swoon over me ladies for I am the BEST husband EVER!

[matcom]

Mrs Matcom's new washing machine is being delivered as we speak :D

:hide:

hey, its a front-end loader and everything! now she can easily wash the king-sized comforter too! :D

[kick-ass-bob]

1. Bullshit!

I just bought my wife a vacuum for our anniversary.

:D

[matcom]

2. what do they say about great minds?

:rofl:

[undeterred]

3. You sure know the way to a girls heart.

:loveya:

[Wickerman]

4. You rock

no, seriously, you rock.

[BlondieK143]

5. No, the best husband ever would

do the laundry his damn self! :D

[matcom]

8. i'm not allowed near the laundry

after that "bleach incident" years ago :D

[Shell Beau]

12. I'm with you on that one.

The best thing my husband can do is stay far away from my clothes.

[JimmyJazz]

37. OMG! You DID that on purpose so you wouldn't have to do

laundry EVER again. I'm onto you and your tricks :spank:

[matcom]

38. i have been accused of that before

by other male friends who worship me for that incident but alas, twas not my intent :D

[MrSandman]

62. It worked for me....

:evilgrin:

[sybylla]

63. That's called "Strategic Incompetence"

in Dilbert-speak (the comic by Scott Adams).

I accuse my hubby of that all the time and he usually just grins at me for it.

[NewJeffCT]

11. I think my wife would neep a map to get to our laundry room

Seriously... After almost 4 years of marriage, I'm still trying to get her to separate whites from colors.

[DS1]

14. The only skid marks the best husband in the world would create

would be in the driveway upon realizing that his lovely wife is down to less than three tampons :D

:bounce:

[fleabert]

79. damn straight...

although I might buy myself the front loading machine, those things are awesome on water usage.

[Talismom]

69. You go, woman! Mine cooked dinner again tonight--

planning a nice thankyou for tonight!:loveya:

[Blue_In_AK]

78. My husband does his own laundry...

AND insists on washing the dishes -- BY HAND!! He says he enjoys it. :crazy:

[Beer Snob-50]

6. does she know how to use said washer???

that is important.

[jonnyblitz]

7. yes, making the wife's duties more pleasant is KEY

to good husbanding. :thumbsup:

[matcom]

10. that's why i bought her top of the line

massage oil too! :D

:hide:

[hyphenate]

9. Um, perhaps as a woman I just don't get it

but how the heck does buying a washing machine qualify you for "best husband?" Did you let her have a greyhound? Hmmmmm?

[BlueJazz]

13. I happen to know that THIS is what you bought her....

[underpants]

15. Do you not own a truck? Are you too dainty to lift things?

Delivery is for wussies.

[matcom]

16. YES!!

dainty :P

[Dr.Phool]

17. Mine arrived a half hour ago

I'm doing the first load right now.

[MissB]

18. Hope you were "best" enough to buy

the platform to raise the front loader off the ground a bit.

[matcom]

19. fuck no

not for the extra $200

she can bend down just fine thank you

[MissB]

20. Aw man

that extra $200 is going to save her back. Poor Mrs. Matcom. :cry:

[xmas74]

60. Get some old warehouse flat crates

or something along that line. Sometimes they are free.
Doesn't look that great but sure beats $200.00.

[MissMillie]

21. Are you saying you bought HER a washing machine?

You didn't buy it for the both of you?

Or do you already have one and hers broke so you're replacing it so she can wash her own clothes and not tie up your machine?

[Heidi]

22. Nuh-uh.

While I'm certain you're an absolutely excellent husband (and a cute one, too, from the Boston photos I've seen), _this_ guy is the best husband EVAH.


Mr. Heidi, who not only purchases appliances, but also uses them!

[gmoney]

67. He may also be the luckiest hubby ever...

...but of course Heidi will deny that luck had anything to do with it.

[Heidi]

76. Nope. I believe in luck

to a certain extent. If not for luck, I'm certain some of the best circumstances of my life never would have occurred. :shrug:

[Misunderestimator]

23. Aren't you a sweetheart... did you get her a new vacuum cleaner too?

:eyes:

[matcom]

24. no.

she prefers scrubbing the carpets by hand :D

[Misunderestimator]

26. Of course... and cleaning the toilets with a toothbrush I bet.

[matcom]

27. if it was good enough for me in the Army

its good enough for her dammit!

[blondeatlast]

25. Ahem...

Mrs. Matcom's???

A----HEM!

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

28. If you were the best husband ever, it would be YOUR washing machine

:evilgrin:

[matcom]

29. wrong

i'm the best husband ever because I got the new stove :P

[progmom]

30. that would be progdad

:woohoo:

[Taverner]

31. Oh, I thought you put the toilet seat down

I never could figure that one out....:freak:

[Dave Reynolds]

32. Yeah, but what about her dog?

You mean bastid, you.:P

[matcom]

35. she has a dog already

i'm #1!! i'm #1!! i'm #1!! i'm #1!! i'm #1!!

