To find it funny when DH is furious?

to find it funny when DH is furious?

I don’t know what it is, but the crosser he gets the more it makes me laugh.
Take yesterday: DH and I went to the garden centre and DD2 (not a child - home from uni) stayed at home and was given strict instructions to supervise the unruly vandal that is our 18 month old (not) working cocker spaniel, in particular to make sure he didn’t destroy the garden.

When we got home I went up the garden (long and narrow) to pick some lettuce and carrots. I immediately saw a big hole, really big, in the middle of the lawn. I quietly returned to the kitchen and busied myself scraping the carrots. I watched through the window as DH went up the garden and swerved right as he saw the hole. I called DD and said “DD unruly dog has dug a huge hole and Dad has just seen it, he’s going to be furious”. She came and peered out of the window before rushing upstairs to her bedroom.

DH stormed in cursing the dog and DD, demanded she come downstairs to inspect the damage.
She came down, swearing she had been watching the dog, I carried on scraping carrots, bent double over the sink, my shoulders shaking, so he went back up the garden to have a rant at the neighbour who is a sympathetic sort. DD and I collapsed laughing, we were crying with laughter, I don’t know why I find it so funny when he’s angry but I do, and so does DD.

There was a thread only a few days ago where the H was doing exactly that. All the posts said the same, that he had no respect for the OP she was just somebody in the same house.

Nobody said that it was fine, it was just his way of coping with tension.

Didn’t see that thread I don’t think. But this is a very easy fix. It’s a hole in the garden. It’s funny that he’s getting worked up about. Making the daughter go out and look is funny, I think she knows what a hole looks like. 😂

Perhaps that would be OK if this was the only time. But OP says:

Take yesterday:

Sounds like it's whenever he gets cross. And the 'take yesterday' suggests this was just the latest example. Which makes it a different scenario.

Or maybe she finds it funny when he loses his shit about stupid things. People think it’s wrong that OP has laughed at him losing his shit about a hole in the lawn which is weird. It’s funny.

If she laughed at him getting upset about something serious, obviously that would be unpleasant but as she’s given a hole in the lawn as an example, I’m taking it as it’s other things comparable to that. Unless she says otherwise. I guess some people prefer to see things negatively.

And for those looking into it deeply saying OP is terrible, maybe they should be just as concerned that OPs husband has such a bad temper to be cursing his dog and daughter and be storming around something so minor.

storming around OVER something so minor.

Oh well, doubt op is coming back, but at least the aptly named @JePréfèreLesChiens is there fighting her corner about how it's just japes being such a dick to the dh and how he needs to lighten up....

😂 I think anyone that has a dog and worries about holes in their garden needs to lighten up, yes. Having a dad that didn’t even used to let us kick a ball on his lawn and moaned when our own cat had a wee on it, I find it silly to be so previous about a hole when you have a dog.

precious

But OP set him up. She saw the hole, and instead of fixing it, she ‘quietly scraped carrots’ , watching for her husband to find it. That’s what I find awful. Laugh about the dog digging the hole, but then just be a bloody grown up and fix it?

Bet you anything massive drip feel will be along shortly

I mean, I’m hardly lacking in the sense of humour department but I just find it weird that anyone would find this funny. Not because I find it so terrible that a dog dug a hole (surely that would be bloody annoying though, no?) it’s just - literally - not funny.

Shoulders shaking🙄.

You can do whatever you like. I will say that I've met a couple of people like you. Who think that fake mirth is a terribly quirky tinkly laugh what am I like ? It's just so ooo funny I can't help it aren't I so terribly extra.

Yeah they get zero respect from anyone around them. They basically get treated like toddlers when they have to be engaged , when you can avoid them you do.

It's just a bit awful and tacky of you. It's not fun when you are frustrated and cross and to have a partner who is far more interested in it all being a jape to undermine you. That's quite soul destroying.

If you can't be appropriately emotionally responsive (that doesn't mean agree with him...key phrase....emotionally appropriate) the you have some issues.

Your post made me laugh. Haha.

I find it very funny when my DH gets angry too. He doesn't do angry very well. He's too nice to actually be angry.

Similar to when I have games night, and my opponent is often ready to pop sometimes, due to the rules of the game, it's like being lawers, reading the fine print, and because I want the judges perspectives, he has his source, but the way we debate and argue, I just start to giggle at times.

You have the strangest sense of humour, both you and your daughter. It’s just not funny, not in the slightest.

@Summerslam innit?!

this was actually one of the early signs that divorce was on the cards for my ex DH and I.

When i found his anger funny

Does he have a moustache? Thats how i imagined him
Im like you, i find anger irrationally funny, i was watching happy gilmore the other day and i was cackling
