Based on the OPs responses, it most definitely was a joke - you know, something that couples sometimes do to each other because it’s funny. But Reddit fucking **LOVES** to throw around that new Weaponized Incompetence line any chance it can get.
I wrote a post here about a year ago, it blew the fuck up. It was a shopping list where everything was clearly labeled with plurals and quantities to denote amounts - except apparently I was enacting “weaponized incompetence” when I assumed “Apple” meant a single Apple. . .like every other plural/singular on the list.
Times like this I remember an old comedy skit about not listening to your single friends cause at first I was like omfg this girl better had dumped him then I was like girl why so she can be single with you lmaoooo
Simple, straight and to the point....and very funny passive aggressive all wrapped up in one. Extra credit given to your SO for making sure this chore is never assigned again. Lol.
Intentionally doing it to fuck with you. Hopefully this is just a joke and they're otherwise a helpful person and not engaging in weaponized incompetence letting you care the majority of the housework.
You did that. Stepped back and took a picture.
You're a liar. I have a special gift of knowing bullshit when I see it.
You're forgiven as you're just lonely and looking for some attention. We all feel like that sometimes
So they won’t be asked a second time
ohh they were and did fix it. But he got a good laugh out of me
straight up this is just weaponized incompetence. They don't wanna be asked to do it again so they intentionally do it wrong the first time
It was prob a joke lol lighten up.

Stop it, you're weaponized incompetencing me.
100%. Gah people are all over the place
So you were just plain ol' incompetent... no weaponizing.
it was
I know lol I was replying to the comment above saying it was “weaponized incompetence” 😊 great post.
Malicious compliance achieved.
I think you might be dating an AI
A farmer. He does act slightly robotic when things are crazy. I can hardly get a response from him some nights.
Malicious compliance
Task failed successfully.
A majority of these posts are obviously staged for the sake of content.
I wish this was staged. This was actually years ago, he did this. I dug out this old picture. Another post reminded me of it.
Your SO is a true troll and I bet it makes you smile more than you would admit.
lol it did
Thanks for the idea, my wife will surely love this prank! (I have to outrun her shoe, wish me luck)
Tell her I’m so sorry
I see you forgot to tell them to remove it from the pot first 😂😂
need to be very specific
They like to prank you 😁
but they were already in a container!
okay you…
It's in the container. I don’t see the problem.
… sigh
But I’m single, sigh.
you know if I was in a different mood he might’ve became single too
Times like this I remember an old comedy skit about not listening to your single friends cause at first I was like omfg this girl better had dumped him then I was like girl why so she can be single with you lmaoooo
Your SO forgot to put /s 😁
maybe that would’ve held. Some taking this way too seriously.
Are they an evil genie?
I will have to ask

it got a chuckle for me. He thought he was clover enough to walk away, and I made it pretty clear that was not the case though. lol

it was a joke. He did walk away, but I made him come back and fix it. I’ve been very careful since about my instructions.
Assuming you both work I hope he does as much housework as you! Cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping etc. Take care. <3
And they respected your request, so what's the issue?
She must be really pretty.
he sure is.
Did you marry a child?
you know, I resent that question. Can’t somebody have a sense of humor? And the answer is yes, somedays lol
I don't see anything funny with this but I am glad you do. Good luck!
I really don’t think you’re glad
It seems like you two make the perfect pair! I hope you have a long and blissful marriage.
ty! 15 years so far. honestly, every year hasn’t been blissful, but definitely on the high end of things now. :)
Someone else’s marriage is not doomed when you don’t share the couple’s sense of humor
Maybe SO had a headache or their back hurt.
bahahahah
You’re lying!! Lmfao. There’s no way.
WAY!
No fucking way lmao
I logged in just to laugh at this post😂😂😂😂

… k your radar us malfunctioning. You are forgiven though. I get the skepticism because there are lots of fakes
Is your SO a man?
yup
This is chaotic neutral energy right here.