[Dave Reynolds]

55. No, the greyhound.

Don't play forgetful with me, I wemember.

[Midlodemocrat]

33. Ha. I can top that.

Mr. Midlo got us a new front loading washer and dryer AND does the laundry on weekends.


(okay, he does the laundry to help me out because I take care of his Dad all week, but still, he rocks)

[JimmyJazz]

34. "so SHE can easily wash the king-sized comforter"

Rut Ro 'Raggy - you made a boo-boo.

[matcom]

36. i don't see it

:D

[yvr girl]

39. *ahem* I heard from Mrs. Matcom

she said:

He bought it??? how about it went onto my sears account, which I just happened to add him to!! He is such a brat!! And I will be the one that pays it off and he will not even be allowed to touch my machine. He is banned from doing laundry, because he throws everything into the dryer. Ask him about the time he had to soak a white turtle neck in bleach and see what he says!! Hahaha!!

[matcom]

[GOPisEvil]

41. You are so busted!

:rofl:

[matcom]

42. hey!

it was ME who logged onto Sears and put in our information! don't i get credit for ANYTHING? :D

[yvr girl]

43. I'm consulting with your Mrs. on your punishment

I'm surprisingly vengeful. You better be nice to me.

[matcom]

46. no.

i think i might like punishment more :D

[yvr girl]

51. It's not like we're going to spank you or anything

We'll devise a punishment especially for you.

[GOPisEvil]

45. Ooooh...don't strain yourself there big guy.

;)

[matcom]

50. i think i got carpel tunnel

from the experience :P

[Yavin4]

48. Sears Is Still Around?!?!

I thought they were eaten up by the WalMart behemoth.

[Lilyhoney]

77. Sears merged with K-Mart

[arwalden]

44. Washing Machines... Better Than Greyhounds

... and they help to remove soil and make things CLEAN ... not creat poop and make things DIRTY. (But... a washing machine doesn't do a very good job of scaring away prowlers.)

[Yavin4]

47. Are You Following The Rick Santorum Guide On How To Domesticate

your wife?

[leftofthedial]

49. you are so romantic

[matcom]

52. ain't i though?

i think she needs a new drill for her birthday :bounce:

[leftofthedial]

54. get her the cordless one

it is more versatile

:evilgrin:

[crispini]

56. No, no, cordless suck.

You always have to be charging that battery and then somehow you fry the power supply and have to get a new one.... REAL women prefer drills with cords attached.

:evilgrin:

[prole_for_peace]

66. i've gotten a drill for my birthday. and i loved it.

i also got a fancy hammer. i have no problem getting things i need.

[ScreamingMeemie]

53. I hope it ain't a Maytag....

Just saying...:shrug:

And MrG outbested you last year when he bought it for me. :P But you are a really nice husband. ;) :hi:

[matcom]

57. he is indeed a good man

with VERY clean clothes :D

[Telly Savalas]

58. Recommended for greatest page.

[matcom]

59. LOL, you rock

:yourock:

kicking so Mrs Matcom can read the whole thing

[Celeborn Skywalker]

61. Kick!

:kick: :dem:

[I Have A Dream]

64. Senator Santorum would be be very proud of you!

:)

[Penndems]

65. If you got her a Whirlpool Duet washer, you ARE a good hubby!

Our 15-year-old Westinghouse finally gave out about a month or so ago. Called a repairman, who came out, inspected it, and said "The motor's burned out and the ball bearings are shot. It'd be cheaper to buy a new one."

I mentioned that I wanted a front loading machine instead of the top loader the Westinghouse was, and was thinking about the Maytag Neptune. He said, "No, that's a piece of junk. If you're looking for one of the top-of-the-line models, go with the Whirlpool Duet."

So - we went to sears.com and, fortunately, they were having an appliance sale that weekend. Hubby ordered it, and paid an extra $10 to have the old one hauled away. It was delivered and installed three days later. (Thank you, Hubby! :loveya:)

Gotta tell ya, Matt - I absolutely LOVE this washing machine. Never knew doing the laundry could be fun, LOL. It does everything but load the clothes itself. Before I used it the first time, though, I had to watch a DVD that accompanied it to learn how to program its computerized "brain". All in all, an outstanding product.

Makes me wish our dryer would bite the dust, so we could order the Whirlpool Duet version of that!

[MrSlayer]

68. Good job. That should get you some tonight.

It would for me, my wife loves household appliances.

[ClayZ]

70. I got a lawn mower for my birthday

from my husband one year... funny guy!

[Pachamama]

71. I'll swoon & so will she if your actually doing the laundry, washing &

folding, putting the clothes away and then later on making passionate love to her....

:eyes:

[nickgutierrez]

72. I want Mrs. Matcom's version of the story.

THEN we'll see just how 'great' you are. :)

[yvr girl]

74. She gives a pretty good report

I checked.

[Not_Giving_Up]

73. But, when does the greyhound arrive?

Hmmm? Mr. Wonderful?

[In_The_Wind]

75. hold it...

you didn't say anything about when the new dryer is being delivered
