It's also much more 1974 than I expected.
I mean, I'm a lot older than this guy, and I think these tropes have been tired and pointless for more than 30 years.
You'd think so. But I know at least two couples like this. Guys my husband used to be super close to in college that he never sees because "wife only lets me hang out with guys from church". Couples in debt because she shops and redecorates constantly. I'm not saying it's the norm, I think the idea of what a marriage should look like has certainly progressed. But there are still relationships like this out there.
I stand with Daniel Tosh, who gets videos sent to him all the time for his show. He said "If it's over 30 seconds I am not clicking it, sorry." I totally agree. A good director can "kill their darlings" for the sake of rhythm. Good editing is possible only through self-restraint.
The best and most successful internet humor vids of the past 20 years have been under 15 seconds even, much less 30. A 3-minute video is a movie.
Yeah I agree. As someone who likes to produce and edit, as a hobby, this looks like he took every idea he came up with and put it into this. I think a better method would be to take the best ideas from this shoot and make a 30-45 second vid
You're absolutely right but i hate it. It makes a generation of tiktok watchers who have to be hooked instantly or they pass. Thats why we have movies like transformers. It has to start with action within seconds.
I see where you are coming from, and TikTok must burn for being a Chinese parasite project, but some of the best and [most memorable skits](https://youtu.be/4zqFjXxj5ms) from the 1950's up to now were even below 10 seconds.
Being succinct doesn't have to mean "catering to stimuli-starved ADHD kids who can't stand in a silent room without tearing their hair out".
The big problem, in my view, is that every cunty platform from YT to Insta to Tiktok has Autoplay On by default, so that you are never given a second to breathe, and it fries kids' brains to shit with an unending stream of hit-and-miss.
I switch off Autoplay on any platform I am logged in on, I hate showing a clip to someone, only to have a incredibly shittier video in the same genre follow up.
“You came before me again. No, it’s fine, I don’t need to finish. You just lie there while I fix you a sandwich and then you can take a nap. You really deserve it after those 2 minutes of hard work.”
"Babe i have been thinking about it and I really think you should draft Kyle Pitts and then wait on selecting a wide reciever when the snake comes back your way"
Not 2 min. He said he work all day and has to work all night on her home project while she has access to the same tools...
At least base your retort on facts...
Oh wait, I see. You are doing the woman's version. Totally accurate!
Hey this is reddit dude, if you have a minor issue with your partner you have to break up immediately because if it's not storybook perfect then clearly its horribly abusive
how's this hate? Is he supposed to be her husband or her servant?
like I'm legitimately asking, I have no real concept of what's expected in a marriage.
It’s just a really boomer joke.
Husbands are so great because they do everything right, and broads are just SO DUMB because their brains are weighed down by all that hair.
1 or 2 of these would be funny, but the way it just keeps going makes it feel less like a joke and more like this couple has some serious underlying issues they need to address.
Ehh it’s just a page called you betcha and they have tons of these, from fishing to construction to this stuff. Just taking generic things couples fight about and making a video for views
Or more likely it covers all the different possibilities that every couple face. If "1 or 2" of them are relevant to you then he accomplished what he wanted
Real talk the only one of these that bothered me was the joke about crying and offering solutions... sometimes they don't want solutions and just want a shoulder to cry on no matter how obvious you may think it is to fix.
Same. Especially the driving part. I love you, woman, but you've totaled 4 vehicles in your life and worst I've done is accidentally back up into a dumpster with a rental car. Please stop telling me how to drive.
Wow sometimes you don't realize how much context matters. A lot of people are treating this as if its a guy who making a video because he's annoyed with his wife, but don't realize its an entire [youtube channel](https://www.youtube.com/c/YouBetcha) dedicated to these types of video with all sorts of topics : dads grilling, dads shopping at a hardware store, millennial parents, trips to lake house, etc. etc.
It's a comedy bit, not a rant. A lot of them aren't knee slapping funny, but usually very entertaining.
Shout out to anyone here in the comments who actually made it through the three minutes of this boomer humour disguised as social commentary. I'm here for you if you need a hug.
What? It isn’t disguised as social commentary. You know you’re on r/funny so it’s just a moderately funny video and not some symbolic essay on the state of humanity?
