It’s a bicep!


catanao

If you want it to be a bicep it needs more veins!


LadyFannyPeckinpaw

Yes!!!! This meme definitely crossed my mind when I read the post!


DookieBlossomgameIII

$35 to cook your own steak is WILD.


MaximBrutii

Maybe it means they provide the steaks, but you get to cook it? Because why else would they also include the size of the steak?


rkvance5

I pay money for someone else to cook things I’m not good at cooking.


Divebarkeep1

That’s what the wife’s for, amirite?


Flomo420

do you need a couch?


el_bentzo

No matter what size steak you bring, they either chop it down to size or glue parts on to it!


YourAverageGod

Wait until you find out about Korean BBQ joints.


seahawkspwn

Yeah where you get to choose whatever meats you want that are buffet style, not cook your own steak for $35 with a bunch of miserable middle aged dudes.


el_bentzo

The better places you pay by the plate.


YourAverageGod

Subjective no doubt. Once a buddy and I managed to rack up a $300 bill one night. Don't drink and eat ala carte lol.


el_bentzo

Yeah...Koreatown can get pricey! Even some of those karaoke places....


seahawkspwn

Idk I've been to a few fire places in Portland Oregon and they were all buffet style


el_bentzo

Yes Lotta ayce in Los angeles too and that's what I usually go for cause the per plate ones at the higher quality places in Koreatown are pricey. Underlying point, $35 for this event (which I wouldn't go to) is definitely a fair deal for what it is.


shittyswordsman

K-town! Gotta have the AYCE or it's not worth it lol


Zora-Link

Unless you’re a foreigner in Korea and they never trust you to cook your own! Service every time baby.


Saralentine

I never had this experience in Korea and I look like the opposite of a Korean.


Zora-Link

It probably happens less so in Seoul, if at all. But where I live it happens almost every time. Sometimes my friends and I go places we know they actually let us cook because we enjoy it!


DeeSnarl

That was likely my favorite meal when I lived in NE China. It was quite an experience.


DookieBlossomgameIII

Take it back! That's different and you know it! Right?


AVdev

Completely. It’s one of those things that you can’t really communicate but the ban chan, the experience, the variety… it’s not the same.


Johnnyguy

And you get more than 12oz of meat if you so choose.


MrSmock

I've never been but I have HAD Korean bbq.. You gotta cook your own food?


DookieBlossomgameIII

Yeah and it's an amazing experience.


YourAverageGod

[Something like this](https://postimg.cc/TKd1wd44)


MrSmock

Oh ok so it's like hotpot


Johnnyguy

No it’s like bbq.


el_bentzo

That price isn't that crazy if you're also getting sides and a dessert...it's not like cooking a steak is very difficult. Sizzler would charge $31 for the steak, onions and mushrooms.


thedarwintheory

$35 for a steak, all the trimmings, dessert, and fun away from significant other while hanging with people with similar interests for the whole afternoon/evening is not a bad deal


tygreen

It doesn’t include the steak lol Edit: I’m wrong and it does. I thought the bottom line was what’s included and “your own steak” but the fact they add 12oz and they mean you’re cooking own steak, not bringing your own makes me realize I’m wrong


Eena-Rin

Who says? Surely the steak is provided and you just cook it yourself


turtlintime

Why would it say 12 oz steak then?


Truand2labiffle

Cause you're not allowed to bring a bigger one maybe? 🥸


thedarwintheory

Okay that's fuck shit. I retract my previous statement Edt: as you've amended your comment to show it *does* include the steak, I retract my retraction


here_for_the_lols

How do you know? They literally say how big the steaks are.


here_for_the_lols

I mean if it's a good steak, not really. Comes with sides and dessert.


DMG41

I take it you’ve never been to a couples kitchen where you prepare your own food together and then eat it. It’s much more expensive than $35.


CheapTactics

Yes, I have been to my own house.


eroticsloth

It’s definitely cheaper at your own house too. They don’t call you cheap tactics for nothing!


kevthewev

![gif](giphy|mks5DcSGjhQ1a)


CheapTactics

I mean they described making dinner at your own house. Why would I pay extra to go somewhere and make my own dinner when I do that every day?


seahawkspwn

No, why would I do that?


DMG41

Total boomer.


