    While looking for my daughter's Halloween bucket today, my wife opened the basement closet (aka The Beer Closet), and we had the following conversation:

    Her: You have to much beer.
    Me: That's not a thing.
    Her: Yes, it is. You have too much.

    Below is a picture of what she was looking at. Help me put, BA. Post a picture of your stash, wherever it is, so I can show her how reasonable I am.

    Not too much. The Pampers is encroaching on your lower shelf. But if you lose the argument I call dibs ...

    I'd say your collection is modest compared to many I've seen. Tell your wife she has too many shoes (or whatever else she likes or has a lot of)

    What's that? 30 beers or so? I feel like if it was just a 30-pack of Natty Light neatly in the standard packaging, there would be no issue here, no?

    Yes, thank you. It's around 50 or so. Maybe presentation is the issue.

    Your argument can go both ways:

    1. Compared to other people on BA with a cellar, you have less beer and money invested in your cellar than average.
    2. Compared to other people on the planet Earth, you have more beer and money invested in your cellar than 99.99% of the population.

    Posting the question on here is like asking a bunch of crackheads if you smoke too much crack.

    In her defense, she did ask me if I wanted to get more while at Safeway today. She also buys me beer randomly. She complains and supports!

    Show her this. Make sure she realizes that most of those shelves go all the way back, and I have a ton of bottles in the fridge already. Agree with her when she calls me and idiot and says "well I'd never date THAT dude."

    Don't let anybody tell you that because THEY don't like something, you do it too much. I'd bet your work paid for the beer AND the shelf.

    You don't have "too much" beer, you just need a larger closet or better shelving. I have too much beer, the reason being I have 2 12 packs that I didn't have room for on my shelves, aka the beer larder.

    With all due respect that is a terrible idea. Do you think she's going to say, Wow I never thought about it like that. You're right? That's never happened ever in the history of the world.

    I've had girlfriends tell me I have too much beer, wine, fishing tackle, knives, hunting equipment, and hot sauce. Well, none of those gals lasted and I still have all my cool shit.

    On the other hand, I now have a SO who enjoys beer and supports my hobbies. This is a mixed blessing as when I find myself saying I don't need or can't afford something she pretty much says if I want it then I should just buy it.

    I have too much beer, and as much as I try to rectify it, I unintentionally add more.

    For some reason when you stack up different type of six packs and bombers it looks like more stuff. When I would buy 24 pack of canned pbr it looked like less and I didn't get "omg more beer" insinuating that I should stop buying.

    Your wife is correct & to appease her you need to send everything but the diapers to me.
