Husband keeps trying to wreck my present

Christmas day was going well despite DH's ability to really piss me off without even trying 99% of the time!

Anyway after the kids had opened their presents we started on our small piles and I got some fluffy white slippers from my mum, DH finds them hilarious and whilst the kids were watching on of their new dvd's on christmas day DH shouted "fluffy slippers" really loud and almost scared them to death . Anyway that tickled him for 10 minutes but since then he's been doing it over and over again, it really isnt funny anymore, it doesn't scare the kids anymore, it's just got boring basically.

We just ignore him when he does it now but when I went to put my slippers on earlier they had coffee marks all over them, I assumed it was an accident and asked DH if he'd done it and his face was all strained as if he was dying to laugh but he was denying it, so I just said "oh whatever then..." walked away and he burst out laughing, I've since caught him trying to wipe chocolates on them .

I know it might seem funny to anyone else (or just plain mad) but its really pissing me off, if I did that to his things he'd go mad and what's my mum going to say when she see's whats happened to them?

He does this kind of thing all the time and no, he hasn't been drinking! how do I get through to him that it's just not funny?

he sounds so childish, he needs to grow up.

jampots · 27/12/2006 19:52

put soaking wet dirty slipper at the bottom of his side of the bed and then snigger yourself to sleep!

jampots · 27/12/2006 19:52

actually although I sympathise please can you post a photo of hte offending slipper

Carmenere · 27/12/2006 19:54

Take wet slipper, dip it in flour, then beaten eggs, then breadcrumbs. Fry it in a couple of tablespoons of oil and serve it with chips and tartare sauce

Tomorrow afternoon remove all the food from your house (leaving just enough for you and the dc to have dinner that evening)to a secret place (or just eat the lot if you've got that type of appetite), cook dinner for yourself and the dc, cook the slippers (- roasted in oil?) and serve him up a taste of his own medicine. If you're feeling even meaner, hide all access to money so he can't even go out and buy something.

Carmenere - we must be on same wavelength, but you type faster than me!

Carmenere · 27/12/2006 19:58

Helgand, although I am obviously more devious than you as I am suggesting disguising the slipper!

HappyDaddy · 28/12/2006 08:42

Can you not just punch him in the face?

PMSL... thanking you for cheering me up so much on my birthday!!

NbgSparklyYellowFeathers · 28/12/2006 10:37

Or shove the said wet one up his back passage so it matches the one he rubbed chocolate on.
That way you'd still have matching slippers and you'd teach your dh a lesson.

rockingroundthexmastree · 31/12/2006 08:33

so how are the slippers faring up suger?
