Grounded by the wife.
Well I've been grounded for buying too much this week in the ways of RC. Normally I would just tell her to mind her business or convince her it's too good of a deal to pass up. But with the holidays and vacation this month, I see her point.
Guess those kiddos need some presents and such. Gotta love it. Did get some good deals though and should have a good start on after the holidays builds. But to actually be grounded. Shaking my head. Any of you get "grounded"????

Re: Grounded by the wife.
This is the reason why you trade wife 1.0 for Girlfriend 2.0. That way they can't complain when you buy a whole bunch of cars you really didn't necessarily need and your dinner table looks like this.

Re: Grounded by the wife.
No "My wife is an RC car, and she loves it when I buy her shiny metal goodies."-posts yet?
How disappointing.
"She also doesn't need food, never talks back, nearly always lets out a roar when we have a go at it (except in...those...moments), and will happily let me handle her while watching TV. She even accompanied me to the emergency room once while I was pissing blood!"
And don't forget to post a picture of your RC car sitting on a chair next to its birthday cake.
(for those that don't get it, this is an allusion to those disturbing pictures taken by very lonely anime-fans showing a body-pillow with an image of their favourite fantasy girl having her birthday party with them and a real cake)

That reminds me of a Doctor Phil episode where a wifes husband was in love with an RC car named Susie.EvolutionRevolution wrote:No "My wife is an RC car.
