It's such a satisfying victory (that cannot be celebrated or even brought up again)

[–] wizzor@sopuli.xyz 52 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The only correct way to bring it up, is to hand make your wife a beautiful shoe storage rack.

[–] prowess2956@kbin.social 26 points 11 months ago

This guy husbands

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 19 points 11 months ago

It's just for you and a nice gaze at the horizon. Perhaps with a morning coffee

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 16 points 11 months ago

That's when you give her a knowing gaze and say mmhm... and then walk away and avoid her until she stops wanting to murder you.

oh, the moment she realized you were wearing her shoes

Image Transcription: Twitter Post


no more, no less, @42_words

my wife yelling at me about the shoes all over the floor by the back door and then her suddenly stopping mid-WORD as she realizes that all the shoes are hers might be the single greatest moment in my life thus far

[–] Nelots@lemm.ee 21 points 11 months ago

didn't notice the name until seeing this, that is indeed 42 words.

[–] peyotecosmico@programming.dev 25 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Now someone post the follow up where she twists it to make it his fault anyways

[–] macrocephalic@lemmy.world 18 points 11 months ago

If I didn't have to do X then I'd have time to put my shoes away (while sitting on the couch doomscrolling insta)

I did. If "mid-WORD" counts as one word, we're good.

[–] PoolloverNathan@programming.dev 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

"mid-WORD" is two words, but one WORD.

[–] Sigh_Bafanada@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

one word all lowercase FOURWORDSALLUPPERCASE

[–] Emerald@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Indeed. Depends on if you are going by English word or word-processor word count.

Edit: Well I guess mid is more a prefix then a word. This is a conundrum indeed.

[–] Sotuanduso@lemm.ee 4 points 11 months ago (2 children)

ChatGPT says it's 33 words, so...

[–] Emerald@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

LibreOffice Writer says it's 42 words, so...

[–] Sotuanduso@lemm.ee 5 points 11 months ago

I asked ChatGPT to split it into lines, count each line's words, and add them up, and it gave me 48, so...

[–] RickyRigatoni@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago

chatgpt literally can't count

[–] olafurp@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

My wife would have finished the phrase and I would give her the "you don't really expect me to do that" look

[–] dukk@programming.dev 0 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I would upvote, but there’s 222 and I’d like to keep it that way.

[–] TheBig2023Meltdown@lemmy.world 28 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It's now 338 if you'd like to drop your vote in. Rattles karma tin

[–] V0lD@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Ah yes, the internet, where you get downvoted for voicing that you enjoyed seeing a minor pretty happenstance

Once got the 9999 -> 10k voted on Reddit. Super satisfying and gif'd and commented it in the same post. Predictably got nuked
