You Might Be Married To A Douche Bag If....
Your husband is walking in front of me at the entrance to the Union Square subway station. How do I know he's your husband? Because he's on his cell phone apparently trying to get out of the doghouse. "BABE! BABE!" he shouts into his stupid cell phone, doing nothing short of strolling down the stairs that I would normally hustle down.
I would be willing to overlook the fact that he's wearing a Yankee's jersey if he were an 8-year-old or an actual Yankee, but he isn't. He's a major douche bag who is walking extra slow while SCREAMING INTO HIS CELL PHONE THAT HE'S LOSING SERVICE apparently unaware that yeah, that's what happens when you walk UNDERGROUND.
I'm tempted to push him down the stairs, but I'm momentarily blinded by the fact that he's wearing more gold chains than Mr. T before he gave up his chains for charity, gold chains that nestle into his black neck hair, and perfectly compliment his awesome rub-on tan. I know it's a rub-on tan because underneath the hair and the gold chains you can actually see marks where his clumsy fingers tried to rub in the bronzer. Normally I wouldn't have noticed such minutiae but THAT is how slow your husband was walking down the stairs while shouting to you over his cell phone. THAT is how big of a douche your husband is.
Now your fake-tanned husband has hung up his cell phone, and is meandering slowly in front of the subway turnstiles, blocking the influx of sweaty people who are JUST TRYING TO GET HOME and not dodge body contact with YOUR husband, who, by the way, is not only wearing a Yankee's jersey and a pile of braided gold chains, but is also wearing khaki shorts and blinding white sneakers.
If this description resembles the man you wake up next to in the morning, the man who gave you his last name and a mini-van full of gold-chain wearing kids, then congratulations: you married a douche bag.
You see? Do you see what I've had to put up with all these years? You think I like being married to Mr. Douche Bag? You think I like taking his name, raising his kids and cooking his meals while he sits in the bathroom rubbing on his tan? It's enough to drive this babe crazy!
What!! There is a Mrs> Douche Bag!! How could he! He said I was his one and only! No more cookies for that Romeo!!
I guess it's true: good girls love bad boys.
How dare you! I am the loving partner of this man you have so ruthlessly attacked. Also, you should know the chains were a Christmas gift from me and he just loves them. So if you plan on stalking my partner anymore you better get use to the chains.
Yo dawg, get me this guy's number because my chains have been leaving a green tint on my skin when I wear them to the club.
I once sprayed fake tanner, aka tan in a can, on my arm to see how it would look. Well, let's just say the color was somewhere between orange and tangerine. Since then I've stuck with the purple-transparent Irish skin with which God cursed me.
nora,
i'm worried you died of heat stroke.
love,
kate
Speaking of guys in chains, I'm currently listening to Alice in Chains. I'm partying like it's 1994!
