Come on, he's russian- he drives better when he's drunk.
only on russian streets. american streets are much trickier. and more importantly, we care a little more about the people getting creamed by drunk drivers.

Well, I didn't actually mean to cause trouble, I just wasn't understanding when Stacey referred to "her" towel in this context. I do have a suggestion, bearing in mind that I have no idea how the bathroom is laid out. Head over to Wal-Mart or Home Depot or whatever, and get a couple of nice towel rods. He gets to do the awesome guy thing by installing them, and the towel problem is solved because there's a couple racks available now.

arsen uses 2 towels? he weighs what, a buck fifty soaking wet. What's he drying, anyway?

perhaps if you were to actually FILM the showering process, we could get a clearer picture. i'm just saying.


*sigh* guess i'll go back over to the atheism thread and argue.

he calls one of them his "ass towel". Does that help?

perth, that is an excellent idea. Really, really, really good. But I've finally gotten him to hang the damn thing up, and now, when he does, I feel like "aww, he thought of me this morning, he really cares about me" although, what he's probably thinking is "i don't want to hear her bitch, i'm gonna hang this up".
Yeah, the extra towel rod is a great idea.

Take it from a long married person. This is one of the major keys to a happy marriage. Think of another way. The idea is not to force the other person to do it your way. The idea is to make both of you happy in your relationship.

I was thinking about your desire to have Arsen teach you Russian. If you're thinking of Russian 'lessons', well if I were Arsen, that wouldn't sound like a lot of fun to me either.

Think of another way.

Incorporate it into your everyday routine.

Buy a Russian<>English dictionary and label the furniture and stuff in your house. Get a book on Russian to learn a few simple verbs. Learn to say things like "Your keys are on the dresser", and "Please stop flipping the channels" in Russian.

Make a Russian list of the foods in the pantry and fridge. Then learn a few more verbs and start using it on Arsen. Once you can say "Please pass the potatoes" in Russian, you can start trying to make dinner a Russian-only time.

Have him say the name of a body part and then kiss it. - Gotta be more fun than 'lessons'.

Play "I Spy" in the car - in Russian.

I'm sure you can think of lots more.

is he aware that he can just wash that in the shower and then it would also be clean before he dries it? or don't they teach that in russia?

Just to throw in $.02 worth, I'm all for the pictoral reenactment of the shower scene, (minus the ass toweling of course). I believe it will help us all better understand the problem here.

I tried to tell him that- I even wiped my mouth with it after I brushed my teeth, to demonstrate, but I guess he just feels better using a separate towel on his ass.
