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.

I like peas but there really isn't a graceful way to eat them. If you try to use a fork, they start rolling off as you bring the fork to your mouth, falling and bouncing all over the place. Stabbing them with the fork only captures a few at a time and it will take too long to eat them that way. You can eat them with a spoon but that's considered de classe and could earn you a divorce from your social-climbing spouse.

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.

I hope that the High Court agrees with the defendant that peas are problematic.

One critical issue is that many spouses should use their engagement period to know each other well enough

I knew a woman in her 40s who was getting rather desperate to get married. She was a career type who had amassed a lot of money but evidently found herself alone in middle age. I asked her if she was ever engaged. "Yes," she said, "but I called it off." Err, Why?--"Well, I was talking on the phone with him and he put me on hold to take another call." She told him that since the other call was more important that she was, the engagement was over.

Lucky guy to be rid of such a woman. Later a friend of hers set her up on a blind date with a handsome doctor. I overheard her complaining later about the friend and the doctor. "Just my luck, he's gay!"

1. Don’t serve peas anymore.

2. Use two separate tubes of toothpaste. Better yet, his and hers bathrooms.

Mr Ditter slurps his soup but I never thought about divorcing him over it.

I think these idiots would be more likely to take the time to know their potential spouses in advance, were it not for no-fault divorce laws. At least that’s what I would do. Heck, I’d do it anyway!

DANG!
