Today, my wife and I watch the Chargers play the Packers. Philip Rivers is the Chargers quarterback. Out of the blue, my wife says "Philip is a stupid name." My middle name is Philip. We have been married 32 years. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I told my wife Philip Rivers retired. Being born and bred in Baltimore, she hates anything Colts now. "Philip is a stupid name", she says. I pointed out my middle name is Philip. She laughed, then said, "Are you serious?" We've been married 33 years. FML
Today, my wife told me the main reason she married me is because I have a cool last name. FML
Today, my wife sent me a text expressing her "love and thinking to the future with you, Chad". Too bad my name isn't Chad. FML
Today, I told my family that I wanted to change my last name to my future wife's. We want to have the same last name, and we chose hers because she is an only child, while I have three brothers. Half of my family is laughing and calling me "pussy whipped" while the other half won't speak to me. FML
Today, I found out my wife named our son after her ex-lover. FML
Today, I found out that my wife named our son after her ex boyfriend. FML
Today, my husband of three years told me he only proposed to me because his favorite football team was winning and he had been drunk. I had our second child three days ago. FML
Today, I’m considering a divorce. My father-in-law has never liked me and is very vocal about that, names like "bastard" and "prick" are common. My wife is normally very headstrong and takes no nonsense, but she lets him treat me this way so she must agree with him. The wedding was only a year ago. FML
Today, my wife changed her name back to her maiden name. Why? So people would stop asking questions about us. We have been married for 15 years. FML
Today, I learned that my parents' nickname for my fiancé is "dickwad." FML

Really?? All you have to be upset about is that your wife doesn't like your middle name? I think you'll be ok.

All names are stupid. Doesn't matter if you're called Philip, Irene, Sid... whatever. The worst ones are names like Dick Smalls, and Mike Hunt.

Exactly! No matter what you're named, someone will think it's dumb. It's just a conglomeration of syllables that helps discriminate one blob of cells from another. And most people don't seem to like their middle name. I love mine. Myric. like lyric.

That's a stupid name. You need a better name, something like Samuel L. Jackson.

People aren't the only things that can have stupid names?

Sounds like she forgot your middle name, OP. Does she remember it now?

Hey, just because she married you doesn't mean she likes or has to like your name.
