Thread: What doesn't your wife get?

Trust me, my subconcious will let me know when the words "$2000" are uttered, no matter how much I've tuned her out.

My wife doesnt understand why I like to buy stuff. She doesnt spend money on much of anything, hardly buys new clothes, she never wants jewelry, and refuses to spend money on anything that isnt related to her cooking or baking, or occassionally something to help her clean. I on the other hand love gun stuff, have a jacket and boot fettish, and razors and soaps and creams oh my! If she spent some money once in a while at least I could say "oh ya...well you bought last month, so dont talk to me about spending money!" Instead I just slink away and play with my new toy in the other room lol

I know what you mean Great White. My wife is Mexican and one day we had this conversation:

W -My roses die and I can't know why.

Me - Where did you plant them?

W- in my jar.

Me - what kind of jar...glass, terra cotta, ceramic?

W - no, my jar!

Me - Yes what kind of jar?

W - My jar, my jar. I planted them in my jar!!

Me - Oh, your yard?

W - JES! JES!! MY JAR!

Gentlemen:

A few readings from the book "101 Things Husbands do to annoy their Wives" by Ray Comfort. These are audio links each being only approx. 2 minutes.

1. Littlen know facts about the male ear

2.The real meaning of Shhh...

My wife is very understanding about my interests including razors.

I have to admit that I do feel a bit guilty because like someone else in the thread said earlier, she rarely buys anything for herself, and I literally have to force her to buy new clothes!

That said, over the last few weeks she has gone quiet because these large packages from the United States keep being delivered containing all sorts of shaving stuff ..

My wife has been awfully good about indulging me on only two things, classic cars and razors. And I haven't exactly won her over on the straight razor thing yet, she's probably still pissed I went ahead and did it. The classic car I bought and am restoring (with some modern upgrades) has taken 10 months and $14,000 so far - almost done. And not a thing from her about it, but I think that is secretly because she enjoys it as well. But then again, she on a good night out she wears about $9,000 worth of crap on her hands, wrist, ears and neck, so she can't wench about it too much...

My wife doesn't pay much attention to my shaving things. I think she thinks its a fad and I will lose interest in it. I don't have a lot of interests but golf and straight razors are here to stay. I also have any packages sent to work and just slip it into my collection.

I'm new to straight razors and only had 2 shaves so far so I'm learning. My wife just dont get that I enjoy learning, using, reading about razors, creams, soaps etc. She says I'm obsessed. I told her there are so many bad things I could be into.
