Did the iron hit the carpet? Clean it. Why waste money on new one?

Yeah? Perhaps they don't tell anyone. I have cleaning lady coming bimonthly to help with deep cleaning, her husband is taking care of the lawn. Most of my friends have some hired help too. Definitely middle class. Help is still pretty cheap here and no problem at all.

Bummer - you mean you have to keep up with what he likes and dislikes as well as what you like and dislike? That seems sort of like a lot of work to me.

This!!! Sadly.
People seem to have no interests beside eat, sleep, and work long hours to make tons of money then go shopping and spend them all.
Personally, I don't know anyone who has any meaningful, serious hobby...

I went and picked up some of the "shoes" and I was all jazzed that I got a good deal, like 25% off so I was happier than a pig in mud.

I get home and started looking at my old shoes and I realized that it's the exact same brand, same color, same everything. LOL

I felt a slight wave of annoyance, but I actually did sort of murmur to myself, "well, at least I know what I like and am consistent."

Funny stuff. I don't know if it's a man thing or just I happen to be similar to your husband that way.
With sneakers, tennies, etc. I do that on purpose beforehand. When I find ones I like I'll buy a few pair.

One for now, when they're worn, toss 'em and get out the next pair.

I left the old pair out for the rodent like lagomorph, but she wasn't biting, no pun intended.

It kind of reminds me of my husband, who is always messing up his computer, or the printer, or his phone, and expecting me to fix it. He will use me for a crutch, if I let him. I was his office manager for 20+ years and he keeps forgetting I don’t work for him anymore.

I have an acquaintance whose loser son still lives with them, and she cuts his meat.

I have two sorts of cookies in my house and I don't know which one I'm most in the mood for - and they are totally different. One sort is a lemon wafer type with lemon filling - mmmmm, melt in your mouth. The other is Girl Scout Thin Meth, I mean Thin Mints...and we all know about those Girl Scout cookies.

So tonight I had cookies for dinner. Not particularly satisfying on one hand, but delicious all the same. But now I'm hungry again and I'm pretty sure I had about 800 calories in cookies already so basically I just need to go straight to bed.
