    Back when we were painting our house, I disagreed with my wife about one of the colors.

    It’s a Victorian house. We were doing a Forest Green, and a mint green, and I wanted to include burgundy. However she chose plum.

    As soon as we saw it on the house, she realized the burgundy would have been better.

    We just lived with it.

    We’re about 10 years late for repainting, and the paint has faded so much the greens look blue. I don’t know when we’ll be able to do it again. The painter we used was very, very good, but if I correct for inflation, hiring him again today would cost over $40,000.

          As a 39 year old with a wife and a kinky and immensely fulfilling sex life, agreed.

          I do hope these folks are actually old and not these new Republican kids that inevitably end up as incels. Otherwise they’re in for a lifetime…

              They do if their sex life is significantly kinkier and generally a part of their lives than those who fuck sometimes and masturbate usually… In this exact context.

              Brother I was agreeing with you.

              Weird defensiveness. My wife hates that.
