Another domestic situation question...

Ok...another one

Who's got the most understanding and devoted wife/partner/girlfriend/whatever? As in... what's the most disgusting thing - read the next bit very very carefully...RIB RELATED - that your other half has put up with ungrudgingly in your quest to be a seasoned nobber?

If it's RIB related, it's a Yes, every time. She even told me to spend a bit more when I was shopping for a RIB and not to be buying some old scow...
