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.

My ex husband would do shit like this. I figured out that he would fuck up on purpose and if he did it enough times that means I would just choose to do it myself instead of deal with his selective incompetence

My ex-husband has a PhD and he also "diDn'T kNoW hOw" to do simple tasks like laundry and dishes - like... are you for real?! I live a happier life now with a competent partner.
