What’s Eating Us? This Dude Who Won’t Eat His Own Food

May 2, 2016

Have you been feeling inadequate being just his girlfriend or wife lately? Perhaps there are other gaps in his life that require filling. A man needs his mommy to anticipate and fulfil his needs. So once you’re done making his breakfast exactly the way he likes it, make sure you feed it to him with his favourite spoon from his favourite bowl. Don’t forget to blow on it so it is at the right temperature. Give him a smile of pride and approval for not dropping any of the food. Wipe his mouth. Give him a sip of water if the food is too hot. Reward him with a treat when he is done. Smile while you fix his tie. Remind him to be a good boy before you send him off to work.

He is a grown man perfectly capable of taking care of himself, you say? That’s not even the point. You will mother him anyway because of your maternal instincts. You don’t think you have them? Of course you do. Don’t you want to feel the gratification and approval we see on this woman’s face on having taken good care of her man’s needs?

This fulfilment comes in three different flavours. Simply Pongal, Green Pudina and Spanish Salsa. Culinary regional diversity: check. Ridiculousness: check. Frivolity resulting in finger pointing and chuckling: check. Making a complete fool of themselves: also check.

    theladiesfinger Kellogg’s loves the ridiculousness. Once I accidentally bought this “breakfast cereal for men”. http://twitter.com/RamneekKaur496/status/729284650611302400/photo/1
