These people are incapable of even remedial problem solving. How do they do anything? If they’re home along and hungry I doubt they could even open a box of mac and cheese much less prepare it. How’d they fuck they even get to the shop? They don’t seem competent enough to operate a motor vehicle and navigate a road system.

    Years later I ran into a woman who just… never changed her oil. She was aware that oil changes were a thing, but she said, “Oh, I don’t do that.” She simply bought (or maybe leased, IDK) a new car every couple of years and traded in her rolling tomb of sludge. And yeah, her husband handled anything critical in the household.

    I thought maybe that solved the riddle, but depressing to think how many people must be like that.

      Yeah if I ever do decide to date and my partner pulls this stunt, she’s getting dumped.

        Yeah that would be smart. They have a pretty dysfunctional relationship. She’s an absolute nightmare and he’s a huge misogynist so he considers her crazy behavior “standard woman behavior”. Both of them have been miserable for decades.
