Imagine a spouse that is creative, loves you very much, and puts effort into your nutrition.

Now imagine someone insulting both you and your wonderful spouse because they go above and beyond the expected standard.

The fuck?

Doesn't matter the country, the Daily Mail comes straight from Satan's arsehole!

[–] bongus_urongus 19 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I imagine it has something to do with Satan's arsehole, Rupert, being the publisher of the Daily Mail.

[–] Badgernomics 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Not really, considering it's owned by Viscount Rothermere, who's antecedent, another Viscount Rothermere printed in the same publication "Hurrah for Hitler's Blackshirts!" I shit you not....

[–] bongus_urongus 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Oh right Rupert is the Daily Telegraph, which is presumably the same bullshit but faster.

It's 1000% jealousy. Almost everything like this is. I know for a fact because I'm a recovering judgmental asshole.

Says more about Daily Mail than it does about the couple. That said, this couple seems awesome.

I've heard in some schools in Japan you get bullied if your parents don't pack you a lunch like this

I wish I had someone to pack my lunch

[–] Num10ck 7 points 11 months ago

become a snack.

[–] Mirshe 10 points 11 months ago

Right? Imagine being upset because someone cares enough to put time and effort into delighting their partner just a little every day.

[–] Cabrio 9 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Eh, offence is taken, don't take offence from people who's opinions don't deserve your respect.

What's wrong with babying someone we love?

Forgot what love is and that there are a million ways of expressing it, huh?

And what's it anyone's business anyways?

[–] CurlyMoustache 15 points 11 months ago

I get up early to make my girlfriend coffee. She is not a morning person. It takes the edge off her mornings. And mine

Men are not allowed to be spoiled. When they are they're called babies, soft, gay, or lazy. Shanias out here emboldening the patriarchy because she wants to put someone down.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago

yeah what kind of crap is this.

What a sweet thing to do for a loved one.

[–] Dubman 40 points 11 months ago (1 children)

If you think that there is anything that the Daily Mail produces that could be considered journalism you are quite incorrect.

Few things seem to insult modern sensibilities more than a loving wife.

[–] CannaVet 29 points 11 months ago

Yo fellas, is it gay to take lunch to work? 😂

[–] Aussiemandeus 26 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Man i would kill to have my wife make me lunches like this.

[–] Blastoid5000 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I wouldn't, my food prep skills far supercede my wife's. I'd likely get mashed potatoes for lunch every day.

[–] Aussiemandeus 9 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I love mashed potatoes,

I've recently started adding a couple tablespoons of this chilli oil thing into it. Its awesome

Your first target: The dude in the article

[–] FartsWithAnAccent 26 points 11 months ago

This is fucking adorable, I love it.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I imagine people who criticize things like that are saying "Stop trying to crawl out of the hole! Stay down here in the hole with the rest of us!"

[–] son_named_bort 8 points 11 months ago

Crabs in the bucket mentality

[–] Vlixz 24 points 11 months ago

This is adorable! Relationship goals >⁠.⁠<

I don't get it. One the one hand people who get behind this kind of article would jump at the change to tell women to "make them a sandwich". Now that it's happening... it's a problem. Wat?

[–] [email protected] 20 points 11 months ago

Lol “lazy women rip marriage-worthy woman apart in a bit to not seem like trash by comparison”

[–] onionbaggage 18 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I've just now decided that his wife probably isn't 'babying' him but that she's prolly just a weeaboo,

[–] [email protected] 16 points 11 months ago

In this world every one has an opinion that must share. Mind your own business...

[–] Skellybones 14 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Packing or having some one else pack you're own lunch is probably so much cheaper then go out. Specially if it's McDonald's

Most men I have worked with would absolutely love to have a health loving lunch. You reach a certain age where you can actually appreciate something like this, and understand that your health is important.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 11 months ago
[–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago

Ah yes, the daily heil

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago

It’d love to have that over fast food garbage.

'Strong alpha men' trying to eat something shaped like a heart.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I love this arrangement of food.

Guess there's not much Alpha about me. Then again, if I'm loved, who cares?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

And when did hearts become things that men are supposed to be afraid of? Thinking you're not masculine enough because you like a shape, or you like love, seems pretty fucking dark.

Making nicr lunches is a good idea. Maybe he is super busy and does not have time to make it himself. And so instead of him buying junkfood etc...

And maybe she is already making lunch for their child and herself?

Might as well make a 3rd one too.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

I don’t go too over the top like this but I make my wife her lunch everyday before she goes to work because I WFH and don’t have to immediately be on my computer before she leaves
