10. He thinks any post that mentions “penis” is funny.
9. He gets mad that you don’t think all of his ideas are post-worthy.
8. He doesn’t read your blog.
7. When you ask him why he doesn’t read your blog he says, “I already know what you think”.
6. Sometimes his ideas are actually good like “Bobby Brown: The Musical” and then for weeks he won’t stop telling you what a good blogger he would make.
5. You posted a video that he suggested once and it was the only post you didn’t get one single comment on because the video was far too long for anyone to actually watch.
4. He doesn’t laugh when you read him some of your funniest posts.
3. He doesn’t cry when you read him some of your saddest posts. (That’s probably a good thing, but still you want a reaction.)
2. He doesn’t even know they are called “posts”.
And the #1 reason why you shouldn’t let you husband choose your blog topics…
You will get sick of hearing him say, “You should blog that!”
I don’t encourage my husband to read my blog, not that I could stop him if he wanted to, but I doubt that he does. I’ve been encouraging him to start his own blog, though.
Ah, I’m glad I don’t have that problem. Too funny though.
This is EXACTLY why I won’t let me husband post or talk about blogging.
But Bobby Brown, the musical? THAT IS AWESOME! Would it include references to his penis, because then you’ve really got something!
This list could have come from my house. Especially the part where he all bossily says, “You should blog that!” while I roll my eyes.
Boy there is truth i this post, made me laugh and think of my hubby…to him this is my thing like his sports is his….hope you are feeeling well and little baby is doing fine. hugs to you
Well, penis IS a funny word!
I saved Life with Kaishon to Gary’s phone and he has never gone there even one. He doesn’t understand the thrill of blogging : )
I feel like your husband has more chance of grasping the concept soon! Maybe you should let him guest post once a week! : )
Ha ha! That made me laugh. I must say that I usually giggle when someone mentions the word penis because I have the humor of a 4th grade boy! 🙂
Hope all is well with the fam!
Yep, I’d say those are 10 good reasons! 😀 At least he has an understanding of the whole blogging thing. I’m sure my husband doesn’t get it at all. …Which begs the question actually: What percentage of bloggers are women and what percentage men?
I will never let my husband choose my topic again, LOL :), kidding my husband doesn’t like to read my blog, but he doesn’t like to read some posts. Still he doesn’t believe in blogging (just because his didn’t pick up when he tried, poor angel :).
Holy crap, this is perfect! My husband and I go through the exact same thing. He’s super supportive and reads it often, but oh….it can be so funny some times.
Best,
Tina
p.s. hope all is well with the little ones?
My husband doesn’t even read my blog, or at least I don’t think he does…. hmmm….
I am soooo with you on this. My hubby is always saying, “here’s some blog fodder for you.” Occasionally he does give a suggestion I use, but most of the time, I just roll my eyes! And he emails me the corniest jokes for my Saturday Silliness. But, hey, at least he’s supportive and not resentful of the time I spend on line. I guess.
i have to chuckle!!!! many of those are so true, and i actually started my hubby’s blog just so that i was not the only person listening to his running commentary on life!! but alas, he never writes 🙁 great post mami!!!
I’m glad Cheese Boy noticed that you didn’t make this very generic. I have similar issues with my wife because she is not a blogger and I believe has only read my blog a few times. I learned not to talk much about the blog with her. It’s really similar to one partner having a hobby and the other not being at all interested.
Oh body parts are funny, especially some of the names they get.
BTW – tech question – did you notice a problem with DISQUS this morning? I did.
I’ve tried leaving a comment on your SIMC post and haven’t been able to.
UnknownMami
Thanks for letting me know if just to let me know it’s not just me. This
there was a problem just opening DISQUS comments on some of the blogs such
as yours that use it. I closed and reopened my firefox browser and that
seem to clear the problem. Now just a few minutes ago I had a problem
leaving a reply to a comment.
Do you use firefox? Also I’m on a Mac.
well thanks and send a compliant to DISQUS if you have the time. I send one
and have not heard back yet.
I just tried to reply to a comment here and got “system error”
Now I came back and it went through – weird
just got a quick reply back from DISQUS saying the problem was fixed and sorry.
I started my blog because my husband cries that I talk too much. So now I tell my friends who live inside my computer and they like it when I talk to them.
My husband is CONSTANTLY giving me “ideas” to post on. And so far? Not one has made it to the blog. WEIRD? No.
Gee you should give him a little slack. At least he is showing interest.
My only argument with this post…in my house…#10 would be number ! LOL
“You should Blog that!” LOL. *sigh* We have that in our house too.
Thanks for the laugh!
Haha, this made me laugh out loud! Love it.
Awesome list! I think if I posted some videos my husband watches, it would scare away the few readers I have! Who wants to learn Jiu Jitsu techniques anyway! LOL! I don’t even know if my husband reads my blog. I don’t tell him he can’t but he’s probably the one going “I already know it all”…
Great list!
My husband doesn’t read my blog either and that is just FINE with me. I talk to him about my posts and about all of my bloggy friends, and he either listens or pretends to, whatever. It works for us.
Your husband needs to start his own blog!
haha!! to funny!
Brilliant!
great post! my reason is that my husband simply doesn’t have time to get involved and to be honest, I want to keep my blog – mine. 🙂 He checks it out from time to time and that’s it. thanks for following!
Too funny! My hubby tries the same….I shut him down too!
Haha, top ten reasons not to tell your hubby about your blog.
Insert my wife into this post, and it’s the same for me.
LOL! My husband has just come into the office with yet another idea for a post for me to blog about…
Blogs are wasted on husbands!
Love your funny reasons!!
OMG yes to all of them! My husband will even do things in order for me to have a blog topic…I’m not ashamed to admit that if I see gold in it, I’ll do it!
However, I have to agree with your husband: any post with the word ‘penis’ does make me giggle. I’m still immature like that.
I’m ganna show this to Hubs!
I find I don’t even talk about my posts much anymore with my husband. He use to read but not much anymore.
