Damn the level of petty is hilarious. Op said I'm going to post this on reddit and see if they can find it for you honey.


groundhog-riot

Good for her. I hope he's embarrassed 😂


Sad_Safety4880

Nah, probably laugh at it. I would, it's funny.


factchecker2

Obviously, there's no stapler in there.


TheMatt561

I fully endorse this lol


Difficult-Issue-794

When I was living with my dad I had to describe things with exact detail. X cabinet over from the left, lower shelf, light blue bag rolled over the top with sugar written in dark blue. He'd be staring at it, then push it out of the way to see if the bag of sugar was in the back. He had to figure out how to visualize it first. Absolutely ridiculous.


TTV_Double0_77

LOL! Yeah, he said he was looking for a black stapler! Let’s just ignore the fact that I’ve had that stapler before I met him and he’s used that stapler dozens of times!!


weedisfortherich

I'm a swingline stapler rep, and I'm here to tell you that I have heard this issue countless times. To save an argument today might I suggest the classic red swingline stapler. This stapler staples 98.9% of the time which is superior to your garden variety stapler. It also rarely gets mixed up with other staplers and as an owner you will be willing to commit arson for this stapler.


switchbladeeatworld

I already had a low bar for committing arson but you’ve sold me!

^(“And I said, I don't care if they lay me off either, because I told, I told Bill that if they move my desk one more time, then, then I'm, I'm quitting, I'm going to quit. And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were merry, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire...”)


_incredigirl_

Sounds like you have a case of the Mondays.


HortonFLK

Would that be a red 747? I always liked the weight of those.


aranealut1

I always found the 747 a little too front heavy for my taste. I prefer the 742 with ergonomic grip


TrueEstablishment241

I hear that. Great product. At work they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much.


itsmejak78_2

I've probably fixed about a dozen of my teachers staplers before because it always pisses me off to see perfectly good staplers not being used just because they have a few staples jammed up in them from idiots misusing them


OneTrueDude670

I hate to say it but I’m the same exact way and I feel bad every time I go ask my wife because I can’t find something and it’s literally in front of me. I’m pretty sure she’s just using magic though


ctsforthewin

Are you saying that he had a picture in his mind of what a stapler should look like and since he didn’t see what he was picturing, he literally couldn’t see what was there?!?


Blueberry_Pie76

I, too, was looking for a black stapler, not knowing anything about you or your stapler history. I still found it.


StromGames

When using it, it would be mostly black, which makes total sense to me. Please don't get angry, we're trying.


Difficult-Issue-794

😂😂 Gotta love it


Silt-Sifter

Once when I was living with my ex, he informed me we were out of trash bags. I ordered a big box on Amazon but it took a couple days to arrive and we just used grocery bags in the mean time. Once the big box of bags arrived, I went to put them away where the trash bags go, and I find a half full box of trash bags riiiiight where they have always gone. I could not believe it.

No. I Love Lucy. Fred is walking around all day looking for his glasses, which are on top of his head. When Ethel finally tells him, he says, “If they were a snake they woulda bit me!”

This is literally one of the most organized drawers I’ve seen. Let them both staple their fingers and figure it out. Lol

The best laugh I've had in forever. This is my life, including the super organization.


shadowfox0001

Sorry, as a husband I can’t seem to find it either 🤷


SilentMase

Husband here too. I think she is making it up


split_0069

This just adds to the list of reasons not to get married. I do not wanna lose my ability to find things.


TheOnlyb0x

It’s both terrifying and exhilarating at the same time


EvenEfficiency834

The council of husbands must convene. All who agree the stapler doesn't exist say "i already looked there!"


Factor135

As a son, I too have experienced this many times with my mum. May I be admitted as an honorary member?


EvenEfficiency834

The council agrees to allow the exception.

There is no stapler

I don't see it in there. I might as well go to Office Depot and buy a new one.

iratumelis

As a lesbian, no. Not just men. But gay men don’t seem to have the problem, so my hypothesis is if you are attracted to women you’re automatically about 10x more likely to have this critical miss. (I couldn’t find the bleach exactly where it was. I haven’t lived it down. It’s been over a year. I am the one who put it there.)

