That rhyme was the first thing that popped into my mind when I saw this too!
GEORGE: Oh, she’s got the hue. So, what’s going on with you and Melanie? I mean, I know you’re not getting married, but uh, things are happening?
JERRY: Well...actually, we kind of broke up.
GEORGE: You what?
JERRY: Well, you know, we were having dinner the other night, and she’s got this strangest habit. She eats her peas one at a time. You’ve never seen anything like it. It takes her an hour to finish them. I mean, we’ve had dinner other times. I’ve seen her eat Corn Niblets. But she scooped them.
GEORGE: . . . she scooped her niblets?
JERRY: Yes. That’s what was so vexing.
“The woman decided that her husbands habit of eating peas with bread instead of a fork....”
Oh. And I had visions of picking them up one at a time with a clear plastic Krazy Straw...
My mom used to love asparagus - she would cook it the normal way, either in boiling water or steam it.
Then she would strain it and put it in a bowl.
Then she would add about a cup of milk, mash it up, and start eating.
Practically made me hurl every time I ever saw her do it...
In the Three Stooges Moe would cover his knife with mashed potatoes and then use that to stick to the peas.
LOL! Thanks for the script. Yeah, I can still hear him complaining!
....she’s just pee’d he won’t eat mushrooms
I had an old boss that would do this in restaurants. He would grab a spoon and fill it with butter. He would then stick the butter in his mouth and then he would take a bite of bread/roll. At least a spoonful of butter with every bite of bread. By the end of the meal, I bet he ate at least a cup of butter.
Needless to say, he’s not alive any more.
It starts so innocently, with separate tubes of toothpaste, then separate bathrooms, then, inevitably, the separate bedroom chambers, each with it’s own key assembly. Actually, I have met many women who insist on having their very own bathroom, the lucky ones don’t even allow their children to enter “Mom’s Bathroom”. You’d better not be caught in there!
LOL!
Well, you know how it goes; it’s never really one thing. First it’s the toothpaste, then the toilet paper, she turns around and sees socks on the floor and when she sits on the toilet and he’s left the seat up it becomes justifiable homicide.
Even when trying to stab they tend to get away (especially if you make the mistake of eating from a clean plate.)
He was just doing what Obama told him to do.
seriously?
SERIOUSLY?
This woman obviously did not take marriage very seriously
Well, at least he didn’t mush them all up between the tines of his fork. Revolting.
What I like to do at home is pour them into a paper cup. That allows me to funnel them into my mouth so I can get a whole bunch of them at once. I wouldn't do that in a restaurant however.
Eating corn is difficult as well. Especially corn on a cob. Unless you are at a backyard barbeque, stay away from corn on the cob at the dinner table. Not only will you gross people out but you will get the corn stuck between your teeth and then you have to decide whether or not you are going to free it with your fingernail or hunt down a toothpick. Either option will not sit well with your spouse and could earn you a divorce.