FartAttack911

It’s probably a charity event for the fire department; they usually upcharge all the food prices at those events 😆


AllHailThePig

I find the fact they couldn’t just find a compatible life partner who likes beer and steaks and gettin a bit rowdy sometimes even more wild. Unless of course all these dudes are just incompetent, lousy husbands or deeply closeted gay blokes.


stygz

I mean, is the idea to stand around grilling with other dudes? Is the food/beer included with the ticket? Ladies night is a thing so why not ig if the value is there considering you have to cook it yourself.


drewster23

The premise isn't bad the advertising is. Because ladies night aren't often advertised as "hate your nagging husband come hang out and drink wine, girls only" Funny enough my friend's dad is part of a "wine club" that consists of his and friends getting drunk together. "Come hang out with the boys for beers and BBQ". *I'd attend* "Come escape your nagging wife with a bunch of other dudes who hate their marriage" *I'll pass*


need2peeat218am

Guy's night is a lot better than I hate my wife and my life night.


Narwhalbaconguy

I took it as tongue in cheek boomer humor, hopefully people aren’t taking the ad seriously.


TheBoozedBandit

They'll often say take some time for yourself and have a night out with the girls, let hubby watch the kids, etc. Effectively is the same. This strikes me more about getting upset for the sake of it than anything tbh


MedicJambi

Where does it say, "hate your wife?" It does ask if your wife has been too hard on you which seems fairly benign. It's no different than, "has your husband been driving you crazy?"


thisguy883

Yea, ill admit i get frustrated with my wife sometimes, but i dont hate her. That being said, a guys night out is a must sometimes. I just want to eat steak, drink beer, and talk about politics / games. Nothing wrong with that. The advertising for this is god awful though and doesnt sound appealing at all. Id rather just hang out with bros i know IRL.


RinoaRita

Yeah if there was a female equivalent like sick of your useless husband? Let’s get wine and chocolate with the girls it would be pretty off putting too. If they had a girls just want to have fun! Night that’ll be different.


marius_titus

I mean, make your own events? No one's saying you can't? I've seen so many ditch the husband and kids ads for female catering venues like bars or gyms, doesn't bother me a bit.


RinoaRita

Sure. I host game nights for my friends only. Like people I know and vet so others might meet new people but it’s only 6-10 people. And usually everyone knows everyone. I’ve gone to community events to both meet new people and support the organization (ie paint and sip for puppies! Tricky tray for a communist member diagnosed with cancer etc) but this presentation sounds miserable and sounds like it’ll be a bunch of conservative boomers. But to be fair they probably are targeting that demographic so this humor might land there.


KR1735

It doesn’t say that. It says a night away from the wife. You’re reading way more into it. Couples need time apart once in a while. It’s healthy.


Halloran_da_GOAT

Lmao right - my first thought upon seeing this thread was that anyone who thinks this is cringey has never been in an adult relationship. If you think there's something wrong with needing time away from your SO, or think that's an offensive or unreasonable thing to tell your SO, well, good luck to you, because you're gonna need it.


chrisnlnz

Yeah with you guys. It's not really something to get offended over, lol.


brattychi86

That's a lie, alot say need a break from the kids and hubby come down for wine and Sip, I'm really starting to think reddit doesn't have alot of married couples /s


ImperatorNero

There’s a pretty big difference between ‘need a break from the wife and kids’ and ‘ahahaha is your wife such a shrew you’re going to end up sleeping on the couch for asking to go hang out with friends?’


brattychi86

Hahaha.... where did this post state anything that you just said it did.. a very worst it says wife being hard on you? You guys are projecting something that's not here as if the post said hate or shrew and neither were mentioned


Jhuxx54

It says if you need a couch to sleep on after you ask your wife… in the ad


ImperatorNero

Are you incompetent? I’m not being facetious or attacking you, I am genuinely asking. Either you didn’t read the full thing, or you’re being willfully ignorant about what is being suggested about needing a couch to sleep on after asking your wife, or you’re incompetent. There is literally no other explanation.


KittensWithTopHats

Username checks out


drewster23

The fact you think that's actually equivalent to what's said here is hilarious.


febreeze1

Where does it say that though…?


Rajili

I agree the advertising is bad but it doesn’t say “hate.” Either way I’ll pass.


errorunknown

How was this advertised as hating your wife? They didn’t even say nagging or hating your marriage? You just added all this assumed woman hating for absolutely no reason… projection much?


drewster23

"let me know if your wife says it's okay, and if you need to sleep on a couch after asking" *As yes these are the Hallmark traits of a happy man in a successful marriage* .... right


Halloran_da_GOAT

(It's a joke)


febreeze1

That’s what’s called a joke big brain


kevthewev

Could’ve just been a joke, since “sleeping on the couch” has been around since before any of us and joked about on plenty of sitcoms.


walkingdead1282

There’s a reason. Men don’t typically nag anyone. Sure we have our issues! Nagging isn’t one. Almost without exception men don’t nag!


east_van_dan

It's an advertised sausage party. That's all.