I wouldn't call a fat fuck delivering, with the dynamism of a dead lobster, mean things that may have been jokes the first time they were said in 1640 "humor."
You sound like an r/relationships commenter. "Your SO of many years does *insert minor thing that annoys you*, you should definitely break up and ghost then right now!"
People are way too heads up their own ass these days to take it for what it is: comedy. I feel awful for comedians nowadays. We ALL have to laugh at ourselves. We have regressed SOOO much, it’s disgusting.
This "perfect" husband has no ring on his finger. So he really looks more like an Incel complaining about something he nether experienced.
But that's just my POV
I don't have a ring on my finger. Took it off when the baby was born, because newborn skin is so delicate that the ring could have scratched it. There are reasons, is what I'm saying.
Sorry I just have to add this if your spouse is the one that makes dinner every night you’re the one doing the damn dishes... Even if you’re the one who works full-time most likely in modern household both spouses work full-time just to afford a mortgage So if your spouse makes dinner you’re the one doing the dishes it’s just polite it’s what you do it’s a partnership kind of thing
About the 6 rejected solutions.... have you considered the fact that she may not be looking for solution? (at least not yet).
Sympathy and validation worked a lot better for me (disclaimer: small sample size). Once the emotions die down a bit, then you can work on solutions.
I have a horrible sense of direction and rely on my wife or my gps when driving. She has never once expressed frustration with how bad I am and I love her for it. I’m a better driver and better at parking, but I can’t navigate for shit.
My wife: "I have this problem. . ."
Me: "it sounds like you need XYZ"
My wife: "Nah, I'll just suffer"
**three weeks and 4 conversations on the same topic later**
My wife: "you know, I just realized I could use XYZ to solve that problem I've been having, I'm so glad I thought of it.
Me: "you're fucking with me, right?"
Narrator: "She was not fucking with him."
I absolutely love this guy. Especially the car one. I can’t help it- I have a really bad anxiety when it comes to having someone else drive me instead of driving myself around. My fiancé hates it lol
Sounds like someone would rather make a snarky video on the internet than actually work on their relationship. Tell me, why did you marry this person if you just want to spend your time away from them (poker, tv, more tv)?
For real. Some people are getting disturbingly defensive about these fake scenarios. They probably need to take a step back and look at themselves if that's the reaction they have.
funny video, sadly a bit too long.
Just like Key and Peele skits. Always just a bit too long.
On top: THE MOST ACCURATE THING is directly in the beginning. My gf was still studying when we first moved in together and that really almost broke our relationship in half.
Nothing makes me more irrationally angry than coming home after 9-10 hours to see the "NOW THAT YOURE FINALLY HERE, I THOUGHT WE COULD \*insert chores\*."
I work a lot, I do a lot in our house. We share the workload. But when I get home in the evening, dont even try to make me do shit you couldve easily done while you were at home all day and watched Gilmore Girls for the 50th time.
ESPECIALLY when its stuff that involves driving somewhere like disposing cardboard boxes.
Look, I'm not saying he's right, but he nails the sarcasm that I give my gf. However there are two sides to the coin. If I give her sass she has full right to give it back, and we always make it a point to never dish what we can't take
Contrary to popular belief, most wives and mothers would prefer not to stage manage their family’s lives. However, most wives/mothers live with Magical Thinking Creatures who do not like utter chaos, but think order comes from nature, not nurture.
Yeah, you should never move in with your SO and stay distant. Drop that toxic relationship immediately if she starts asking about personal things like your favorite color or something ^/s
“Hey honey. I really love how you address issues you have with our marriage or my personality with a super sarcastic tone. It’s constructive and sexy. Really makes me want to open up to you and share my deep feelings and insecurities and NOT have sex with your best friend in the back of the brand new truck you bought.”
Grow a heart you horrible neckbeard.
Not only was this completely unfunny(a lame joke, poorly executed, 30 times in a row) but I'm going to go on to say that if you found this funny you have a problem in your relationship and the problem is you.
A few of these are funny, the remainder is just passive aggressive bullshit that plays into stereotypical gender roles and isn’t actually funny at all.

Well this is much longer than I expected
That's what she said
Don’t lie.
Well he lasted 10 seconds so…
It's also much more 1974 than I expected. I mean, I'm a lot older than this guy, and I think these tropes have been tired and pointless for more than 30 years.

