DH trundled into the kitchen this mornings and proceeded to complain about there being nothing for breakfast.

We have:
Regular porridge
Chocolate porridge
Ready Brek
Weetabix
Shreddies
Own brand Rice Krispies (he won’t touch own brand cereal)
Eat Natural wholegrain cereal
Fruit
Bread
Jam
Bacon
Eggs
Smoked salmon

But there’s sod all in the house for breakfast!

YABU: How could anyone be expected to eat any of that shit?
YANBU: Go to the shop 5 doors down and get whatever you fancy!

What a tiresome attitude, do you truly not know any men who don’t fit the stereotypes in your head?

It was obviously a tongue in cheek joke on a light hearted thread.

He does all of his own meals but I do the shopping.

Sounds like he volunteered himself to do the shopping in future then. He can huff at himself if there is still nothing he fancies. Dud he confirm what mysterious foodstuff he DID fancy?

Which I’ve already acknowledged before you posted this comment 🙂

We cross posted. 🙂

I was feeling sorry for the OP. She started a light hearted thread, made a joke, and it got turned on it's head.

You did acknowledge it.

I wasn’t being serious. A rubbish joke that nobody picked up on.

To be clear, I don’t genuinely believe that people capable to getting to the Moon are incapable of making breakfast. Of course he should be sorting out breakfast, and make hers while he’s at it!

@CaterhamReconstituted

it was clearly tongue in cheek!

it's all too humourless around here these days!

No, I never make him breakfast. He does all of his own meals but I do the shopping. Food is VERY important to him (it’s not to me), so if it’s not something he fancies, he has a huff.

@Kwasi maybe it's time to swap some jobs & he can do the shopping.

or else, do it together or online & both add what you want.
