he just used my fabric scissors to cut..

[hermykne]

cardboard, i am livid, called him a dickhead.
he took it out of my sewing drawer , he knows thats my sewing drawer.
the fecking regular one is stuck to the knife strip on the wall beside him...
i'm raging, cardborad

will it hurt them?

ruined, the sharp sharp baldes will be less sharp and i am still raging
if i was to cut pattern paper with them it mightnt cut as well, as that paper is like tissue.
or silk say. arghh

but trinty
you could have said
will it hurt him

hmm I get what you mean now, sorry, what did he say?

I think I would have called him a dickhead aswell

very restrained

it was much sharper, and walked humble away oh told me to take a chill pill
i said i'll have 25 quid for a new one, left handed scissors too, dearer.

'take a chill pill'

I think its your turn hermykne to use his shaver for your lady garden

hermykne let me defend your dear husband. I presume this is who took your scissors?

I had no idea fabric scissors would be blunted by being used on cardboard , could easily have done the same thing, and would be hurt if ANYONE called me a dickhead. If my dh were to call me that I would be VERY hurt, and shocked.

IMHO you calling him that was far worse than his original crime . Was he not really hacked off at you for calling him that?

You don't sew,do you Jasper?

no jasper no.
do you sew? and if not then you cant possibly understand how important a fabric scissors are

sugarfree how can you tell?

But did he mean it? Honestly If I called dh a dickhead ( I am not saying I have not thought it) he would walk out and never return!

I would possibly have hacked his fingers off with the scissors to demonstrate the damage he had done.

jasper what then do you call your dh if you are cross? or having a heated debate?
or under your breath
and if you saying only his name well you shloud be known as sugarfree!!!

Men just don't 'get' fabric sissors, no matter how often you tell them. The only way to preserve your sissors is to make them virtually impossible to get hold of or use. You need a padlock that's big enough to lock around the handles where they touch each other.

In the meantime make sure you raid his tool kit and use his screwdrivers for something that will give them a slight bend in the shaft.

I suppose we all have different arguing styles.

Verbal insults are a big no no in our house!

I still want to know whether your dh knew he would damage your scissors. If he didn't surely it is not fair to call him a dickhead?

Do others call each other names like this when angry?
I must be living a sheltered life

Does he ever call you a dickhead?

jasper he does know my scissors are sacrosanct, he did it before years ago. everything in that drawer is out of bounds for everyone bar me.

he'd call me something like you're cow or a stubborn bitch if very cross.

In that case he def should buy you a new pair.
And make dinner every night for a month

Whatever about the name calling, I get enraged by the attitude, it's "I'm the master of this house and I'm so much more important than you that it's ok for me to destroy something that I know you value rather than spend an extra 30 seconds looking for the thing I should be using. An then to prove I'm the master of the house I will belittle your anger and treat it like a toddler's tantrum".

I think that's worth throwing a name or two, although I'm usually a little more physical (hence the screwdriver suggestion).
