Sooooooo
a few days ago me and the wife of 40+++ years are watching TV and out from nowhere she says
27. I politely responded with a
What(?). She says
27. I politely responded with another
What(?) She responded with a short and sweet
your stereo. I responded with another
What(?), and a little louder this time she says
27. I politely said something along the line of help me out here
what are you saying. She said youve got 27 pieces of stereo equipment in this room. I looked at my system and stared counting
amp, pre-pro, CD, and 2 speakers = (help me out here)
5
and proudly announced my findings
and she says
thats what I mean
youre out of control. I politely said What(?)
and she starts counting everything down to the cable lifters, speaker stands, interconnects, power cables, and on and on and on. I looked at her and said
What(?).
WAF - Wife Acceptance Factor
Much has been written in these threads about the dreaded WAF, or wife acceptance factor. It usually entails making a compromise, or not getting that perfect speaker, or amp, or ... Well you get the picture.
But tell the truth guys. Haven't there been times when wifey actually helped?
In my case, I casually mentioned to my wife that the picture quality of my front projector would be much improved if I could better cotrol the light in the den. So what did she do?
She put up nice thick curtains. It not only blocks the light and makes the den like a cave, it also improves the diffuse surround sound field with the absorptive material. What a gal!
Would love to hear your stories. :o)
