Sure I could growl and bark at everybody. But it's a lot easier to just get a dog.

Although... I have a dog, and though he barks a lot he never growls at anybody. And I know some people who choose to do their own growling and barking.
Trueeeee

I "could" figure out how to be disciplined and regular with laundry but...


Presuming ofc that a future wife didn't have the same problem but still doing laundry together and having something else to do in the same room seems like it we could help each other get through it regularly :)

or perhaps a mutual agreement to dry clean or have a maid #winkface

Hey Everyone,

It's a simple question, no?

I recently witnessed a conversation in which a very talented young man, who is no slouch in the kitchen, state that he had stayed up until the wee hours of the morning in order to try to master an advanced level of Christmas Cookie Creations, but to no avail.

Feeling somewhat overwhelmed (or defeated,) he finally declared that he had come to the conclusion that instead of trying to master this level of confectionery skill, "it would be easier just to find a wife."

Lol!

(Unfortunately, that would immediately eliminate some of us ladies right out of the running, seeing as I set off all the smoke detectors in the house yesterday while just trying to seer a pan of burgers.)

So what do you all think? And to be fair, let's make this question "gender-equal."

How would YOU complete this sentence:

"Sure, I could learn _____________________________________________ (insert your idea here, such ask, "how to mow the lawn, cook, clean, do my own laundry, how to do kung fu", etc.) BUT, it would be A LOT easier just to ________________________________________ ("get a husband," "get a wife", "buy all new clothes," "hire a ninja," etc.)

Your answers can be serious or silly, but hopefully, let's have some fun! :)
It would be easier for me to stub my toe on the leg of my couch and not let out one giant expletive than for me to get a date, never mind marry.

mum baked some cookies but...I already put an order in for a bucket at school, they were selling them for $20 and the money goes to charity. The Cookie time factory support dyslexic children.

I'll give out the cookies at the end of year party. I cannot eat a whole bucket.

One year a child gave me a toblerone for Christmas, I remember chopping it up to bake cookies. But otherwise, I generally dont bake, its messy and time consuming.

I have been to the sugar factory but not toured inside, however I have a fair idea of how sugar is grown, processed, refined and packaged. Let me tell you its a LOT OF WORK!

The way you phrased this reminds me of an old joke.

Three elderly rich ladies were trying to impress each other. The current topic was "I spend so much money that the local jeweler gives me a lot of attention." One said, "When my diamond rings get dirty I take them down to Sotherby's and Mr. Sotherby himself comes out to clean them for me."

The second said, "Well when my diamond rings get dirty I call Mr. Sotherby up and he comes to my house to clean them for me."

The third said, "Girls, girls, that sounds like far too much effort! When mine get dirty I throw them away and place another order at Sotherby's. "
i liked that one reminds me of this one...
Four catholic women were talking one day and they were bragging on their sons.
The first one said, "my son is a priest and when he walks among the people , they all call him father."
The 2nd one then said, " well my son is a bishop , when he walks among the people, they call him your grace."
The 3rd one then said, "oh thats nothing my son is a cardinal, when he walks among the people , they call him your immanence."
The last one finally came back with, "oh yeah,well my son is 6'3" with dark hair,bright blue eyes and a body like Adonis. When he walks among all the women all the woman say om my god."

Finding a wife is easy.
If some folks can find two or three, surely you can find one.
Use this method in the video.

well the christmas cookies came and I was actually disappointed...they were so tiny that they could hardly be called cookies, more like large crumbs!

Not buying them again, what a waste of $20

Finding a woman willing to be a wife is easy. Finding a woman who is wife material in this day and time is a rarity.
