I told him TO do inVesment / He bought more land in farmville
A Internet Husband post.
Anniversary dinner. She says, "I feel like we don't talk any more." He suggests she try restarting the router. The candle burns down. He's still waiting for her to reconnect. In the car she says she's feeling old. He says she should install the updates. She drives the rest of the way in silence, at a speed she later describes as "sending a message". She proposes on holiday, on a beach, at sunset. He says, "I accept the terms and conditions." It's the first document he's ever agreed to without scrolling. One in the morning, from the landing: "Are you coming to bed?" From the desk: "One more match." This was in 2014. The match is still going. **Why it caught on:** a stock photo sold as a man at a computer with a sad woman in the background became a meme on Reddit in May 2011, also called Redditor's Wife. It's every relationship that has had to compete with a screen.
