What you are about to read is factual, the names have been changed to protect the innocent.....if you don't believe me, well, we'll let the FABO members decide???
The wife tells me, "Honey, the stuff around the outside edge of the tile on the shower floor is coming off and we don't want water getting under the shower floor.....can you fix it??" I say "Sure Honey, I'll get some tub and tile (caulking/silicone stuff) an fix it today!!". So I buy the tub and tile stuff get on my hands and knees (something that nobody likes to do!!!) and scrape out the flaking caulking, clean the all the surfaces and put new caulking in place. This job is a real pain in the @ss!! I tell the wife to give it a day or two so that it completely dries and we're good to go!! A week later I find my wife scrubbing the shower floor with some tile grout whitener and a stiff broom. I ask her, "Honey, why don't you get down on the shower floor and scrub it with a sponge so you don't tear up the caulking with that broom". She says, "Well, I would, but I hate getting down on my hands and knees to clean it!"
Now at this point a normal man would light his hair on fire and start yelling.....but not me. I say, "Well Honey, if you use that broom to scrub the tiles and the grout and the caulking your going to rip the caulking off again and I'll have to get on my hands and knees and do it all over again. "She gets a stern look on her face, turns around and says, "DO YOU WANT TO SCRUB THE BATHROOM FLOORS OR DO YOU WANT ME TO DO IT??????!!!!"
You'll find me hanging myself from the big Oak tree out back!!!