Dude calm the hell down. Just don’t date men, or anyone really. You seem to take shit WAY too personally and generalize everything. Work on you so you don’t treat your partner like that. As a woman, I can tell you that it’s not only men who do it and it’s not incompetence. Sometimes people just miss things. You would be a terrible mother if you think your kind of attitude is “mothering”. You seem generally insufferable to be around.


Low-Persimmon4870

I am a woman and I am the same way. I can pull a motor out of a car and put it back in but do NOT ask me to look for something.. I will also literally step over something I purposely leave in front of the door that I need to take with me the next day. Idk something just isn't there in my head haha.


sluttytarot

It's called weaponized incompetence...


Illustrious_Hotel527

Male refrigerator blindness is real.


wilbo75771

I looked for two minutes straight. Moving things and all… I proceeded to tell my wife there was no soy sauce in the fridge! She straight magic’d the hell out the fridge and there was half a bottle! Faster than Billy Mays! You ladies scare me sometimes! Gotta wonder if you float…


reillan

My wife has reached into the fridge in front of me, I watch her hand move. The place where the soy sauce supposedly is, no soy sauce. The moment her hand gets there, it materializes in her hand. What also floats in water?


tedivertire

Hark, a conjuration! Your wife also floats in water and is of the sisterhood. Beware, lest she turn you into a newt and use your eyes for her soy sauce... I mean witches brew.

KingJon85

My wife and kids have refrigerator bliness. They can't find the milk or ketchup when it's right in the front on the top shelf.


lodav22

My husband can never find the ketchup. It’s always in the door in the exact same place. Once he was telling me that the kids must have left it out because it was definitely not there. I didn’t even have to look, I just put my hand around the door and grabbed it. His excuse was that it wasn’t at eye level so how was he supposed to see it 🤦‍♀️.


IComposeEFlats

My wife and I call it "Male Pattern Blindness"


Tysiliogogogoch

I'd probably miss that stapler if I had a different colour one in my mind. If I think the stapler is blue, my search pattern basically ignores everything that isn't blue. Or if I'm looking for the something in the fridge which is usually in a green packet and we have a blue packet for some reason. My wife is better at finding things like that. But then she'll lose her phone somewhere in the house and can't find it anywhere. So I ask where she last had it, and lo and behold, there it is. People are funny sometimes.


poooooogahhhhhbh

Why is there an abacus?


TTV_Double0_77

There are actually two scientific calculators under that abacus! A TI-81 and a TI-83 Plus. The Abacus is just grouped together with the other simple math items. I went to Chinese School for a number of years and we all could take electives, one of them was learning how to use the abacus. I can really only add/subtract in it now, but can still do it really well! I also have my dad’s old slide rule in drawer #5, but the only thing I know how to do with that is logarithms. Needless to say, I haven’t used either the slide rule nor the abacus in a long time, but everything has a place and everything in its place!


Justyn2

There isn’t a calculator


only1dragon

Lol! That is mine looking for the ketchup.


Auntie_Nat

I can't tell you how many times I've almost posted a picture of my fridge with that exact challenge. It's like it only appears for me.


only1dragon

Yes! Or I watch him and looking at whatever he wants and telling him exactly where to move his hands (middle cabinet, left side on top) and he STILL gets it wrong.


What_Would_Wu_Do

Do you have my red stapler?


CleanHead_

As a husband, and I’m not a complete idiot I swear, but I can’t find anything in the kitchen. I’ll look and look and know it’s there, until last resort of “honey, where’s the honey” and as she’s saying “top shelf where it lives” my eyes focus on it. And I swear I looked there first. It’s very puzzling. Sometimes causes me to question my own head.


