  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What dinner table? She should be feeding me grapes while she is fanning me with that big leaf. OH! The dinner table! Thats that thing in the other room that she should be waxing.



If ya'll only how far from that I really am, it might be more funny. When I was married, I did 100% of the outside work, and 80% of the inside work. Other than taking our daughter to daycare and picking her up, all my ex-wife did was her own laundry, and thats only because I washed one of her dry clean only sweaters one time by mistake.

You guys are unbelievable... Yes, we're single, but how can you guys live like you're describing? :eek: It sounds just like me ;) ... except I think I'm worse!

I work freelance computer stuff and mostly from home / over the internet so erm I tend to wear the same things for a couple of days! (cuts down on the washing, y'know ;) )

I can get away with shaving until I need to go out too. You can call me Grizzly Gregged at times!

Sleep patterns are all over the place.

Like going out whenever / wherever. Grocery shopping is normally at about 2 a.m.

My work desk tends to be messy.

The microwave is made full use of and I can eat whatever!


BUT


Just before you all go "Ewwwwww.... what a gross guy," I do tend to keep the inside of my car clean and have a dishwasher. I think it's just plain disgusting to have a messy car and let the plates pile up ;) How could you live like that? :p :D

:hug:

I realise that if any of this information becomes public to any future possible wife that I may have just blown that chance! For this reason, this message will self destruct in 5 seconds...

Heck yeah I'd change some habits.

No more washing dishes
No more doing laundry
No more cooking
No more cleaning the bathroom
No more rubbing my own feet
No more getting up to get my own glass of water
No more getting up when I forget to get the remote when I sit down
No more driving myself anywhere
No more ironing
No more grocery shopping
No more cutting the grass
No more raking leaves
No more feeding myself
No more bathing myself
No more ceiling fans, I want to get that big leaf fan thing going on!

Married life will be GREAT!! ^_^:p^_^

BouncedBack... if you meet this wonderful woman and during courting she expresses the desire to do all those things when married, but then for one reason or other things don't work out before that stage................... would you be so kind as to PM me her phone number ;) :thumbsup:

Thank you :)

I was actually somewhat productive this weekend....did the dishes, did the laundry, paid the bills (the ones I could pay anyhow...) and emailed a few friends....oh yeah...and worked 11 hours. I almost feel human again.

Just don't look at my house...it still looks like a bomb went off. haha Oh yeah....the fridge is still bare and it's too cold outside to clean out my car. :-(

Sounds like you've been busy :)

If it's too cold outside to clean out the car, and your house already looks like a bomb has hit it, why not bring the car inside to clean it? Problem solved! :idea:

Hope you feel fully human again soon and have a great week.

Well, I think my heart is about to be broken. Then I will REALLY feel human again. :-(
Oh... :( I'm so sorry HoosierCanuck. :( :hug:



Oh well...on the bright side, hopefully I'll become more productive on cleaning up the shrapnel from the house. lol
Yes... especially if you've just driven the car through the front door! I've heard it can make a bit of a mess! lol

God bless. :hug:

Today I baked a pizza, cut it up, and put it in the car before it cooled. In the car it froze, at lunchtime I took a plate out to the car and got a couple of pieces and heated them up. I will continue to do this until the pizza is gone.

So in the winter you use your car as an extension of your freezer? Do you warm things up in it in summer time?

Well guys, just to let you know, your habits would be the same if married or single.

I was married for 29 years and now find myself single. Everything you all described happens just the same if married.

No, no, no... <hands over ears> I can't hear you la la la la la...

Will I really be this bad? And will the other posters here really carry on their disgusting habits?! ;)

If/when the time comes, I will try to be better! I'd like to think I'll keep proper hours of sleeping etc and not using the microwave so much and washing at least twice a year ;)

But I do believe you - and you are of course speaking from experience! I can see how some things would slip as time went on... :( But not the "ewwwwy" stuff... :p

Agree to your sentiment. (highlighting mine)
I have noticed at my brother and sister in law's house if you wander inside their bedroom
it is best not to look on the farside of their bed where they do not expect people to see. ;)
Chasing my neice that is where I found the clutter, mess, and dirty clothes thrown all over the place.

Are you sure you've done all the highlighting you need to? ;) :p

How disgusting. Hmmm... the farside, eh? At the moment I think the whole of my bedroom (not the whole house ;) ) is like their farside of the bed! :( I think I'll get a big rug to sweep it all under! Out of sight, out of mind. :thumbsup: Good exercise too.... walking up a steep hill of a rug ;)
