G cooks. He cooks well!
She's trying to stir the pot on the thread I started. You would think she would avoid me when she can clearly see who started the thread since she constantly CLAIMS she doens't want to talk to us. Go figure.

Yeah, I got one of those, too.

It's like having your own little twisted groupie!

How about worrying more about what goes on in your house and less about what goes on in other people's homes.

I really don't view cooking as some traumatic burden. I love to cook. And, there are lots of other things that need to get done around the house on a daily basis so if those things are getting done by DH, then i can enjoy cooking dinner. I dunno.

Meh, just consider the source.

DH is in charge of bacon and bread and pizza. Other than that, I'm the better cook. But he does other things, so it's not like it matters. Besides, I like to cook.

Tinydancer · Guru

I guess if you don't have a husband you still have to cook. My DH does the heavy stuff. I do the cooking (except grilling) because I like my food to be good and I'm a much better cook than my husband will ever be.

Lindley · Guru

I cook because I'm better then my husband. He does yard work Tha I hate so it's the better trade off for me.

And get to comment that other women's husbands must be less than if the wives still do the cooking.

ROTFLMAO!

Even the most benign question can ruffle your feathers and get you all butt-hurt.

I merely asked if any of the husbands cooked, and you have a hissy fit.

Nicely done!!

Some people just don't understand the joy I get from cooking for my husband. Hell I even make him dessert every night. I'm not sure he gets the same joy cutting the lawn for me though so it's not FAIR....Wah wah.

I cook on the weekends. He cooks during the week. He likes to cook and I go home and get waited on!

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

I never was one to think of anything as unfair really.

If it needed done and you were capable, do it.

There are no his and her jobs in my family.

Maybe that's the thing.

You're just as likely to see a female mowing or working on a car or shoeing a horse as you are to see a male sewing or cooking or cleaning.

Really? Why don't you quote the post where I'm having a hissy fit? I suspect I'll be waiting a long time.

I'll bet it's like ALL my posts which support Muslims. Still waiting for you to come up with ONE. Any ETA on that?

She means you had a hissy fit because working women are cooking for their husbands.

weltschmerz · Guru

You're confusing a simple, benign question with a hissy fit. That's a shame. Maybe English isn't your mother tongue?Perhaps you should look up the meaning of hissy fit.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

Tell me Weltzie, do you ever get tired of dragging that baggage around?

Lugging issues from one thread to another.

Carrying all that insecurity must be exhausting.

Tinydancer · Guru

Or you should. Again why do you care if women cook for their husbands?

It's so pathetic it loops back around to cute.

I don't see how asking if any husbands cook is a hissy fit. It was a legitimate question.

It wasn't the question - it was the way the question was thrown out there. As if our husbands are somehow lacking b/c they don't cook when our wives work.

Admittedly, if it was anyone else, I'd probably have taken the question as concern rather than a slam. But, well, her reputation precedes her.

It was indeed a legitimate question.

I rarely cook; it doesn't bother DH. I don't ASSUME he knows how to fix anything mechanical because he has a penis.

Reputations, whether it's as a whiny baby or a trouble maker those tend to follow you around.

Lexxy · My dog name is Sasha, too!

Weltz bangs heads with some folks here but that doesn't mean every post is meant to be contentious.

My ex never cooked & expected a full on meal every night. Some nights I resented the hell out of it. Others I didn't. Sometimes I had to keep in mind he shot the meat & cleaned it & sealed it for freezing.

flan327 · Itty bitty's Grammy

Contentious is in the eye of the beholder.

This board is too homogeneous...

jlbear71 · Guru

The question/comment about husbands cooking was mostly benign. The working women part could have been left off. So maybe Weltz did put the spoon in the pot with that last phrase. But the rest of the commentary about it was the stirring of the pot. You just could not leave it alone even though you knew what was meant. It show that you will stoop to any level to make your point. It makes it seem like a personal attack.

It was just as nasty as the others. Lately almost everything here turns nasty. It is tiresome.

So, we know ohFour does not usually cook, that NJN is a SAH, some people work full time, some work part time. Some have families, some are just poster/SO and some are single. O4 was holding her own when she responded. And IDKWTD calling her a troll is not a nasty comment? Lily is clearly stirring the pot just as much and yet, no reprimand. That is a double standard especially if it is coming from you the moderator, not you the poster. It seem that the three of you were continuing in making this as contention as possible especially by bringing in comments about other posts.

Maybe her reputation does precede her, so what. Ignore her. Yet the three of you tend to stir the pot a little more instead of letting things settle. Especially with lily baiting Weltz.

At least, that is how it appears. And this is not the only thread that this has happened on.

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

What I find tiresome is someone entering a thread for the sole intention of derailing it or throwing barbs at someone. That is TROLLING. Especially when it is a habit.

She asked a question, I responded, and she said that she wasn't talking to me. What was wrong with my response?

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

This is like the Twilight Zone. Weltz asked a rude question in a rude manner, and Lily asked what business it was of hers. So you think Lily is the problem b/c you don't like her when Weltz is the one that started it with her tone of question and her comments to ohfour. And if you seriously try to PRETEND that comment to ohfour wasn't meant nasty, I'm flat out calling bullsh!t.

You judgmental comments on it are hypocritical to say the least.

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

Let's revisit the definition of internet troll since obviously many did not read it -

a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[2] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion,[3] often for their own amusement.

Lexxy · My dog name is Sasha, too!

It wasn't a nasty question. People read into it. Oh4's answer was perfectly acceptable & true. She has said many times that G does the cooking. Weltz's response to Oh4 was uncalled for.

Lily's response to Weltz's question was uncalled for.