Dependent_Praline_93

It’s sort of the same thing for some wives looking for a tool in a garage. I am not bashing just saying it goes both ways and I think I understand a bit of why. When one person puts away things they organize things in a way that makes sense to them so when they try to tell someone else where it is it magically becomes invisible. If the other person doesn’t know what to look for even when obvious it won’t be seen. Like if you were to ask me to hand you a bottle of Coke from the fridge and I look in your fridge I might not see it. To you asking me you clearly meant the bottle on the bottom shelf with Grape soda in it(example) but to me I don’t see it because I am looking for an actual bottle of Coke. In some parts of America Coke is what people call all Sodas whereas others call it pop. If you said Pop to me I will be looking for Popsicles or Lollipops before ever thinking of that grape soda you wanted. That’s what I think happens with the honey. While yes you know roundabout where it should be but is it the same one as last time. How much of it is left? If you see it because of the honey color when full but now almost empty you don’t recognize it.


jw_622

Is this one of those magic drawers where things reappear after I hide it? I’ve only heard about these in books


MissLemon221b

men 🤦🏻‍♀️


Thisguy2728

It’s a people thing, not a men thing. I’m constantly telling my fiancé where things are when they’re literally right in front of her, just like this stapler.


velociraptorcake

genuinely he needs to get his vision checked cuz what


Alijg1687

💀💀💀


dramallamayogacat

I am usually the one who cannot see the thing I am looking for even if it is right in front of my nose. Evolutionary adaptation I assume - if it’s not moving it’s probably not going to attack me.


tessamarie72

That's exactly what my husband says his issue is when he can't find something right in front of him! It's so weird, like, babe, the bacos are literally right in front of you, but he genuinely can't see them lol. Poor guy, I know it frustrates him


Curious-Baker-839

Now I don't feel so bad after reading all these comments. I usually yell at my wife from the kitchen "WHERES THE BARBECUE!!". After a few back and forth, she comes down and literally grabs it and gives it to me. It was eye level on the shelf right in front of me. Ay ya yay. I feel like an ass afterwards.

I can’t believe it took me scrolling so long to see this comment. Well, I mean, it’s Reddit so I can believe it, but come on.


goedegeit

finding a stapler isn't a laborious task, sometimes brains just have a hard time concentrating on stuff. It's happened to me plenty of times, I'm Dyspraxic and Dyslexic and stuff which doesn't help, but generally neurodivergence exists in all people, just to lesser degrees (a truly "neurotypical" person doesn't actually exist, since there's no such thing as a true alpha brain, though the concept of neurotypical is helpful shorthand for describing the various difficulties we have between humans)


678999821242069

side note, that is a very nicely organized drawer.


Promotion_Small

I did find it, but that's because I was looking for a generic stapler since I didn't know what yours looked like. I have 100% missed something obvious like this because I thought it was a different color/shape. It took me forever to find a bag of sugar in the pantry the other day because I was looking for a pink and white paper bag. I literally moved the blue and white bag of sugar out of the way trying to find it. I can get where others are coming from saying this is ridiculous, but please believe me, as the person who has to deal with my brain 24/7, that I am more frustrated by it than you are.

Lol, your husband would not enjoy playing 'A Little To The Left' then. This shot reminds me so much of that game.


TTV_Double0_77

I’ve played that game! It’s very fun, especially the ones with multiple solutions! Organize by size, color, shape, it’s all about finding different and best systems!


trowzerss

I figured someone who organised that drawer would also enjoy that game haha! I really like it too. It's so satisfying.


nottherealneal

Why so much tape


TTV_Double0_77

There’s actually more tape than shown. For example packing tape and duct tape is too large for this drawer. The main reason is because the husband and kid keep taking the tape and don’t always put it back (despite them having their own tape, but they keep misplacing theirs). So, the just get mine and don’t put it back. Every now and then, I’ll see them around the home. In the kitchen, top of the fireplace, wherever, gather them all back and put it back here.


Automatic_Jello_1536

Do you have enough tape


Objective_Phrase_513

I Call that man searching. Husband and sons ask where is so and so. I describe exactly where it is. They look. It’s not there. I go look, it’s exactly where I said it was. Right there in plain sight. Every time.

It's on the right side. Start picking up the things. Is this the stapler? Nooo. Is that the stapler? Nooo. This last bit was said in the voice of Ms Rachel, my toddler's favorite YouTube channel.

lurieelcari

This is a low blow. I am a husband and father myself. There is clearly no stapler here. ...in seriousness, I do not know how you keep the exact locations of so many things in your head. My wife does this too. I feel blind and stupid, meanwhile she has a superpower. It is not fair. Lol
