    I'm so glad I have a better girl to share my hobbies with.

    Then :
    Ex wife : I'm setting rules. Not more than 15 beers in the house.

    Me : You mean in the fridge? *ducks*

    (Later sneaks beer in so she doesn't see it, lives secret life of beer hoarding with constant fear of being found out).

    Ex wife : Now when we are in this store, you are not looking at more guns.
    Me : I'm just looking.
    Ex : looking is buying. (Cue small fit being thrown)


    Now :

    Me : hey, I found a bunch of limited beers at the store.
    (Still flinches from ex wife's dictatorship)
    Girlfriend : Awesome! Any that I'd like?
    Me : there's one with an owl on it.
    Girlfriend : that one's mine. :grinning: any sours?
    Me : one. It's an ommegang.
    Girl : I love ommegang!

    Girl : I want to look at more guns.
    Me : *creams pants*

    Girl : if you want that guitar, buy it. Just make sure we have enough room so you're not hanging it up in the bathroom.
    Me : *squeals like a girl*

    I like these four rules, and I obey them with beer just like she does with workout clothes. While I tell her she has too much (somewhat sarcastically) I buy her more because I know she loves it. While she tells me I have too much beer (somewhat sarcastically) she buys me more because she knows I love it. I guess we're doing pretty good. And seeing all the cellars on here, I now believe I need more beer storage when I move this spring.

    The clever thing would be to use the diaper box to store more beer. Shelf full of diapers? No one is the wiser!

    Like hell you do...

    Sometimes there's just no explaining a "better half's" point of view...although "myopic viewpoint" may apply here...

    And, sorry, no pix of my stash at the moment...it's spread out between the main fridge, the man cave fridge, the exterior garage, and the interior garage...I have a few (i.e., 10-12 cases worth or so of product) and my wife generally tolerates things (and I'm ever so lucky for that)...

    Me: I'm going to Giant Eagle. I need more beer.
    Wife: Why don't you just drink the beer you already have?
    Me: Why don't you just wear the shoes you already have?
    Wife: Go get your beer.

    I have a wine fridge filled up with about 3 other cases. My "cellar" is very pedestrian compared to most.

    Her: You have to much beer.
    Me: That's not a thing.


    This cracked me up for some reason.

    At some point when you have enough full cases it just turns into furniture. I have a couple that have become book shelves. I also have to fight a cat who has claimed one stack as a perch. Just sell all your regular furniture and replace it with full cases of beer and she'll never be the wiser.

    You should see my dining room. That is where I keep my warm beer and my wine rack. It has not gone over too well with my better half.

    Tell her that you showed that to everyone on BA and they all laughed and said that it's not a beer cellar and barely even qualifies as a stash. She might actually feel bad and encourage you to buy more beer.

    I'm not sure the amount of time I spend on this site and the number of pictures I take of beer really helps my cause.

    Dear Sir: You do not have too much beer. I have over 400 bottles of homebrew cellaring. Half the "main fridge" is full of beer. The entire "wine fridge" is full of beer. The fridge in the workshop is full of beer.

    And, I had some work downtown today. I stopped at a bottle shop that I've never been to before. I believe there is more beer in my car at this very moment than all the beer in your picture.

    Finally, if your wife doesn't like the beer, I would be more than happy to come over. I'm pretty sure I can wipe out 1/4 of your cache within 48 hours. I'll buy the pizza. I'll buy breadsticks too if you have a dog I can pet while we drink. That's my "perfect trifecta" beer, pizza, and petting a dog. Life doesn't get much better.

    Carpe Diem, my friend!

    It's less than I have, but I'm not arguing with your wife, it's her house.
