This may appear sexist (it probably is) BUT how often does your better half accidentally make a whoops.
Case in point - at a wedding weds, middle of nowhere in a wood. Our digs were apparently 10 mins walk away - this was untrue, it was in another county in a place with the same name.
I'm obviously perfect. Might just be my o h .....
ExWife2 booked us plane tickets to fly up to Edenborough about two years into the relationship. She was extremely cross to discover that she had managed to book a ticket for herself and one for her first husband.
Many years later, we renovated our kitchen. When we were done, we were taking the piss about how it was missing a "Live, Laugh, Love" sign and coming up with other Three Word Slogans. I came up with "Banal Vapid Platitudes" and that was her favourite. A few days later, she had a package delivered that was a wall sticker to go over the archway into the dining room.
Unfortunately for the former copywriter, she had ordered "Banal Vapid Platititudes" instead
Now, the thing is, I spotted this but didn't know how to break it to her that it wasn't right without it somehow becoming my fault and my life becoming really quite shit for a while so I let her post it on Facebook and let Denton, Rev and various other pedants point it out instead. I currently have a picture frame with "Banal Vapid Platitudes" in it as a reminder to not ignore massive fucking red flags again.