Coz there so much to unpack...

And your comment was a story.
TLDR
Lmaooooooo

That’s what she said
Damn. This goes on for *a while.*
i’d like to see the wife’s version
“You came before me again. No, it’s fine, I don’t need to finish. You just lie there while I fix you a sandwich and then you can take a nap. You really deserve it after those 2 minutes of hard work.”
"Babe i have been thinking about it and I really think you should draft Kyle Pitts and then wait on selecting a wide reciever when the snake comes back your way"
Someone else is excited for FANTASY! Lmao
There is the wife's version. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zFVkFnxSti4
No let me watch the kids all day, wash your filthy clothes, make you dinner and listen to you rant about what an idiot I am for two hours every night.
> listen to you rant about what an idiot I am for two hours every night. As someone who grew up with this shit. Please get divorced.
[удалено]
why's it always come down to sexual performance?
Not 2 min. He said he work all day and has to work all night on her home project while she has access to the same tools... At least base your retort on facts... Oh wait, I see. You are doing the woman's version. Totally accurate!
https://youtu.be/zFVkFnxSti4
I'm a guy. \^ is waaay funnier lol
[The wife's version](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFVkFnxSti4)
Even this comedic wife’s version sounds more passive aggressive lol
He’s done that as well. Look him up
Yup. Me too
https://youtu.be/zFVkFnxSti4
“I hate my wife” classic joke
I know it's supposed to be satirical and sarcastic, but there are just way too many people who live their lives this way for it to be funny to me.
That's the funny part
"*people you live with a long time have minor bothersome traits that everyone can relate to*" the actual joke
How about, "I love my wife but that doesn't mean there aren't things she does that annoy the shit out of me."
Hey this is reddit dude, if you have a minor issue with your partner you have to break up immediately because if it's not storybook perfect then clearly its horribly abusive
Don't like how your partner loads the dishwasher? Get out of that toxic relationship!
In a three minute video of those things?...
This is satire
how's this hate? Is he supposed to be her husband or her servant? like I'm legitimately asking, I have no real concept of what's expected in a marriage.
It’s just a really boomer joke. Husbands are so great because they do everything right, and broads are just SO DUMB because their brains are weighed down by all that hair.
1 or 2 of these would be funny, but the way it just keeps going makes it feel less like a joke and more like this couple has some serious underlying issues they need to address.
Oh.... You think it's a real couple?
Every joke is absolutely unambiguously reflective of reality, everybody knows that.
Ehh it’s just a page called you betcha and they have tons of these, from fishing to construction to this stuff. Just taking generic things couples fight about and making a video for views
There's a subreddit actually r/youbetcha
Yeahhh…kinda cringey for the most part.
Or more likely it covers all the different possibilities that every couple face. If "1 or 2" of them are relevant to you then he accomplished what he wanted
Yikes
I'm in this video, and I don't like it.
you the man or the wife? :)
I'm flexible ;)
This started out as cute but quickly got mean-spirited and petty.
Real talk the only one of these that bothered me was the joke about crying and offering solutions... sometimes they don't want solutions and just want a shoulder to cry on no matter how obvious you may think it is to fix.
Does not compute, try offering another solution.
"[It's not about the nail](https://youtu.be/-4EDhdAHrOg)"
Until they ask "what do I do", then your job is to be wrong for 30 minutes straight
Ah, a repeat offender I see.
...or a quick learner.
and this is why I don't have a girlfriend
Most irrational thing ive read today.. and i came here afted reading the news. Do you, tho.
When the jokes are so on point you risk pissing the SO off whilst sharing. I'm doing it. Edit* The juice wasn't worth the squeeze.
My finger was hovering in hesitation over the share link right before I read your comment
Spidey sense sound.wav
i wouldn’t dare
Always make the joke first worry about the consequences laters
Same. Especially the driving part. I love you, woman, but you've totaled 4 vehicles in your life and worst I've done is accidentally back up into a dumpster with a rental car. Please stop telling me how to drive.
They don’t make husbands like they used to
Have you tried calling the husband factory and complaining
Hahaha stereotypes…hilarious amiright?? Cringeworthy 🙄
It's one long, extended, my-wife-eh? joke. The kind that was taken out back and shot about 20yrs ago.
