    Dude, this is a funny story about his wife learning to play games. It’s not making fun of her. It’s having fun with the situation. Couples frequently have fun stories about each other that are about mistakes that showed how much they cared. This one is about a wife who cared about learning to play video games enough that they continued even while struggling with controls, and their spouse who noticed their frustration and created a tool to help them. There’s no mocking happening.

        I like how “not malicious” is boring in your mind. You’ve got something wrong with you.

          It’s boring because it’s a falsehood. You’re malicious, thinking your wives are idiots. I’m another man, telling you men, that you’re a bunch of idiots. I’m actually smarter than you, and you hate it. I already know my IQ and can beat yours because mine is way beyond posting “the wife” memes. As a matter of fact, I’m only here because I’m studying you computer nerd people and entering your responses into a database. I suppose I could be nice and thank you for your response, but you’re such a boring idiot that had no imagination as a child that I really have nothing else to say. When you were a child you had no imagination and you were boring. Now, here you are!

            How is her not knowing something thinking that she’s an idiot? Helping her learn is the opposite of that. It’s recognizing she’s capable of learning it and helping her. Have you ever learned a new skill and not had muscle memory for it yet? It takes effort and time.

            Also, you aren’t smarter than me. You may believe that, but if you’re incapable of recognizing that she is learning and this is helpful, then you aren’t very smart.

              I’m way smarter than you. I know this because of what you just said, which is kind of not smart. Also, are you a husband or a wife? And what part of this meme is communicating anything useful about learning to anyone? It’s just trash posted to the internet. You also make assumptions. You assume husbands teach wives things and that this meme is about husbands teaching wives. You got yourself into a really huge loop you created all on your own, here. I mean, let’s say you’re smart. If you were, you might not have written the stupid comment you wrote.
