Loyal Jew: Is that how you think of your wife? Like a washing machine? With a cooking machine feature on the side?
[No, I don’t really think you do. But you were just asking for it with that comment :)]
If washing machines had personalities and goals and dreams and individuality beyond being EnergyStar-rated and expensive or cheap and stacking or being side-by-side with the dryer, then okay, maybe. But you know that there’s only so much you can check out about someone to predict what an actual, non-washing machine girl will be like.
If someone checked me out and called my parents and teachers and friends etc etc, they wouldn’t come out with the foggiest flipping CLUE of what I’m like.
