My wife`s grandmother was one.She ruled the roost.Had three daughters that she would not let marry or leave the house.They all kissed her ass and waited on her like she was a queen..She also had 4 sons who were at her beck and call,including my FIL.There was one who told her to fugg off and another daughter who got married,but was a clone of the old bitch.
My wife thought that was how husbands were supposed to act.She laid down the law before we got married,except I did not go along with it.I told her before we married,I hunt,fish and do chit with my friends and nothing will change that.She was in shock but accepted it.Every once in a while she will get a bug up her ass and test me.I tell her any time she wants to hit the road,don`t let the door hit you on the ass. She pouts for a day and then is nice again.
That is a great line, when your Princess threatens to leave. "Don't let the door bump you on the ass on the way out."
I have used it more than once. That one line will shut 'em up for about a year.
