    I mean that’s nice but let’s get down to the real issue here: “wit wiz” is fucking disgusting.

    I suddenly understand the obesity epidemic. I don’t even know what half those places are.

      American, here, and yeah I’m pretty sure this wife is fat lol. Every single thing on that list is junk food.

        I mean, you don’t usually need someone’s standard order for healthy places, only for places where you might be grabbing food to take home without them being there with you- like gas stations and fast food places

        And you can eat like shit and not be overweight. I eat absolute garbage most of the time and I’m 115lbs, and trying my best to put on more weight 😅

      But this gives the illusion of memory for the wife. Same outcome less chance of error.

      I genuinely have a sub list of things in my shopping list of things my wife likes so when I do groceries I know a range of snacks to get her when she doesn’t know what she wants.

    It’s cut off in the screenshot… but what the fuck is the profile pic he has of her? It looks like a photo of them with his hands on her ass and she’s wearing… a sheer sequined outfit? Or something? Are my eyes just seeing it wrong?

      Yea you see it right. It’s a small picture that only shows up on your own device, why not have some fun with it? I dunno if you know this, but almost everyone who is married actually has *looks around* .sex with their wife.

        Just gotta be cool with your bosses seeing it pop up like this when ringing on your desk

        Depending on who you are and your social circle and whatnot yes, could even be a hit

      Solid choices.

      I also like getting those pickled spicy sausages on road trips, helps with the travel constipation but also means no kisses till I can brush my teeth.

    I don’t have this but I actively keep a list of gift ideas. Specific things, small or big, that my SO has expressed an interest for but hasn’t actually purchased for themselves. So I get -“ohh you remembered!” No I just secretly keep a list lol

      Lists are awesome. I made one for all kinds of stuff and they come in handy all the time.

      Got a list for:

      • Games (local multiplayer, LAN, singleplayer)
      • Movies
      • Series
      • Music
      • Restaurants
      • Gift ideas
      • Addresses
      • Recipes

      And every time I encounter something interesting, I add it to the list.

      Then when I need ideas, I can just look at the list and get tons of great ideas.

      I’ve started doing this the past year, and this year’s birthday was great! Much less stress on my end of trying to figure out what to get, or do, and much more surprise and love on their side of feeling like I was listening. In my defense, I’m always listening, but if I don’t write it down I’m 100% guaranteed to forget after a week.

        100% I would forget too, especially since we have different interests. It’s been a game changer!

    I keep a note for each member of my family where I add little things they say they’re interested in or want. It’s super helpful when it comes time to gift-giving.

    Pay attention. Be intentional. There’s love in that. 💜

    My main problem with this is that I am not a constant person! So every time I’m likely to take something new.

    And still, my partner reads my mind correctly most of the time. Sometimes, they’ll tell me “check the second page of the menu, you’ll like it” and they are always right. Magical partner…

      Orrrrrrrr…they just have one of those Men In Black eye flasher memory wiper things. They ask you “Hey, what do you like from the menu?” “OOOOH! The chicken strips on the second page of the menu looks good!” “Cool. Hey, look at this cool toy pen I got!” “What?” FLASH! “Hey, have you checked the second page of the menu? I bet those chicken strips look pretty good to you, don’t they?” “OMG BABE! YOU KNOW ME SO WELL!!!”

      And then 30 years later you have dementia. Yeah, this just got dark REAL QUICK!!! But you didn’t think decades of manipulating your brains ability to remember things came without consequence, do you? I mean, The MIB just flashy brain people once, and then move on with their lives. You’ve been flashy brained like hundreds of thousands of times. Anytime he says the wrong thing, “Hey, check out this cool pen…”

      And that, fellas, is how you avoid arguments with your wife!

      There are 12 things on the second page, surely one of them will work!

      But seriously, having a rough idea does work most of the time but I gave up with my wife because while she does have favorites she gets sick of them and also various foods don’t sit well with her so it is a crapshoot even when she picks. I just can’t keep up with that.

      If you get a cheesesteak ‘hoagie’ which usually includes mayo, lettuce, tomato, onions, its actually pretty good with the mayo. Without the other toppings, I agree, it would probably be weird.

        Cheesesteak hoagie, with just ketchup, onions, and sardines.

        Oh, no. I’ve never had it. I just wanted you to throw up in your mouth a bit.

    I also do this with 2 of my most favourite friends.

    Schedules, activities we want to do, priorities for said activities, and many more.

    Some tism may be involved

    I don’t understand people who are so picky about American fast food, as if it wasn’t all the same hyperprocessed garbage…
