I do the DIY in our house so when I ask the OH to get me a screwdriver he says stupid things like "is that the one with the crossy bit on the end?" or "the one with the grippy bit?"

My favourite, really silly one, is "let's run it up the flagpole and see who salutes"
I've not heard anybody say that, but if they did I'd be tempted to smack them in the mouth!!

There was the time I went a bit 'changing rooms' and sanded down some kitchen cupboard doors to paint... they turned out to be laminated and ended up costing a new kitchen...
The there was the time I put a wall light up. The hammer wasn't doing the trick so I used liquid nails. All fine and dandy until we needed to redecorate and the wall light didn't wanna come off... that finished with having to get the wall completely replastered.
Do I need to go on?

I put up a new light fixture after my old one broke and my dad felt the need to ask "Did you actually turn the electric off this time?"
like I'd make the same mistake twice
Sorry Renton but I have another OH story
He says "where did I leave that thingy I had earlier?" I say "top drawer in the kitchen" and he calls me a smartarse

Dads ask the silliest questions. Shall we start on dads now?
Not a rant, but a blinder of a blunder from Mr Sec.
On returning from the shops with my daughter, he pipes up,
"There's a dirty swan on the pool. I've never seen a dirty swan before."
Me:
Mr Sec: "I swear to god."
Daughter: "It was a flippin' signet, dad."
