    Herself and I have been together so long, she can finish my sentences. And start them. And provide the middle bit. Before I was married, I never realized there was a wrong way to put milk in the fridge.

      Sounds like you married Miss Right. You just didn't know her first name was 'Always'.

        never mind the milk, how often have you exceeded the quota for how much beer you're allowed to put in the fridge? ... and it's not a fixed amount.

          Exactly. Last week my wife accidently broke a flowerpot but then the conclusion was that I had kept it at a terribly wrong place... since last 3 years. :doh:

              This could be exploited to your advantage.   Simply start drinking he beers until the proper number (or less) are still in the fridge.   Problem solved.

                    Depends on the packaging; if it is a bottle, it goes in the fridge-door, unless the cap is gone. If it is a cardboard-pack, or coffeemilk, it goes on the top-shelf - NEVER on the bottom-shelf, which is the coldest place of the fridge. In case of multiple milks existing (as should be), the normal milk in the back, then the cat's milk, then the coffee-milk. The larger volume in front is "not efficient", as you have to take it out to reach behind it. Milk in a can should be covered with plastic wrap to prevent condens from your fridge falling into the milk. It is only allowed to be in the fridge if the outside is not sticky. If it is sticky, clean it before putting it in the fridge. And most important; don't put it on the glass in the fridge directly, but on the baking-paper that is covering the glass to prevent stains and circle's. If you spill anything on that paper, take it all out and replace it. Makes you think twice about suggesting helping with the laundry :)

                      That's ok. Some things are perhaps best left unexplained. I've come to terms with that a long time ago.

                        A buddy of mine has found the perfect solution: Do such a sh*t job of it that she'll make sure you never get involved with the laundry process *ever* again.
