Well good to hear it's not just my wife who has what seems like 0 sense of smell. Nothing worse than walking into the kitchen after she just wiped down the counter with a stinky sponge and trying to explain that it smells horrible.

Pull out the monopoly.

That's when tables start getting flipped, kids start crying, pets retreat to their safe spaces.

haha, we have the two item system, sponge for dishes, cloth for counters... My wife likes to leave them both on the bottom of the sink wet... i like to rinse sponge, place on back ledge of sink, rinse cloth hang over middle divider.

She's finally trained in the art of dishwasher loading though, so that's nice.

That said, i have lots of habits that annoy her too.. so you just gotta remember that when you're mad about something haha

Monopoly’s been banned at the house for years now. And I got one of those fancy ones made of wood sitting idle with an unfinished game.

Yup. Well on the plus side, he likely won't have to put with her for much longer.

A+ Thread

Thread of the year content in here.

We have got dishwasher loading ok. Fine glasses stay on counter top, dont go in sink. We use a sponge which goes into an OXO stainless holder, which sits on a towel to catch any moisture.
Filing of papers etc though.....now thats a different story. WW3 type shit can happen there. I don't push that button anymore.

Same in my house. Everyone has asked if we can get Monopoly and play. I have told them in no uncertain terms that if we buy a copy, they will all be in tears, and @baygirl and I will get divorced. I take that game way too seriously that I just refuse to play it anymore. I am just way too competitive when I play that game and become absolutely ruthless. I am always mad at myself after too. It is JUST Monopoly too. Any other game, I am pretty laid back, although once I did flip a table playing trouble, but it was more for effect and to get laughs, which it did, and the kids still recite that story while trying to catch their breath laughing.

Otherwise, things at our house have been pretty awesome. No arguments, no one trying to run from anyone. It's been a slice!

I have it on the xbox, and destroy the computer players regularly to get my fix. The feeling is not as satisfying as destroying my family.

Dishwasher loading technique.

Yes! My wife just piles dishes in the dishwasher where there is absolutely no way it could be cleaned. Doesn’t care.

[ExtraSlow]

Does your spouse get more angry when you beat them, or when you play on the same team and lose? I have a strict rule for partner games at the cabin, I will not be on my wifes team, too many hurt feelings.

Rags and sponges are both equally as gross... scrub brush ftw

I am two games deep this quarantine, i lost the digital version but took the W on the NHL board version so im pretty happy with that. I think i am good on it for a while now, just going to continuously remind my family that i am the champ for the foreseeable future.

[JfuckinC]

You guys gotta get into Sequence. Blocking and removing chips is a sure fire way to get things heated up haha..

[you&me]

First of all, scrub brush FTW...

My wife loves to play the "how high can I pile the garbage / recycling / green bin"... She thinks I think it's cute. I don't.

[bigbadboss101]

Kids not acting nicely today.

The fuck! You animals are using a sponge for dishes? You use a dishcloth and you wash it once a week like a civilized human.
