I feel vindicated with messing with the Darling Bride. She's known for many things... being a technology person is not one of them. It was the middle of the night and her turn to drive on a long road trip while I was asleep in the passenger seat. Our two young children were asleep in the back. I was suddenly awakened as we stopped on the side of the road. Facing UP a mountain. We were out of gas. And it was COLD.
I asked her how long the fuel light had been on and hadn't she seen it?! Her response (no joke):
"Well, it's been on for a long time but I thought when it got really low, it would blink or start dinging or something..."
Mind you, this was before cell phones or GPS. So I got to get out and push a loaded minivan. Up a mountain. While she steered and the kids cried. It was only when one of the few vehicles on the road at that hour offered to call our road service at the next exit and get help on the way. Two hours later, we're given enough gas to get to the top of the mountain, where there was an exit with gas stations.

Well, it could've been worse and I'm glad there were no other issues!
Speaking of wives and tech, mine forces me to carry an iPhone (I'm the only android person in our family), despite all the various ways I have explained that Android can communicate with Apple crap. I just decided not to go to battle over that ignorance.

Just wondering how many wives have access to this thread and what their opinion might be. 🤐 might be time to run and hide.

"And after that, your Honor, I woke up in the hospital..."
A woman packed a suitcase for her husband, threw all his clothes in a trash bag and told him to get out. "I hope you die a slow, miserable death!" she screamed as he walked out the door.
He turned around and looked at her. "So does that mean you want me to stay?"

Someone asked me what my job was. I told them that I'm my wife's sexual advisor. When asked what that means, I replied that she tells me if she wants my f-ing advice, she'll ask for it...
