...pop in to family life for 10 mins a day to critique your care of the DC and the state of the house based on assumptions gleaned from 1 minute of observation?

@EL8888 Seagull Husband is brilliant. Best description I've heard to date.
Cunt would also work though.

Enabled. I dislike advocating physical violence but a big heavy frying pan seems appropriate here. Or get the DC to do it if sufficient physical strength and under the age of criminal responsibility.

Arsehole and soon to be EXH.

Don't put up with his crap. You deserve better.

Seagull husband is a fantastic name! Or maybe seagull dad just to shorten it slightly?

That seagull description is sheer brilliance!

I bet he nicks your chips as well.

Sperm donor husband.

Happy to provide a contribution when gaining pleasure but otherwise takes zero responsibility.

Love seagull husband! I have one here at the moment, not enjoying the experience!

Seagull husband. Sounds like he doesn’t do much but fly around squawking, shits on everything and then flies off

This is amazing. Can we get "seagull husband" to go viral?
My ex-partner was a seagull partner.
He also used to root around in the bins - allegedly taking them out but not really achieving anything. Seagulls like to root around in bins too.
