Yay a wholesome meme! Too many “wife bad marriage annoying” memes so this one is a breath of fresh air.

Edit: lot of salty dudes in the comments

[–] Lt_Worf@lemmy.ca 68 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Wife good. Marriage awesome.

[–] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca 39 points 1 year ago (3 children)

If wife isn’t good then wife shouldn’t have been wife in the first place.

My wife’s dope.

[–] VanillaGorilla@kbin.social 35 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Eh, life can change wife, life can change husband. Sometimes it's great for a couple years, then not. Doesn't mean wife not good. Just not the best fit anymore.

You are wise for a perogi.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i like the saying that your partner should also be your best friend

[–] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If ur partner is not your best friend then why are they your partner?

[–] SnipingNinja@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 year ago (4 children)

But I already have a best friend

I'm legitimately surprised to find a comment thread on Lemmy with people in a healthy long term relationship, what a find

[–] Asclepiaz@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

And it's not one of those "wholesome" memes that's just shallow positivity

The author of this comic strip came to our house one time when I was little. He was visiting some family at Pickwick Lake (I think) and somehow came over to our house with some of my stepmom's friends. I absolutely couldn't believe it that somebody famous was there with us at our house. He seemed like a really nice person and he left a couple of doodles of our dogs and an autograph for me and my brother.

That's awesome! Most cartoonists seem like they'd be cool people in person.

(except notably the dilbert guy)

[–] BambiDiego@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It seems to be a hit or very, very miss with cartoonists.

I kind of imagine Gary Larson would be a real life Mr. Bean

I just sent this to my wife and asked her what she thought it meant. She said "that you don't get bored seeing them every day". I corrected her and said "more to the point that even after seeing many sunsets, they are still beautiful and amazing".

[–] Pogbom@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"Just like a sunset, they get lower every time I look at them"... not to say they're not still beautiful haha.

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

can't tell if you're referring to breasts there or saggy old guy scrote. ballsack drag is real.

[–] kool_newt@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

ballsack drag is real.

Sounds like someone needs Scrotox!

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

and I thank my lucky stars to see each one. Life is short. When possible, ogle at your mate's bits, it's worth your time.

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There's an episode of 'Malcolm In The Middle' where the job forces Lois to wear make-up. Hal sees her and and becomes feverish. Later on, she refuses to wear the make-up, comes home, and Hal sees her and becomes feverish.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Isn't that the same episode that Hal and Lois realized they never went more than a day without sex since they met, and spent the entire time avoiding each other?

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Different one. In the one I'm talking about a customer solicits Lois, she marches him into her manager's office and makes him confess. She isn't not raging mad, to her it's just proof that the make up is demeaning. After she leaves it turns out the customer is the manager's brother in law.

There's also an episode where Hal and Lois can't have sex for a month. He paints the house, replants the yard, and gets a promotion at work...

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

The second one was the one I was thinking of. I remember both now that you spelt the plots out

[–] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Real talk, is there Arlo and Janice rule 34?

[–] ThePac@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

Asking the real questions. I still remember seeing the black underwear in this strip when I was young and thought "... Damn".

[–] BambiDiego@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

It exists, so there is.

[–] thepianistfroggollum@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 1 year ago (4 children)

If only my wife would understand this.

There is never, ever, a time when seeing her naked wouldn't make my day better.

[–] Rachelhazideas@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Send her this comic

[–] havokdj@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That is incredibly wholesome! I wish for you to continue to have many happy years together!

Yup! Very true.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I still softly say "booooobiesssss" around my wife in my perviest voice when she is nekked.

[–] JuzoInui@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

She sounds annoyed outside, but inside she’s creaming herself
