Things That Make Me Wonder *rubs chin*
filed in Just a rant on Feb.22, 2010
I don’t know what it is in this house. Are people afraid of the garbage can?
Are people just so damned lazy to walk a couple steps and throw out their junk?
Any time Shane takes a tag off something…he leaves it on the dresser. As if he’s cherishing it. Weirdo.
And I’m thrilled that MC takes fruit in her lunch but what’s with leaving the sticker on the counter when the garbage can is a mere 8 feet away?
Then there’s this. My dog gets mail. Lot’s of mail. Once she got a dollar and was asked to complete a grocery survey. I filled it out according to what I thought she’d buy…if of course she was able to drive to a store. (but she can’t as she was born with paws and not hands) ((She’s a DOG)) Plus, they don’t allow dogs into stores.
She gets MANY pre-approved credit card applications, which is odd because she doesn’t own anything. To be pre-approved, don’t you have to have a social security number and some credit history?

Your dog? That is so funny!
I am glad my house is not the only one that is plagued with people that can’t do simple tasks without the help of Momma.

Oh man, that’s HILARIOUS! Maybe your dog has a secret life you don’t know about. I’d put a hidden camera on the collar and find out. (smile)
Happy Monday!

How funny. I must admit I do the same thing with the fruit stickers, not sure why.
I’ll admit that is pretty weird the dogs gets mail even if its those stupid preapproved credit cards, ugh.

My 2yo daughter gets a surprising amount of mail. No credit card applications yet, but I’m sure it’s just a matter of time. And I thought it was ridiculous when the vet sent mail to the cat. That at least kinda makes sense. But grocery surveys for dogs? Love it.

Same thing here! Open the junk mail and leave it in a pile….leave the receipt on the counter…..rinse the ice cream container in the sink and LEAVE it there….I got a million of those to add to yours. Buy bananas, put them in a plastic bag with a twistee, go to the checkout, put in yet another plastic bag. So, when you get the bananas home, your wife can take them out of the plastic bag, remove the twistee from the SECOND plastic bag, throw BOTH plastic bags in the recycle bin, throw the twistee away…Wal la now we have our bananas!

Too funny! That sounds a lot like my house, except for the dog getting mail, I hope ours don’t start feeling left out. Around here the biggest problem is people putting their dishes in the dishwasher, or even the sink for that matter. My husband constantly leaves his on the counter, it drives me nuts!

THat is pretty strange your dog gets mail…maybe you can count him as a child in the upcoming census. I just leave the fruit stickers on my kids

The fruit stickers are my pet peeve. They are everywhere in my house. I just love when they are stuck to my kitchen tiles.
Maybe your dog has a secret life and identity you don’t know about,lol.

That is funny! My family leaves junk lying around our house all the time too. But my pets never receive mail.

I swear you are my husband, complaining.
I am the person who seems to have an aversion to throwing stuff away, though I DO plan and throwing something away, he just gets to it before me.
I love that your dog gets credit card applications. This is classic, and strange.
LOL

Your dog gets mail at the correct address and yet I get mail for another woman with my exact name except for middle initial and clearly the wrong address. I need your post office.

I hate the fruit stickers too. My garbage is directly next to the fridge so it is just a matter of extending the arm and bending a little.

My dead uncle still gets mail and even 10 years after his death my father was still getting new credit cards (the actual cards they send out when your renewal is up.) for him. Hello, he’s been dead for years, he won’t be purchasing anything!

That’s funny. I am constantly asking the same thing around here….especially when the same freaking wrapper will have been walked over one hundred times by every other person in the family. Why am I the only one who will stoop to pick it up?

And my husband doesn’t always seem to know where the garbage is either…so frustrating!
February 23rd, 2010 on 4:29 pm
Funny!
I thought I was the only one, who was the only one who picked up!
February 23rd, 2010 on 4:54 pm
You must have a very fancy dog to get mail! My son doesn’t throw anything away…drives me NUTS!
February 23rd, 2010 on 6:45 pm
My husband does the same thing with the tags!!! What is that about?!!?
AND my dear, sweet, little one is beginning to throw trash on the floor! If I have something in my hand (on my way to throw it away), he takes my hand, opens it, takes the trash and throws it on the floor?!!? Are they born with this instinct?
February 23rd, 2010 on 6:51 pm
This happens in my house too. Why? I am not sure.. I love how the dog gets that kind of mail really. That is too funny..

That is so true about the fruit stickers — my kid puts ‘em on ME!!!! On my pants, or shirt or whatever part of me is closer to her as I walk past. Geez!! half the time I walk around with a fruit sticker on my ass and not even know it.
Husband? Love him more than life itself but he CANNOT for the life of him keep my countertop clear!! Put the fork in the sink!!!!!!!!!! Arrrg.
