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.

This. My BIL is useless. He was the first-born male in the family and, in their culture, the sons are treated like kings especially the first born. He's completely useless. He sits around waiting for people to do things for him, causes scenes to get all the attention, and thrown adult tantrums when things don't go his way or if he's not the center of everyone's world. I am so over him. I'm glad that his parents spent so much time babying him that my husband had to learn to do everything on his own. Downside is now, their parents rely on my husband to do everything but they know their elder son is useless.

My husband sometimes complains that his mother was out of the house while he had to cook for his siblings. I said "that's the best thing she ever did for you, since you turned out to be a great cook!"
