102 Times Men Did Something So Baffling Women Had To Ask, “What Were You Thinking?”
Some men truly seem to believe that the world revolves around them. These "God's gifts to women" exist in a golden bubble, where household chores, common courtesy, and even common sense don't apply to them.
There are grown men who are able to hold down a job, drive a pick-up truck through peak-hour traffic, operate heavy machinery and figure out complex tech... Yet they have no idea how to load a dishwasher, sort a pile of laundry, say "please" and "thank you," or treat people with respect.
From weaponized incompetence, to partners expecting praise for doing the bare minimum, and entitled first dates, women have been sharing how certain men have been making their lives a living hell. Bored Panda has compiled a list of some of the most infuriating screenshots, posts and pics that might serve as the perfect motivation for a women-only, remote island nation.

This Is Not What I Sent My Husband To The Store For
Sent my husband to the store for paper towels and a few other items. Comes back with pie and only pie. I ain’t too mad about it, because yeah, I’m gonna eat some pie, but it sure would be nice to have some paper towels to wipe my mouth with afterwards.
Alisha Natzel 5 days ago
Like walking into another room. He walked into the store and forgot, so he bought pie because at least there will not be a fight. There will be messes but that can wait till tomorrow. I respect this.

If Equality Starts At Home, Maybe You Could Actually Help Your Wife With The Chores And The Baby Too
LuckyL 5 days ago
I don't get this - he walked in, so he was away while the house turned into a mess. He says "SHE felt like she needed to do these things" not that he expects her to do it. And that he's proud of her for taking time for herself while the baby sleeps. Maybe the next thing he did was clean up while she continued to work out. Who knows.

Husband Leaves Trash To Be Washed?
The trash can is right next to the sink…
LakotaWolf (she/her) 5 days ago
I'd actually wash them (including the paper plate) and then hand them back to him, dripping and soggy, and say "Here's the dish and bottle you wanted me to wash... that's what you wanted, right? Since you left them on the sink and didn't throw them in the trash." XD

My Husband Threw Away All My Plastic And Silicone Cooking Utensils And Replaced Them With 5 Sets Of Wooden Salad Tossers
Kristiina Männiste 5 days ago
In his defence, the spatula shaped ones are actual cooking utensils. But In my book it would count as him saying "Honey, I will do the cooking from now on!" Because - he bought the utensils, they are his tools for his work, it would be rude of me to take this from him.

My Husband Leaves Gunk In Sponges/Scrubbers After Washing Dishes
It used to be this and leaving the sopping wet sponges at the front of the sink which would drip down the cabinets onto the floor. So at least he's halfway there?
LakotaWolf (she/her) 5 days ago
Oooh, I cannot STAND when my scrubbies/sponges have bits of food/whatever in them after I wash dishes/pots/pans XD The last thing I "wash" is the scrubber/sponge!

Stop buying the Jam and if he buys new, hide it so it can't be opened. This would make me crazy.

My Husband Never Empties The Vacuum After Using It. He Let's It Build Up Until It's So Full It Stops Working Properly To Empty It
Despite me telling my husband every single time he uses the vacuum to empty it after every use, he STILL doesn't empty it until til it stops working properly. It's a small stick vacuum, so it's not like it's a daunting task ....

Husband Makes Extra Effort To Be Lazy!
I did a bunch of laundry, and carried it up from the basement. I left both baskets at the bottom of the stairs for us to carry up on our way to bed.
Hubby went to bed. He walked around BOTH baskets without moving either of them. (We're pretty nocturnal, so he went to bed about an hour ago, and I'm going up now.
Kristiina Männiste 5 days ago
I would take my stuff out and then bring the baskets back to laundry room and put them back into the machine, on a long cycle. He obviously doesent need them yet. He will bring them up when he needs the items.

If these are two separate replies it's odd they would start the same way...unless she has something in her Bio about looking for a Latino. I'm not saying the response is appropriate, just that its odd multiple people would respond that exact way/with the phrasing if that is the case.

Weaponized Incompetence
Gunný Petersen 4 days ago
Me and my ex got us new kitchen cabinets where every cabinet was replaced by a new idendical cabinet and I put everything that was in said cabinets in the same place as before but that confused him so unbelievably much which I didn't understand because everything was in the same place as before so I asked him if he wanted me to put post it notes on the cabinets with everything in them marked and he actually said that it was a fantastic idea. Now he would know where everything was in the stupid cabinets. Fu$%ing dumb a@#. As I said. Hes an EX for a good reason.

Whom I love so much drives me insane with the trash bin. I appreciate him taking the garbage, but he never puts the bag in when he does. It isn't garbage day, so I wasn't anticipating the empty bin and tossed coffee grounds in before noticing. Yes, I've talked to him about it. Yes, we both deal with the garbage. He does so much for the home, he just tends to not finish this particular job. I have resigned myself to living with this one character flaw until I d**.
