My wife married into my Warhammer collection. We have a Warhammer room. I’m pretty sure she doesn’t even like Warhammer but has her own painted figurines.

i mean you’re an adult, you can buy your own jar and enjoy whatever you like in parallel, why are people like that?
his wife does all the grocery shopping and he refuses to do domestic chores, so her revenge is never buying crunchy peanut butter
yup then it’s fully deserved and he’s not an adult, he’s a manchild
yep
… It’s a JOKE for fuck’s sake.
maybe what i wrote too… ? idk man it’s the internet we’re here to shitpost, it’s a meme community
Jokes generally have to be true, on some relatable level, in order to be funny.
“We couldn’t possibly buy two jars of peanut butter.”
He doesn’t do the shopping. He could easily go to the shops himself.
Someone I listen to loves peanut butter but his partner is allergic, so he doesn’t have peanut butter anymore. I know the stakes are higher, but it’s more valid to match the solution. This post feels almost like intentionally suffering to make yourself a Martyr when the solution is very simple.
Peanut allergies are often sensitive enough to be triggered by trace amounts of peanuts in the environment, so completely eliminating it to keep a partner safe makes sense. The OP is clearly depicting a toxic variety of hetero relationships where guys refuse to make an effort at compromise and just say “my wife always gets her way.”
Though I do wonder how many people out there worry about a deadly peanut allergy they grew out of but haven’t realized they can now enjoy one of the best foods in existence.
My dad likes crunchy peanut butter, and my mom likes smooth. I grew up in a two peanut butter jar household. Despite decades of that, they are still married today.
Some say it’s impossible
I solved the problem by liking both.
Does he post that every year? In OPs screenshot its 17 years.
I do the shopping, i buy her smooth and me crunchy. How is that difficult? Love does not require suffering.
I hate people like this because they’re just miserable on purpose.
My partner doesn’t like Marmite and I do. Solution, I buy Marmite and she doesn’t eat it.
Just buy the peanut butter you like, as well.
2 jars of peanut butter? In this economy?
If both versions cost the same, it literally makes no difference
How much does it cost to flatten peanuts?
It lasts twice as long though
4 times as long, if both jars are crunchy
It is just peanut butter, not like he gave up on his hobbies. Unless ofcourse peanut butter is the one thing he is living for. To me it sounds like he can’t be bothered to deal with two jars of peanut all the time so he just said “eh fuck it”
It’s just boomer humour, haha wife bad BS.
A healthy relatinship is also one where both partners understand, respects and upholds the other’s right to have personal preferences and enjoy them.
The most basic show of respect here would be to have two separate jars of peanut butter, so both can enjoy their favorite.
Most people have pleasure when seeing their loved ones having pleasure themselves. It shows affection and care for the other and is a basic show of empathy.
It’s a good post for the laughs but it is a depressing admission for a relationship that long.
What are the consequences of the dude buying a separate peanut butter jar for him? Divorce? Accusations of lying and being unfaithful by thought?
If you’re going to get a divorce over peanut butter, you might be better off alone. But that’s just my political opinion.
There is a possibility that his preference for peanut butter isn’t that strong, and it’s easier to just stock one kind. It’s also possible she eats significantly more peanut butter than him, so his jar would sit unfinished for much longer, possibly separating out.
And if it’s something like that, it’d just be a funny way to state their situation.
One time, while on dispatch for a client, I was stuck on the phone with their ISP. Behind me were all of the company interns, arguing about peanut butter.
It’s always stuck with me for two reasons. 1: One guy was arguing that crunchy peanut butter was like regular peanut butter, but with added wasps. 2: I regret every day that I did not ask the Comcast guy to weigh in over the phone.
crunchy peanut butter was like regular peanut butter, but with added wasps.
I have so many questions about what that guy thought peanut butter is, and what it’s made of.
He was probably confusing peanut butter with figs.
I think he really just didn’t like the texture. I can’t see the reasoning still, but I’ll admit at the time, his argument swayed me.
…You know what? That makes as much sense as anything else I can think of.
Yeah, the wasps thing had me thinking he might’ve had an allergy, but probably wouldn’t be eating smooth peanut butter either then…
My son likes creamy, husband likes crunchy, so I stock both?
Husband did give up sour cream, but If he wanted it so bad, hes get it himself or ask me. I dont like blue cheese, yet we always have it in the house.
This is dumb.
Yeah, feels kinda like boomer energy. Gave up something unecessary to prove his love in a way that was never asked for, probably resents her for it or pulls that out as a talisman any time she brings up something she does care about because marriage isn’t about partnership; it’s a constant power struggle.
Chunky peanutbutter has gotten worse so I stopped getting it too.
Ensmoothification is real
ya for condiments everyone literally can just have their own jar. You are not required to use everything someone else used.
That settles it. The straights are absolutely not OK. I need no other evidence.
As a gay guy, I don’t think that’s a straight exclusive thing.
Don’t marry, don’t romance, learn a thing or two from those buddists and stop desiring things just because everyone else has them, take what is given.
Having a roomate, marriage, renting, it all binds you to a person and makes you vulnerable.
I like peanut butter too much for all that
Wife bad. Haha.
Peak comedy
Are the straights ok?
I don’t think they have been for some time…
No, I think Iran mined it, or something. But this about peanut butter.
Can you not just buy… two jars of peanut butter?
They are still working on emptying the 80 gallon drum of smooth peanut butter they got at their wedding.
…what? Maybe try reading the post again?
This is very stupid.
My spouse was diagnosed later in life with a severe gluten intolerance. She went from enjoying beer and soft pretzels to being told “never again if you don’t want to shit yourself in public”
We have a simple rule. Bog standard gluten stuff is fine for me to have, sandwich bread, cereal, etc.
They told me that it was just very upsetting if I was enjoying some delicious gluten treat that they could no longer have.
I love my spouse, so I don’t eat delicious gluten treats in front of them because it would make them upset. Instead I figured out how to make lots of gluten free treats we can both enjoy together. Sometimes I miss the ease of getting a Popeyes chicken sandwich (I still can as long as I don’t eat it right in front of them) but I’ve learned to make gluten free fried chicken we can both enjoy.
Maybe other people would think this is silly, but the person I love is worth it to me.
Smooth peanut butter if you like crunchy is just a minor disappointment. Crunchy if you like smooth is like eating gravel paste.
I’ve been married 17 years. I like wearing swimming trunks, and my wife likes wearing bikinis. I haven’t worn trunks in 17 years.
I’ve been married for 17 years. I don’t want to wash my hands after peeing, my wife wants me to wash my hands after peeing. I’ve washed my hands for 17 years.
