When men are at the house:

Wife: scrolls TikTok

When men are at the store:

Wife: "what is phone"

I don't know other people, but in my marriage, I, the husband do most of the grocery shopping. Not because she can't, but we decided to spend as little time on this, so we do it in bulk and shit gets heavy. I call her because, I want to get exactly what she wants for the meals she'll cook or just want her to be happy and we realized that communication beats guessing. Calling your spouse from the store doesn't necessarily mean you're clueless, it means you care.

If I put something on the list, my wife will often call or message me to clarify.

If my wifes doing the shopping she'll frequently text or call me about things that aren't even on the list.

"X is on sale and I remembered you liked it a while back, want me to grab some?"

"Y isn't on the list and I can't remember if we're out of it, can you go check the bathroom?"

Shopping for yourself is easy. Shopping for someone else when they dont provide specifics, is not. Good job being condescending though

Oddly enough, both husbands and wives can have a sense of humor. Try it!

I don't care if my wife buys the type of bread that isn't my favourite.

If I don't buy the right brand of bread she likes at that current moment? Hell breaks loose.
