An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.

She doesn’t enjoy getting her nails done, but she likes the result. It seems a shame to put up with two hours of something you don’t like but we paid for, but we went again. That’s where I am now.

Maybe when she’s done we’ll pick up some Indian food but maybe not because we haven’t discussed dinner yet.

I can't be in one of these places for a minute. The fumes trigger a bad asthma attack almost instantly.

I can always smell when my wife has done her nails. I loudly ask if she's running a body shop because of the paint smell.

I'd go one further and say, OSHA wouldn't allow those levels of aerosols in an actual body shop.

I agree with you but perhaps you know how it is. There for moral support.

Did you get yours done as well?

Good question! Allow me to satisfy you with the answer that I did not get my nails done. I simply waited in a chair.

The chair was OK.

I'm always grateful to find a "husband chair" whenever I go shopping with my wife.

Next time, consider getting a pedicure. They're very relaxing.

The other day my wife took me to the nail salon. There were only 3 of them so it was quick & cheap. I asked if I could get a color next time, she said yes, we have a selection.

You should get a mani/pedi together.
