A few months ago she asked me to remind her to get stamps, so obviously I spent the rest of the day sending “stamps” to her by text, WhatsApp, email, semaphore etc every ten minutes or so.
We’ve got a pad of paper on the kitchen board thing that we use for shopping lists, so I started sneaking “stamps” on there in among the other stuff. She made fun of my handwriting and said it looked like “stomps” so now I write that instead. This has been going on for months now.
This weekend we went to PC World to get a bunch of cables for my desk setup. I made a list - USB 3.0 A extension cable, longer USB mini cable, longer kettle lead, longer printer cable, etc. We get there and a shop assistant helps me find the stuff, and we’re both looking at my handwritten list going down it and checking things off until we get to the bottom and neither of us can figure out what I’ve written.
“Longer stomps”
FUCK
