I used to love her but I had to kill her
I used to love her, oh yeah but I had to kill her
I had to put her six feet under
And I can still hear her complain

Ladies, nagging is unnecessary. If a man says he'll do something, then he WILL do it.

There's no need to remind him every six months about it!

Men have a shorter life expectancy than women. Coincidence? I think not.

I think the operative phrase is “Yes, Dear.”

So if she is nagging me about getting more life insurance, does that show premeditation?

Why do Men die before their Wives?
Because they want to.

Nah, it’s that passive-aggressive guys make a point of not doing anything they’ve specifically been asked to do. All that negative effort and emotion makes them croak early. That they have a nagging wife is correlated with that, but as another effect of their behavior—not the cause of their demise.

Mark Twain claimed he had a severely nagged uncle who had gone deaf years ago. However he could still hear the word whiskey whispered three rooms away with the doors shut.

In 33 years of marriage I've used command voice
maybe 5 times, and they were all emergencies.

Wife can use command voice 5 times in an hour.

Since when is sauce for the goose, sauce for the gander...

I'm surrounded by examples of being told what to do.
It is RARE for me to tell her what to do...

What gives with this?

Reminds me of a joke my husband once told me. A man went to the doctor after experiencing severe anxiety. The doctor asked, “Is your wife a big nagger?” He replied, “No, she’s just a itty bitty white woman.”

Bad taste, I know. But I miss him so much. He was the nag in my family. I’d give anything to hear him nag me again.

Probably dying is the only way they can get any peace.

Not following biblical principles eh. The bible teaches men to be the head of their households and wives obey their husbands. Of course husbands are supposed to love their wives as Christ himself loves the church.

It’s a tall order, and somewhere along the line, everything went awry.

“I think the operative phrase is “Yes, Dear.” “

About 20 years ago I came up with the idea for a
“Yes Dear Box”. The guy carries it in his pocket, and whenever necessary pulls it out and presses the button, which
causes the Box to announce “Yes Dear”. Saves wear and tear on the vocal cords.

Sorry to hear about that loss, the joke was funny.

I trust you’re both saved, in which case you’ll hear it again heh.

A buddy and I used to trade one-up stories with each other about some of our bad marriages.

I told him about the time I tried to run through the house to escape the nagging and my wife ran after me. You could run a circle through the house, and eventually I started pulling over chairs after me to form obstacles like kids do when they chase each other through the house.

My buddy said that was nothing. He got in his car to drive away from the nagging one time and his wife threw herself down on the driveway behind the car so he couldn’t leave.

I allowed as how his story did in fact beat mine.
