The Way This Wife Reacted To Finding Messages From Another Woman On A Husband’s Phone Becomes A Meme
We've all been the person in a social setting staring blankly because we didn't get the inside joke, well, the latest viral meme "James Barrett's wife" kind of feels like that - until you read the backstory.
It all started with a Facebook Messanger screengrab posted by Daniella Gay, in which she received an innocent enough question from a James Barret, "What are your plans this evening." Well like most people do at 4 am on a Friday night she wrote back, "Draw vegetables." But alas! Gay had been tricked and unintentionally caught the bait of Barrett's jealous wife who wrote: " “Hey. Just to let u know. Im james barretts wife. Fuck off.” She posted the bizarre try to stop a cheating husband and from there, “Noticing it got a lot of traction, I made a bunch of funny memes about the scenario” she told the Daily Dot. Things took off from there and overnight she had 2,000 shares and thousands of likes on the memes.
But who is James Barrett? The vegetable artist explained that he was a random guy who had probably found her through a mutual friend. According to Gay, these unsolicited messages are quite common, and she responds to many of them.
It's clear this meme isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Gay even created a Facebook meme group called, "artisan vegetable enthusiasts," where people can share more James Barrett's wife memes and vegetables.

It is tempting to think the wife is overreacting. But I dont think we see the whole picture here(pun intended) 🙂 It only a few lines from a conversation, that might have been a whole lot juicier before the veggie drawing. On the other hand, she did snoop in James phone, probably without permission... Wonder if James also was told to **** off?
"I just want him to make love to me like he did when we were in our 20's... but those damn vegetable drawings take up all of his free time."
Quite possibly the dumbest thing to be turned into a meme. It's not even funny.
I feel we we need to see the drawings before we 100% judge the artist...
I think the lack of context makes this so much better. Not sure why, but this actually cracked me up.
Actually I draw vegetables for living. I am an illustrator of food labels. Felt strange now...
...I am thoroughly confused by what's going on here. The internet is a truly strange place
I could come up with comedy gold and it gets barely liked by 10 people and they make a stupid story about vegetable artists and it's viral? are people really that bored?
So... The wife is sending messages to random woman through her husbands account and then calls them out if they dare to respond on the message? What a lovely she must be, if her husband can't even have a conversation with a person who happens to be female.
This was actually my 15 year old daughter!!! Lmao I have no idea how this blew up so big!
So... James Barrett is the cad here or did vegetable drawer start it? I'm confused here. The explanation didn't do a good job
Where is the context? Bored Panda do you have your kids write these pieces sometimes? Be honest
Either Barrett's wife is In-sane..or there is more to the texting exchange than what is posted here. Either way..sounds like Barrett's wife obviously has a problem with him more than anyone else. She certainly doesn't seem to trust him.
How hard is it to let someone know you want to be with other people? To let them move on with their lives? Cheating is never OK. Get a backbone. Have some respect.
