after 35 years of marriage, I am still convinced I am punching above my weight.

I am regularly reminded by the likes of @Publius Ovidius @Hans Kraay Fan Club @Edna Krabappel and @Goldstone1976 that I'm with someone way out of my league.

The missus (mistakenly) believes she is punching, when the reality is the opposite.

Not a bad state of affairs TBH

No.

In as much as I have a MASSIVE preferance for non-nutters and have been consistently and repeatedly disappointed, regardless of the flying buttresses, so I am happy to be not disappointed by my present arrangements.

(I would suggest this is the opposite of being damned by faint praise, in case Mrs T takes a peek at this at some distant future moment :kiss:).

Do you ever think you were born in the wrong era - like Fred Dibner - I have to read your posts several times and still don't know what you are on about :wink:

Without a doubt, and confirmed by Frankie Boyle.

When I first got with my Mrs, Frankie was at his best so keen to impress my new catch I was in quick to bag front row tickets to see him. Mistake.

Dug me out a treat all night, but the killer blow was “ fvck me you punching above your weight”.

I once went to a comedy night with my then gf. An Aussie comedian clocked us and based his entire routine on how she was too good looking for me.
He wouldn’t leave it alone and kept saying “seriously, you’re gorgeous. what the f*ck are you doing with him?”.
It went from funny, to irritating, to uncomfortable, to weird.
A little while later she left me for a chap who is, to be fair, a clear upgrade on me.
So I suppose the tw*t comedian did have a valid point.

That story would have been so much better if she’d dumped you for the comedian.

I'm very lucky to have a misses to put up with my ugly mug every morning.
It's getting to the point where I have to iron my face after coming off my night shift. :eek:
