Hahaha, nope, he never figured it out about the life insurance.  Still pays the bill regularly and I'm still the beneficiary.     Can't understand that as it's been months since we spoke thankfully.  My name is still on a bank account with a few thousand in it too.  Shopping or traveling anyone??

I should have asked him about the helmet, and can't believe that never occured to me.

Seriously though, I am sorry if I am bring up a topic that you all have spoken of, but I am just floored with the language/speech differences.

Genius started saying things like:
1.  That's cool man.
2.  What's up Dude?
3.  Beginning sentences with "D**n, Dawg"
4.  It's like...

Lots of swearing.  Not just at me, but using it almost as though it were punctuation.
"D**n dude, these are some F***ing bad a$$ Batman shows."

Yep, started watching the old Batman shows because "Current sitcoms are too predictable."

And holding up his hand with the "talk to the hand" gesture.  I must say that one was pretty annoying, but not quite as annoying as him calling me man and dude.

Oh, and the counting-"you have 5 seconds to tell me what's for dinner-1, 2, 3, 4, 5-too late, times up, don't have time to wait for you dude.  If you can't tell me, I will just starve."  Ok by me big boy!  I know I won't.

All this from a man with a doctorate.   Boggles the mind.
I don't miss that at all.

Yup, mine too with the language differences.  The running joke between D and I now is "Cool."  The closing for pretty much every conversation is "Have fun!" To D:  "I hope you have fun at school this week."  Me to D:  Huh, I thought school was for learning ...

Oh mine too! My S10 chastised me the other day when I said cr*p. He told me he wanted me to be different from Daddy and that Daddy swore all the time. H never used to swear! It was something he abhored. Go figure!

Lawprofessor: you had me laughing so LOUD!! Your comebacks were brilliant.

Mine bought an off/on road bike, doesn't wear a helmet and when he first got it he was doing some stupid stunt in a parking lot and dumped it on himself! He hurt his foot ,leg and his rib are pretty bad.The rib thing was because he had his ipod charger in his pocket and it jabbed him in the rib..... Too bad. A few weeks later he managed to do something once again. How does that saying go? Third times a charm? I never said that to him though and he has driven a bike in the past.

I can't stop laughing, he got jabbed in the ribs with the ipod charger  , omg, steve jobs has so much to answer for (my H thinks he is Steve Jobs reincarnated).

On the language thing, my h swears a lot anyway so no change there, but he started to say  stuff like instead of goodbye or see you he would say "laters" like the kids say. I would cringe every time I heard it.

Then he told my D9 that he was "really effin random", smoked in the car and told her to hang her head out the window if she didn't like it.

Their parenting skills in replay remind me of when you see kids taking their little brothers or sisters out to play with them and being all show off in front of their pals.

We don't like same kind of movies. 

Funniest thing that she very very rarely watch whole movie.

[Wed2Him?Whatever.]

Anybody ever get "accused" of something that was actually a positive thing?  I will always remember my H telling me I was "too loyal."  Wait... what?  I am TOO loyal?

That was May 2012 when he announced he'd be looking into a divorce.  This came after his (August 2011) accusation I was cheating.  Ya just can't make this stuff up.

I got told that I loved him too much, that maybe that was my problem! This was soon after BD...
