What Backhanded Compliments Do You Get From Your So?

[Nicolette]

My darling husband is setting up my new 27" Mac which will also run Windows as I have killed this PC and it won't last much longer. Instead of dual screens as the current set up, with the 27" I can have dual windows open on the same screen and a lot less cables and space taken up.

In the process of unpacking the Mac Anthony saved the screen cover bag (cutting off the unneeded bits which secured it for packaging) and gave it to me. He said 'loving' "this is for you as you are so an*ly retentive". He bags me out about it yet encourages and likes that I like organization (much mellower than I used to be).

What backhanded compliments do you get?

Whilst watching something on TV with my H. It was about someone who was convinced she had captured an alien and had tied him up. Actually the green 'blood' was from a paintball gun. My H leans across, takes my hand, looks into my eyes, and says 'see, you aren't as crazy as she is, there is hope for you yet'

Oh... Nicolette told me after watching some real nutjob on TV that I commented upon... "see baby, I'm excellent compared to some of women in the world."

What do I do with that?

Concede defeat? :giggle: :inlove:

I don't do those comments anymore.

Makes my skin crawl hearing someone having to put up with such.

I'd kick his ass to the curb.

While feeling insecure that my head was too big(thank you childhood bullies), my husband said "Honey, you can't help that, it's genetics" then wondered why I was more upset. :eek:
