Litiquette VII

[BongoGal]

I’m not a fan of the Italian hero. I think I’ve simply eaten too many of them. It’s like mother’s milk where I live.

I haven't had a great one in years, but oh, when they are made right, it all clicks for me.

 

[SassySheDevil]

A silly question for late in the day. Long Monday!

My brother randomly texted this to me over the weekend, it caught me off guard, and it made me LOL:

You are redesigning Mt. Rushmore. The four Presidents will be replaced with four sandwiches. What's on your Sandwich Mt. Rushmore?

Grilled Cheese with tomato
BLT with Avocado
Any combo with egg and cheese. --Fried egg, scrambled egg.. Sliced. It's all good.
Chicken salad.

I don't like my bread toasted though.

 

[Trekka]

A great Cuban sandwich is a work of art. Decent ones are very good.

Dare I mention the Media Noche?

 

[BongoGal]

Dare I mention the Media Noche?

I had to look that up. How could it be bad?

For reasons unknown, I have never had an actual Muffuletta. I know I'd love it.

The bread is so sweet...

(Don’t tell Sassy it’s slightly toasted)

I’m not sure I’ve ever had a good muffuletta. I’ve had one or two and they were soooo salty!

Honey-To-Do Lists.

Who’s guilty?
What’s a chore on that list that can really make you crinkle you’re nose or put you in a mood?
Ever rip up the list and say “yeah... not happening!” <—- guiltily.
Do you make these lists more than you receive them or vice versa?

 

[ChainedUp]

Lists? I laugh, don’t you ever hand me a list as I know my list not only includes your ideas, but those ideas in way more detail. And then I also have my items!

My honey-do-list needs to be performed by yours truly so they all make me crinkle my nose. However, im a list maker. I make lists about my lists!

I am curious to see the list about your lists.

 

[Trekka]

I make lists of lists.
I like crossing things off of lists.
If I do something that's not on the list, I write it in, just to cross it off again.
I like tossing out fully completed lists. The crinkling of the paper feels good.
I hand *him* lists, for sure! He asks for them! Makes his life easier. All the to-do's all in one place.

He has never handed me a list.

I wanna say he doesn't have to, because I'm usually at least a good ten steps ahead of him, and anything that ain't on my list ain't happenin!

 

[QuietCanadian]

At work, I'm a lister for sure. I even have an excel spreadsheet that is colour coded by deadline and completion percentage. So it gauges today's date, tells me what I've written down and then is highlighted red if, say, I'm only 25% done and it's due this week. Or it's green if it's complete/sent for review. There are a myriad of in between colours, but I feel like y'all are already fanning yourselves from this extreme sexiness of a list, so I'll stop.

Not so much at home. Grocery lists, sure. Things I need to do? Not so much. Unless it's a cold beer or the hockey game, that's a list I can get behind. If I were to start one now, it would be to watch that commercial again.

 

[Suz_anne]

I'm a lover of lists - it soothes my brain to write out everything I need to do. If I'm stressed out about something, I find that the process of writing out the steps of what I can do to make that situation better or to resolve it takes my anxiety down to almost nothing.

I have work lists, shopping lists, inside projects/to-do's, outdoors projects/to-do... it is borderline nutty.

That being said, I have never in my life given my husband a list of things for him to do. I think that would go over like a pregnant pole vaulter.

Color coded by percent complete! *gasps*
I’m going to use this.

Really?! Mr Suz doesn’t accept lists? I’m kinda surprised...
I mean, I’m a list monster... nightmare, even. Total bossy pants. But, list completion = blow jobs sooo... that helps? I think?

 

[Richard_C]

If I got to pick anywhere, I'm going with a cabin in the woods next to a lake.

This is my jam!!

Lately I've been thinking of trying to set my life up for retirement or when my youngest is out of HS. Live the summers on a remote lake in northern WI or MN and winter down in FL fishing the coast for tarpon and redfish! I would need plenty of Life is Good shirts and hats!!




Oh, and did I see a question about strippers? I'm in favor!

It's pretty fucking impressive. It gives my superiors the illusion that I'm good at shit too. Like it's the little things they can't believe I can do that they don't realize I don't actually know how to do the job.

We have a list of household projects up on the fridge - but it is a list we come up with together and it isn't necessarily assigned to either one of us. Even though there are clearly things he would handle and things that I would handle and some things we'd do together.

