You're trying to "sell" it, I'll give you that...

This is stupid. I wish my wife made more than the $18,000 per year she currently makes coaching gymnastics. I wish she made 2x what I make. That would be awesome, probably a lot more fun than having to use my income exclusively to pay for everything.

So you want to subject yourself to increased risk of disease? That was the point of the article. Of course, IMU's point is less about health and more about faux concern over a board adversary.

Seriously IMU, you look really bad with threads like this. Worry about your own life and not how others choose to live them especially when it involves being an active father and being financially stable enough to do things that many working families wish they could do.

Though, it is amusing to see one of the younger members of the forum trying to use the 1950s style stigma against "stay at home" dads as a negative.


I think you're taking this too personal. The lone target of this was Chus and I'm pretty sure it was meant to just poke him. Probably not something IMU believes. Kinda like the Pulte thing with Dennis or the countless other things MANY post to annoy someone else. I wouldn't dig this deep into it. Chus has proven he's more than capable of handling himself.
Attacking his marriage with his wife is wrong and he deserved to be called out on it. IMU can handle it too. He probably enjoyed my response too.


This isn't an attack on his wife. This is an "attack" on Chus and he's basically ignored it. I think that was the right move.
It's an attack on Chus as a husband and father especially in the context of some of the recent other comments made by IMU.

Chus is smart to ignore it because IMU is making himself look bad but that doesn't mean others can't chime in to make the point more known.


Wasn't IMU's thread baiting Chus based on information (domestic/employment situation) Chus himself has posted on this board?

Since Chus disclosed these details to the board, why shouldn't other board members be free to react to it?

Further, one can only consider IMU's attack meaningful if one subscribes to a conventional definition of gender roles. Since Chus obviously does not, this attack should have no effect on him.

I do not believe the issue is bringing it up. It's how he is trying, and failing, to shame him for it.

I don't think this was more than just a poke and MANY of you guys got offended by it. Chus has been open about what he and he wife decided to do for their family. I'm confident that no one can shame him for that decision.

Was IMU trying to be an asshole with this thread? There is no doubt about it. That being said this was like a 2 on the mean scale. I say this as a guy who gets called Mr. Mom regularly for almost a decade. The responses have been harsher than the post. People are now trying to shame IMU for not being married and some other crap.

No one can shame Chus besides IMU though. I mean besides that.

CHUSE likes Phish, the Detroit Lions, and Tiger Woods. There are plenty of things to 'shame' him about. This thread was an unnecessary potshot.

The responses are in large part due to the recent posting history of IMU on this subject and that is about things said days or weeks after he started this with the comment about the cat.

I understand why folks are reacting to him the way they are. I just feel like you all could find a better thread than this one. Chus can correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think this bothered him at all.

We're all jealous of Chus for not having to work. That said, I bet his wife pegs him with a 10 inch dido once a week before giving him his allowance.

Find a better thread? :lol: This thread was created with one motive; to make fun of, or to shame CHUSE. IMU can claim whatever he wants. We all know why he started this thread.

The intent of the thread was to be a dick. Whether it worked or not is another matter. Not sure why you're trying so hard to minimize it.

Clearly because I don't see it the way that you all do. I imagine the fact that I don't hate/dislike IMU could be one of the reasons. You're free to feel the way that you do about it. I'm just offering an alternative point of view.

Since when do I hate IMU? I can just be objective about things no matter who it is.

I don't think you can. Only I am able to be objective. :wink: Some people who have responded dislike IMU for things he's done or said in the past. That likely influenced their response.
