My Wife Called Me a Wacko.... My wife came home from work today, and the subject of my preps bulging at the seams came up again. She claimed I have crossed the line on the preps, and that the people she works with think I�m a crazy, cultist wacko. At first I just laughed, but then I started thinking. So I decided to walk across the compound to the underground bunker and see Major Dawson, my second in command, who was supervising the boys in their weapons-cleaning duties. I asked him if he�s heard any such remarks about my character around the compound or in town, and he said he hadn�t. Just the same, I asked him to check with his wives and see if they�d heard anything on the matter. Then I went to the northeast corner of the compound, where my other wife was in the sniper tower on sentry duty. I asked if she had heard any comments about me from folks around town. She said she hadn�t. Then I confided in her my first wife�s concerns, and asked if she thought I�d been behaving strangely lately. Her answer was somewhat comforting in that she said I seemed perfectly normal, but then the two of them have always had the jealousy thing going, so her answer might have just been designed to fuel the fire between me and the first wife. I don�t know. She knows I don�t tolerate that sort of insubordination in the compound, so I guess I�ll give her the benefit of the doubt. As for my first wife�s coworkers, I don�t know what I�ll do. At first I was going to cancel tonight�s harassment and intimidation (H&I) raid against the Walters compound down the road (in retaliation for blowing up one of my chicken coops with a fertilizer bomb), and go out and put anthraxed pigs in their water supply, but these people live too far apart for that to be practical. I guess I�ll just have to take comfort and know that if these assholes are expecting some homemade C-4 for Christmas again this year, they sure as hell won�t be getting it from me!

Re: My Wife Called Me a Wacko.... Sounds like your wife is talking a wee bit too much about your "preps" with her coworkers. Other than that, having your wife call you a wacko is a sure sign that you're doing SOMETHING right!

Great post, Lars. If she doesn't come to her senses, take her out for a breath of fresh air on a deep sea fishing trip... .

Re: My Wife Called Me a Wacko.... A BOFFIN too busy to find real love has INVENTED his idea of the perfect woman � a female ROBOT. Inventor Le Trung, 33, created Aiko, said to be �in her 20s� with a stunning 32, 23, 33 figure, shiny hair and delicate features. She even remembers his favourite drink and does simple cleaning and household tasks

Re: My Wife Called Me a Wacko.... Funny shiz. I don't have enough preps yet to be called a wacko....I wish I did.

Re: My Wife Called Me a Wacko.... Great post. My wife refers to GIM as "that psycho site". She means it in a good way, I think.

immanti | 12-10-2008 07:43 PM
Re: My Wife Called Me a Wacko.... I think she needs to be given a new assignment: tell everyone at work about how she convinced you to get some therapy, how you sold all your preps and are doing much better now, thank you for your concern. That said, this is a common problem with the women folk. My suggestion is that even if you're prepping for them too, your wife (or wives) and family don't all have to know everything you do. NTKB.

My situation is almost identical to yours except I can't afford the anthraxed pigs. I can get putrid bacon but I don't know if that would work. I'm on a budget.

Re: My Wife Called Me a Wacko.... Your problem is you're weak in strategic planning. If you foster the jealousy between your wives skillfully, you may be able to provoke a female wrestling match. Stop worrying and go fill the mud pit.

Re: My Wife Called Me a Wacko.... I don't understand why you boys even bother getting married. Staying single is the best thing ever! You can bang whoever you want and you don't have to deal with any nonsense like the OP. Oh yea and make sure you get a vasectomy you don't want to be knocking up any of these little bitches. Especially in this day and age.

Been there, done that. Much happier married to a nice woman.

I have a similar situation here. Its not gender specific. My husband thinks I'm nuts too and he ran his mouth about my preps to his brother. He had the sense to know he had crossed my boundaries when he did that and it has not happened again. He has come around a little in recent months but still gets uptight about it all. He had a few days off and with all the projects that needed done he decided my preps needed organized. In short he wanted them OUT of sight and out of mind. I learned a while back to keep depressing and cray talk to a minimum around the family. That's what GIM is for..I do my prepping and metal buying in private. If you stop talking about it all the time it eases tension. My husband is also jealous of the time I spend here. He thinks there are too many crazy men here and they are bad influence on me. He is under some illusion I listen to the men here but wont listen to him...:rofl: Just use moderation and try to appear normal around your family. I can see how people think we are not rowing with two oars. You have to try and see it from their perspective.

Agree Avalon, but to me things look pretty nutty from their pespective. I can't imagine anyone spending a beatiful sunny day inside watching overpaid morons playing football. And then talking about it like it's actually meaningful.

And he may be right. :wink: As for the preps situation, it is crazy. Why would any sane person save non-perishable food? Come on! Think about it. It is just plain silly. Do we go to work and save our money to buy things? Hell no! We borrow from somebody (the bank) and pay them interest and let them own our debt into the future. We are smarter than saving for what we want. And we get what we want when we want it! The stories about food not being available in a crisis... all stories! Nothing could shut down our trucking, rail, electrical, communications and shipping infrastructure. The same lunatics "prepping" would have you believe that there are wars in this world and that accidents happen. You know all those pictures about the people stranded in a sports center from hurricane Katrina? That was all fake to scare people. Really... our government cares about us and would never let us have hard times. Storing foods.... now that is a laugh. We can go out and pick apples and tomatoes and oranges all year long. We have grain harvests every month. We don't even have to plant anymore... it just grows by itself. All I need to do is go to the store and buy it. It is that silly stuff that makes people panic for no reason at all. Like when there is a snow storm and my store shelves are empty. It is all because sick people hoard food. If everyone would just buy only what they need for today, we would be alright.

Killer, are you going to try and convince old man Smith he isn't happily married.? I keep telling you guys if you would quite hanging out with woman who will bed you for the price of a Big Mac meal you might meet some quality woman.

14 years, we've been together for 18:36_3_13: monogamous the whole time if you can believe it.

24 years in my case. And she's the one with the high paying career job in the city as well! I take care of the farm and all the animals. Not to mention the two children. There have been good times and bad times. On balance, I would prefer to be married with a family. Gregg

Re: My Wife Called Me a Wacko.... OMG, Lars, thanks for the laugh! I needed that, as last night my (first) wife and I had some "heated" words over the "doom and gloom", preps, etc., and I had to jump in the car and take a two-hour "sabbatical". Luckily, I had some company: 4 tasty Rogue Brewery American Ales!

Re: My Wife Called Me a Wacko.... My wife is kind of funny. She aknowledges that I have been pretty good at predicting the economical crisis well before the time, but she thinks my doom and gloom outlook on the future is borderline insane. but she thought that about my predictions re the financial crisis too... In April we have been married ten years, and I am grateful for that. At this time she is mostly upset about me buying silver instead of gold. Maybe she is right about that...Even though I think the gold:silver ratio of 80 is insane...

Re: My Wife Called Me a Wacko.... Lars, you are a whacko...not for your preps, but for giving ear to the opinions of a mere woman! As if she could comprehend anything more complex than being barefoot and pregnant! If she'd occupy her time in the kitchen or laundry room you wouldn't be dealing with this. The very idea!!! I can't for the life of me fathom why you'd let the homone filled shriekings of the fairer sex trouble you mind. And by "fair sex" I don't mean that's what they are, only what they're good for...why I've got half a mind to... ......GAAAAACK....... Ummmmm...any of you guys know the proper way to remove a butter knife from your neck?