But I've never handed him a list of tasks or to-do's that I've assigned to him.

Sometimes he'll ask me to make him a list if he's running out to the stores to pick up some stuff. Or he'll ask me to text him to remind him of things like if we're meeting up with friends for dinner or if he needs to swing by his folks house for some reason - but these are at his suggestion.

I don't mean to make him sound like an ogre - he's pretty good about handling his shit and doesn't need me to remind him of much.

We did make a sex to-do list once. He didn't mind that one little bit.

I read the bolded and though to myself, "self, what would be on that list?"

And then you basically came full circle for me there at the end. You're helpful like that.

But now you're combining household projects with sex to-do's... you kinky Canadian.

Again, that last part checks out.

 

[Dribble]

The list is in my head. She once tried to give me the list she just read to me. I told her I don't need the list...you just read it to me. She laughed and said no take it. I then recited the list. Then I recited it backwards. Then in the order I was going to do it. She got pissed at me. What the fuck?

 

[Trekka]

Today I wanna talk about sister wives. Hear me out!

*scrubs religion from the convo*

In my head it’s more about pooling resources. Plus there’s some sex stuff. Like sharing the hubs with another lady.

I’m always fascinated by the types of men who want that kind of arrangement—can handle that type of arrangement. They seem... energetic. Gentlemen, could you?

I’ve heard lots of my GFs joke that they would be into a sister wife. Ladies, could you?

Or, if the concept were flipped on its head, like in my dreams, what about brother husbands? Gentlemen, could you be one? Ladies, could you have some??

What chores would you split up? Delegate? What would the living arrangements be? What would be the best and worst parts of this whole deal?

 

[Suz_anne]

I don't think I want a sister wife as much as I'd like a housekeeper.

 

[QuietCanadian]

I don't think I want a sister wife as much as I'd like a housekeeper.

I feel like this will take far less emotional support.

I'd like to think I'm adult enough to think I could handle these scenarios, but there's gonna be a lot of wrestling with vulnerability to be a brother husband or the husband with sister wives. And y'all gotta wrestle with that and then with each other. And the long road to self actualization is, well, long. And I think you gotta be there (even if Maslow thinks relationships come first, #nerdalert)... and then y'all got to stay there. Fack. I'm exhausted already. That doesn't sound like brother husband material.

So the sex stuff sounds fun and the whole thing, in theory could work, but man alive ya gotta want it and be adult about it. That housekeeper is sounding pretty alright. And in 2020, you can probably find a semi-reputable service that adds the sex stuff.

Generally I'm a hypocrite who doesn't share well with others. But I've known only a few women that I've been close with who I could truly do this with. One a couple years ago that we even discussed doing this. I think a huge part of why I considered this was because she was actually into me, more than my husband. I've never been with a woman who made me feel so beautiful. So I was never jealous with her. That was probably the most secure I can recall ever being actually.

So similarly to what you said in Pmanns thread Trekka. It takes certain dynamics to pull something like that off. a lot of trust and communication.

I couldn't do it with just anyone.

That being said. We had someone live with us for a year that was basically a live in... uh. Extra. A guy. I fucking loved it. (I'm greedy though lol)

My husband enjoyed the situation. But eventually grew to really dislike the guy (totally un-related to the sex stuff)

Somehow I missed the Mt Rushmore of Sandwiches question. Since I'm hungry, this seems most relevant to my needs.

Obviously, PBJ needs to be there. Fluffy white bread is a must.

Next we have 2 questions that must be answered:
1. Is a hamburger a sandwich? If so, that's also a must

2. Do subs, hoagies, grinders, whatever you call them count. If the answer is yes, the cheesesteak has to get a spot, leaving only one spot.

I'm going to have some kind of red meat Sando up there, so if the cheesesteak doesn't work, a French dip can pinch hit.

For my 4th selection, I have to go with NC pulled pork. A good pulled pork sandwich with slaw on top is simply ridiculous.

If the burger is not a sandwich, I'm going to cheat a little and tho I have much respect for the Banh Mi, Cuban, Muffaletta, po' boy, etc, the current crack cocaine of sandwiches is the Popeye's Spicy Chicken Sandwich. You can't eat more than one a month or you die from a heart attack but that sandwich is a mouth orgasm.

Sorry for the interruption. Back to sister husband's etc.