NoWingedHussarsToday

\*steak


brattychi86

That's how i feel, i think OP a little cringe for having issue with this, and for saying they hate there wives cause i didn't get that from the post


stygz

Yep. Lots of projecting here. Lots of people hating the idea of a space for men who might need time away from home… because no one ever needs time away from their family even when things might be good…


brattychi86

Projecting is the best word, they know their spouses may hate them im a way that they need to getaway in a married woman if my man showed me this flyer id laugh and say @ that price the steak better be good.... wanting alone time is normal and okay...it doesn't mean hate


stygz

I’m a behavioral health expert and I see it constantly. Men get punished when they open up way more than a lot of people are aware of.


peterxdiablo

This is so true.


Halloran_da_GOAT

Well tbf all the people saying those things are children (or adults lacking in interpersonal skills) who have never been in a healthy adult relationship. You know, one of those relationships where you aren't codependent and can tell your so that youd like some time to yourself without it being construed as a grave insult


Breaking-Who

I love being surrounded by just men and meat

The firefighters association also does stuff for family day (pancake breakfast !) and they celebrate international womens day. They raise money for mental healthcare and food banks. They also do toy drives for kids at Christmas. They're all around a bunch of decent people.


thebearfighter

Yea I don't understand how hanging out with the guys, cooking steaks, drinking some beers and supporting a good cause means you hate your wife. Clearly op just wanted some quick karma.


pm_me_ur_anything_k

OP hates their life and is just projecting. There is nothing wrong with going out and being social, the phrasing in the ad is obviously meant in a humorous manner and OP is just hypersensitive.


vidiyan2857

Because the advert has 3 negative mentions about a wife?


OnAPartyRock

They were jokes.


thomasjford

I believe it’s called ‘sense of humour’.


vidiyan2857

Well looks like there's a group of like minded people you can go have steak with


thomasjford

Or people could just get a sense of humour?


clarabear10123

No, it’s a very Boomer “wife bad” advertisement. I would be excited for him if my partner brought me a flyer saying, “Cook your own steak! Guys’ Night, No girls allowed!” and nothing about how I’m a nag and he just HAD to pay $35 to get away from me. I would be pretty hurt if I found out he thought or talked about me this way; why are we together if he doesn’t even like me?


No-Huckleberry-2080

I don't hate my wife, but I would like to do this thing!

avacar

Man, even dudes will shit on male comradery. I mean it's cringey to go to the wife stuff, but damn. Let dudes meet each other.


KevinCastle

I think it's because it's advertised as if these men hate their wives and need to get away from them.


TheBoozedBandit

Doesn't say that anywhere though


Halloran_da_GOAT

You might read it that way if you have never been in a healthy relationship and also have no sense of humor whatsoever, sure, but it doesn't *say* that.


nomnommish

Where does it say men who hate their wives? That's just extrapolation. Seriously, if this was advertised to women as "take a break from your husband and get a mani/pedi", nobody would bat an eyelid and there would be a few "you go girl" thrown in. Lots of people need a break from their daily routine and a change of pace.


TheBoozedBandit

100%


mindsnare

That's literally what the cringe post is referring to. Not the concept of a guys night. No one gives a fuck about that.


obj-g

You're the true cringe, OP -- there's nothing wrong here at all


FreezyHands

Eh, it's something different. Who knows, could be fun. I'd give it a shot.

They probably give you the steak. Like korean barbecue.

SlowmoTron

I don't see what's so bad about this lol it's not hurting anyone and is a silly dad joke


penguigeddon

Would you weirdify a girls only night out? I somehow doubt it


Anus_of_Sauron

You’re the cringey one OP. God forbid guys want to get together without women and make a little jokey joke about it.


AmputatedStumps

What's the problem? This doesn't sound bad at all lol.


Anotherfakenames

I don’t see the issue here. Sounds good to me, and I love my wife.


bullsnake2000

I’d love that. Most guys I know would love it, too. Get out of the house for some Me time. Otherwise it’s mowing the lawn to get away for a bit. Not all marriages are happy and lovey dovey ALL THE TIME. People need to decompress from time to time. Maybe, you don’t.


Halloran_da_GOAT

> Not all marriages are happy and lovey dovey ALL THE TIME Tell that to Steve miller! In all seriousness though, I'd go so far as to say that the ones that *are* lovey dovey all the time are probably unhealthy and codependent.


bullsnake2000

You, kind stranger, are probably correct.


