View Full Version : Dip disagreement

So all day today I've been looking at some dip Ulu put in the crock pot. It looked like some kind of cheese something for this weekend and it's a huge batch. All day I've been hopeful but wary. Hopeful because I could tell it had a high likelihood of meaty, cheesyness, but distrustful and a little bitter. Because of the goddamn Rotel.

Rotel is a chili, tomatoe concoction that supposedly "makes ordinary dishes come alive with Southwestern flavor." What it makes dishes come alive with for me is what I'd imagine the flavor of a dead 17 year old Honduran prostitute's foot rot to be like. Now ordinarily I would agree with you when you said "Just don't eat it." Well, that doesn't work. You see, I'm married to a NoDak, and apparently that shit is like catnip for NoDaks. She puts it in everything, and I hate that shit more every time I'm unpleasantly surprised by it.

I haven't eaten and I'm fucking starving, and I'm staring at cheese dip that will make me want to stab a priest if I eat it. I'm seriously that enraged by it. Ten years ago she asked me to try Rotel, so I did and immediately informed her that I despise not only the Rotel, but the company that makes it and the families of their employees. And yet for the last ten years, every single time she's made any kind of dip, that garbage reappears. Seriously, GIVE IT A FUCKING REST.

So now I'm starving, staring at cheese dip that I now cannot eat. Given that I haven't eaten since six last night, it's making me a little pissed.

Make yourself something manly and awesome to eat and don`t share.

Ya. Pretty sure the stove/oven will turn on as easily for you as it does for her.

And why dont you tell her that its shit, instead of informing us. We cant do anything about it for you. You told her ten years ago, but did you ever think of telling her again? And making it clear that you hate the shit, and dont want it in your food?

Five minute dip; equal quantities of shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, and a good salsa, then toss in a jar of olives. No heating required; just mix it. Screw that Rotel shit.

Not really, it just tastes like shit. I tell her every time that I hate the Rotel, she never listens. So last night I got in the car, got more stuff and made my own dip. Hopefully that takes care of this issue.

What do you tell a woman with two black eyes?

Nothing, you already told her twice.

I think it's time to take off your belt and deal out some punishment....

Seriously, whether or not WE like Rotel or even know what it is, doesn't matter. The issue is a lack of respect for the King of the Castle (Frank Castle, get it?) and that is intolerable... On the other hand, I imagine that your wife made other food besides dip for dinner last night, why not just focus on the positive and ignore the dip? I'm ASSuming that everyone else in the house likes the dip and you are out numbered. If your wife and kids really like the dip, let them have it on occasion as a sign of your benevolence. As long as it doesn't get out of hand that is. Pick your battles, your highness, a side dish served every once in a while, isn't a proper motivation to go to war imho.

Too long-winded. Try: don't piss off the keeper of thy nookie over something so insignificant.

Nice Tig. I guess I shouldn't get so bent out of shape about it, I'm not really sure why it pissed me off so bad. Either way, I made my own and now it's over. For me anyway, she's pretty much mad at me now, looks like the weekend's hosed. Dammit. I apologized and we talked, I'll just have to wait for her to get over it now.

Seriously, honestly, what would upset me in your case, would be the seeming utter disregard for my opinion/feelings.:idk:

I can totally relate to your frustration because I do this to Erik and he does it to me. I think she should compromise by making a smaller portion for you without the rotel, then the rest with if that is the way everyone else wants (or how she insists). At least this is what we do.

She's pissed because you made your own dip?

Sounds like you need to give her a big cup of shut the fuck up.

I am going to go out on a limb and say ulu will still have a whoha in a week and that's the real cause

I'm a fan of good colby jack and bacon. Goes good with fresh toasted sourdough bread.
