Mother in Laws...the ultimate evil in the universe...

[Muckmaw1]

As I type this, I am listening to my mother-in-law bash me to her sister.

This is funny.

My wife gave birth to our second daughter about a month ago.

My mother-in-law who is about as skilled with children as John Wayne Gacy came in 5 weeks ago to "help".

Now, my house is kind of small so it's pretty cramped.

Tonight, the old broad had a few "Beverages" after dinner. I went downstairs to do some stuff here on the computer, and as  she can't be alone with my sleeping newborn, I waved the baby-monitor on my way past and said, "I'll listen for the baby".

Either she thinks baby monitors only pick up babies, or she's too drunk to realize it, but I can hear every word she is saying to her sister about me on the phone.

hehe....

27 days to go on this extended sentence.

Some of her better attributes, by the way.

She can't cook.
She's no good with kids.
She has a gastro-intestinal problem.

As of this writing, my life blows donkey-balls.

[RTStuka]

For you my friend I will crack a beer and celebrate the joy of bachelor hood, Hope you survive the rest of your sentence. Heres looking at ya

[doobs]

comon give us the dirt what is she saying. had a similair situation with my sister in law.

[DREDIOCK]

Well?????

So just what DID she have to say about you?

Sheesh ya left out the best part.

  My mother in law is fine. Father in law to. in fact tend to defend me over my wife most of the time which pisses my wife off to no end.

Two of my sister in laws on the other hand...

Well, lets just say there is no love lost between us.

The ONLY thing that saves one of em is the fact she's a woman or I would have sent her to an ICU unit long ago.

But she's that way even with her husband.

  I commonly refer to has a perfect example of what could be labeled as justifiable reason for spousal abuse LOL

[RedTop]

Wow...that suks

My Mom in Law treats me great. Father in Law treats me pretty well as well. It has been said he treats me WAY better than any other son in law and I have been in the family alot less time.

My Mom lives with my Wife and I.

She cooks great.
Does Laundry for my wife and I
Cleans house on Thursdays
Takes care of alot of things

SHe is suffering from a disease but MAN she does things. We tell her not to and her response is....

"I live here and I am perfectly capable of doing what I want to."

We just let her go and appreciate it a ton. Its great to have her.

To bad you couldnt have the same thing.

[Muckmaw1]

Basically, she reported back to her sister that my wife and I are fighting, which we are not.

As all married couples do, occaisonally, we have a 5 second exchange of words, then it's over and forgotten. It usually involves me doing something wrong, like putting in too much formula, etc.

To hear my mother in law tell it, we're on the verge of a divorce.

Oh, and I'm grumpy when I get home from work.

I also monopolize the TV set and have alot of porno links stored as favorites on my computer.

Pffft, with her in the house, I need all the pron I can get. God knows, there ain't nothing else happening these days.

Oh, she told her sister she is appauled at how I call my wife "Laci" when she pisses me off.

Meanwhile, my wife thinks it's pretty funny.

So, bottom line...I suck. Next thing you know, she'll be telling her sister I rifle through her purse and sniff her underwear.

27 days...baby!

Most of that stuff is typical.  The Laci line is one I will have to try.  Want to piss off the Mom-In-Law?  Next time she backs up for any reason, you go "beep, beep beep", do the backup horn for her.

My mother-in-law is a minion of the devil  Evil ***** has caused too much heartache for my wife and my boys.  I ignore her all I can.  Even got caller ID so when she calls I will know not to answer.  I could tell ya a lot of stories, but why bore ya.  No way though I would let anyone stay at my house for that long, especially my Mother-in-law.   shudder.

Oh would ya let the old bat watch her Wheel of fortune already.
That being said. it is YOUR TV lol

How the hell does she know about your porn links?

Yanno what you gotta do from now on.
every time she asks you for something just say
"Yes Mommy dearest"
LMAO

[SOB]

Bad mouthing you in your own house?  You should have a taxi waiting for her in the morning.

[Roscoroo]

I'd have to put that goat.se Pic on my desktop .. or something outta the gross site ....

Oh yea you better password protect ur pron collection ...

Toilet seat would get left in Guy mode also .. I'd make her life hell ... then when she brings it all up ask her "what is the meaning of life "  ... sit back watch her squirm her way outta all her little gossip tale's .

[capt. apathy]

OK, first off I'm willing to concede that I'm not renowned for my diplomatic skills.

but were it me, I'd have walked into the room, hung up the phone for her, showed her the monitor and explain how you can hear EVERYTHING on them.  then just let her know, that you pay the phone bill and that you'd appreciate her not using your resources to talk trash about you and post details of your personal life on her gossip ring.

worst case scenario, she throws a fit, stomps out, and refuses to step foot in your house for awhile.  where's the down-side?

sure your wife will likely give you some crap over it at first.  but it won't be near as bad as having her mother in your house for a month so she can give your wife minute to minute updates on your every shortcoming (real or imagined).

IMO, frequent and immediate vents to let people know when they are crossing the line, end up causing way less problem in the long run than holding crap in until you critical failure and lose it so bad that you become the bad guy.

btw- I've been married for over 20 years, get along very well with my in-laws now, so I'm not just talking trash with no concept of the stakes.   even if it doesn't work out as well for you, at least you aren't the one packing the stress from holding this in.

or in therapist speak- "get in touch with your inner bastard"

My mother-in-law, dosen't speak a word of english, and lives 5000 miles away, I think she is great as she thinks I'm great.

You call your wife "Laci?" After Laci Peterson? And you don't understand why your mother in law would be alarmed about that?? And you've got 4 females in the house now, and you have readily accessable porn links on your family computer??

(full one minute pause of silence for effect)

This is classic of what happens when little boys get married before they learn how to become men. Instead of being PO'd at your mother in law perhaps you should listen to what she's saying- sounds like she has a legitimate reason to be alarmed at your bad manners.

This woman interrupted her life to help you and your wife out- she probably wouldn't have to if you'd get your fat bellybutton off the couch and raise a finger to help- and instead of being grateful all you do is whine because she "inconviences" you (read: you can't as easily wank off to porn sites with her in the house).

I feel sorry for this woman for having such an immature little boy for a son in law. Real men don't make threats of violence, however veiled, against their wives. Real men don't have porn links on the family computer for one and all to view. Real men  help out when there's a new baby in the house. Real men treat their in-laws with respect. But you wouldn't know about being a man because you're still just a little boy.

You must be single... either that or your wife is cheating on you.
