Doormat for Doormats

landsleaving

I was in woodies this evening and I spotted a doormat with a 'funny' message on it.

'I'm right, he's wrong, that's it.'

Now my first thought upon seeing this was, who on Earth would buy this piece of crap. Then some woman goes over for a look. I'd like to think she was as incredulous as I was that such a product could exist, but I doubt it. There were enough moved around and the stack low enough that I assume sales were made.

Now I wonder, who buys one? Firstly you need a house, and a man, likely a husband, living in it. I can't imagine anyone else wanting one. So a woman... who must really hate her husband to actually announce at the door to any potential guests that she doesn't like her husband and/or thinks this kind of generic humour is actually funny. In either circumstance, it's pretty ridiculous. A private joke to each other that she's 'always right' is one thing, but to gleefully announce to neighbour, friend and postman is quite different.

And worse, what of the man in the house? Has he become so placid and dull from years of being cuckolded by his wife, that he just smiles and says, 'yes honey, it's hilarious.'

I don't get people. I don't get them at all. If your relationship/life has reached the point where this kind of thing is amusing, divorce.

Maybe you buy it if your husband is a doormat...

...but if he is a doormat, you could just ask him to lie down outside the front door.

there should be one for fellas that reads 'make me a sammich' that can be placed outside the kitchen to remind her indoors of her duties

People who buy things like this are the strange kind of humans that have a sense of humour

Weird I know, but it takes all sorts

Hit the nail on the head there.

When you reach 50, most of the joy is gone from your life.

So you replace love with a new doormat.

My doormat says "Merry Christmas."

She's in Woodies on her own. She clearly doesn't have a husband in the first place.

So you were in Woodies, looking at mats you can't afford, then someone bought one & you started a thread about it.

And then you say that you "don't get people"?!!?

I agree. All that crap is tacky and vile, and I'd be surprised if it gets a passing smirk by anyone bar those in the same sad situation, and equally as tacky and vile.

If (god forbid ) your wife , girlfriend or other half should wear a T shirt with
'I'm right , he's wrong, ' on it , you need to walk on the other side of the road .

that's if your stupid enough to be still with her it
