Put a cork in it. [View all]
That's what my spouse said to me today.
That's her way of telling me to shut the fuck up.
Can you imagine being spoken to in that manner?
Put a cork in it.
So of course, once I was insulted like that, in such a rude manner, I started beating the dead horse even more.
I get frustrated easily...like when I can't get a package open. Or when the kid nextdoor is bonking his sister over the head with a whiffle ball bat FOR 2 FUCKING HOURS right outside my window. BONK BONK BONK BONK.
When I get frustrated, apparently and involuntarily, I tend to say "Jesus Christ, everything's a fucking problem." I don't even know I'm saying it anymore, it just comes out.
So, I couldn't get a package opened today, while simultaneously hearing BONK BONK BONK BONK BONK, So I said under my breath "Jesus Christ, everything's a fucking problem".
So she started mocking me...bad move on her part. "Do you know you say that about 500 times a day"?
"No, I didn't know that".
That's when she told me to put a cork in it.
So, in response to her ruthless and totally uncalled for comment, I responded thusly by quietly saying "Jesus Christ, everything's a fucking problem" to whatever she said to me.
All day. Several hundred times.
When I do this, she pretends she's mad, and she turns her head, but I can still see her shaking from laughter...she just doesn't want me to see her laughing.
Put a cork in it.
PUT A CORK IN IT.
I know this post is rambling on. I had to eat a gummy to try to calm myself down and heal my emotions after being insulted so viciously.
Put a cork in it.
So now she's trying to negate her rude insult by telling me I smell good.
It's too late.
I can't forgive.
Because everything is a problem.
