Today, I washed the dishes for my mom while she was out, as they seemed to be piling up. I accidentally sliced my hand with a knife in the process. After a trip to the hospital, it was revealed she'd been leaving those dishes there "to teach dad a lesson." FML

Today, I cut myself pretty badly with a knife. I was bleeding quite a lot, so I yelled to my husband to bring me some kitchen roll, along with the first aid kit. He rushed in with the roll… to clean the floor. FML

Today, I was making myself lunch. I love cooking, and often, I pretend I'm on the Food Network. I started to slice some tomatoes rapidly, which, turns out, was a big mistake; I sliced my thumb open. FML

Well, that does sound like something I'd say, jokingly, as I begin to do them. Remember, gentlemen, say it AS YOU DO THEM to not leave any confusion and not have a dirty plate flung at your head!

Congratulations! You married an arsehole. Your choices are either suffer it, go postal on him until he both fears and respects you for the rest of your marriage or trade him in for an actually decent guy. Take Powerspin_fmls comment as your inspiration for how a good other half reacts in such a situation.
