That’s a really shitty way to talk about your partner. Is this supposed to be funny or something? I’m neurodivergent and can’t tell

Yep, has a humorous tone for sure. Don’t worry, this guy doesn’t hate his wife.

If anything, this guy is describing a healthy relationship. You don’t have to have a discussion where you share your heart and feelings about every issue. That’s exhausting having to learn and grow all the time.

Imagine a friend that you joke around and are comfortable with. You would say “fuck you, I’ll drip wherever I want. You’re just mad because you have no drip.” That’s a healthy relationship.

At the same time, sometimes it’s good to say “yeah, your way might be better.” Of course, I’m single, so take my comment with a grain of salt.

That’s best friend energy alright. Or, perhaps, a loving sibling energy

Ya know what? I was getting a bit frustrated by the reaction to this, but this genuinely brightened my night. I… don’t get people sometimes, but I do enjoy this place.

someone can totally love their partner and still find some of the stuff they do infuriating.

also my oldest kid did this. it’s infuriating! (but i love him.)

Sure, that’s exactly what your comment history seems to imply. You are not using it as an excuse at all (even if you are)

Really shitty? This is mildly shitty at worst IMO.

Bashing your partner is a really popular form of humor, unfortunately. The older sitcoms for example are full of it. It gets appreciated not because it’s great humor but because it’s a form of coping with the issues, for both the one making the joke and the ones laughing.
