread and the lady with the scary looking turkey from Aldi?
