Is this what typical people eat? Oof

Sorry, this is wholesome, but also very unhealthy. So thumbsup but also thumbsdown. :shrug:

[-] snooggums@piefed.world 1 points 4 months ago

Solid choices.

I also like getting those pickled spicy sausages on road trips, helps with the travel constipation but also means no kisses till I can brush my teeth.

I suddenly understand the obesity epidemic. I don’t even know what half those places are.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

American, here, and yeah I'm pretty sure this wife is fat lol. Every single thing on that list is junk food.

[-] MelonYellow@lemmy.ca 5 points 4 months ago

I don’t have this but I actively keep a list of gift ideas. Specific things, small or big, that my SO has expressed an interest for but hasn’t actually purchased for themselves. So I get -“ohh you remembered!” No I just secretly keep a list lol

[-] Pumasuedeblue@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 months ago

Writing things down so you remember them is still remembering them. It's not even cheating!

[-] Dagnet@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

"I'm gonna cheat next exam. I will write all the theory on paper many times and when I get to the exam, I will remember everything! The professor will never see it coming"

I've started doing this the past year, and this year's birthday was great! Much less stress on my end of trying to figure out what to get, or do, and much more surprise and love on their side of feeling like I was listening. In my defense, I'm always listening, but if I don't write it down I'm 100% guaranteed to forget after a week.

[-] MelonYellow@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 months ago

100% I would forget too, especially since we have different interests. It’s been a game changer!

[-] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

You cared enough to write it down! That's exactly as good as remembering! And that's so important to the gift!

[-] three@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago

Love is letting your spouse eat like garbage.

[-] sylphrin@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago

There isn't really any indication of how often they buy her these things. It could just be once every couple of months, or when she's had an especially bad day.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Yeah. I mean your first clue is that Taco Bell is number one on their list.....

[-] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

That’s the only one that actually contains fiber

[-] salacious_coaster@infosec.pub 1 points 4 months ago

Yeah, kinda. It's not really tenable to be your spouse's dietician or de facto parent. Gotta just keep loving them for who they are or move on.

[-] GlassHalfHopeful@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 months ago

I keep a note for each member of my family where I add little things they say they're interested in or want. It's super helpful when it comes time to gift-giving.

Pay attention. Be intentional. There's love in that. 💜

[-] Eq0@literature.cafe 3 points 4 months ago

My main problem with this is that I am not a constant person! So every time I’m likely to take something new.

And still, my partner reads my mind correctly most of the time. Sometimes, they’ll tell me “check the second page of the menu, you’ll like it” and they are always right. Magical partner…

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Orrrrrrrr......they just have one of those Men In Black eye flasher memory wiper things. They ask you "Hey, what do you like from the menu?" "OOOOH! The chicken strips on the second page of the menu looks good!" "Cool. Hey, look at this cool toy pen I got!" "What?" FLASH! "Hey, have you checked the second page of the menu? I bet those chicken strips look pretty good to you, don't they?" "OMG BABE! YOU KNOW ME SO WELL!!!"

And then 30 years later you have dementia. Yeah, this just got dark REAL QUICK!!! But you didn't think decades of manipulating your brains ability to remember things came without consequence, do you? I mean, The MIB just flashy brain people once, and then move on with their lives. You've been flashy brained like hundreds of thousands of times. Anytime he says the wrong thing, "Hey, check out this cool pen..."

And that, fellas, is how you avoid arguments with your wife!

[-] OpenStars@piefed.social 1 points 4 months ago

Have you lost your damn mind? (Gets flashy thingied)

Have you lost your damn mind? (Gets flashy thingied again)

Have you lost your damn mind? (Gets flashy thingied again, after adjusting the dial)

Have you lost your damn mind? (Gets flashy thingied again, after adjusting the dial some more)

(Hey this goes on for awhile, you may not want to wait for the end...)

[-] snooggums@piefed.world 1 points 4 months ago

There are 12 things on the second page, surely one of them will work!

But seriously, having a rough idea does work most of the time but I gave up with my wife because while she does have favorites she gets sick of them and also various foods don't sit well with her so it is a crapshoot even when she picks. I just can't keep up with that.

[-] psycotica0@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 months ago

It's cut off in the screenshot... but what the fuck is the profile pic he has of her? It looks like a photo of them with his hands on her ass and she's wearing... a sheer sequined outfit? Or something? Are my eyes just seeing it wrong?

[-] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

Yea you see it right. It’s a small picture that only shows up on your own device, why not have some fun with it? I dunno if you know this, but almost everyone who is married actually has *looks around* .^sex^ with their wife.

[-] itsgroundhogdayagain@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 months ago

Mayo on a cheese steak certainly is a choice.

[-] alyth@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I don't understand people who are so picky about American fast food, as if it wasn't all the same hyperprocessed garbage...
