    Default Trouble in Paradise

    Earlier tonight I had to come to terms that I am suffering from AD. Let me explain. My secretary (wife) was doing bills on the computer and asked me, "What's this charge from SRD for?" ( I knew it was only going to be a matter of time before I heard about it) I kinda gave her a smile and said nothing. At this point she bellowed "This better not be any RAZOR STUFF!!.
    I said, "But dear, it's a japanese straight razor". I immediately tried to change the subject, which surprisingly worked. She's still not happy about it, but I'll get over it.

    Thanks to SRD for a very nice and sharp Iwasaki Kamisori. As a matter of fact I shaved with it for the first time right before the "incident". Awesome shave.

    Heraclius,

    I have found that there is no point trying to hide anything from SWMBO.

    In a single, almost X-Ray like look at me, my wife can determine if I have bought any shaving related goods ! It is uncanny

    Have fun !

    Best regards

    Congrats. They are awesome indeed. The razor that is

    Ask Lynn if he'd be willing to set up a porn section in SRD. That way, when the bill comes and she asks about the SRD charges, you can reply "Oh, I don't know. Might be razors, might be porn." Then you can pull out the razor and she won't be so upset.

    Utopian: Lol

    A cople of days ago I babbled away infront of my wife (mistake no 1) about how happy I am for my Aristocrat (nice and shinny) and that rodhium is way more expensive than 24 carat gold (second mistake). She asked, with reptile speed, "how much was it". Nothing about how nice it looks or how happy I was. Women

    What I want to know is why are guys afraid of their wives?Did you marry an equal or are you a naughty little boy being dressed down by your mom?

    it's because she can see your happy, if she knows she hasn't done something to make you happy it must razor related. The key is to stay depressed all tge time they your razor collecting can really blossom.

    Walk into the house backwards with your new shaving stuff she will think you are taking it out.
