The Stuff of ‘love’.
Wife: “Could you please bring your plate back to the sink’? Husband: ‘I didn’t know I left the plate on the table’. Wife: ‘You did’. Husband: ‘Ok, next time I am around near the table I will take it to the sink’.
W: ‘Why didn’t you do it when you got up from the table?’ H: ‘I don’t know, I wasn’t thinking of the plate. ’W: You don’t have to ‘think’ of a plate, you just do it automatically.’’ It makes the place look so untidy.’ H: ‘Well, I think the stack with all those Cosmopolitan magazines on the floor look untidy also. ’W: ‘No, it doesn’t, one expects a room to have magazines’.
H: ‘Are we competing between a plate and magazines now?’ W: ‘Surely, you know that a plate with remnants of food is untidy?’H: ‘And, a stack of remnants of magazines is not?’ W: ‘No, it isn’t’. Go, and put the plate in the kitchen, now.’ Sigh! Husband gets up and puts the plate in the kitchen.
10, 30 PM in bed
W: ‘Gee, its cold tonight, is the window open?’ H: I don’t think so, but the bathroom door is open. Do you want me to check?’W: ‘Yes, check it, my feet are cold too’. H: ‘Oh, that’s no good; your feet too take a lot of time to get warmed up.’ ‘Did you wear your slippers?’ W: ‘No, I forgot.’ H: ‘Well, why don’t you put socks on during the night then?’ W: ‘Yes, I will’. H: ‘Where are they? I’ll get them for you.’ W: They are on the chair, next to the lounge.’ H: Ok, I’ll get them.’ W: Thanks.’
H: No, they are not on the chair. Now my feet are cold as well.’ W: ‘Perhaps you should put on socks as well.’ H:’ you think so, I have never slept with socks, they might make me feel sweaty.’W:’ I don’t know about your sweaty feet, but have you found my socks yet? H: ‘Yes, yes I am coming back to bed; here are your socks’. W: ‘Oh, not the grey ones, they are polyester, I want the woolen ones.’ H: ‘Do you think we will get this night sorted out?’
W: It depends very much on you finding the right socks for me!’ H: ‘I think it depends on finding your own bloody socks.’ H: Good night! W: Get f**k#d.

MJ: What ? I can’t hear you.
FM: Are you deaf or something ?
MJ: Maybe, but there’s a lot of background noise, washing machine, drier in the laundry, water running, radio, kettle boiling and the aircraft noise ?
FM: Why don’t you get your ears checked ?
So I made an appointment with an audiometry specialist who said: Your hearing’s fine, you just have too much background noise.
FM: Why didn’t you bring the dried washing upstairs when you came ?
MJ: How was I supposed to know that I had to ?
FM: Because I asked you to.
MJ: I didn’t hear you. I was downstairs and out the back.
That was when FM started to phone me on my mobile from upstairs. Anything to avoid dragging the clean washing up the stairs.

Sounds familiar:
Me: Can’t you hear that bloody oven bell??
Mrs M: I’m just in the bathroom.
Me: You shouldn’t use the timer on the oven if you are deaf, why don’t you answer me?
Mrs M: I didn’t hear the bell because I’m in the bathroom, can you switch it off?
Me: I’ll turn the bloody thing off, will I?
Mrs M returns.
Me: You’re bloody deaf, can’t you hear the bell??
Mrs M: I’m bloody deaf, why can’t you hear what I’m saying?
Me: I’ll give you bloody deaf, why don’t you stop mumbling!
