What would you do?

When your significant other spills a cup of coffee offer her Kobo eReader would you 
a. Keep posting on answerMug? 
b. Tell her to be quiet because you're concentrating. 
c. Ask if she realises how much those things cost?
d. Help her to clean it up? 

Yes, it happened about 15 minutes ago. Since I am still capable of posting this topic you can work out what I did, but what would YOU do?

  • I'd help her to clean up the mess and try to salvage the reader.

  • It was one of the waterproof models, Flo, so once we got cleaned up she's back to reading quite happily. Late breakfast in Didgeville today.

  • It's OK. She told me later it was ginger tea. Since the thing is working fine I guess it was tea proof.

  • Fortunately I gave her a hand. She's tougher than me and if I'd kept typing it would have been verrry painful.

  • Let her deal with her problem. Scrolling thru Answermug takes focus.  This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at February 23, 2017 3:45 PM MST

  • Clearly you haven't met the Didgina. She's frightening.

    Not Flo is very considerate and very lucky. His wife hasn't hit that point in their marriage where she doesn't want him anywhere near her things because she knows he's just going to make things worse. 


    I'd do what you did Didge.

  • Not Flo got on so well with his ex that he carries her photograph around to frighten children. He even posts it on line from time to time to frighten ME.

  • I think the answer would be determined by how hard the spouse hits perhaps?
