“Baby baby, I brought you your toast again.”
Def annoyed her.
i like to remind her every time her phone rings that its likely, for her.
“you should get that, i think thats for you” x 17 years
Whenever she tells me she’s going to do something I react “Hey honey, you should go and do something.”
“I’m going to the store to get some milk”
“You know what? You should go to the store and get some milk”
“I’m going to wash some pants.”
“Honey, I think maybe you should wash some pants.”

I am going to write you a reply “Sometimes I think about narrating my own life” I said to myself as I finished typing.
I look her in the eyes romantically, with a touch of mischief, and state “you’re a very useful girlfriend”.
I only do it a couple times a year at most.
The look of disdain is priceless.
She knows I love the hell out of her, and the anti climax is brilliant.
“What am I?! Your bloody house cleaner?!”
Then we laugh. Cuddle. She feigns a cold shoulder.
Too much fun.
Sometimes when she tells me she’s going to do… anything, really, I just say something along the lines of “no”, “out of the question” or “you’re not allowed to do that”. Almost 15 years later, it didn’t get old - for me! - yet. As for her, I think at this point she just tuned out these things hahaha
When I leave her, just to go to the bathroom, or to the store or leave her in the car while I go into the store, I’ll say, “See you tomorrow” x 15 yrs
Sometimes when I come back into the room from the bathroom I’ll ask if she missed me.
Me (about to head down to the kitchen): Do you want anything from downstairs?
Him: No.
Me: Just me?
Him (with a sigh and a laugh): Yes, just you.

I do at least two things that she pretends to hate, but definitely does not.
- When discussing something I always reply this way:
- Her: Come on, say something.
- Me: Something.
- When she needs to do something in the future:
- Her: Remind me, that I have to buy milk tomorrow.
- Me: instantly You know, you have to buy milk tomorrow.
Wife: Promise you will always listen to me.
Me: I promise to listen but not do what you say.
Everytime someone sneezed, and she says “Gesundheit”, I quietly ask her, “Did you just say Kazoo Tight?”.
When she’d say “I guess” I’d pretend to have heard “heck yes” and get excited. Then I started with my kids. Now my daughter does it to her own friends and I’ve never been more proud
Texted my wife to tell her I was heading to a mate’s place for “a dip in the pool and some pizza”, then followed up with a texted stream of consciousness, one line at a time, about how I was planning to eat the pizza - not dip in it, then pondering what dip on pizza would be like, followed be weighing up the pros and cons of about 4 or 5 different dips on pizza, and the different pizzas they might work on.
It took about 7 or 8 messages before I got her eyeroll response. Worth it.
Intentionally using the wrong ligger/lægger (lie/put down, in danish) in a text to my SO. She lovingly annoyed me back by intentionally not noticing it.
Whenever I let out a big fart close to her I say her name out loud in a surprised tone accompanied by “that’s absolutely disgusting!” and she eye rolls immediately lol
I sneak up behind her and give her “tiger rubs”, which is aggressive up & down motion on the ribs & side meat.
She loves it x20 years
She squirms when I gently mess with the little ringlets of hair on the back of her neck. It’s cute.
oh baby baby
I think it was there. I can’t imagine leaving it out.
Mine is finding a picture of an animal with its rear end towards the camera, and then saying “hey, guess what?” to her and when she says “what?” I show her the picture and say “Bunny* butt!”
*or kitty, doggy, etc
Unprompted, I make a weird “surprise” face that freaks him out for some reason.
