Woman Files For Divorce Over The Way Her Husband Eats Peas

A woman in Kuwait found the way her husband ate his peas to be such a “shocking sight” that she filed for divorce after they had only been married for a week. The woman decided that her husband’s habit of eating peas with bread instead of a fork was an issue that they could not work out.

That’s not the only recent divorce that has nothing to do with infidelity, abuse or communication issues.

Another woman recently filed for divorce because of the way her husband squeezes toothpaste. “We are always arguing,” she reportedly told her lawyer. “I keep telling him that he should squeeze in the end of the tube, but he stubbornly refuses and keeps squeezing it in the middle. He is so obstinate.”

It’s not always just the ladies…

In another recent case, a man ended things with his wife because she wouldn’t bring him a glass of water. After she told him that there was a servant who could do it, they had an argument and he told her their marriage was over.

“One critical issue is that many spouses should use their engagement period to know each other well enough to decide whether they should go on with their union,” said a Kuwaiti legalist. “The traditional times when spouses really met each other after their marriage are over, so there are now good opportunities to know the future life partner and decide whether he or she is the right one.”

I eat my peas with honey,
I've done it all my life.
It makes the peas taste funny ...
But it keeps them on my knife.

I eat my peas with honey,

It does taste kind of funny,
But it keeps them o my knife.

Now just a minute; that's an entirely reasonable basis to shoot...er, divorce someone.

No way to have ap-peas-ed her in some way?

Wasn’t there a Seinfeld episode with this theme? (Only Jerry was the irritated one, of course.)

Ho hum the tune is dumb
The words don't mean a thing
Isn't this a silly song
For anyone to sing?

LOL that’s funny!!

He probably scooped them up and into the piece of bread with one hand. Been there done that, except that I would do it with my empty baked potato skin and hide them there.

I have a relative who eats his peas with catsup. Can't divorce a brother.

Yes, she ate her peas, one at a time yet she scooped her corn niblets, that what was so vexing.

Religion of Peas...

[Revolting cat!]

I sympathize (with both sides.) Damn things roll off the fork!

Somebody oughta invent cubic peas!

[kjam22]

Supposed to stir them up in the mashed potatoes. Then there’s no slippage issue...

[fwdude]

Why scoop when you can stab? Forks have tines for a reason!
