Anyone here ever held an intervention?

[jakethebake]

We get in the car last night to go to dinner, and the radio comes on whatever station the wife's been listening to. I didn't really pay much attention until the words "Ashlee Simpson" jump out at me and I think to myself "What the [censored] is she listening to?" Then Ashlee Simpson comes on and she starts kind of humming along. I just stared at her. She then confessed she's been listening to the local pop stations for awhile now. Where the hell did this person come from?

When I met my wife she was on a first name basis with probably a couple dozen well-known rock/blues musicians. I'm talking people like Jimmy Vaughan, Charlie Sexton, Doyle Bramhall, David Grissom, Bill Carter, all of Stevie Ray's old Double Trouble band, Gibby Haynes and others. She dragged me out to light a candle at Stevie's statue on his birthday. She had a completely different face she made when listening to a good guitar solo versus a good drum solo. Now she's listening to Ashlee Simpson???

I considering some kind of intervention. How would I do this? Any other ideas?

[steelcmg]

Just smack some dam sense into her.

[BoogerFace]

IMO, interventions are a bad idea.

This made me laugh. You somehow went from pop music to throwing this in there. Nice! /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Hell, this is easy.

She is mother to a three year old kid.

Brain rot. Comes with the territory. Intervention will not help. The carefree lass you married is gone.

There has to be some kind of medical treatment?

Hell, stop complaining - at least she goes to bed at 9, and leaves you in peace.

Have you thought about aversion therapy? A small electro-shock whenever she listens to a pop song instead of something with heart?

You could tie her up and play different kinds of music, and for the pop songs, you shock her, but for the good stuff, stimulate her sexually. This will reinforce the notion that pop=bad, music that rocks=good. Besides, it's a fun way to spend the day, and it can have great repercussions on you sex life.

One thing is sure, you can't stand idly by and let these dirtbag corporate scum to do this to your wife. Her soul - may I say her entire BEING - hangs in the balance.

Rather than an intervention, why not just go to the cottage for a weekend and listen to some good music by the fire?

Have you been spying on my house. I am only home 4 days a fortnight and at times she still goes to bed at that time. She always wants me to go with her too (knowing I am getting back up) and the dilema is always how long to wait before getting the hell out of there.

Jake, the answer is for you to man up and take over the radio controls.

I recommend

This isn't really the issue. She'll still listen to that crap when I'm not in the car. I don't know if I can live with a retard. Also, she might dangerous around the children. /images/graemlins/shocked.gif

This is my worry my daughter has grown up liking my music the best, Chop Suey by System of a Down was her first favourite song, when I am home I have the metal channels and she comes in dances etc. BUt I am away a lot and my partner has crap taste in music and somtimes my daughter is singing these crappy pop songs and watching mtv hits undoing all my good work.

[Shajen]

the only option you have I think is to confront her about this. After you have confronted her, you should then listen to something she hates.

Why?

So you can say I know you hate this, and how irritated it makes you when I listen to it. I get the same way when you listen to bubble gum pop.

I apologize for giving actual advice in this thread.

[asofel]

get her drunk then put on some cold shot...little wing....and pride and joy....remind her of the older days when she was that cute carefree lass......then get drunk as well and call her...
