How bad have you got it ?

My wife went to get new running shoes yesterday, the style she had had in the past was on clearance, but only white with orange stripes. She told the saleslady that there was no way her husband would allow those things in his house, she paid 15.00 more for the new model and passed on the ugly ones.

Smart girl isn't she? She gets it partly because she's orginally from Florida, but hates the Gators.
 
Luckily for me, my lovely wife has it bad too. Absolutely no orange in the house. She hates those "House Divided" tags too. Told me "how could anyone put anything auburn on their car." Oh man, how I love her! RTR!
 
You handled the situation correctly. There was no other way to handle it. I would have done the same thing myself.

No, you are not childish. Women just don't understand.

Hey! I'm a woman and I understand COMPLETELY. :biggrin2: Everyone who knows me knows that I own nothing orange unless it is related to Harley-Davidsons, and even then, I've passed up buying a shirt that I really liked because it was orange.
 
I had to hear it from all the barners when i worked at little caesars....
have you seen that place recently... its like the auburn booster club... ORANGE EVERYWHERE.
I just told them that it was cool to where orange as long as my blood flowed crimson!
 
You all have it bad? My wife is a vile fan, my oldest son is a vile fan, there's still hope for my two youngest. My mom to this day is still trying to get brownie points with my wife by buying vile gear for the kids. That stuff conviently gets lost though. I think I turned my oldest son into a vile fan on the Bama/ut basketball game two years when we pummelled them. He asked me why I was the only person in the gym screaming at the top of my lungs and I told him because they were losing, going to continue losing and had no chance of coming back. I hate orange.
 
My wife thinks i'm nuts. Today we went to the drug store for a few items, One of the items was a new tooth brush for me.

We see the brand i like and my wife picks up the brush, I tell her to pick another color, she say's why?

It's orange! She say's so! Besides, there are no other colors on the shelf of your brand. I say well, I ain't brushin with no arnge tooth brush.

So we had to go to another store for my tooth brush, and she called me childish.

I got me a white tooth brush....lol

I have had many conversations with my wife about the same sort of stuff. Actually you are the normal one...they can't help the way they are...kind of sad isn't it?

Maybe you can save the younger ones...don't let them be corrupted.
 
Some people are proud of their babies when they can say "roll Tide." Mine could say ****the viles before they were weaned...:biggrin2:

Me and my three year old daughter were looking through Lindy's about a month ago. She wanted me to point out the teams that we liked. I adamantly insisted "the only team we like is ALABAMA!!!" I also pointed out what other SEC teams were in the magazine and here is what we decided.

West:

MSU - stupid
OLE Siss-stupid
LSU-really stupid
Arkansas-inbred stupid
the barn-really really really super stupid!


East:

Florida-stupid
Georgia-kinda stupid
Vanderbilt-smart but they still suck
Kentucky-stupid
South Carolina-visor throw stupid

And last and certainly the least,

UCheat-really really really fat AND stupid!

You gotta love the logic of little kids!! :biggrin:

When I bought my truck the guys says"It's the last burgundy one we got on the lot" I said "That ain't burgundy it's Crimson" he said "well the sticker says burgundy". I said "
If you want to sell it it's Crimson" He says " you know your right it's the last Crimson one we have on the lot"
also When I dress my two year old in the mornings I always put on one of his ALABAMA outfits my wife ( UFgayder grad) will then get mad and change him into something else unless she dosent have enough time in either case she gets mad at me. Too Bad.
She was trying to teach him "Go gayders" and he said " no mama it's ROLL TIDE!"
She couldn't believe it, I told her "Honey, his middle name is BRYANT"
ROLL TIDE Man do I have it BAD!
 
I guess I got it real bad. Nothing and I mean nothing is allowed in my house that has anything to do with orange. My wife and I have had several talks about this over the years.;)
 
No, you are not childish. Women just don't understand.

Bryan, I strongly disagree w/ that statement. I am a woman and I take football more serious than my hubby.

Case in point, I had to go to Ttown yesterday to get my Faculty ACT card and parking pass - I wanted to go to the stadium - soooooooooooo, my husband just drove by it. We got in an argument b/c I wanted to stop and he thought I was being stupid.

So, it just goes to show you, it can go either way :D


ROLL TIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My wife opened the dishwasher the other day to get a sippy cup for our three-year old. She grabbed a cup and a lid, poured milk into it and then handed it to him.

I yanked the sippy cup from his hand and thoroughly lit into her for grabbing an orange top and a blue cup. I tossed the top into the sink and found a nice matching blue lid to place onto the cup.

This shall NOT happen again. :mad2:
HAAAAAAAAAhaha. I was JUST about to post the EXACT same thing. The sippy cups that my daughter uses only come in a few colors, orange being one, and blue being another.

I made it perfectly clear to my wife that mixing the lids and bodies of the two to make a blue and orange sippy cup would amount to the equivalent of the Ghostusters crossing the streams - total protonic reversal. The house would implode. All life as we know it would come to a halt.

It's bad enough that there's a totally solid orange sippy cup in the house. My only consolation is that whenever you pour anything cold in it, it changes color to this pukey purple. So whenever I see my daughter's cup turning back to Orange, I'm like "Hey, you need some ice in that".
