Not that any of y'all care.

Legit question: do not ever watch something your wife wants to watch yet you really have no desire to? (Full disclosure, I would’ve definitely watched the Friends Reunion even if Mrs Wease didn’t want to. I just wasn’t so adamant about when.)

What?

If you're asking if I've ever watched something my wife wanted to watch but I didn't... Well, no. There's never been a thing my wife wanted to watch that I wasn't into. I'm up for whatever.

As far as the Friends Reunion goes though, we both were VERY excited to watch that.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

The bolded part amazes me.

What did you think of the reunion?
