Why does the MRS pay $28 to get the dog\'s haircut and go him a sweater
Off topic but I struggle for understanding.

If it wasn't for the Mrs. your dog would be cold and would need a haircut.

If you were meant to understand women, you would be gay.

Other, you obviously make too much money and she is struggling to find ways to spend it.
My roomie thinks its because she's compensating for a lack of children. Personally I'd get a cat ;0) |

To be frank, it's because she knows a sucker who will pay the bill.

I don't pay for dog related expenses.
We don't have kids so the room mate might be right. |

Re: Why does the MRS pay $28 to get the dog\'s haircut and go him a sweater
Different people have different utility functions. You just have to accept that not everyone values things the way you do. Hell, I buy books knowing that the likelihood I will ever make it to them is slim at best (because my reading list is so friggin long, and only gets longer).
It is usually futile to try to apply rationality to emotion, if it makes her happy to do such (IMO) silly things, you just have to accept it. (I mean really, when you start to analyze it, how is this different from say paying to go to a sporting event or the movies or anything "fun".) |

Re: Why does the MRS pay $28 to get the dog\'s haircut and go him a sweater
To UNDERSTAND the MRS, You must think LIKE the MRS...
Your wife is a capitalist, as are we all, and while she is spending this money out of her own pocket, she is getting a reciprocation out of it. While men often tend to put more value on use(although not always, ladies!), women often put more emphasis on sign-exchange value. She is not spending the money for the sole reason of keeping the dog warm, she's spending it for the comments that her friends will give her on it's cuteness, and therefore elevate her psychologically in esteem and potentially elevate their opinion of her and her sense of taste. It is, in many ways, the reason we(men) get cars that are far too powerful for our practical needs. We get a sense of pride from the 64 1/2 mustang with a big block. We don't need it, it does nothing for us that a 85 honda civic couldn't do(theoretically), but for those same reasons of sign-exchange value, we want it. -Just be glad that the hair cut and sweater didn't cost fifty grand. Take care, Ez |

Re: Why does the MRS pay $28 to get the dog\'s haircut and go him a sweater
Thst makes a lot of sense. Her buddies all have dogs and they buy christmas presents and label them from Spike or whatever to Fritz and She buys presents for their dogs from Fritz. Our dog has received Christmas cards.
While I didn't vote for option #1 I gave it serious consideration. Sorry, Her buddy's dog isn't Spike, its Winston. |

Same reason they do most things that they do, because the Dark Overlord of the Universe, Supreme Commander of Females, ordered it done.
