...And then there was one
The sickeningly wonderful, and newly crowned, Mrs S has an annoying and bizarre habit.

When she eats something of which there are many (say, biscuits or Pringles) she will always, ALWAYS, leave one in the packet.
Consequently our 'treats' cupboard currently contains a Pringles tub with one salt n viegar pringle in it; two packets of jaffa cakes, each with just one said cake in; a chocolate digestive; one malteser; one giant cadbury's button; one Chedder (the biscuit sized ones, not mini chedders); one crispbread (why that's even in the treat cupboard, I do not know).

I assume she does this so I can't accuse her of 'eating them all' because there's still one there.

I call shenanigans.
It is scientifically impossible to have non-empty packets of jaffa cakes.

Damn you science!

Similarly
My older sister used to do that, then blame me for "finishing them" when I ate the one left over.

Bitch.

Hmm.
I think Joe needs to test this one out. His mrs wonderful might just be constructing a trap to create an excuse to stab him in his sleep.

What you should do is...
...collect up all the single treats and mash/melt them into some unholy salt n vinegar/jaffa/digestive/honeycomb/chocolate/Cheddar/crispbread monstrosity. Divide it into about 12 nice snack size lumps and pop them into a tin. See if she eats all but one of those!

This is absolute genius.

I used
to do this. Now I don't care about appearances and whether I've been selfish so I just eat the whole fucking lot without shame.

Tea leaves
My girlfriend always leaves a largish gulp of tea in the mug after she's drunk the rest. I've heard all the 'reasons' for this...

"it's gone cold"

"there's funny bits in it"

"i forgot to finish it"

I don't like the waste of good tea, and I especially don't like to clean up mess that invariably spills everywhere when I pick up the quarter-full, sloshing mug.

I swear I'm going to start keeping the residues in the fridge and when I've collected a full mug, microwave the lot and give it to her without telling.
