Salad Days
 
I got mad at RAH this evening. I dumped a bowl of salad on his head.

I'm not entirely clear if this is a good thing as I so rarely express my anger or if it is a bad thing as I am supposed to detach. It however was definitely funny.

:DA:DA:DA:DA

Well it's not the classic definition of detaching........

Pics or it didn't happen :D.

What kind of salad?

ResignedToWait 09-22-2014 03:58 AM

Was the dressing on the side, or already incorporated. ;)

No dressing yet, but I was told by the wearer that bacon bits, Parmesan & lettuce made it all the way into his boxers, so it definitely flowed well enough! :c014::c014::sons:sons:sons

I frequently fantasize about dumping a bowl of Pancit on my Filipina BPD landlady when she asks me 7 times if I want some. I refer to this as her weekly "food fight."

Sounds like a yummy salad--too bad it ended up in his drawers!

I'll be laughing about this for some time to come.

Along those lines, you might like to read this one, too: http://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/...ml#post3887221

Make sure you're on page 12, then scroll down looking for a post from CeciliaV on 3/28/13 at 9:11 PM. Discussion of "the cheese incident" begins there and is mentioned again thru the end of page 13.

Deploy the cheese!!

HILARIOUS all around, but this part ^^^ even more so... I cannot stop laughing, imaging him sitting there with parmesan cheese in his boxers & you wondering if it was good to address your anger or bad to have not detached.:lmao

This thread made my morning and I would like to thank all participants, but especially Ms. Saladthrower.

lizatola 09-22-2014 10:08 AM

I only got through the first sentence and I was laughing so hard, I forgot to finish reading the post, LOL! I so badly want to do something like that. At least the dressing wasn't mixed in yet!

readerbaby71 09-22-2014 10:11 AM

I am picturing this and can't stop laughing. I also NEED (well, if you wanna share) to know--why did this salad-dumping incident occur?

If there's one thing I've learned, it's to never refuse food from a Filipino woman. There's just no getting around it. I was just talking with my brother about this a couple of weeks ago, as his wife of 20 years is Filipino. One of my best friends is also, and when we were in high school I resigned myself to the fact that I would be eating when I went to his house if his mother was home. Talk about controlling. LOL

Welp - this made ma morning.

This will forever be referred to as "the salad incident of 2014." And every time I get angry at ABF, I'm just going to picture a salad on his head - bacon bits in his shorts, and dressing dripping from his eyelashes.

Thank you - i say you chalk this one up to a "slip." And a magnificent one at that. lol

Reader baby, that goes with Italian women as well. My friend Francie and I would skip out of cosmetology class about once every two months and go to her grandma's house. There were ALWAYS people there.... it would be 3 in the afternoon and the house was ALWAYS filled with visitors. She would feed us... we would try to say no, we just ate, etc... and she would still get us plates filled with so much dang food.

This was a funny post, and although it might not have been the best way to handle things... it was funny to read about. I mean seriously, don't we all have those moments we want to do something like this to get their attention. Ha! I have never acted on it but it was funny reading it. I am assuming he will not do that again!

Most of the time I want to do something like this, however, it is at work! Grin!!!

My home office was a wreck. :abcg: Labor Day weekend I gave my desk to my DS so it really looked terrible with stacks of stuff everywhere. I spent Sunday truly focused most the day on killing clutter (primarily filing/purging paper). Paper is a major failing of mine. While he finished cooking dinner I had started pulling incoming recent papers out of the kitchen and filing them away immediately ... This made me a minute or two late to the dinner table. So he called my work all day, "NOT CLEANING IT IS DEALING WITH YOUR SH---."

I almost went with the red sauce pasta but I did have enough restraint to know the sauce might be too hot yet. :sasmokin::sasmokin:We were out on the deck so he hosed it down after dinner!

readerbaby71 09-22-2014 10:29 AM

Ugh, paper is a huge problem for me too. One of my projects is clearing off the clutter on my kitchen table. I am dreading it! 15 minute increments is the only way I can do it.

NYCDoglvr 09-22-2014 12:00 PM

Too bad it wasn't egg salad.........

TalenCrowhaven 09-22-2014 12:06 PM

...or a Crab Louie.

Now I'm hungry.

ETA: When I first saw the title of your thread, I was thinking of the Monty Python sketch "Salad Days". I was relieved when I saw you weren't re-enacting it.
