When words have no meaning: my mom asked my dad to buy some butter, and he came back with a spray bottle of I can't believe it's not butter.

@dillyd I have to wonder how his thought chain came up with this? I feel for him!

@avlcharlie @paulbusch @dillyd weaponized incompetence. I would never accept that from my husband (I make him redo-finish anything that needs to be done if needed; next time it's done properly! And I expect him to do the same with me)

I'm not only the principal shopper, but also the chief cook and bottlewasher, so I 'most never come home without the right stuff.

Omg. I've never heard "weaponized incompetence" before. Perfect.

Oh my gosh

@stephanie fortunately not!

@danneau @avlcharlie @paulbusch @dillyd You also need to be okay with the other person asking a lot of questions if it's something they don't do often. I would write a lot of details if I sent my husband to do the grocery shopping by himself. I'm the one cooking, I know what I need, he doesn't lol teamwork!

Weaponized Incompetence

I need to clarify: this isn't a case of weaponized incompetence. The product he got was ok for what she was going to do with it. It struck me as funny because I would personally never choose such a product, but it was sufficient for their needs.
