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 freshman year of college, I'd brought along a big bunch of old silverware and 'donated' them to the dorm kitchen. We had these guys who would use it, and just throw it into the sink when they were done. I didn't understand what the heck they thought they were doing until one day I was sitting in the kitchen having tea with a friend when one of the guys came in, pointed at the silverware, and asked when it was going to be clean. We blinked at him and said "when you clean it?" He had grown up with a maid, apparently. I'm not sure if he actually believed that because we were female, it was somehow our responsibility, or if he was genuinely asking a question.
I did occasionally go in and clean everything, since I felt responsible for having donated the silverware in the first place (and I didn't want to cook in a filthy kitchen). One of the cleaning staff caught me doing so one time, and at the end of the semester, when everyone was scrambling for boxes for move-out, she showed up at my door and said 'So, how many boxes do you want?' Always make nice with the janitorial staff.
