Weird things I've seen my spouse do

My husband is making supper. He spontaneously flung a noodle at the fridge - it stuck. Then he ate it.

I cannot tell you the last time the outside of the fridge has been cleaned. I mentioned this. He looked thoughtful, then blurted out, “Ten second rule!”

Ever catch your spouse / SO doing something really odd?

He says I need not mention the time I caught him diapering a stuffed monkey. But I obviously disagree…

Mrs. Blue Sky when she takes medicine:

  1. Put pill in mouth
  2. Drink small amount of water
  3. Snap head back
  4. Swallow pill and water

I asked her if she swallowed the pill when she snapped her head back. She said no. I asked her why she did it then. She had no answer.

He was testing to see if the noodle was done. When pasta is cooked, it sticks to walls, refrigerators, etc

Diapering a monkey. There’s a punkband name in that somewhere.

I take pills the same way. No matter how small they are, I just have a lot of problems swallowing pills. So I snap my head back, and swallow the pill and water when the pill sinks to the back of my throat.

Comes home, turns on tv, turns on lights in kitchen, living room, and bedroom, turns on computer, turns on stereo on computer, strips 'til he’s just in t-shirt and skivvies, falls fast asleep.

One time, he sleepily added deadbolting the door to this little routine. The deadbolt doesn’t have a key on the outside. And he sleeps like the dead and couldn’t hear the phone anyway over the tv and stereo. So I had to break into the window and shout at him until he woke up and let me in.

er…suck a banana porno style with my whole family over. :eek:

I stand outside the car and open the car door for her. She gets in, but the door gets stuck in the dirt by the curb next to the car, and I can’t close the car door with one side of the car weighted down like that.

So, I say, “Can you please get up for a second?”

She lifts her butt out of the seat but STAYS IN THE CAR!

:smack:

That part wasn’t so weird. The bizarre part is finding out he flings pasta at our filthy fridge and then eats it. And if it sticking to the fridge indicated it was done, why eat it as well?

"Coz it was done, natch, and he doesn’t like to waste food.

Bonus points given if Grandma was present!

They actually go down easier if you nod your head while you swallow. My mom, bless her heart, had to take 36 pills every day and she had the same trouble until her cardiologist suggested trying to look at her shoes as she swallowed.

It always made me giggle when Miguel would roll his prayer candle over my belly when I was pregnant.

He usually does the laundry, but once I walked into the laundry room as he was pulling clothes out of the washer to put in the dryer. He’d take each individual piece and spread it out smoothly before putting it into the dryer. He said it kept them from wrinkling. I’ve always just grabbed the load and dumped it into the dryer by the armload. Never thought of doing it his way…can’t see how it’d make much of a difference. It’s awfully cute though. :wink:

If he’s going to wear a shirt that requires tucking in, Harborwolf will put on his pants, zip, button and belt them, then put the shirt on. THEN, he’ll unbuckle his belt, unbutton and unzip his pants to tuck the shirt in, then refasten it all. :confused:

I was eating breakfast Sunday morning around last Halloween, when Jim came out for breakfast dressed in his Superman costume. I asked him something about wearing the costume, and he said, “This old thing?” It was super-adorable.

Me, well, I don’t do any weird things at all, so you don’t have to ask my husband anything about me. Not a thing.

My husband does the following weird things:

  • he shampoos and conditions his body hair

  • he uses the original TV remote to turn the TV on then puts it down to change satellite channels with the satellite receiver remote. I programmed the remote to work the TV when it came out of the box, but he refuses to learn the concept of the device buttons lined up at the top of the remote

  • he insists that the bags in cereal boxes be rolled up and stuffed down inside the boxes to keep the cereal fresh, yet can’t seem to fathom the importance of wrapping something completely in foil or zipping the freezer baggie all the way when something is to be kept frozen

I observed my wife look at her watch several times in succession; all in a matter of a couple of seconds.
I immediately asked her what time it was and she had to check her watch again.

She literally had forgotten what time it was between the series of checking it once-per-second-for-several-seconds and me immediately asking what time it was thereafter.

Actually, both are suggested methods for people who have trouble swallowing pills. Check out this cite.

I find it easiest to down pills by putting the pill in my mouth and then just sculling a glass of water, pretending the pill isn’t there. The pill gets swished down in the first or second gulp.

My girlfriend takes a sip of water, then drops the pill in and swallows. Drives me nuts. And she thinks my method (pill, swig, swallow) is gross! :stuck_out_tongue:
