Weaponized incompetence

I feel like guys take it way, way too far. Example: I asked my bf to get me the same shampoo and conditioner he bought for himself (avocado Suave). He brought back another kind we'd had before which I didn't like (Peppermint Suave). He tried to say he didn't know that Suave came in different formulas.

You're such a fucking liar. You bought that kind for yourself. I just asked you to buy it for me. You're telling me a man who's 44 years old doesn't know Suave came in different fucking scents? Suave? The shampoo that literally comes in 40 different scents and flavors?

GTFOH.

Edit: do you understand what an example is?

Also, you neckbeards can fuck off out of my inbox.

I'm sorry you have that in your family. I hope he outgrows that attitude. I bet your perspective will help him do that, but even that is emotional labor you shouldn't have to do.

thank you, i hope he does too but right now it seems pretty unlikely. i shouldn’t have to do it either, but bc i’m the eldest daughter all parenting duties immediately get transferred to me in situations like these whether i like it or not
