Those of who you aren't married out there, you should know that dating is a scam. Both parties are so much nicer in the dating phase. Then you get married and things get petty real fast.

There are many ways to do things, but when you're married, there is only one way, and it's your wife's way. Just get used to it. This fact only becomes more true during a national lockdown.

They do say that opposites attract. It seems like the kind of opposites that attract are the kind that differ on issues of cleanliness and packing habits. It makes married life pretty difficult.

There is a right way and a wrong way to squeeze toothpaste out of a tube. The right way leaves little mess on the counter. The wrong way does the opposite.

If you have to get up at 5 a.m., at least have the common courtesy to get up the first time your alarm goes off. Nobody needs to hear that thing go off four times.

Well, it looks like the man cold strikes again. This guy is right. Having a bad cold is way less painful than living with a man who has a cold.

I'm sorry, husbands of the world, but there is no movie in existence that will keep your wife's attention past 10 p.m. You're just going to have to come to terms with the fact that she's going to fall asleep 20 minutes in.

If a woman doesn't fall in love with you after you make her a grilled cheese sandwich with butter spread all the way to the edges, you're chasing the wrong woman.

The absolute worst office offense is microwaving fish in a communal microwave. There is absolutely no reason to microwave fish. It tastes just as bad cold as it does hot. Just eat it cold.

Why do unfrosted Pop-Tarts even exist? Sure, they're marginally healthier, but they're still not healthy. You're still eating garbage for breakfast. You might as well go all out and get the frosting at that point.

It seems like your spouse is always telling you that you're doing something wrong. That wrong thing could be the way you brush your hair or the way you put your clothes in the closet. Or it could just be the way you live your life in general.

If you want a woman to find you sexy, go out into the world and hunt her down a delicious, cold, caffeinated beverage. Then bring it back to her. If she doesn't kiss you, she's not the one.

If this tweet isn't the definition of marriage, then I don't know what is. Everything bothers you about the other person, but you stick around anyway because you promised (and because you love them, of course).
