Forbidden items in my home...

[Matt Crunk]

If you're looking for fashion over function and comfort, I can understand the hate of Crocs. But if comfort is what you're after, there is no more comfortable shoe than a Croc.

I think my hatred of Crocs is because they are a very in-your-face reminder of just how far the general public's fashion sense has fallen. It's about the same as wearing house shoes in public.

Anything with a Union Flag on it, or an RAF Roundal. So tacky. Don't get me wrong I've nothing against flying the flag but some of the junk...

A TV. Unless it only showed news, weather, financial news, etc. There's too much garbage on TV these days

Or else what? And what ideas? Could you be a little less cryptic?

Let me guess? You're a Texan.

Let me guess...you don't really have any clue.

Let me guess...you don't really have any clue.

That's because I don't want one.

When you're a married guy, pretty much any item your wife dictates is forbidden, is so. That is, unless you're like me and you dig your heels in early in the marriage (having watched several friends give up anything they ever liked in favor of not ticking off their wives) and make it really clear that compromise is always acceptable but that doesn't mean the wife always gets her way. It was a long, hard, and painful fight for the first couple of years but we now have a decent balance, I think, between what we each want in general.

Rhinestones. If something has 2 or 3 rhinestones on it, thats fine, but most clothing/jewelry/accessories with rhinestones tend to be leather,western themed and sold in bulk at a flea market. Little tacky(and that's a lot coming from me

I also don't particularly care for cats...

I'm surprised as a Tennessean that this is so. The home of Music City USA and its Golden Era of singers like Webb Pierce and other 'Rhinestone Cowboys' lol

I have a pair of pirates of the caribbean Crocs I bought on sale at Disneyland when I was five months pregnant and my feet were about to explode. The boy is now 5 /2 years old, but those shoes are still going strong, are still comfortable, and are never worn off the property.

Aha! You have put forward something my father told me a long time ago. How you start is how you end so go into it with that idea and everything will be fine. It has been fine for me like that as well. No one dictates who I hang out with or what goes where without some discussion. Generally my wife doesn't care since I have a decent amount of style though. I get carte blanche most of the time.

Ok, we can excuse pregnancy buys.

I came to this party late, but I must say I have a fascination with Nazi memorabilia. In no way do I support or subscribe to their ideology, but those guys had to be some of the sharpest dressers in the history of militaria. I collect it right alongside U.S. items from WWII.

About the only thing forbidden in my house is uninvited guests and smoking of any kind indoors.

Actually, when I was a younger-much younger-fellow that was precisely my only reason for having some interest in Nazi memorabilia-they were mighty snappy dressers. Though never obtained any. Do have an enormous Nazi flag my great uncle brought back from the war. I hold onto it simply because of historical interest. I do smoke a pipe, though. Earl

Hmm...I'll remember that for next time, see if the husband buys it.

I have some Reichmarks and a couple of other items. History, while sometimes unpalatable, should not be sanitized.

I've heard of such instances myself. It often makes me wonder what the attraction was in the first place. [huh] Though I suspect that some women only seem to want a husband or boyfriend who's just like the husbands and boyfriends of her girlfriends.

Yeah.. we have (a certain amount of) understanding for pregnant feet. Only because those were Pirates of Caribbean crocs.
