Sometimes, boyfriends think that girlfriends tell them to do or not to do certain things just to be annoying or naggy. Other times, we’re actually looking out for you and trying to make your life easier (we’re not always trying to be a huge pain in the ass, in fact, most times we’re not). While we love and care about you, we want to make sure you’re happy and healthy – that’s why we’re always on your back. But, of course, boyfriends don’t like to listen to their girlfriends often. Maybe it’s a masculinity thing – or maybe they’re just stupid. Either way, we all know what it’s like to say “I told ya so,” to our men. One Twitter user Sarah Gailey shared an incredible, cringeworthy and disgusting story about an ex who refused to listen to her and learned the very, very hard way.
From the very beginning, I’m intrigued and my curiosity is peaked by the way she describes her ex.
I once dated a terrible man who was awful &horrible &I shouldn't have dated him. You know the type. Just picture "awful," that's him. 1/

One of the horrible things about this man was that he didn't listen to me. Ever. Even if he asked a question, he'd ignore the answer.

One night we were at a family member's house and he spotted something curious lying on the coffee table.
"What's that?" he asked.

Now, I’m hooked.
"Don't touch it," I said, even as he reached for the thing on the table.
Did he listen?
What do you think, reader?

He grabbed it &started to fiddle with it.
"Put that down, you don't want to touch it" I said.
"But what is it?" he asked, still fiddling.

What was he playing with???
"It's — put it down, don't touch that button," I said.
What do you imagine he did?

Reader, he raised the thing in his hand to eye level, looked right at me, and
touched

But, what does the button DO?!?
I was trying to save him from himself.
I really was.
But it all happened so fast, there wasn't time for me to explain what the thing was.

Twitter, if y'all have ever watched television, you have probably seen a commercial for
The Ped Egg9/

Oh dear God…
The Ped Egg, for the uninitiated, is a little egg-shaped device. It's hollow.
On the underside, there's a little foot grater.10/

You can use the Ped Egg to grate off the crusty, barnacled undersides of your gnarled-up feet. The egg part catches the foot shavings.
