**** my wife says...

Sign in to disble this ad
Do you ever get P0wn3d by your wife? I do on a pretty regular basis, but this weekend was pretty brutal.

We went to a burlesque show / cabaret / etc. show (boobs for the win), but in between the acts, there were some musical acts. An absolutely terrible band, consisting of two guys, a guy playing the acoustic guitar, and a singer. To begin with, this barely constitutes as a "band", but I digress.

They start playing, and it was horrible. It was prog folk. The baby of Rush and Simon and Garfunkel. The singer sang both of the horrific songs, but never opened his teeth. He was also clad in a leather vest and boots and a balding but grown out Art Garfunkel (like to his shoulders) haircut. The guitar player was wearing a blue polo and kakhi shorts.

The whole crowd had the whiskey tango foxtrot face. I lead over to my wife and said "god, these guys are terrible... who booked them?"

she leaned back over to me and said "at least they have a gig..."

I'd like to hear some more wife/ husband / significant other pownage to make myself feel better.

Like absolute crap. Not enough to go to the ER, but enough that I'm looking for a doctor down here in Pueblo.

We don't have that sort of relationship but I've picked up all sorts of things from my wife,...such as "Will ya don't" and "whoopsie gropesie".

oh man my wife? She's the epitome of a smart-arse. I'm going to need some time to compile all the incidents. I'll post some stuff when I have some more time,



EDIT - Joe, I'm glad that you're alright, but just to be on the safe side, dont wait too long to see a doc, ok?

I'm still trying to grasp how you can do that to a car by hitting a hole.

Washboard roads+small lightweight truck=fishtailing like crazy. The hole was only a major catalyst in throwing the truck out of control.

Please be proactive in the maintenance of your health--seriously.

A memorial thread for a musician who wasn't:

OSG member SPudnik passes away.

I would have had a different response from my other half.

"Oh, is that because they're the only one who aren't G cupped and dressed like sluts?!"

Or something to that extent.

Sorry to go OT here ...but what the heck does this P0wn3d mean. From the context of the post it obviously, or I should say to me apparently means "owned".... But on this forum and a few others I have seen it written this way.

Is it similar to "LOL" or "Ralftomato" or whatever that is?

My wife? I'd have to keep a notebook with me to write it all down, and I don't have a pocket big enough to hold that notebook.

Every time another bass-sized box enters the door there is all sorts of talk from her. She is rather tolerant of my addiction though. She knows that I can't rag on her for getting shoes or cupcakes or purses or whatever the hell it is that women buy.

My fiancee, being a total klutz (well, Im not all that much better myself) often ends up with skinned knees and/or random bruises, along with lots of little scratches from our cat. I always tell her 'people are going to think I beat you!' and one time she responded with 'well than stop beating me'.

My wife called me "Lane Frost" at dinner in front of her entire family once when I was giving her a hard time lol. Shut me right up and had the table in tears. I'll wager being compared to someone who, at their best, goes for 8 seconds is about as pwnd as it gets lol.

I would go on and on about how it isn't true but I have a feeling it would just make it worse lol.