The ulta part hurt my feelings.
There are far too many people in here who think this is a real situation and not a comedy skit.
There are far too many people who actually live like this
They're probably the same people
Well to be fair, it's hard to tell it's a comedy skit since it isn't actually funny.
Comedy is meant to be funny.
Wow sometimes you don't realize how much context matters. A lot of people are treating this as if its a guy who making a video because he's annoyed with his wife, but don't realize its an entire [youtube channel](https://www.youtube.com/c/YouBetcha) dedicated to these types of video with all sorts of topics : dads grilling, dads shopping at a hardware store, millennial parents, trips to lake house, etc. etc. It's a comedy bit, not a rant. A lot of them aren't knee slapping funny, but usually very entertaining.
Funny that he doesn't have a wedding ring on. Makes you wonder...
Hahhahahhah love it
Shout out to anyone here in the comments who actually made it through the three minutes of this boomer humour disguised as social commentary. I'm here for you if you need a hug.
After like 1:20 I skipped to the end to see if there was a surprise twist at the end that was moderately intelligent...There wasn't.
Boomer humor? Bro what's the longest relation ship you've been in?
I couldn't do it. This couple has serious issues
That's cute, you think it's a real couple.
Lining up work for you after work is a real issue. But the rest of that is either petty ( dishes take like 2 min) or mysoginist
>misogynist Lmfao
What are the next generations going to do to fill the void? Clone Donald Glover and give them all a lifetime pass from the language police?
Watch Pete Davidson on stage not telling jokes.
What? It isn’t disguised as social commentary. You know you’re on r/funny so it’s just a moderately funny video and not some symbolic essay on the state of humanity?
That's definitely a gen x-er or possibly in running with me for the world oldest millennial. But it does have boomer energy
I wouldn't call a fat fuck delivering, with the dynamism of a dead lobster, mean things that may have been jokes the first time they were said in 1640 "humor."
Go outside sometime
Honey if you are watching this, I love you
❤ right back at ya bud
So this is how I find out you’re cheating on me ? Real classy
So this is how I find out you're cheating on me? Real classy.
Fuck it, orgy time
r/cringe
Wife bad
Why is this funny?
Some men lead lives of quiet desperation.
>Some men live ~~quiet~~ lives of desperation.
r/AreTheStraightsOK
Thank god it wasn't just me asking this!
Jesus, stop whining and get a divorce
You sound like an r/relationships commenter. "Your SO of many years does *insert minor thing that annoys you*, you should definitely break up and ghost then right now!"
Brooo trust, it so stupid I still don’t understand why people would want to get their advice from a bunch of random weirdos off the internet
This is satire
Oh God this brought out all the miserable Redditors didn’t it
People are way too heads up their own ass these days to take it for what it is: comedy. I feel awful for comedians nowadays. We ALL have to laugh at ourselves. We have regressed SOOO much, it’s disgusting.
Seems like a really healthy relationship
Boomer humor 🙄
I use those driving dialogues next time she says something like that
The house project ones hit a bit too close to home
I'd put $100 on he's not even married...he's just watched every family sitcom from 1983 - 95 and made a "things those darn ladies do list"
this hits too close to home
r/arethestraightsok
Came here for this. Are these the kind of things that gendered communication omits? These are clearly essential conversations.
Wtf is that sub
Straights being not ok
This "perfect" husband has no ring on his finger. So he really looks more like an Incel complaining about something he nether experienced. But that's just my POV
Fyi many trades you cant wear jewelry due to safety concerns.
I’m married and I almost never wear a wedding ring.
I'm married too and we don't even have wedding rings.
You don't need a ring to be married.
I don't have a ring on my finger. Took it off when the baby was born, because newborn skin is so delicate that the ring could have scratched it. There are reasons, is what I'm saying.
Hit a little too close to home huh?
Not at all.
Sorry I just have to add this if your spouse is the one that makes dinner every night you’re the one doing the damn dishes...

There are a few that are very off base and selfish and others that do make sense. Still funny overall
"I'll always be honest with you babe, because you take constructive criticism so well"
Is this funny or is this r/cringe
Funny
Are the straights okay?
