Battle of the sexes: Round 3

GF likes these type of blog posts more than anyone. She basically told me to do another "battle of the sexes." If you missed out on either of the first two, you can read them here and here.

When she's used to eating dinner: 6:00pm
When I'm used to eating dinner: 7:30pm

Her bedtime: After 9:00pm - she absolutely refuses to go to sleep before nine
My bedtime: Anytime I want - I'm probably sleeping as you read this

The movie I most regret not seeing in theaters last year: American Hustle
The movie she most regrets not seeing in theaters last year: Frozen

My response when the kitchen light burned out: "I'll take care of it! Just find me a stool or give me a boost."
Her response when the kitchen light burned out: "Call the maintenance guy."

How she shops for groceries: Compare prices, find the best deal, examine labels for ingredients/additives
How I shop for groceries: Buy the stuff that tasted good before; if no precedent exists, grab the first thing you see

How long it takes her to shop: 2 hours (because of all the examining and comparing)
How long it takes me to shop: 1 1/2 hours (I never remember where to find stuff, so I'm not much quicker)

Her pet of choice: Medium-sized dog, like a lab


My pet of choice: Kitty!


What I want from a movie/book: Good storytelling with fascinating characters
What she wants from a movie/book: A happy ending (she refuses to read The Hunger Games or The Fault in Our Stars)

My ideal places to live: Northern California, Portland, Austin, Australia
Her ideal places to live: Alaska, Canada, Norway, Sweden (this from the woman who always complains how cold she is)

What she forgets when we visit each others parents: Water bottle, chapstick, and glasses
What I forget when we visit each others parents: Clothing

Her least favorite people: People who are anti-vaccine/believe vaccines cause autism ("I hope Jenny McCarthy gets herpes! No, that's mean. What's something that is nasty, but goes away easily? Food poisoning! I hope she gets food poisoning!")
My least favorite people: Bicyclists (two incidents last week really reaffirmed my hatred for them)

The only activity I curse frequently during: Sports
The only activity she curses the (most) frequently during: Driving

My average rate of curse words while watching sports: 20 per hour
Her average rate of curse words while driving: 125 per hour
