Because all you do is sleep and avoid work? Because Sarge beats you up? Because you feel like a 70 year old private? Because you have an urge to call Ludwig “Otto?”
I have the opposite problem. I live alone, so of course, I do all the dishes. But whenever I visit my daughter-in-law and son, I try to help with the cleanup and they flat out refuse to allow it. They want me to be a total “guest”. I even have to fight to pay the check when I take them out for dinner. 99% of the time I win that one, but sometimes, my son beats me to the server for the check.

Make him clean up after he does cook! I cook, and I clean too!! Of course, I am unmarried but I wouldn’t make my mom or sister clean up either.

I think she is saying he uses too many big pans. I did the cooking and that looks like my day today!

Take him out to eat next time and see how that tastes.

I think that was my wife and I today. I tried to clean up but she took that job away from me.

The 1970s called. They want their punchline back.

Every marriage has its’ own system. Our deal is I cook, you clean. My wife does most of the cooking, so I do most of the cleaning.

Hate to break it to you Janis, but you’re already in a comic strip.

I cook, I clean. My husband cooks, he cleans.