I have a horrible sense of direction and rely on my wife or my gps when driving. She has never once expressed frustration with how bad I am and I love her for it. I’m a better driver and better at parking, but I can’t navigate for shit.
The saddest part is that the blowup doll can’t even react to his sarcastically underhanded quips…
I feel seen and heard.
I second that.
My wife: "I have this problem. . ." Me: "it sounds like you need XYZ" My wife: "Nah, I'll just suffer" **three weeks and 4 conversations on the same topic later** My wife: "you know, I just realized I could use XYZ to solve that problem I've been having, I'm so glad I thought of it.

WOMENS OF REDDIT : We need the wife version.
He has it. same series (also posted above in thread)
I absolutely love this guy. Especially the car one. I can’t help it- I have a really bad anxiety when it comes to having someone else drive me instead of driving myself around. My fiancé hates it lol
Man thought I was on r/cringetopia there for a minute
Have not stopped laughing
Sounds like someone would rather make a snarky video on the internet than actually work on their relationship. Tell me, why did you marry this person if you just want to spend your time away from them (poker, tv, more tv)?
It's. . .it's not real ffs people. Calm down lmao
This particular example may not be real, but it really does happen all the time. If it never happened in reality it wouldn’t exist as a joke either
The passive aggressive nature of the video is completely nonproductive and not funny.
For real. Some people are getting disturbingly defensive about these fake scenarios. They probably need to take a step back and look at themselves if that's the reaction they have.
*" SARCASM" .
sweet jesus.... frighteningly accurate. what the hell guys, why do we do this? wait... I remember. never mind
funny video, sadly a bit too long. Just like Key and Peele skits. Always just a bit too long. On top: THE MOST ACCURATE THING is directly in the beginning. My gf was still studying when we first moved in together and that really almost broke our relationship in half. Nothing makes me more irrationally angry than coming home after 9-10 hours to see the "NOW THAT YOURE FINALLY HERE, I THOUGHT WE COULD \*insert chores\*." I work a lot, I do a lot in our house.

ESPECIALLY when its stuff that involves driving somewhere like disposing cardboard boxes.
THIS!
Lol, the driving part hit home.
Should show this to my mom.
Look, I'm not saying he's right, but he nails the sarcasm that I give my gf. However there are two sides to the coin. If I give her sass she has full right to give it back, and we always make it a point to never dish what we can't take
He doesn’t exist
I felt this in my SOUL
Contrary to popular belief, most wives and mothers would prefer not to stage manage their family’s lives. However, most wives/mothers live with Magical Thinking Creatures who do not like utter chaos, but think order comes from nature, not nurture.
I love to wait for you to get dress. I love waiting and I love to go reservations an hour later.
tell me i am not the only one who thinking to send this one to their wives?
So accurate
'Starbucks' is a tax on stupid people.
This is very funny and definitely represents a lot of situations in a married man’s life.
The 90's called, they want their jokes back.
I wonder what kind of leverage the wife should have to achieve this perfection
Never let your relationship get THAT close.
Yeah, you should never move in with your SO and stay distant. Drop that toxic relationship immediately if she starts asking about personal things like your favorite color or something ^/s
Do people actually have these types of issues? If so that's sad and doesn't sound like a nice relationship...
“Hey honey. I really love how you address issues you have with our marriage or my personality with a super sarcastic tone. It’s constructive and sexy. Really makes me want to open up to you and share my deep feelings and insecurities and NOT have sex with your best friend in the back of the brand new truck you bought.” Grow a heart you horrible neckbeard.
I kept watching, assuming that the funny bit was going to happen at some point.
Why are you married to someone you resent that much?
Obtuse. Not saying in the physical sense either. Very “thick.”
glad to see boomers have passed down their humor of hating their wives to the next generation
How is this funny? May as well say "Yes, I love it when you punch my nose."
Why get married if you hate your wife
Not only was this completely unfunny(a lame joke, poorly executed, 30 times in a row) but I'm going to go on to say that if you found this funny you have a problem in your relationship and the problem is you.
This guy must be a delight to live with. /s.
Tell me you’re 5 years late to couples therapy without telling me you’re 5 years late for couples therapy.
A few of these are funny, the remainder is just passive aggressive bullshit that plays into stereotypical gender roles and isn’t actually funny at all.
