Sunday Secret


~*~*~*~*~

When he started demanding I show him the receipt for grocery shopping, I bought a package of condoms on my next shopping trip. When he looked at the receipt, he complained about how much I spent on fresh fruits and vegetables, but never asked to see another receipt.

I love your brand of passive-aggression, and that is totally a compliment! *lol* I knew a girl who's husband bought her a size 4 dress for her birthday and told her it was something to aspire to. She bought a box of those super size magnum made-for-Hagrid condoms and told him it was something for him to aspire to.

You know how to hit below the belt. It's a wonderful skill to have, I think.

Evil Twin's Wife said...

ROFL! The Evil Twin doesn't even know how much (little) he makes. Checks are electronically deposited and I take care of all the bills. I think it's his way of not having to worry about it! LOL.

I want to say something but what? What is being learned and taught by this 'brand of passive aggression'?

Deech said...

OK, so that was creative!...Very creative!

M said...

AH, that is just gold!

Biscuit said...

Well, doggybloggy, I can't speak for Dana, but there wouldn't have been a Lesson Plan involved. Simply a creative, and satisfactory, way to give him the finger.

Karen said...

Too funny! That level micro-managing would make me insane. I'd do something like you did.

Dana said...

Biscuit, it's probably not the most productive thing, but it does get the point across when done well.

we're doomed, it's a usefull skill to have, but one that can become ineffective if used too much.

gout-des-hommes, condoms for dinner ... I hadn't considered that!

Dana said...

Evil Twin's Wife, that's how things started out here, but when there began being problems in the marriage, he began getting more and more controling.

doggybloggy, learned? Taught? Ha! You give me too much credit. I was just being a passive aggressive bitch.

BTW, your second comment has been deleted. Feel free to spew your hatred toward me on my blog, but your nastiness - directed towards my readers - won't be tolerated any longer.

Talk about passive aggressive ...

Joker_SATX, and it seemed to be effective too!

Dana said...

M, I try to save my passive aggressiveness for when I have a really good idea!

Biscuit, sometimes flipping someone off - dropping the f-bomb - is no where near as effective as a well thought out passive aggressive move! Had I flipped him off? He'd still be looking at the receipts complaining that I spent $4.98 on a bag of grapes.

Karen, it has made me insane. I guess it's his way of insuring "his" money is squandered away.

That's just damn funny! Next time? Lesbian porn. ;)

Dana said...

Real Live Lesbian, unfortunately, my grocery store doesn't carry lesbian porn!

doggybloggy, anyone reading this will agree that Biscuit responded quite politely to your initial comment. You subsequent responses have been intentionally hurtful towards her.

As I said, if you want to spew your vile attitude towards me on my blog? Go right ahead. You want me to repost the portion of your comment that said,

"sad that this blog is the ONLY thing you have control over."

I take no issue with it, but I am DONE with the high-school antics that you seem to enjoy so much.

I cannot stop you from reading my blog, nor fix the personality flaw you have that keeps bringing you back to a place you find so disturbing, but I *can* and *will* delete comments meant to be hurtful towards my readers ... including you!

You go, girl.

I love the hypocrisy displayed by your commenter who was here to chastise you for not teaching appropriate lessons, but whose own behavior is less than mature or good or positive.

I loved the passive-aggressive condom purchase, too.

Jormengrund said...

Passive Aggressive?

Nah.

Just common sense.

If he wants to make an issue, then you have every right to make an issue in return..

Kind of like the trolls that keep coming back here..

Wait.. I just thought of something!

Did you know that whenever you turn on an introspective light, some folks keep coming back..

Kind of like roaches in a cheap motel..

I think Snugs and Doggy are much more apt comparisons to roaches than trolls, really.

rage said...

That
was
awesome!

Either he didn't notice or it shut him up.

Clever Dana, clever (muah)

Dana, Dana Dana - who is pushing buttons now - is this how subordinates try and beat dominants? Just asking?