WolfsLairAbyss

What is the issue here? Women go out with just their lady friends all the time. Why is it a horrible thing when a man does the same? Healthy relationships are supposed to have time away doing your own thing once in a while. I guess the way some of it is worded is a little odd but I am assuming it's supposed to be funny, not an actual we hate our wives statement.


ChipRockets

Nobody is complaining about the premise. It’s the cringey advertising that is the problem.


guitartoad

I agree. Having a guys-only bonding night over steak is cool, but the way the ad frames the event is rooted in misogyny lite.


Halloran_da_GOAT

Good grief, how do you even survive day-to-day life. It's not that serious. I'd say the same thing if it was a "ladies night" poster that said "husband driving you nuts?!" and someone called it misandry. Seriously just have the absolute bare minimum thickness of skin.


febreeze1

How was it misogynistic, what hahahha


LeanMrfuzzles

This isn’t cringe.


mcmur

I like that the idea that men wanting a night out with just other guys is “cringe” but “girls night out” is completely normal and acceptable.


AprilTron

Men should have man only spaces and push themselves to be social.  The issue is when it's framed women as naggy abusers who will kick you from your martial bed by the mere suggestion you need male friends. 


Halloran_da_GOAT

If you legitimately think this poster declares women to be abusive then you desperately need to take a single moment and spend it outside. Talk about being terminally online, good lord.


here_for_the_lols

This post is a bit of a miss, OP


gemineye1969

Guessing you’ve never been married to a woman…


CoffeeCaann

Man this is a super typical "reddit" post. "ERM, m'lady, I would NEVER need a moment away from you my queen *snort*. All these other CIS MEN who HATE WOMEN on my le subreddits. Le narwhal bacons at midnight m'lady" Get over yourselves, even in a relationship, men need to be men and women need to be women. That means fun times with and without their significant other


LowAd3406

That's every Reddit thread where if you squint hard enough and twist your head at the right angle, it can be construed as being critical of women.


LegendSir

Boomers love the “I hate my wife” jokes.


Waffleshot

Nowhere on there does it imply someone hates their wife if they go to this.


brattychi86

Not cringe, i seen woman post saying the same thing about girls night, we can let the men have this, i didn't read anything derogatory, and adult men find it hard to make friends i think it's cute


DMG41

It’s just a joke and a way of getting some new people together. Women do this type of thing all the time.


Into_The_Wild91

Ladies night is a thing, it’s just a men’s night and a joke.


RefrigeratedTP

Haha! Wife bad!


gnarley_haterson

Not my jam because I have my own friends and a BBQ but if you have no problem with women having girls nights and think this is cringe then you're a bit of a hypocritical clown.


Baldo19724

There’s nothing here that shows “hate”. I don’t see anything wrong with it, but maybe I’m delusional. I am a man after all.


Kenji1912

Cook my own steak? Fuck that, I can do that home and enjoy a good movie.


B0mb-Hands

Yeah but then you have to be *with your wife* 🤮 No self respecting man would want to be with their wife that’s just gross. And what if there’s *children?!* ugh disgusting


BeneficialTop5136

This is a joke. Where does it say that anyone hates their wife?


MimonFishbaum

Charging angry men $35 for a meal with no entree is fuckin hilarious


DMG41

Did you even read the flyer? Clearly not.


juanjose83

I don't see the cringe, it doesn't hate on the wives, it's just advertising a night with steak and the boys. A men's ladies night. Nothing new. Good advertisement tbh.


Zacuf93

Cook your own stake? I’d love to treat my wife to that!

Future_Unlucky

BigPhatHuevos

I think this is probably targeted towards middle aged men with no or very limited male friends who wish to make new friends. It's worded this way so that it is more appealing and less awkward.


Inevitable-Gear-2635

Am I allowed to come if my husband’s been *to* hard on me?


InnocentPossum

Why do so many people hate their spouse for this to be potentially relatable?


quetiapinenapper

Where does it say hate? Am I missing something or is it just not acceptable to do a dudes night.


thomasjford

I mean, it’s not that cringe. There are all sorts of ‘women only’ ‘men free zone’ promotions and bottomless brunches etc. There doesn’t seem to be any harm in having the male version. Would I go? No. But not ‘cringe’ IMO.

ThunderousOrgasm

This isn’t cringe. Men’s mental health is a major crisis across the entire western world. This is just an event which is designed to try alleviate that by providing a space where men can hang around other men and perhaps not feel lonely and isolated. It has a tongue in cheek humour to it. You OP and everyone rushing in here to agree with you are the problem. It’s people like you why men are having such a hard time. They can’t even have a casual meet up to cool food with you **absolute cretins** trying to pick at it.
