Question about murder

[tripperfunster]

No, not how to do one! :D

Dateline has had a marathon of murder mysteries and I've also been watching a lot of forensic files on Netflix. My husband has made the observation that men seem to really like killing their wives right on or around birthdays and anniversaries. AND HE'S RIGHT! WTF?

What are dudes thinking? That it's paper, wood, crystal and MURDER for the order of anniversary gifts?

Any thoughts?

I... was unaware of that correlation.

Unless it's the pressure of finding The Perfect Gift getting to them, I've got nothing. - Makes one reconsider the ambition of ones wishlist, tho... :/ Sorry, poor taste joke.

Oh, and hah! My husband and I are actually coming up on our Murder-versary next fall! I'll let you know how it goes. Probably. :p

Pro-tip:

If he wants to take you out on a boat, or in the woods hunting, SAY NO!

Thanks for the heads up. :)

I'm totally calling it our murder-versary from now on! If nothing else, he'll know I'm onto him. :D

I think I*m pretty safe, though. We tend to both forget, so the pressure is at an absolute minimum. <3

Hee! We have the same problem!

A couple of years ago, my friend called me at about 5pm, to wish me a happy anniversary. I was like: Oh shit! I forgot!

Ten minutes later my husband came home, and I very sweetly wished him a happy anniversary. His face dropped, and he said, "Oh shit! I forgot!"

:D

Last year, I was out with a friend, I forget what we were talking about, but suddenly I was like, "wait, what date is it?"

... Which then resulted in a very sheepish "uhm, happy anniversary! ... Two days ago!" to my husband, who was, very apropos, out hunting. :)

SO glad it's not just us!

I got off easy? He just divorced me.
When is the Murder-versary?
They say that as a man gets to that time in life when he realizes that the dreams he had for where he wanted to be in his life weren't going to happen, he does one of three things; changes jobs, gets a new car, or gets divorced.
