Good for her! A lot of Everettes outbursts are against people and situations that deserve it.

But to come home to a woman who's cooked for you, and taken care of your kids all day, and your only reaction is to belittle her efforts???

Yeah, on his ass he goes!

Yeah with his wife it is always the other way round. He is the ass in all interactions with her and gets treated the same way he treats others. He really isnt that sympathetic of a character when he behaves so hypocritically.

I’m glad that he doesn’t get treated with a double standard, at least!

Especially since that seems to be three babies, all screaming! There'd be no dinner if I had to deal with that either!

Yes Everett, can't you see the babies are not done cooking in the giant pot (also laundry bucket and bed)?

She's trying to breastfeed. Maybe bring her a comfortable chair and a drink, after you get out of the weeds, fool.
